^ lol... Jerks.. with your i7's and crazyness.... and stuff.... I can't even get this darn thing to boot 3.8g! it's either the board or the CPU... throw a dart and pick one.. This maybe a 790 chipset board, but the BIOS sucks.. No options at all.. steps in 0.10v only... no .05v option for me..

You act as if a Phenom II X4 sucks, I'm on a X2 5000+ which is still pretty good, even if its low-end by today's standards.

And you got it past 3.0ghz too? That's solid for today's games too

Well in terms of Superpi the Phenom 2 pretty much does suck...and in terms of 24/7 stable daily clocks it's not really my top pick either.

As for bang/buck gaming performance it's way up at the top of the list though IMO.

Heck, with all the VMware stuff and multitasking I do now, I'm pretty interested in any Quad-core, be it even a Phenom I

I'm just happy I'm not in last, no overclocking, and the only tri-core cpu I've ever seen haha.
