    Get the FX-83x0.

    The only difference between the FX-8 and FX-9 series parts is that the FX-9 series has been binned based on a single characteristic: leakage.
    All of the FX-9 series parts have ultra high leakage characteristics which is not desireable for air or water cooling.

    I figured as much, plus the process should be more mature now. However I bought an 8320 8 months ago to put in a C4F system that I sold (yes, C4F, it does work), and I gave it a test run in my Gigabyte 990FXA-UD7 first. IIRC, I couldn't get more than 4.6 out of it without a lot of voltage (I probably took it to 1.55, but can't find my notes anymore).

    I know it's a lottery, and I'm worried about getting another sub-par chip.

    Anyone have any 8350 OC results from a recent batch?
