What's this I've heard about bad batches of G0/SLACRs? This guy on another forum tells me:
I have been hearing this around many other forums as well...
Is this just noobery? or are there many legitimate bad batches of G0s out there that don't go past 2.8Ghz? What can I do to avoid this? Is there a certain date that I should avoid, I mean, I don't know how to go about this, I really want to replace my B3 with a better running G0...
1.55v to get 3.6 stable is not unusual. Getting 3.6 stable with any voltage can probably only happen with about half the chips out there regardless of stepping. Be careful what you wish for, because you might end up with one of those G0s with a max overclock of 2.8 - and there are many such SLACRs (literally) out there.
