    If so are the sliders in the bios for overclocking? I found one for $450 and tempted to buy!

    That's an ES, coming from Japan if it's the one I saw on Ebay. I wouldn't recommend it, as he states it will not overclock. And as of right now, the x9100 won't overclock through BIOS, or Vista. Waiting on a BIOS release :) Really though, I'm running fine without the OC. See sig.

    I wouldnt trust that chip.. just me personally. As a heads up, wait for the quad core mobile.. will be the better choice for the 7811. As long as BIOS supports it..and I dont know why it wouldnt.
