    Overclocking seems to be pretty similar to AMD now, with raising the bus speed and keeping the HT / QPI in some stable boundary.

    They're authorized leakers - inside connections. When the retail hits, we will get see how close the real boards are to the leaked boards.

    LOL no...

    Alot of retail stores sells before the date. Distributors also got the stuff in advance. Some are waiting on the release date. Some just sell if they can.

    You can buy i7 now here aswell in some stores. One store I checked had 100 920, 10 940 and 2 965.

    And another one 25 965, 471 920 and 196 940.

    Must be alot of insiders eh?

    The 6X on the memory multiplier is nice to know, and if I follow the logic ... the doubled frequency has been accounted for in the Gigabyte BIOS, i.e. DDR3-1333 would be 10x with a BCLK of 133. Meaning that for a 4G target OC with a BCLK of 200 MHz for a i7 920 one could get memory to fit within this range with known stability, 6x200 1200 so DDR3-1333 would be fine or you would have some room to OC memory with a multi of 8 or you could use DDR2-1600 and work from there fine as well.

    Thanks for the screens...
