I just got my new 4170 can you help me ID this cpu.
look at how cpuz id's it.
what does the 'es' mean?

sorry I had my thinking cap on the floor Mr. Trents.

solved by updating cpu-z at the cpu-z web site not the asus web site.

Seriously, I think it means "Engineering Sample". Ones that were not released to the retail public because they were prototypes in development stages. Gray market stuff.

open your cpuz and compare, i show no ht link nor cpu/nb speeds.
and look at the id line and the spec line.

Where did you get this thing from _____? Those engineering samples can be a gold mine for overclockers (especially, extreme overclockers) but can be kind of unstable is my understanding. Supposedly, they are often able to tolerate considerably higher voltages than their more refined retail progeny.

Yeah if you want the rat stuffz mR. C_D...get an updated version of CPUz and not the version 1.57. Hehehe.

Secret_RGone....ster.
 
translated from the original dialect: "rat stuffz" means "right stuff" for those of you who haven't spent time down there.
 
so, along with the secret stuff i have to get the updated stuff?
Rgone, Trents and I all live in places where or minds mold over rather quickly....

And I have the additional problem of not enough ultra violet to kill the mold.
