3930K new stepping

[MisterMagoo]

I think he means that C1 or C2 don't really matter. They are both great cpu's.

Finding a 3930K is a great achievement! (C1 or C2) I ordered 1 on 29 December and never got 1. Contacted the shop and they told me they will get them early march....
Canceled my order and went to another shop that had a 3960X in stock

Lol thats exactly what I did, was tired of waiting and went for the X.

@ Andressergio, installed the pump last night. I cant really see any difference at all in temps, and have no way to check the flow rates. If your pump is working fine no need to replace it with this. Only thing I see it being better for is taking up less space if you are working inside a case.

I just have the standard mcp355, its fine but not 1/2 inch. The 655 has been a great pump, seems to be well built. Has lasted a long time running for a couple years now.

Theres lots of 3930K stock in Norway, but its a small country so not a lot of people buy that kind of hardware. I'm happy though

If I were into conpsiracy theories, I'd say the lag in 3930K restocking is a ploy to push more 3960X sales

i believe what u r saying its true 2 weeks no chip is very weird

[donmarkoni]

Got one, finally...

[l0ud_sil3nc3]

Got one, finally...

nice man, so that is a C2?

[MisterMagoo]

Got one, finally...

Stable at that vCore? Very nice.

[OC Nub]

Congrats! Looks like you got a nice chip.

@donmarconi
Congrats! Nice charts, but where are some highres pics of the box and CPU?
Where did You get Your 3930KC2? And what did You pay?

wow someone is happy in serbia right now. high numbers, and they're all round numbers too. congratulations. you win the signature contest!

this chip is super late, so it better perform well

[kintaro]

C1 or C2 really matter regarding overclokcing?

[Viss]

C2 avaiable here in NL today

I need to know too!!!

Thanks! C2 it is.

Pretty stable, but it's too early to say. Thanks!

Congrats! Looks like you got a nice chip.

Thanks mate! I'm very happy with it. Finally I got above the average CPU.

Just a few pictures...


No box for CPU, it came wrapped in a paper. Source and price will need to stay undisclosed.

Hehehe... Thanks! I like round numbers. It is very good IMHO, 5GHz at low volts, can do 5.2GHz on water.

Compared to few POS C1 samples around here, it does matter, but it's just IMO.

[andressergio]

so why not in the US still ?

[c22]

GOD, this new stepping is the last thing Im waiting for :S Hope they make it fast to the stores, RIVE is waiting :S

3930K: L149B708 (C2). Very simular to my rather avarage C1 chip. Cooled by SS.

very nice chip inmo

I think nothing different between C1 and C2 stepping seem like still same on ocing result . any tested with BCLK and Gen 3 on C2 ? I want to see how many different with C1
