hey all, its been a while since the E0 revision of the e8xxx cpus have been released, & just wanna know if most of the e8400s in the market now are E0 revisions? i'll be purchasing one in the next month so when rest assured that it'll be highly likely i'll be recieving an E0 revision (its an actual revision not just a temporary stepping correct?).

Thanks in advance.:)

I'm sure there will still be a couple of retailers that carry the original C0 revision. I think the E0s are more widespread now but the C0s are likely still mixed in there.

Don't worry about the E0's. My C0 clocks to 4.025Ghz at 1.20v, LLC enabled, NB 1.5v, CPU & PCI-e speed spectrum disabled.

Got an E0 five weeks ago from Newegg. I think you can be fairly confident in expecting an E0 now...

its not just the overclocking, the E0 revision also has some new features included. Not very big i know, but if im paying new i expect to get the latest.:)

The only way the ensure you're getting an E0 stepping is to buy the E8600 as they're only made in E0 steppings.:)

Tank Guys can guarantee an E0 E8400, but at a price premium. You can buy an E8500 from Newegg for that price, and be 90% sure that it's an E0.
