Retail Gulftown results
 

Setup:

Retail i7 980X batch #3003B287 Costa Rica
EVGA Classified 762
2x MSI 5870 Lightning's stock coolers
Corsair Dominator GT's 6GB 2000MHz C8's
Antec TPQ 1200W
Kingpin F1 EE
Dimastech benchtable

cb -140
cbb -85

So far, all tests have been run with all 6 cores, HT on. Chip seems pretty solid so far, it would run '03 and '05 at 5.8GHz on 1.6V, 6GHz at 1.75

Last nights runs were mostly around 1.8V Vdroop disabled. Really looking forward to putting this chip under the 3 stage cascade for fine tuning. Seems to be some issues with the GPU's either driver/afterburner/bios related. I would get vertical grey and white bars at desktop when running server '08.
