Incredible Processor

4 Cores, Unlocked Multipliers, 3.0mhz speed. Whatelse could you wish for?

Power hungry and hot. This processor takes a lot of power and runs warm. Make sure you have good ventilation and cooling on your rig. My P6N Diamond handles it well, but you will have to up the north and south bridge voltages to get it to run at stock speed.

I love this processor! I currently have it set at 3.67 with just a quick change of the multiplier. Runs incredibly stable, though to do it, I have to almost max my north and south bridge voltages. I should have waited for the new 770i boards, they support the yorkfield processors...oh well,I still love it!
