...and should be here on Monday or Tuesday!

I flashed the KX7-333R BIOS today...no problems with stability using the XP 2000 that was in there.

Seems the TBred's have an issue posting with the Abit KX7 and AT7.....but it looks easily enough to work around.

MrIcee at XtremeSystems put up a nice little TBred unlocking guide here (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1261) . So far there have no reported instances of this procedure not working. It's just a simple connecting of the 1,3, and 5 L3 bridges...that's it:) No L1 connecting required (they are already connected). And there is no longer an L10 bridge to determine the lower or higher multiplier scales....interesting. Instead it apears each mobo will have to handle those chores. See the link for more.

BTW, OPP and MrIcee have gotten some awesome overclocks outof these things. OPP has seen close to 2.4ghz with super cooling. These things run HOT! Everyone seems to be keeping voltages under 2.0v. The .13 process just does not like the real high voltages. OPPs best OC so far has come with a core 1.95v.

I'll have some Pics and OC results on mine soon:).

Can't wait to see it m8. I have my goals set on a supercooling system before I get a new CPU. But I am curious to what these T-Breds will do on straight water.

Hi Rob,

Take the $500.00 and get the T-Bred, and sleep on the floor.

Besides, with the new toy, you won't be sleeping anyway, so why not just do it now!!

Take care.........

Nooo...sleep is more important to me :) I got a nice pillow top one...the old matress had springs sticking out and a broken box spring.

I suppose if I hold out on the chip, i might get a better overclocker anyway :)

Who needs sleep just get a nice leather chair and sleep right by the comp.:D
I also decided to wait for the Hammer to come out and will most likely get Vapo Chill or Prometeia system that should be in america soon. Here is the link to it:

I spoke to them and within 2months they should have a reseller in the US. Will definetly get this instead of water, hopefully.
