wow very good I'm playing with the e8200 Idea at the moment I am seeing them do 570 fsb on air. If thats true I might buy it, I'm also looking at a x3220 and a e8400. Im mulling it over. My X3210 is doing 3.8ghz on air all 4 cores at 1.40v so with a higher x9 multipler I could do 4.0ghz on on air with a x3220 I'm betting.

Folks, any rough guess how high stable speed could I squeeze out from Asus Blitz Formula, E8400, Corsair TwinX8500 (1066MHz)? The system is water cooled with Zalman Reserator 2 (northbridge, cpu). Is it realistic to hope for 4GHz 24/7 ?

E8400 on the way Ahhh held out but finally couldn't resist, not sure if i'm gonna keep it after I play with it a while or keep my xeon quad. I'm so ashamed I'm intels crack whore

~4000-4100mhz i guess..

Surely more? I did 4gig 24/7 on my 6850 @ 1.5V.

Weeeeeee! I just got my hands on an E8400 this morning(thinks: gotta change my sig). Too bad I still need a couple more parts to finish my new rig. :ohwell:

Fitseries3 · Jan 20, 2008

the first batch of the wolfdales seem to be a bit hot...
so i`m saying 4-4.1 with low Vcore...
right now i choose the 24/7 clocks of 4.2ghz @ 1.4Vcore..

giorgos th. · Jan 20, 2008

and some 3D one run results testing at 1.496Vcore load..
Safe frequency was 4405mhz for the big ones and 4504mhz for aquamark.

fit, can you keep these posts in the buy/sell section please.

one thing i seem to have gathered from reading the aussie threads.. they seem to come with a lesser stock cooler than the 6xxx series chips.. more celery like..

Gotta say thats amazing at 1.4V ...very nice! :toast:

i have just read a suggestion that intel will limit the availability of the new 45nm parts for quite some time so as not to knock the sales of the older parts.. in essence they peform too well and intel will only be competing against its self so to speak..

i have one on pre-order.. those holding back waiting for price drops are gonna be disappointed i recon.. it aint gonna happen as long as intel wish to keep selling the older parts..

Now we are getting glimps of what the world with just intel will be like with no AMD

absolutely.. i also believe the not entirely substantiated "news" i just mentioned..

we already know they are holding back the quads.. now it seems the duals will be in short supply..

trog100 · Jan 21, 2008

so what do we know so far..

they clock well.. over 4 gig easy on air..

the 8200.. why bother.. the 6750 will do just as well..

the 8400 is the sweet spot for most people..

the 8500 is probably worth it to extreme overclockers.. benchers..

they run a little hotter when volted than perhaps hoped for..

they come with a micky mouse celeron type cooler..

they might well be in short supply for quite some time..

the price aint likely to drop..

I reckon you have it spot on there.....just one thing I think I would add, perhaps the Wolfdale prices will drop a little once the Yorkfields are released March/April time so as there is no conflict between the two, if you look at the recommended price for the lowest Yorkfiled and compare that with the 8500 it's close stuff (well pretty close).

giorgos th. · Jan 21, 2008

Gave away my first 8500,awaiting for the second (and better lets hope..)
And some final results playing with the Q740A493T.

Holly · Jan 21, 2008

Whatever, I'd change my E6300 for this E8400 any time.
TBH Let's hope AMD shows some competitive CPUs very soon (price drops wise) otherwise they might get into serious troubles (after spending lots $$$ for ATI) and we won't be able to get neither cheap CPUs neither cheap GPUs...

giorgos: what was wrong with your 1st one?
