Booted up with no OC or BIOS settings touched and by default it has all cores locked at 4.7 on the Hero.
Quick temp test, no delid:
Nice mate! Does it lock all cores to 4.7 24/7 (so disable SpeedStep)? I would set it up manually later, as I'm sure you will, and get those volts down.
You have a nice system - why not wait a bit and see what happens. There have been some shops in the US that are showing larger supplies arriving in a week or two. I'm sure the situation will improve over time for the smaller northern European countries as well.
Edit: I do realize what a disappointment this is, I'm just saying look on the bright side since your system is perfectly serviceable for now.
Yeah I know that you are right, it's the mere disappointment after first not going SKL-X, then no CFL-S in August and now none upon actual launch. And had some days off to play with it as well. I've inquired and no shop knows when they can get them here, same for the Apex and one didn't even know if they will sell it to begin with ha ha. Also, I'm waiting with a few games I'm eager to play with the new system.
I did just get my RAM - looks very sleek!
