I can only provide teaser photos now as I'm currently installing it in the setup I have listed in my specs. I plan on doing extensive overclocking and benching over the weekend as well. For now, enjoy.

I see your in lansing i was just working out their today lol.

But i would like to see how she compares at stock clocks to the 1333mhz fsb c2d's and how she compares to c2q's


also is it just the pic or did they make that heatsink shorter? Copper base or el cheap o all alu. like the E2XXX and E4XXX series?
 
then intel needs to update the TDP for the cpu, since they are still listing it at 65watts. i assume that per same voltage and speed the tdp would fall into the 45-55 watt range..
 
Just got my lapped Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme mounted on it, what a pain. Now I gotta add the 2x 120mm fans to it.

I'll be putting mine under water, just waiting for my boss to leave me alone so I can get some "real work" done.

less heat till you overclock them, then we'll see typical temperatures.

this is where we can use ES's. lookin at the number of a number of site the oced temp results show on avagre about 10c lower. that is both cpus oced to the same speed and voltage,with the same cooling,etc.
