Bad news.

I would like to use the C3 965 at 4GHZ@1,40. I hope that I can get a good batch...

**FlanK3r** · 10-21-2009, 09:42 AM

for internet maybe yes

, but for stability think, upo 4 GHz with C3 u will use 1.475-1.5V

That would be nice. Along with NB @ 2800/3000 at a reasonable voltage and some ddr3 1600 6-6-6 or 1800 7-7-7.

Really nice results PcCI2iminal

I can't wait to get hands on C3 Phenom! I was saving for that upgrade since I got my excellent 940BE!

If things will go well I will also jump on to DDR3 platform.

BTW what is default NB voltage on that CPU? I'm asking because my board lacks regulation for that

Great... Im looking forward to my sample... If these numbers are "normal" my TWKR just got worthless

STill wonder if my Q6600 should be replaced by a Phenom 2 or i7 when I got watercooling, so much to save going amd

well ,i still using my old and good Yorkfield and i will replace soon for a Lynnfield,nothing against Phenom but i prefer Intel

i like Bloomfield but its energy-wasting for me
i will choose Lynnfield cz its everything what i need
cheaper than Bloomfield ,cooler,fast and energy-efficient

Year a cheap i5 might be the best solution for me when I am mostly gaming.

My Q6600 have done well though with 3.6 on air and now 3.75 on water (Not prime stable, but gaming stable^^) Just wonder how much the i5 will go on water, is a i5 better clock for clock than a Q6600 btw?

Yes seems so its a really good pick. Nice result.
