I just hope the b3's when they are released hit 3.0ghz out the gate on stock cooler. If that is the case we can hope for around 3.2 which would be a great step up form the 2.6ish we are seeing.
I wish you luck dave as we all know it comes and goes and for sure takes alot more to clock one of these then your ordinary q6600.
I did notice my cpu needs .03 more vcore to run 246 more mhz on the nb at same cpu clock. I guess the reason for the vcore isn't just to control the cpu clockability but to also control the nb clocking which doesn't make much since if you as me the nb vid should be used for that but the more strain you put on the cpu the more power it needs...
I just wish we had a nice bios modder around here helping us even if it was in a different language it would do wonders I'm sure as I remember very much so on a few platforms that just the modded bios could give you around 100mhz on the older cpus...
I think if there was a way to X out core 3 we could see alot better numbers even tho the multi threaded apps would lose on there part.
so where is cheaper ?Originally Posted by KTE
BTW Newegg is expensive for me too...
