Whats the max power (wattage) that rev 1.0 UD3P can deliver to cpu? I'm priming 4.5Ghz+ on air and according to Everest chip power consumption peaks at around 220-230W.

IT depends on how cool you keep your vrms - they'll deliver more power when cooler. I had around 250w on my old Q9650 when under load, no special vrm cooling was used, but I did re-mount them with small nuts & bolts rather than push-pins which does help a little.

Yes Andressergio, the USB3P is still going strong and have even run a few decent E4600 benches recently with some resonable success on air. Alas, we have adopted a mum and kitten so my room is not really accessible for loud fans and overclocking right now but plan to go back to it soon, it's just sitting on a bench-board waiting to be thrashed.

E8500 didn't give anything worth mentioning, but I have an E8400 and the old Q9650 which might be worth one final stab. I really want to break the FSB record, and I'm convinced the USB3P could do it with the right chip and some decent NB cooling...
