Yeah, its looking like the 2600K will be a good bointer and great for 3D01.

After the dust settles will that mean anything with the new Bot ?

Splave for you it might not mean much, because your wprime scores are up the roof, but for other general overclockers like me, 2600k's wprime 32m and wprime 1024m will get/is getting good boints in the 4 core category.

Edit : Looks like I was mistaken, its lagging way behind, Oh, its efficiency is showing in superpi/pifast but lagging way behind in wprime

[Neuromancer]

For wprime 1024M the 2600K with crappy RAM performs 2.5 seconds slower than the BEST i7 920 both at 5.288

Not sure how much mem makes a differnce in wprime. Triple channel might be huge, but all the submissions so far on the 2600K are at 1600-1800 8-8-8 or 9-9-9

Once guys learn to tune them up... I think we will see better efficiency.

TBH I am surprised it is that close though. What surprises me more is that the 2500K is holding its own against the 2600K in pifast and spi. I thought cache was king for those short tests.

^me too

Well my 2500K chip just arrived. I gotta run out though so it wont be getting installed till tomorrow :(

Hopefully ASUS has a the CPUPLL overvolt option in the new BIOS.

It is an ES so keeping my Fingers crossed with the BIOS update I might really be able to smack it around

Let me know how you make out with what ever board you are using.
I just got my 2600K

Batch # L040B705

Figure we might as well start early trying to team bin these batch numbers ..........

Going with a ATX instead of a Micro now .....

Been doing a lot of reading but so far liking the UD5 for single card and the UD7 for multiple cards

UD7 has ther 16x slots effed up IMO 16x16x8x8x

I would have thought it would have been better to stager them for two card set ups giving them some breathing room

From what Ive seen, you should have a good batch. The L040Bs seem to do well, and yours is center of the wafer as long as nothing has changed with Intel's batch codes.

Kool .............

Can't wait to get going !

[Hondacity]

mine is L040HCED
