Scumbria,

re: "If they did ship Tom a bad part, that would have to be considered a major screwup."

First, it was all the chips "don't work".

Then it was a "huge blunder" to send a defective chip to a reviewer.

Now it's "IF" it was a bad part?

Glad I didn't sell my stock because I was "outraged" by Intel's "amatuer management".

John

SCUMbria - re: "The fact that Anand got a good part does not mean that Tom did. If they did ship Tom a bad part, that would have to be considered a major screwup."

How do youknow Tom got a bad part ?

He said the part worked at 850 MHz.

Re: "Did Intel tell Tom that he needs a microcode update?"

Did anybody else mention that a new MicroCode update was needed?

How did Anand test it in BOTH and OLD 440BX motherboard and a VIA 133 Motherboard?

Do you think Intel is supplying Microcode Updates for VIA Chip Sets and Motherboards?

Face it - Tom Uberclockerschmuckermeister just made another Major Cluster F*ckUp - which he continually does - yet you JUMP all over Intel for the Uberclockerschmuckermeister's screw-ups !

Get serious. Do you really thing Intel would ship a defective sample to Tom? If Tom's part is bad, it's much more likely that Tom damaged it than Intel shipped it that way. Why don't you blame Tom?
