Venice E4 Stepping

[Tangerines]

From the Anandtech Article:

The E4 stepping has generally been reserved for San Diego, Venus, and Troy cores in the past, but the new stepping may steal some of the limelight away from AMD's exceptional Opteron 939 Venus since only the cache sizes are different now.

Does this mean that the new Venice E4's will be better overclockers than the earlier steppings?

 

[Mogadon]

It may do, alot of people have been quick to denounce them due to the E6's lacklustre overclocking performance. We will see as the chips begin to find their way into people's systems.

The 3200 E4 cores are in stock at Zipzoomfly. Who's going to be the first to buy one and tell us how it clocks?

It would be sweet if these will clock like the 3700's to around 2.8ghz air

 

[Greenman]

Be even sweeter if they clock to 3ghz like the 146's.
