Was at the office of TONES (http://www.tones.be) today to check out their latest hardware and found this in the 2600K trays:

Looks like Intel engineering failed at "previous + 1" numbering.

is that possible? the right side looks like 3.48 than 3.40 GHz to me lol

 

Both are 3.40, the other one is just blurred out.

told you you need to look the whole SN, not only the last 4 digits ;)

 

at least both of these can come under one warranty :D

Intel QC for SB just laughing when they saw retail end customer started to do cpu binning for them:)

 

From thousands of 2600Ks sold worlwide only a few that can go >5.8Ghz..a few in Japan, two in Europe and one in US and a little bit more that can go >5.7Ghz worldwide..So far

 

Of course a few probly can be found at "in house" mobo makers QVT testing lab and probly a lot of peep that own 2600K but never bother to try boot up at >56X

 

Dunno abot 2500K though..

5150 vs 5350 or so. Need to check my little green book.

 

Keep me posted on the new load at Tones (I assume all are the same batch)?

That's from last May :P

 

I know.

 

But now we have Massman-Gate ... which is from ... yesterday , and Intel is going to investigate further.

 

Anyway , dont bother.

 

I was joking :D
