I7 920 C Batch???
 

I stopped in microcenter today to see if they had any 920s that were packaged before October. While going threw them I found a C batch. Packaged on 9/17/09
Batch 3917C043. So I picked it up cause Ive never seen a C batch.

I havent opened it up yet, I started Googleing an came across 1 post on XS an 1 post on hard forum saying they have one. But noone has posted how the chip clocks or seen any screenies. Has anyone here had one of these chips?

Whoa you might have just snagged a killer chip or from a killer batch as post 3 here shows in his sig to have one at 4.4ghz @ 1.328v load. Not too bad.

Only one way to find out. Pop the top and overclock it!

Here is a thread started by the person and his c batch.

Thanks Nip

Ain't much in that thread along the lines of screenshots or anything but at least we know they do exists besides yours.

Rite. I thought I seen that on hardforum. But it was the thread you just posted lol.

Alrite Im about to throw this thing in. The best 920 Ive ever had had a stock Vcore of 1.112 all chips after were 1.24-1.28 stock voltage. Ill post back in a bit see were this chip is at

Just depends on what mobo you are using too. My DFI defaulted mine around there but my Classified puts me around 1.25v. Of course then again I could just be smoking crack and imagined this but pretty sure of this. Wish I still had my DFi to test this theory.

Never mind LOL :)

Haha here is what it was when defaults were set. Maybe I was smoking crack. I love it!

Im on the 759 Classified. All the 920's Ive used had all differant First boot stock Vcore.
After I clock them an run them for a bit, the stock setting is even higher when I go back to default lol like 1.32 an chit.

This chip starts at 1.20 vcore still lowest Ive seen out of my last 5 chips of October an up.

So Im going to Prime this for a few hrs set at 1.00 vcore after vdrop .964 for the heck of it. I wonder If I do that an clear Cmos if the default will be lower???
Time to eat im starvin.
