True Processor Speed

I'm glad it worked out.

Happy Holidays!

All the things above don't really give me my true processor speed because they have a problem reading the real core clock in SLFM mode. I use HWinfo32 and Throttlestop to see the real clock speed, multiplier and C0 and CMod values( to ensure not throttling due to thermal control)

This is a mighty fine processor. What do you do with all that power (when you are not gaming)?

When not gaming I spend a lot of time with 64 Bit Adobe CS5 applications (Mostly Photoshop) and 64 bit Adobe "Lightroom 3".

I have roughly 100,000 "large digital pictures", (.jpg's and raw) and I do a lot of batch conversions on them. I also like to play with Adobe Premier, Video Studio 10 (HD Video), and Photoshop Elements - When you are dealing with picture databases of this size it helps to have some "horsepower".

And it never hurts to be listening to your favorite tunes all at the same time (64 bit Itunes) and surfing the INTERNET -
Thats Our world these days - "Multitasking" :):):) The SSD's help a lot too !!!!!!! All on a 30 inch monitor.

you got a heavy duty beast pc :)

Hey we all know in a year or even much sooner there will be a more powerful video card, a faster processor, faster SSD's, etc, etc. Technology never stops.

My system will be viable for a few years then I'll have to start all over again to stay competitive.

I think ur current rig can last another 4-5 years
