Venice 3000+ stepping

[omritt]

Hello, I'm buying a new computer and I can buy a venice 3000+ with the following stepping: BW-E6 0535EPIW. Anyone knows something about this stepping/production week?
I appreciate your help!

those are the brand new E6 stepping venices. That one was made in like early sept. or something like that, so its pretty new. Should OC well.

Thanks for the answer!
Does anyone knows something about this week?
Are ALL new E6 venices good for OC?

i had a e6 3000+ 0530CPFW and i got it as far as 2.6ghz @ 1.65v. most of them can do 2.4ghz easily so YMMV. good luck with your oc.

Well but not as well as the E3 stepping Venice.

yeah, you will have a better chance at a good oc with a E3. 2.6@ 1.65v is not a very good oc. most e3's get 27. @1.55v.

Thanks,
So you say that the lastest weeks of the venice (E6) are not good OCers?
Should I try to find an E3 or go with that one?
Thanks again!

Try and find an E3 if you can.

I recently purchased a Venice 3000+ and cpu-z says that it is revision DH-E3. Is this what people are talking about?

Can anyone suggest a place where you can still buy e3 chips? The only e3's I could find are retail packages. I was hoping to get one OEM. eWiz used to sell them, but I don't see it on their site anymore. However you can get the 3500+ Venice e6 very cheap these days. Anyone know how these chips OC?
