Yeah, kinda like how the E8500 doesn't give much over the E8400. E8400 or E8600 or go home!
Meh, nothing really special here, but it's a decent OC for daily use. Haven't tried getting past 3.2GHz with my new RAM though...
^Lawd you can go farther than that with Dominators. It's a G0 stepper too, i would be surprised if you couldn't break 3.6.
Thanks!
I compared to other systems using the Futuremark "ORB" thing, and there were only three other systems using Core 2 Quad (45nm) processors and GTX 285's... They were Q9550's and a Q9650, yet they each had less memory than me (4GB and 2.8GB). Unfortunately they were all either SLI or Triple-SLI so there Vantage GPU scores alone were in the high 20k...
I may attempt to OC my processor more when I add another 120mm fan to my CPU cooler...
