The processor core 2 Quad q9550 (2.83 GHz) with 2 X 6 MB cache in the second level had to pass to E0 stepping at the end of August, and the corresponding copies were already noted in retail. Let us recall that E0 stepping has a better overclocking potential,. On this stepping is also based the recently presented dual core 45nm processor core 2 Duo e8600 (3.33 GHz).
Does this indicate that those desiring to obtain E0 stepping processor must pay more than $200?
Before checking cheaper alternatives, we propose the photograph of core 2 Quad q9550 (2.83 GHz) stepping E0 processor , discovered in Japanese retail:
On R0 stepping (which is petty similar to E0 except with lower cache) for example, are based the processors core 2 Quad q9400 (2.66 GHz) with 2 X 3 MB cache in the second level and Core 2 Quad q8200 (2.33 GHz) with 2 X 2mb cache in the second level. Note also that dual core wolfdale processors with cache volume not more than 3 MB will be also transferred in R0 stepping . Related Products :
