The E0 Q9550 SLB9V thread (finally!)

[IlludiumQ36]

Also as of 10/08 Newegg.com has started shipping E0's. Everyone that ordered after 10/08 so far that I've talked to has a E0.. It's probably not a For sure thing with Newegg, as they ship from all over. but They have moved plenty. as the Q9550 seems like the New Q6600.

Good Luck Guys!

I wish that were the case. I ordered 2 9550's last Friday and got 1-E0 and 1-C1. The C1 blows. In identically configured systems, it's 12-16° hotter than the E0 at load and I can't get it higher than 3.5 due to heat more so than stability. I've lapped and reseated just to be sure - no change in temps.

My new q9550:

That is sweet. Can you share your settings? I have the same chip and motherboard in my office system and I'm coming up a bit short(can't prime past 440FSB).
