Surely it should be in your motherboard, unless you are a robot?

You should update this thread to reflect on the lower price of the I7 970.

There you go ocuk, here is my happy new i7 980x gulftown (start off with stock speed with turbo mode enabled) Are these temperature look ok ?

I was dead nervous when I switched on pc for the first time !

I did notice that Tjmax was default set at 101 ?

thats fine

good to see i7 cores 980x six core twelve threads on your screen: !

get it clocked! [perhaps best to move your results to the overclocking and cooling section]

Thanks Rich. I will do it later in the evening. I had to do some housework to do. And thanks ocuk for excellent fast delivery.
