“I'd hoped to thoroughly investigate overclocking in this review but due to it arriving relatively late to us and because this particular chip was to be returned to AMD post-review I figured it best not to go doing anything too drastic.” This is truly amazing. AMD is barely shipping samples and all the news rags think AMD has introduced a new highspeed part! Samples to select dealers != volume production. Next week Intel will introduce a new highspeed P4 and every major hardware supplier will have systems available immediately. Anyone see a difference? EP

Herb, Re: “I'd hoped to thoroughly investigate overclocking in this review but due to it arriving relatively late to us and because this particular chip was to be returned to AMD post-review I figured it best not to go doing anything too drastic.” My guess is that the process is currently binning so few 2.13GHz parts that AMD needs all the review samples to finish their validation schedule. With their current problems in the market, I wouldn't put it below AMD to put PR ahead of their internal validation commitments. wbmw
