Calathea Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Hi all. Noticed this on local sales forum. Pretty new IMO. Got one E400 now with batch Q828, this sample is almost two years newer! Makes you wonder if there´s been any improvement in manufacturing.. anyone got any experience on this with s775? It's still a fun platform to OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Buy, test and report back! Afaik, the latest batches of the E8600's were really good. Back in the day, SF3D and Elmor had a couple to test and they were pretty much all 6.5G, if I'm not mistaken. So ... maybe, yeah. Just maybe.

Calathea Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 Yeah might do that, E8400s are dirt chep. Emailed seller and checked if he's using a generic pic first though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Not sure which would be the oldest CPU batches. Wolfdale was EOL in 2011, I think, but that just means they stop from being sold and not that they just stop from being produced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
