i remember when everybody was talking about week 20 P 700's. How are the current ones doing. I havn't had the time to mess around with my computer lately but now that christmas break is rolling around i'm thinking about an upgrade. A 700 @ 1050 sounds really good. So if anybody has a late week P3 let me know how well it overclocked. Please only serious replys. I know a lot of people are prone to BS.
Thanks

THey all work really good, almost every one now will hit 933mhz (at 1.65-1.85). Get a cC0 if you can find one, but the newer cB0's work great too. 1050mhz is probably only going to happen if you get a cC0 though.

I just ordered a 700e cc0 for $206 shipped. I'm assuming I'll have pretty good luck with it. The guy I talked to said they all hit 933 at default and 8 out of 10 hit 1ghz at default voltage. That was his last batch.

Thanks, where did you get it from, and what i guess I was asking is: is there anyone who recieved a cC0 that wasn't a guarenteed one, i don't want to spend more than $160. Maybe I should wait until after christmas, when they are cheaper and the resellers will be running low on cB0's. Suggestions on what to do appreciated.

I don't even think you can find a new cb0 for under $160. So good luck.

Yep, $148 on pricewatch. You will get a cA2 or cBo and pay fun shipping charges. Oh, those are OEM too, so there is a likelyhood they have already been tested.

i know all abot the shipping charges, and that they are oem, i don't care about that, i don't even care if they have been tested just as long as i could possible get 1 ghz out of them.
