The Pentium III Coppermine 1130EB actually appeared, disappeared, and then reappeared in limited qualities during its ill-fated lifespan. Some of the earliest versions suffered stability and compatibility problems, resulting in suspended production. After a long delay, the 1130EB experienced a short renaissance before Intel released its next flagship production, the Pentium 4.
Issues surrounding the P3 1130EB likely resulted from its enormous peak power demand - 37.5 watts at full load (almost 8 watts more than its 1000EB sibling). The 1130EB requires serious cooling to dissipate such a thermal load; overclocking is limited to a few MHz for most configurations. Increasing the core voltage to 1.85 volts should only be attempted with an active cooling solution, such as a Peltier-based heatsink or radical vapor-phase technology.
