I know the D0 from 920 is more or less like the best to oc with to get to 4.0ghz

But how about the new 950s? Are they any easier?

Im not sure if the 950s will be any easier to oc than a 920, but they most certainly won't be harder.

id say easier b/c of the higher multiplier, but the 920 were good overclockers, soem of them. almost every 950 can hit 4ghz.

Basically all i7-920/930/9XX will hit 4 Ghz. Except the occasional HORRIBLE chip, they will all make it, even the CO's. I ran my CO at 4.2 with 1.44 Vcore- sure it liked volts, but it also hit the speed.

Don't worry about what you get, at 4.0 everything is fair game.

4.0 should be doable with any i5/i7 chips

all 930s are d0 an i think all 950s are as well.

Depends on the individual chip.

My 920 is a much better OCer than my 950.
