I would just go for the 2700 or 2600(333) or if you are very lucky a 2400 with the AIUGB stepping. The price premium for the 2800 is just to darn high.
What's a little extra money when you are addicted to the art of overclocking
Anyway, the 2700 I had was stable only to around 2360 or so on air (slk-800) and without trying anything higher yet, the 2800 is stable right out of the box at 2,470 on air at 1.9v. temp reporting on 8k9a2+ is 35.5 degrees. So not bad for a start. This thing should really fly with some better cooling.
Maybe its "a little extra money" when you are able to buy an XP2700+ and a little later an XP2800+ but not everyone is in the same boat as you financially!
