what would u get

[BigD86]

well all the 3500 winchesters are out of stock at every damn place i know about, and i have to get a processor for christmas so would u get a 3200 winchester or a 3500 newcastle. I plan to overclock just a little bit not much at all so im not sure which to get.

Thanks

P.S. And if u have any sites that i dont know about that have the 3500 winchester in stock i would appreciate it alot.

It's different for every chip. It's different for every chip. It's different for every chip.

Yes it will, but there are exceptions. 2.6ghz is the goal for most overclocks...some only get to 2.5ghz

well, you are misinformed. not all chips are equal; they all OC differently

Doesn't happen. The silicon wafer isn't perfect, so some are better than others. If the 3200+ and 90nm 3500+ you are testing are both stable at 2.5GHz and equal settings, then they will perform almost the same. There is never a guarantee for overclocking, only for stock settings.
