I wonder if they're planning any 1333 FSB Quads that aren't Yorkfields. I just got my Striker Extreme motherboard this year and I don't plan on upgrading to the whole DDR3/45nm scene anytime soon. It's the easy and seemingly very stable overclockability that sold me for on the E6*50s. In gaming, it's the speed (and cache...) that seems to matter when it comes to processors.

These new g0 stepping cores are the ones that clock so well. The new quads after July 22 will also be g0.

Isn't that stepping B revision G0, as per this article quote?

Also of note according to CPU-Z are the new E6750's revision and stepping. The version of Conroe at the heart of the E6750 is stepping B revision G0

Intel has been very smart because they do baby steps.

Their change process helps to make the steps go in the right direction. Baby steps add up.

I agree that Intel's roadmap does look very promising.

It's mind-boggling, really. Years from now, I suspect that this will be regarded as a a very special time in the history of processor development.

Is that so surprising that a post needs to be made about it? I mean many people on this forum are close to that with $150 E6300's and E4300's. :roll:

I don't think so or at least I haven't read anything to that effect. I think the heat and power consumption will prevent them releasing a 65nm 1333FSB quad. Plus if they did it would drive the prices of their dual cores down, They like having the consumer make the choice of more cores or more speed.

There is NO truth in the rumor that MrsBytch and BarronMatrix will be wed on July 22 2007 AD. The laws of all 50 states forbid it.

I say let them marry. I’m sure it will be a great union, just like AMD and ATI. I can see the day when Baron announces that The Bytch is pregnant; it’ll be another paper launch and 15 months later she’ll still be with child. MrsBytch is an elephant – they have very long gestation periods also, just like AMD. :evil:

This time around, however, our results were nothing short of spectacular. By bumping the processor's core voltage to 1.45v and increasing the front side bus speed via our Asus P5K Deluxe motherboard's BIOS, we were able to take the Core 2 Duo E6750 up from its default clock speed of 2.6GHz to an impressive 3.92GHz (multiplier=8x / Front Side Bus Frequency=490MHz. This was done using the stock Intel CPU cooler on an open-air test bench. At that speed, the CPU completed a Cinebench rendering pass in just 18 seconds and it blew past the Core 2 Extreme X6800 in SANDRA's Processor Arithmetic benchmark.

What Intel has done here is, more or less, confirmed they have at least one more speed grade available.

"Good" Cornoes will usually do +/- ~~3.6 ghz~~ on a stock cooler, so 3.9 means they have found another speed grade versus the old stepping.

I suspect we will see a 3.33 ghz part out, ~~maybe a 3.6 ghz 1600 FSB~~ Extreme Edition chip out, oh say about 24 hours before the Barcelona NDA's expire?

Intel doesn't increase the FSB on there extreme edition processors, it provides little to no gain but also requires numerous motherboard makes to include support for it. All the new processors will be on the 1333fsb for a while. So if Intel does release a potential X6950 or what else they might name it, it would run on the a 1333.
