I just got the back Version of that, Can't wait for it to get here!

I googled a lot for reviews or something retaining info on this CPU, but alas no avail.

I was going to make a thread as well, but you beat me to it.

Point is, I'll be reading this thread diligently, that is, if anyone has any info to share.

Had one of those on my system and it was way to sharp to even install correctly the edges are like blades I mean yea the stats were good but I couldn't access anything on the mobo or near it without cutting my fingers up.. >.<!:banghead:

Check out my system specs... I have the same CPU and same Mobo and its running solid on air cooling. Im hoping to get my water cooling setup soon once i sell my old 8800GTS on ebay and hopefully push it past 3.6

just to let you know if you already didnt. the 6400+ does run hotter then any of other windsors.
