Trade D0 for E0 stepping?

[Stugots]

I have a chance to switch my D0 Stepping Celeron 320 for a E0 stepping Celeron 320. My current D0 is running at 3.0 because 3.6 seems a little unstable. I'm hoping that the E0 will be able to hit 3.6+

Any thoughts?

E0 is much better, especially on LGA775.

Why is that? It is a s478 chip.

Most of the 570J and 670 chips are EO steppings and that indicated intel's top silicon...

I just pulled the E0 chip and it has an SL code of SL87J. It is not listed on the Intel site. Does anyone know any info on this, overclocking results in particular

Update:

I'm testing now at 3.8. My D0 bombed out of prime95 alittle after an hour, lets see how long this one can run for.
