Oh yeah! I LOVE this processor as far as multi-tasking! it's a monster with that.. I guess I'm just getting a little jealous of the i7 clocks and stream processors and how much more it handles over the PII 940....... But as it stands now, I can't justify the cost to switch to the i7... I already have one of the top PII CPU's as it is.. another $500 for an i7 build would almost have to be done with lottery earnings, because I'm not spending that money... Prolly not for a year or so.. I got bills to catch up on..

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

I was just kidding around, as far as the Phase change and the insane clocks. and it runs 3.0g stock.. it'll do 3.5 on air and without touching the VCore.. So for me being on liquid and having a decent enough rig, hitting the wall @ 3.8g is a setback for me.

Probably badly set thermal paste?

Stream Processors o_O we're not talking about a video card here man

SuperPi is pretty terrible for comparing different CPU architectures.

I need to do some work on my watercooling. Get this kink out of the tubes, and probably lap the EK supreme. I'm not getting the temps I should ATM.

That's what I was thinking too, but I just re-did my past w a CC and it actually runs hotter now.. See my thread in this section about it..

[LionRed]

Sry hikaricloud...I think it will be awhile before I post another score (well till someone goes a little faster :freak.
Thank you! for keeping the scores as up to date as you have been.

I wounder if XP would produce better times with this, over Vista..

I think it depend's on how many processes/services are running, if both were running the same amount of processes with the same amount of cpu usage, I don't know if there would be a noticeable difference.
