You know its just a matter of time bro. The reason the Empire issued that warpcore tech to you first, your prototype Warbird sports the Breen plasma coolant.

Since my i7 975 arrived as a paperweight, I had to install the i7 950.
I have all the luck with the DOA shit......

Anyhow, I just got windows up and running with the i7 950 last night. I have it air cooled with a Mugen II cooler and it runs 4.1 GHz with 1.2v, 4.46 GHz with 1.34v. I have only tinkered with it for about 2 hours. I haven't run any benches, and I only ran prime for a short time to get a feel for general stability. Not bad on air cooling so far. Probably not a"cherry chip" but it's a decent one. I'm sure it will like the SS.

I have no time. :(

From my experience's so far with my 950 I can tell you I will not even consider a 975. This chip just continues to blow my mind (and the bot).

trouble with these bloody CPUs is that multi
Intel's even multies are pretty buggy :(
you should use 23x instead for OCing. It will probably yield better results
