Opt 165 vs X2 4200+

I still have the pc running now doing more test etc been up for about 18 hours now no crash, got another prime batch to run over night though.

I used to say 8hrs until once prime failed on 9h 11m - now I go for 12h standard.

e.g. Good stability

I usually go for 24 hours, had one fail at 20 hours a couple of weeks ago

Well so far its been solid for 48 hours ran prime last night for 12 hours no problems and converted 8 hours of video etc and gaming so starting to look good

How can I be sure if I order one (opt 170) from OCUK that it'll be a good stepping & clock well?

you cant be sure, but if you order now, when others have been getting good clocks, then if yours is from same batch, it should be good too.

In fact even though mine was advertised as e4 stepping its f2 stepping but it clocks well, im a compete noob at this type of clocking but before I went to sleep on the day I got my bits I got http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=73178
