i7 920 - D0 Stepping from Newegg?

Featured Replies

Hi all,Almost pulled the trigger on a new i7 920 CPU, MB, and RAM this morning until I read that some people are still getting c0 stepping CPUs from Newegg. Some believe the Memphis and NJ warehouses are now shipping D0 exclusively but not CA. I wonder how much longer, if any, I should wait?Also, I'm considering the Asus P6T SE MB instead of the LGA or deluxe v2 models because I use a PCIe HD controller and PCI Audio, so I don't care about onboard matrix or audio capabilities. I only need one LAN adapter. Otherwise the two boards seem the same unless I'm missing something. Do you think the BIOS overclocking capabilities on the SE board could be limited in some way as compared to the LGA or Deluxe-v2 models?Have a good weekend all... Time to crack open the new TrackIR5 that just arrived in the mail this afternoon and have some fun.

Oh..ok..what is C0 and D0? :)

C0 and D0 are CPU steppings, higher stepping means new materials, more improvements and bug fixes. Most important result is better overclock ability.

Kinda one of those things that, if you gotta ask...don't worry about it :( :(
