Looks like it. Improved frequency potential for all types of cooling.

This is likely an early review sample so the retails may be even slightly better.

Yep... Phenom II can finally be called a 4Ghz chip IMO.

The other thing which is awesome... 57C max load with a single low speed fan.

Phenom II's aren't only a great value for price/performance, they also OC beautifully on inexpensive cooling.

Want.

When is this getting released, and at what price? Futile question, yes.

So if I'm going to buy a PhII.. I should wait for the C3 to be guaranteed 4GHz?

Yes, it still isn't a guarantee, but as close as you'll get to one.

Either way, I'd definitely wait for C3. It's the reason I haven't upgraded my 720BE that was purchased on AM3 release day... I've been waiting for the first revision.

So is this going to be faster than a i5 750? If it is I'm going full AMD.

There's no architectural change. I think the answer is obvious.
