Another new bios and wow

Good, but still not good enough to make massman's dreams come true, lol.

so first ES cut silicon that does 6.2ghz 6c/12t falls short?! dear god...

massman's dream is for Wolfdale to get beaten in 01

Anyways that's awesome stuff Peter. The clock speeds aren't much of a shock to me because it's 32nm, and to put it in perspective, new product launches always bring exciting numbers.

But what's truly beautiful about this are the temps and voltages that you're using. That's what we want, the numbers in CPU-Z be damned.

very interesting

will evga make a new mobo for this cpu, or the classified will remain the top?

Didnt take long for these images to appear on XS... http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=234592

Great great great
Now it's time for wprime?

[road-runner]

I guess I need to just send the 975 back when it gets here Friday...

well if it benches vantage at 5.9 it can likely bench 01 at 6.0. which brings up another question: what about clocks with HT/cores disabled?
Anyways, by production silicon we might actually see wolfdale have some competition in 01 at least, and certainly in 1M.

So Sham, does this chip exhibit any of the oddities associated with bloomfield like voltage holes and odd current behaviour?

Congrats and thanks for showing us this, Peter. Absolutely incredible. I'll start saving for this chip as asap.

These chips will rock the bot, superi1m - wprime - 3dmark06 - you name it Even Pifast.
