P4C really an EE?

This is nothing new. Pentium 4s have been using the M0 stepping for at least a month now. On average, this stepping yields better overclocks than the other steppings. If you check out Strictly Intel, maybe a few pages in, you can read more on this.
 
Actually it would be more accurate to saw that the P4C has the same stepping as the Opteron. I think since it was some time since I've taken a look at the white papers. Didn't kyle post them on the front page not to long ago?

umm
 
From what I could infer, I thought this was a P4EE with a disabled L3 cache, thats 700$ for free!
 
it is, but u can't re-enable the cache. The EE's that don't work are cache and speed binned to produce 2.4/2.8/3.0's so that they can recover some of the cost.
