Any word on the E5200?

I've just found that as well, may use it to replace my E4500. Does anybody know how easy it is to flash the BIOS on the Gigabyte P35C-DS3R? I need to do this to allow it to take 45nm. I won't have to reformat or anything after flashing will I?
Ok cool. Also, I think that there are a number of BIOS revisions that have been released since I bought my board. I am on revision F4. Say I want to get to F9, will I have to flash through F5, F6, F7 and F8 first, or can I just go straight to F9?
Really? This one hits 4Ghz at 1.38v. 1.7 sounds like an awful lot, considering the performance of the other 45nm; you sure that's right?

Hmm fair enough. That looks a bit odd as he is doing that on air!! Apparently these have been released in Aus for the last couple of weeks and people have hit 4ghz-they dont say what voltage they have put through it though...

here is one at less than 1.4v
I'm not saying that I dont believe that report, more that it seems a little high! Probably worth finding out a little more before buying!

Haha awesome. I'm not too fussed about how it benches-at the same speed as my E4500 it ought to outperform it slightly (or at least run cooler). Really all I want to know is how it clocks-I can't get my 4500 higher than 3.2ghz, so want something that goes a little higher!
