gareth170, what clock is you Phenom running at?
Im holding out for the Asus M3A79-T Deluxe which is available for about £120 and has the sb750 southbridge
3.0-3.1ghz in vista/xp 32bit os, on vista64 it only gets 2.8-2.9ghz...
so it depends which OS i am in as i haven't got it overclocked in the bios, i just use AMD OverDrive to clock it when i need (when gaming)....
once the new motherboards are out i guess the overclock should be better in 64but os also...
How can that OC be so different? 64bit uses only a bit more resources? I know it isn't like that with Intel processors.
i don't know why its different in 64bit os. maybe it is to do with the resources..

That doesn't really mean anything on that cooling though, some good air results would be better. When are the 45nm ones scheduled to come out? Seriously considering an AMD platform by now.
Soldato
4000Mhz was done before on water a while ago, so maybe that cooling was not needed or that chip is not as good as with temps, but anyway its still nice to see.
45nm in Q4 2008...fingers crossed.
Yeah but the only thing that really matters is if they can get the TDP within limits and the chip good enough to be able to overclock to beat Intel processors.
Soldato
I don't see it as you must beat all.

decent news from AMD camp, and this isn't from the Graphics front. hope it delevers well
lol
