q6600 still > all and it OC a bit more than 250MHz.... at least the 3870x2 wasn't a failure

Yey! Jason cleaned up the torture rack

Just goes to show how much Intel's conroe magic overclocking has made us pretty much take huge overclocks for granted.

LOL amd should start selling these for cheaper than the locked version! thats the only wya there gonna get rid of them.its sad that my q6600 can do a better overclock on stock voltage with a locked multi

Wow, those OC results are horrible. Its amazing how much OC headroom the Intel chips have in comparison. A q6600 easily gets to 3.6 on air. We got it to 3.2 without increasing voltage.

Phenom is kind of like Netburst, except it doesn't clock.
