Opty 175 or 180?

Thanks for all your help guys.
I followed the consensus of advice and have ordered a new opty 165. From my searching it seems to be one of the last of two new ones remaining in the UK advertised on the web. Cheeky buggers put the price up another £10 overnight to £125 but i managed to talk them into giving me yesterdays price.
I'll let you know how i get on once i put together my system next week.

I've been told it will take 3-4 working days to arrive (being shipped in from the Netherlands i think), but when i get it i'll certainly let you know the stepping. There has been once customer review, from a few days ago,on that site saying that he achieved 2.8 on stock volts with his, so here's hoping for a similar one.

Was going to say the same thing but he may have opted for DHL express. For a premium it's 1-2 day delivery from there so it's possible it could be with him tomorrow. I've just gone for the bog standard parcelforce which is 3-4 working day delivery.

My Opty 175 falls over at 2.8 using stock volts. Your possibly better off with the 165 as i have seen more of those hit 3gig than 175's!

what stepping do you have?

2.8ghz on stock volts is very good same performace as FX62 right?


p.s those guys that bought 165, how much was it inc shippin?
