operator headgap seems to have run out of 600MHz OC'ed sawtooth cpu pulls. you can ask, but the vendor probably has diminishing interest in the sawtooth ... going into 2009 now.
they have a 550MHz. that's pretty close. in my experience ,a 10% difference is almost never a dealbreaker. and that chip's about 8% less tahn the 600.
