(UPDATE: The full article has been posted on HardOCP as of this morning. Please feel free to discuss our testing and results.)
Just wanted to give you guys a heads up. NewEgg was kind enough to send me a 2.8GHz LGA775 CPU for OC testing. If you check our ABIT AA8 (i925X) review, you will see that 240FSB was a stretch for our engineering sample CPUs. The retail 2.8 did a 250MHz FSB at default settings with Corsair DDR2. With less than .1v bump to the Vcore, we have been running at a SOLID 255MHz x 14 for a full day now.
Anyways, a 1018MHz FSB and 680MHz memory bus are sort of nice chugging along at 3.5GHz.
