Well I can manage a stable but a bit hot 4.3GHZ and a 24/7 4.1GHZ ... but like what the hell why wont it go to 5GHZ ....lol ..No man but on the for real these i7 920's are frigging amazing....When I figure out some real cooling then I think the chip will shine even more....these chips over clocking ability is just one of the best there is to date in my book...with just a upgrade on air cooling for cheap can give these chips 4GHZ no problem with the right config in the bios ....its not like its 3 out of 11 chips may clock but seems as the norm is no problem with 4+GHZ...nice job Intel :rockout:

I think the QPI is limited to 8GT/s, which in turn is about 222mhz BCLK.

From a supermod
According to what I have been told the socket kit will still be released but will be the last one released.
The closing of the forums etc has not been a decision taken lightly, it has not come suddenly and so what I said about the socket kit being released should still stand (hopefully any day now, i will try to get an update)
