4770K Overclockers

[harrynowl]

According to this 

http://www.techpowerup.com/articles/overclocking/intel/18

 

L427c153  L as the first letter = Malaysia 

And it's week 27 of this year which is beginning of July = 2 months old 

 

Is that good or bad?

odds are it'll be more good than bad

 

probably not a 4.8ghz chip but not a 4.1ghz either

Hey guys, 

 

Just wanted to give you an update.

 

The 4770k batch # that was given to me was wrong, it was actually 3409A849 (costa rica)

Hooked it up to a friend's sabertooth z87 and all I could get to was a lousy 4.3Ghz.

 

So now I'm trying to sell it and will be buying a 4790K batch number L420B755 which is hopefully a good one (based on people who have that number)

 

Will be asking some more questions in a new thread. Thank you all for your great help so far!
