    i got a i7930, will that do?lol i can't see it mattering, its just showing the board can OC, yea different CPu will hit different speeds, nothing new. ES chip none ES chip, max OC is max OC, i am not doing a CPU review were an ES chip's OC might matter.

    BUT yes ES990x seems to OC higher.

    yah man anything that doesn't have ES tacked onto from specific chips where everyone knows there is a big diff.

    Example 990X ES, retails are not matching.

    920ES though retails blast away so not a big deal.

    Here's a nice example of what the board can do with a retail chip.

    Top 5 for Core I7 920 32m pi.
