Lucky me managed to get hold of brand new sealed Core i7 920 3845B260 D0 stepping batch cpu. This 3845 gem batch will definitely beat my other 4x i7 920 (3836A756 C0 gem and 3851A368 D0 gems) even without testing I can tell

Time to sell off my older i7 920 cpus I suspect

...

Just bought this cpu 2nd hand, nice clocker apparently - Xeon W3540 3845B010

On Asus P6T6 WS Revolution with 0007 beta bios. Default AUTO vcore in bios reports = 1.088v. Manually need to set vcore to 1.10625v to get 1.088v vcore reported in bios.

...

Can't help myself 2x i7 920 3851A368 D0 and 1x W3520 3845A935 D0 cpus

• 1st i7 920 D0 results > http://i4memory.com/f80/first-i7-920...results-17703/
• 2nd i7 920 D0 results > http://i4memory.com/f80/second-i7-92...results-17969/

W3520...

Nearly time to start playing with Core i7 / X58 and triple channel memory

CPUs arrived a few days back so now just waiting on X58 motherboards to arrive from generous manufacturers

2x i7 920 - batch = 3836A756

...

E8600 E0 stepping cpus landed in Australia around 5 weeks ago, but I waited around 3 weeks before I decided to try them out.

Rex at http://pcmaniacs.com.au still has E8600 with Q820A599 batches so thought I'd go a bit crazy

All 5x E8600 are Q820A599 SLB9L 07/15/2008
