I`ve got a new chip too, its made in costa rica FPO/Batch 3708B259...same like raist86. Well, the performance not that bad. Can overclock quite high. Current stable at 390 x 9 1.45v vdrop to 1.43 ...4:5 ram ratio vdimm 2.1 487mhz x 2 ddr975 5-5-5-15 on DFI infinity p-965s.

My highest so far with this processor is at 410fsb 1.475v core. Benchable but not orthos/prime stable, stress test failed after 5 mins.

Reis,

That batch is from costa rica rite. What is the voltage on the processor box. I think it is one of the newer batches. It should do 3ghz without any problem i guess. Couldnt find any archive abt the batch number on the internet. The only way to find out is to overclock it once yr GC arrives.

Do let us know the results of your overclock!! Good luck!

Made in Malaysia? Hmm funny...Mine starts with 3 also and its from Costa Rica. Weird.



I do have that problem initially before doing any overclocking, CPUZ shows multi at 6. After a few refresh and re run cpuz, it shows the normal settings.
