I never check FUD/Inq/DT, last resort if I know the info to be true, or never.

The fact that they have a new one coming rebadging its launch means the current boards have a hardware problem, pretty simple.

Chris, are you sure?
Ask him to post settings or screenshots of benchmarks and the voltages, etc please.
Oh lol, I linked in another thread the discussion about this new board to you lol.

But you already saw it.

Anyway, I wonder if the 'issues to run 3Ghz' are like, 3Ghz unstable, not able to get upto 3Ghz at all (like me) etc. I mean, Im still having problems to get 2.7Ghz without freezing... So I wonder if the board would fix 1) the freezing and 2) eventual the scaling?

How many Volts I throw at this chip, it just doesnt want to do anything above 2.8Ghz. 2.9Ghz I think I got it to boot but almost insta freeze, I dont call that 'it wanted to do something'. And 2.8Ghz is like very fast freezing. And tbh, my I never saw Windows @ 3Ghz.

But the fact Voltage doesnt matter shows for me something else is wrong here. But as I said, whether the new chip would actually get me all the way up there... I would be SO happy, but Im afraid I still have a crap batch and I might instead get maybe 2.8Ghz stable and there it would stop...

Are there any dates known when we might expect this SB? I dont hope it would take another 3 months or so, a month or eventual 2 months ok... But just fast
