Post by hercules71185 »

all are the new 45nm and wolfdale cores, Is it like AMD where 3600-5000 brisbanes are identical and all overclock to 2.8-2.9? Or does that 8500 oc to 4.7 and the rest like 3.5

8200 will overclock slightly less because of the low multiplier, unless you can reach very high FSB. Most 8400's can do around 4Ghz and 8500's will do 4+
