3800+ Or 3700+?
im wondering what i should by, a 3800+ dunno if its 0.13nm or 0.090nm.
so which one will oc the best?
is there ANY chance to reach 3ghz stable with air with any one of them?
wich one will give the most performance for 24/7 use gaming and 3dmark benching?
does any one of them have a "cold bug"? if with what temps?

I think the 3700+ 1mb cache will help you in the long run, but getting 3.0 on air is kinda out there, unless you get a really good core.

The sandy can do 2.8 on air, mine did 2.9 on water, but my mobo was holding me back. Can't really tell you on the 3800 since i don't own one, but look around someone has to have one that you can ask.
