you sound like you are new at overclocking and you probably have not done a search of this forum to see how high of overclock you can expect from a Q6600...first of all, you can check my signature...now, here is a post from a guy who is getting good success from his "G0" Q6600...there are success stories all over this forum...just do the work to find out.

So far, 3.610 Ghz (401x9) stable on AIR at 1.38 vcore real (1.4250v bios).

FWIW there is a Q6600 G0 OC'ing thread. Having said that I'll give you some prelim results here as I don't think I've finished pushing things enough yet to post there. I have my ClubIT L723A841 @ 3.8GHz Prime stable w/1.48V loaded on water in Abit IP35 Pro. I think the guy with the DS3 waiting on P5K Premium with the same stepping is in for a pleasant surprise.

And yeah, agree with Ace-a-Rue, I don't think there are many duds. With the luck I normally have I would have one.

ClubIT G0 came today, one day after I ordered 3-5 day shipping. I don't know about the guy slamming ClubIT, rated like 9.8 on resellerratings.com, and schmoozing Tankguys. Mine came in a day, no waiting in line for a week. ClubIT did me right.

SLACR L721A814 7/31/07

Won't be able to install/test until 8-17 build.

**SafeFire** · 08-10-2007, 11:40 AM

Meh. Just got a B3 from Getmore.dk

**NKD** · 08-10-2007, 12:05 PM

i dont think getting a g0 from clubit should be any different than getting a g0 from anywhere else. they should all overclock same, i really think that g0 stepping is really overclockers dream so far, i didnt see many people overclocking quads to 3.8 on air or even on water before this stepping, i ended up ordering one from clubit.com, and i will update when i get it.

I agree with you, but I understand some concern about which vendor since different retailers have had different batches, so potentially the vendor could matter. Not a real concern IMO since so far it really doesn't seem to matter what batch as long as it's G0, as you said.

Too bad I can't play with it, hafta sell my Q6700 first :/ Don't wanna get stuck with 2 opened CPU's and can't sell either of them lol.

Batch L724A760
Pack date: 7/27

Just got mine from Tankguys today as well. Same batch number and packing date. Can't use it until I get my DFI P35-T2R. Thankfully, I was the 5th person to order from motherboardpro out of their initial stock of 30. And last I checked they only had 2 left.

**Tarowah** · 08-10-2007, 02:57 PM

I just installed my Q6600 that I ordered from Tankguys and it is as follows.

L724A760
Pack Date 7/27/07

Core Temp vid is 1.2625v

Running at stock speeds right now, the temps are way off because the chip is running cooler than room temp, but we all knew that.

I've received my 18 from ClubIT, still waiting on my 6 from tankguys. I've got all L723A841s from CIT as of yet. Not sure what TG is sending....or when !?!

18???? Are you a reseller or something?

**NoSoMo** · 08-10-2007, 04:45 PM

Just got an email from tankguys, seems like they were selling vaporware.

Canceling my 6.
My first and last time ordering from them, seems like they need to get it together a little better.

What are you talking about TG is a small business and only bought enough to cover pre-orders over a month in advance and then to have a little extra left over. If you missed the boat that's your own fault - not theirs.

Never answered the question, are you a reseller trying to make money?

Seems dumb to come on a forum saying you tried to buy 24 cpu's when many here are wanting them.

**beppe** · 08-10-2007, 05:23 PM

i got this letter tonight from tankguys

The comments for your order are

Our shipment of Q6600�s arrived tonight, as planned. Despite our being told
they were G0�s, all of them were B3�s. As such, we have been forced to delay
shipping to customers until we can source more confirmed G0�s.

We have been working extremely hard to get these chips in as quickly as we can,
and have done everything we can to keep you updated as changes happen.

Given this incredibly disappointing turn of events, we will refrain from posting
any ETA until we have G0�s in hand, so we can absolutely confirm a ship date.

We are extremely sorry about this delay, and we will continue to work extremely
hard to secure the G0�s, as promised.

We will likely be swamped with e-mails and questions, so please bear with us if
we are slow to respond.

Your order has been updated to the following status.

New status: Back Order [PAID]

Please reply to this email if you have any questions.

**Ace-a-Rue** · 08-10-2007, 05:41 PM

yeah...disappointing but they are above board and they communicate to their customers...that means ALOT in my book!

they are at the bequest of their distributor....sounds like the distributor doesn't know what they are doing..or..they are short changing TG's!

**NKD** · 08-10-2007, 05:48 PM

wow tankguys are trying very hard, and i feel really bad for everyone and even tankguys, its not easy being screwed over. i really dont know where the heck clubit is getting all these g0's from, they seem to have them instock everyother day. they must have more connections i guess.

**Ace-a-Rue** · 08-10-2007, 05:54 PM

small businesses have less clout than the bigger ones.

**ocZZZ** · 08-10-2007, 06:01 PM

wow, my g0 is running HOT. I am doing 3.5ghz with 1.35v and its running at 74c on my tuniq :/

**Ace-a-Rue** · 08-10-2007, 06:07 PM

i presume you are priming.

**ocZZZ** · 08-10-2007, 06:14 PM

yes, actually running at 3.6ghz with 1.375v now with 78c full load :/

Yikes. Maybe I shouldn't be so disappointed about my unopened B3 and just give it a shot. Still, 3.6GHz is pretty high. You might want to ease up on it before it starts burning.
