    Quick run at 4.7Ghz with my 2500k L040B354 on Asus P8P67 Deluxe. This is with watercooling with 26C room temp.

    **EDIT** GAH! Gotta turn speedstep off. This was run at 47x100 at 1.4V.

    so ok let me see if i follow this correctly.
    $279.99+tax = +/- $297USD depending on state.
    lets say some of us wasted $20 on gas.

    but seeing how hilarious you guys are on the forum and what not,
    that may be worth the trip itself, i was going to drive to yonkers this morning
    but i dont think i'd have bumped into anyone from here.

    it was amazing when i used to check this morning around 9/10am still and the 2600K went like hotcakes in front of my eyes
    then there was like 8 2500K in yonkers and they were gone by 11am.
    i guess i didnt drive cause the mobo i'd like was not available at that
    microcenter, i was seriously thinking of picking up a set just to resell after
    i tested it

    You need to get the latest CPU-Z, supposedly the older version isn't reading the vcore correctly on SB.
