She's quite impressive so far.


Anyhow, i guess this almost basically gaurentee's a 3.6ghz QUAD. If your on the market for one.

You see thats what ive been getting scared at.

This is my third quad. The first is a Xeon X3220 which maxes at around 3.7Ghz with a lot of voltage tho. Its not super stable as well. @ 3.6 i need about 1.57V in bios to boot up to hold. This is also something i dont like very much.

My second quad which is another Xeon 3210, has a fsb max of around 430fsb. She wont do 3.6ghz at all, and i was kinda sad about this.

My final Quad which is this one does in fact do 3.6ghz @ 1.55 Bios voltage, and she's prime stable. Which is extremely hard for a Quad @ 3.6ghz.

So i took a gamble at frys because i needed another quadcore, And if you guys want a 3.6ghz hitting quad, This batch will do it.

That is what im trying to tell you guys. So the next quad i think i'll be picking up is in september, when the g0 Steppings come out with a lower TDP.

And then its onto Penryn V8 when they come out.
