-6 cores
-25x Multiplier!
-12mb cache
-Stock Heatsink is nice, I replaced it with an H70 from Corsair
-Overclocked @ 4.5ghz (25x180)
Has a locked multiplier. 12-25, cannot go above 25. If you are looking to go past say 42.-4.5 and aim for 5ghz, go with the 980x. The unlocked multiplier of the 980x allows for easier gains, as you don't have to push your base clock as hard.
Great processor, needed a little more juice @ 4.5, other than that, was an easy overclock, running it on the Asus Rampage Extreme, the full calibrated power helps :) If you need a high end system, this processor will do it for you, after 4.5ghz you are pushing your luck, you'll have to seriously tweak the voltages. This processor had a review of only overclocking to 4ghz. Wrong! 4.4 is easymode.. 4.5 took a little pump in the juice :P
six core impressive
Too Expensive
