The hunt is over... (for the time being)
 

I am happy to report that I finally had some luck replacing my lost beloved B batch 980x. After cycling though literally six A and F batches, I was fortunate enough to purchase this chip new on ebay. It is the same batch that Rick has and one off of my previous great chip. This one is a 3003B288 and has almost identical characteristics of my previous B. CB is -124c (I think its my older RE3) and the CBB is -114. It booted right up at 5.8GHz at 1.6vc @-100c and wprimed at 5750MHz at that same voltage. Take a look, here is the best boot up and best wprime. I went really easy on it first time out. More to come when I get a good gpu to put after it.:cool3:

Very nice. I too one day will be in the sub 3 second wprime area :)

(Of course you guys will be crushing the 1 second mark by then LOL)
