Core i7 920 rev D0 stepping 5 :)

[Splave]

I didnt say they never clock better, I said they never clock like retail. Getting my butt handed to me in this thread, I feel sorry for all of you getting your hopes up. Obviously I hope they clock better. Im stuck at the dreaded 222 bclk, I doubt d0 will reslove this though.

FUGGER told D0 would bring lower temps/power consumption and remember the 965 5.0GHz on air clock? Also the i7 are gonna be found in a laptop soon, with current heat/power consumption it would be totally impossible to use such CPU. Remember Q6600 was it B2 or B3 that was the hottest running and such improvement G0 brought? Intel can do very drastic improvements sometimes with a new stepping. However max bclock I don't think will change pretty much anything.

That is enough for me to believe D0 will have progressed in these factors. Max clocks I don't think will improve drasticly unless you're the person that don't have enough cooling that is, then these new D0 would allow for higher OC b4 temps are starting to hit back and prolly with slightly lower voltage than before if PC's sample is an average one, so basicly I think D0 will offer most improvement for aircooling users (maybe easier to hit stable 4.0 ~ 4.3GHz clocks on 920) while DICE/LN2 users might not see much higher results than before.

Indeed sir, you are a bastion of negativity. To misquote Donald Sutherland in Kelly's Heroes.

Don't hit me with those negative waves so early in the release of D0.

wow, let it go. You need to check out some Bill Hicks stand up and learn how questioning everything is valid.

Revelations OR Relentless running on loop for about 12 hours should set him straight!

No, I agree. Questioning everything is valid in determining resultant outcomes. However, taking ones personal views (without any determining proofs) and extrapolating to a negative outcome is mere conjecture and opinion and has NO place in the questioning of actual and provable outcomes.

Sooo Sweet.
So why don't we have a hope that the D0 will clock higher ( BCLK 400 and 5ghz on air ) and cooler than the first one 20c ah and also cheaper 125Us.
Who knows someday it happen, just don't hope that you can fly only superman can do that.

400 blck would probably not happen in the i7's, but maybe 300 when they go 32nm? Always the possibility as the process is refined, but let's looks forward to lower temps; i7 the way it is now (D0 or C0) is definitely thermally challenged.
