2.4C @ 3.5GHz 293FSB ... first look over @ HardOCP

[SupermanCK]

Check it out...

This would be the chip to get...

So far its looking good.Can't wait to see what certain steppings bring to the table .Ok,who's gonna be the Billy Goat?,where is PJ or Thugs.

I wish they would have been a little more granular.

3.3 GHz @ default Vcore
3.5 Ghz @ 1.7 Vcore

How far on default? 1.6V? 1.7V is too high for me. I would say that 3.4 GHz is a pretty safe bet.

Some benches would also have been nice.

As they said, the mem ratio's get a little tricky. Lets say 3.4 GHz

12 x 283 FSB = 3.4 GHz
5:4 = DDR453
3:2 = DDR374

My ram wont do DDR453, but 374 is easy.

I have to admit the review was as basic as you could get.A little bit more indepth would have been nice.

 

[SupermanCK]

well...i don't think the guy who has the chip wanted HardOCP to mess with them too much...i mean if it was me...i wouldn't even let them touch it...haha...

but we will see these babies surface real soon...and we will see reviews from our peers then

 

[oldfart]

Yes we will. The 2.6C should also be a good one.

Nice close up pic of that chip.
Still getting quite a few promising reviews it seems.
Wonder if I will get chills when holding a 2.6C

That's pretty amazing, 1ghz+ fsb!!!
