HI there

OK good news!

Today/Tomorrow we shall be shipping our first 20 E6600 Retail backorders and were hoping to recieve a further 100-500 units over the next 10 days which should clear most of the backorders.

This is just passing on what I have been informed, don't take it as rock solid but at least its something and you heard it here first.

well info like this is appreciated!

Water kit ... ?!? Whats that !

Haha yes im running on air using a Zalman 9500 ! How do you know the sensors are out ?

I have noticed my PSU is a lot cooler as well due to the fact that the PSU doesnt have to work as hard to power the CPU.

Im Dualing Prime 95 and the CPU temp is no higher than 50C thats been on overnight now.

Not yet mate , not yet

Tonight im gonna jump straight to 333 FSB to get to 3.0Ghz and prime it up

Did a few quick benchies last night and i got a jump of about 500 points in 3dmark2005. Previous CPU 930 D

Not bad but the system just feels a lot more responsive and the games that i had a go at feels a lot smoother

Hi there

More good news!!

Another 200 E6600 Retail are arriving in our warehouse tomorrow AM!

This means that all backorders will ship tomorrow so you will all have your E6600 backorders for the weekend.

I told you OcUK would look after you and get the best allocation which we have due to the fact we have taken so many pre-orders for this product.
