red930 Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 I ordered one because i saw a huge amount of people getting the CCBBE 0616XPMW stepping... Instead, I get an ancient and crappy stepping: CCBWE 0551VPMW. Bad luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syngensmyth Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 They will RMA if not open. I would not keep it. I saw someone comment on finding out stepping before you buy on Newegg. He made it sound like it was possible but I couldn't follow it. Still don't know if you can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 Well that would be dishonest.. besides, I could just sell it off to a friend of mine who's looking into a dualie. I already opened it.. gonna pop it in and see how far I get. I don't expect much higher than 2.65GHz though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syngensmyth Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 Not really. I worried about my stepping and emailed them. They sent me an RMA and said as long as it was unopened, no problem ... but I'm special:) Then someone here told me to look through the window on the box ... who knew ... and there was CCBBE looking at me. But yes, if you opened it, that's different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bummed as I got a crappy stepping especially when CCBBEs were flying out of the warehouse left and right... lmao worst comes to worst I'll pull 2.6ghz out of this proc.. I was the one who told you to look through the window http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showthread...?t=68772&page=2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
