Yes, I fixed the speghetti after the shot :sweat:

Picture is from my MotoRokr Z6, so the quality sucks :sweat: I sneaked away long enough to buy all the crap and put them together, but got 3 reports due soon so I won't bother trying to install OS or try to OC it yet :whistle:

I wasn't even born then 0____0"

I really really want to OC with it, but don't have videocard yet, and I don't feel like tearing down my current box with the GTS, gotta work on the reports and all. Nor use the 76gt that is laying around. Ah well. So much for getting the E8400 early :p

Look at how cute the boxed cooler is. Box of cancersticks for size reference.

Edit2: Dug out my old boxed cooler for my e6300 :o

Wow that's small! I guess these new 45nm chips really must run cool :)

Awesome CPU! :) The new fan is interesting - it shows that the CPUs have a really low power usage. My E6300 came with the copper base fan, and my E2140 came with the same size fan -it had an aluminum base. This new fan seems to be a smaller version of the all aluminum fan.

AMD4LIFE... oh... sorry... still hungover from last nite. :)

Edit, also does it look like the fan blows down onto the HSF?

Nice! Watch out for the people on this forum. They'll tell you that you don't in fact actually have the CPU yet because it's not officially released and so on..... Tell us how it all goes :)

@OP: What are your temps? and also tell us the temps + OC once you OC the chip. And oh yeah... BENCHMARKS (i know they are on the web already, but I want to see more benchmarks with OCing)

Word of advice don't put the 8xxx CPU cooler on the E6xxx/Pentium 4/D (?) :lol: CPUs, the E6xxx will probably over heat. But you can use a E6xxx stock fan on the E8xxx.
