hi,,last week i won a extreme x6800 for £430...still on air got the core to 3965.

can i go higher on air?

got a prommie sat here but no time to fit it yet...what overclocks am i looking at when fitted ?

had a play with super pi 1m.....scored 12.875
 
What week stepping is it?? my es does 4.4 non benchable but will bench @ 4.2 under the cascade it will only do 4.8 and bench at 4.6
 
All 3 of my 6800's ran 1m over 4ghz on the stock cooler.On the prometeia you will hit around 4.6ghz for spi.
 
I got an absolute bargain on a new X6800 on Sat night for £391.50 - Cant wait for it to arrive, looking to upgrade the mobo to a 680i - any suggestions as the the best ocing one- eVGA ASUS.........who has one and what they like???

Nah it was one of those BIN for £499 or 'Best Offer'

I started with a silly offer of £325- now that would have been a bargain!:D

Im always scouting looking a good deal, if I see another I'll give you a shout!:wink:

Anything about the 680i mobos?

Yes they are very good so far:)
 
The EVGA board is out at shocking prices (£206+ delivered) from the usual suspects.

The Asus, Abit and DFI are looking like better options- D-PWM makes the CPU area much clearer, so sub-zero is a LOT easier.

I`ve seen from Coolalers tests that the chipset loses out slightly compared to the 965/975..maybe 0.2 secs in SuperPi 1M, tho obviously it has the space to improve
