MM 902258
Package Date : 02/25/09

Anything else you need let me know.
 
you have a D0 stepping -

its going to be good and do 4GHz at around 1.3v

it really is that simple :)
 
Sweet ;)

i found this, though i dont know if it means much but its the same batch as mine =, check out those volts :D

That overclock looks pretty sweet! 4.2GHz on under 1.3V.... hope yours goes just as good!!

Noticed OcUK have the OEM D0's in now, anyone got any results with one yet?

Its only another £5 for the retail version which has 2 years longer warranty and Farcry 2... doubt many OEM's are selling :p

I've got one of these with some 2000mhz OCZ Ram and an x58 ud5 board that'll be gettting clocked within the next few days:D
 
Very pleased with my new 920 D0, got it on thursday and its a great clocker currently priming at 3.8ghz with 1.168v, 4ghz+ will be no problem :)
 
I got mine too today but i cant see the "rev 0" as of first post, i can see all the other info, mine says:-

Revision ?
S-Spec : SLBEJ
FPO/Batch # 3849A772
MM 902258
Package Date : 04/15/09
ver: E63261-001

Received mine from OCUK last week. I started out at 4Ghz/1.3v as that seems pretty much a guaranteed overclock, and I'm slowly working up the clockspeed and down the voltage, running prime for 6 hours each time. So far I'm at 4.2Ghz @ 1.26v, will continue later/tomorrow when I get time!
 
Man these are tempting especially too someone like me whos never really overclock, but dont these things require better cooling and more noisy fans especially at 4ghz?

Im a play it safe/reliable/silent guy :(
 
what do the I7 run on normaly voltage wise i never liked changing the voltage waht would this run at without chaning the voltage ?

i am thinking of upgrading what will i need to run the chip at 3.6 to 4.0 will the normal stock coller keep this thing from burning up and what temps you all geting ?

thanks for any help

Stock cooler won't manage much past 3.2ghz I would imagine

Mine is running on the stock cooler (albeit with decent compound and good airflow in my case) - see 5 posts up :)
The stock coolers are nowhere near as bad as everyone makes out, infact they're a lot better than some of the 'enthusiast' HSFs that have heatpipes tacked onto the fins with a tiny dab of solder, and/or are made from real low quality metals.
