X2 3800+ Just arrived!

[Hail The Brain Slug]

My X2 3800+ from Newegg arrived today! It's an 0605, but I can't test it until after I get back home later. Anyone have any overclocking results with 0605 X2's? I've heard the 06xx X2's are some of the best overclocking ones yet, but I'm sceptical until I get to test mine out.

Yeah! My day will be great.

Also, give us a picture or EVERYTHING on the IHS.

Batch number [wafer number] is important too..

Well, seems I was a little hasty and forgot to get the other info. Oh well!

What is a safe load temp for the CPU? Topping out at 44C stock on a Ninja.

I reapplied the ceramique, and also got a gander at the numbers. It's an 0605 GPMW.

3800+ x-2 is safe anything under 60C recommended daily use you dont want it to go over 53C on a warm day. So if yours is 42C id say you are in the clear =P

I've got it at 2.6 GHz 1.35v, topping around 48C running dual prime95. Hope it makes 24 hours!

So, just to clarify something, 0605 means week 06 in year 05?

Very very nice.

You'll likely get 2.8 GHz outta her if you bump up vcore later.
