Do you know the FPO/Batch # of the Intel Core i7 920's that you are selling ?

they are all different

mine is a 3838B

most recent have been 3838A

 

[satty]

does it matter? if so why?

Just checked mine and its 3837B317 why does this matter anyway? im assuming Intel are not really improving the processors as they make more (especially this early in there manufacture).. I think anyway

3839A is mine

It matters some batchs clock better than others.

Mines a 3836A694

cool, in which case i think i got really lucky as a quick search online and my batch number 3837B has had some pretty good results.

 

[PunkRoadkill]

phew, i have a 3835A which seems to be able to reach 4Ghz on pretty low voltages

 

[PunkRoadkill]

looks like the best batches are OEM i7's

My retail is a 3838A, a right stinker of a batch by most accounts. Never bothered clocking it.

I have an oem, the looking at the top of the chip the only way I can see the batch? No programs will shows it will they?

Bad luck Jokester - same batch for me, drat.

Oh well can always buy another one I suppose.

3835A781 here on a Biostar x58:

3.8ghz ht on, 1.316v Noctua 1366 push/pull.

I'm sure I could do more but my temps are insane!

Got this 3 weeks ago.

Not quite on-topic but what kind of speed can you get out of these with decent air cooling that's stable for a 24/7 machine?

3.6 or 3.8Ghz from air is as far as i would try.
Mine using a true is at 3.8ghz at the moment.
