Got an email from Microcenter, I5 2500k will retail at $249.99 and they are offering $70 instant savings. If any of y'all are ready to upgrade your processors, this is the time to do it.

Seriously a factory rig at 5GHz?
I wonder if you can reach 5GHz on an air cooled system instead of water, probably could with i7 980x idk doubt it though.

I had the H50 running at 4GHz. My temps were always <40c at idle
When I went to 4.6GHz I got an H70 and my temps are still <40c at idle

If you're familiar with the AMD Black Edition processors, this is the same concept. On locked processors, you can only change the multiplier downwards, like from 16 to 15. On these, you can change them upwards as well, making overclocking extremely easy.Originally Posted by omgitswes
A quick overview on Sandy Bride. I really don't think I'm missing too much since all I will be doing is gaming. It is looking pretty nice though
I don't understand Intel's numbering either. Why is this socket 1155, it would probably make some think that they can put an 1156 processor in it
What's an advantage in having an unlocked CPU?
