Ambient is around 15C
Oh and batch is 3003B242
What pleases me the most in the few minutes I have had it that it appears not to be bclck limited as one would expect from a Xtreme CPU.
Actually my 920/930 has a very tough time booting at 220 bclcks nevermind Wprime stable

For some reason this RIIE allow gulftown to easily go past what has been my source of frustration on the Bloomfields, I cannot for the love of it do 225 bclck on the Bloomfields, the Gulftown, this one and the Xeon I had a week ago has no problem
Anyone care to share ideas why that would be?

Tried the 27, 29, or 31x multis at all yet? Would allow you to lower blck, run the chip faster, and keep your memory at it's current speed if you switch to 2:10 if it's unable to run higher with tight timings.

This is moved to the Intel CPU section per request, for everyone to enjoy. And while my mobo is crippled and the replacement won't arrive until Wednesday, I will post some preliminary results with my Gulftown on air later too. My cooling setup is very sinilar to Ed's except that I don't have an AC unit feeding cold air directly into the intake of it.
