over @ hwbot

Yes. 990X might be the end for ES discussion this time http://hwbot.org/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif

If my sources are correct, we all are very happy soon.

Thanks for the "leak" Dave! http://hwbot.org/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif

Crap hwbot is down for me. Where was this said and by whom? I'd say they got this out as fast as possible imo. I've only been around for three years, but I've never seen so many admitted RMA's for CPU's. They can't be happy about the RMA rate. Yet I guess you could say they are holding out to clear stock too huh?

the rma's are because people pushing the 32nm with too much voltage...

Are Overclockers the only ones doing RMA's on these? I doubt it. I think that the 980x cpus in general suck. There is no way our small community of Overclockers can RMA enough to make a difference to Intel. imo.

kiki whats wrong with your 920 ?

the newer 920's where crap after they got a price drop like most 950's

thats what it looks like ppl need more volts for 4-4.2ghz then when they cost more

but i would like to rma my 980 and get a 990 lmao
