The processor is a disproportionate amount of the total cost of this particular bundle. I guess that's when you know it's the tip-top performance hardware. Bet you guys at OcUK have had some fun playing with this one!

I completely agree, the processor is almost 2/3 of the total cost, but if you want extreme performance and nothing but will do, then for a lot of our customers there will be no other choice but to order this bundle.

We are fortunate enough to have a few very rich customers, who will no doubt snap this up. :cool:

1 X Sharkoon Silent Eagle 1000 120mm Fan is included as part of the bundle as per the spec.

The 920/930 was able to be overclocked to 4.2GHz, its just the new gulf town put out a lot of heat especially under the load and while overclocked. More if im honest than most heat sinks can look after. With these chips been so new and as allocation is so tight we have been able to do as many batch tests so while we can guarantee 4GHz... 4.2GHz is something we offer but cant guarantee.

Would the evga classified 3 or 4 way mobo support this processor out of the box? Thank You

Quite possibly with a bios update.

Quite Correct, b as we were unable to guarantee every chip will do 4.2GHz as its so new and we have not had enough chips come through our technical department i changed it to 4.00GHz which we can guarantee it will do.

I did think 4.2 was a bit aggressive. I daresay you'll offer it again if the first batch you clock turn out to be (sensibly) capable of it.

Quite correct, i image all Gulftown bundles will be tested at 4.20GHz to see the viability. If all chips will do 4.2GHz then we will update the bundle to the new speed.
