I saw his a while back and thought it looked like a nice chip, and fortunately I now have one that is very similar.

The big question with Gulftowns is... how good is the IMC? I suppose even if the IMC isn't golden (mine isn't), the cores still are, like mine. I'd say any Gulftown that can do 4.5GHz at or below 1.35v (real) is golden. You should get 5GHz with 6 threads, definitely... if not with HT. Very interested to see how you get on with it.
