It seems he got a golden chip. Because you can pan through even the other threads and there's like 3-4 other people who need 1.3+ to get anything higher than 4.6GHz.

Damn it, all these negative results ( I've seen so many now ) make me just want to get a 2500k, because I'll be that unlucky guy who can't even get to 4.3 GHz before overheating :P
I guess I can wait a day ( or week ) longer and wait for the official reviews and benchmarks, but still.
This isn't what I had hoped for.

1st is idle, 2nd under stress @ 4.2 GHZ using OC genie 2

Those ur personal results? Cause that's all I would probably look to oc to. Just something small.
While it might be bad for the hardcore overclocker, I think that for the average user and the mid oc, it might be worth it. I would change my 2500k at 4.5 for a i5 3570k at 4.4, IF I can sell my 2500k for as close as possible to the ivy value. Just for the lols.
From a "is it worth for gaming?" only point of view, I'd think not, but we all know "being worth it" is not always the only matter here =p

He said it was stable at 1.225V, as I mentioned earlier. There are screenshots of all sorts of temps and voltage. Other than the fact that it seems like anything over 1.3v produce a lot of heat (which is obviously bad) I'm not sure what to think before we get more number after the official release. It's not looking great but we'll have to see.
Edit: the bold part, which again is at 1.44v well over the 1.2-1.3v
4.8@1.225 is stable, just to clear it up(4.8@1.21 was stable for 5hr prime blend and 30 runs linx@max memory, just bumped it a notch because i cba to test for 24hr prime).

Guess we'll find out at noon tomorrow since that's supposedly when the NDA lifts.
Hehe look at the Intel response to this guy:
The threadRe: Ivy bridge "temperature"
According to the information on the monitoring software that you are using, this seems to be an Engineering Sample processor (ES). Please read the following information:
“Your processor is marked as an engineering sample. This is a pre-production part that is distributed to hardware and software manufacturers to allow them to develop products prior to the introduction of a processor.
Since it is not a production unit, it does not have warranty coverage, and performance is not guaranteed.
I recommend you return it to your place of purchase for a refund or a replacement.”
I also see that you are over-clocking the processor, so it is expected to have higher temperatures due to over-clocking.
Really, overclocking will produce higher temps? Who would have thought =p
From what a bunch of people on OCN are saying, it's noon instead of the original expectation of Midnight lol

And FTW 420 is a very reputable overclocker so I'd honestly rely on his info.

Another thing too is that Core Temp is recognizing all of the Ivy Bridge CPU's and even retail ones as ES's lol

Someone in the thread linked by Saithes said "12 PM EST." Unless of course it's 12 PM in Europe which would be in like an hour and 40 minutes +-? =p
