lmao it depends on what info you are trying to find...
wikipedia usually has very good info just dont quote from it when it has to do with education or work...

*wink* *wink* a piece of advice...
on the bottom of the page are the sources the author/s of the wikipedia page got their info...
if you just use those they are almost all the time reliable...

remember he OC to an incredible 5.2 Ghz
so we dont know the stock voltage...

what performance...
incredible..

That is pretty amazing.

5.2 Ghz on dry ice. But still, 1.504.....

They reckon it actually booted into Windows at 4.6 ghz with 0.975v !

my my...... 8 threads @ 5.2ghz, leaps & bounds this tech is moving at....

Lmao i just noticed the link...
he's running Windows Server!
it shows as vista but its server....
too bad he didnt post the CPU scores though..
and it was actually 4.5 (stable enough i guess to run 3dmarks) according to the 3d marks score...
using dry ice and temps such like -110 i am blown away....

but using pelt cooling that must have been one hot cpu...:

i want a CPU that has 8mb cache now! each core having 2mb of cache...wow

that's a 3dmark 05 score DA, its not too impressive really.... if that was 06 it would of been AMAZING!!!

aw i see...
got to carried away...
i was just looking and the should have 06 as it says in their sig...
im guessing it was too unstable?
hmm...:huh:

 

[smarteyeball]

I think they were going to tackle 06 in a day or two.

But nuts to benchmarking.... hows it game?

lol.... too true ...if they were to get they're arses in gear & start coding S/W for this many threads.....GTA4 would be smooth as butter....

buttah you say?
then i better start saving...

i dont think companies such as rockstar want to or even care about 8 threaded games
they care about $$$ ( and selling to the lowest common denominator... same with 32/64)
i really believe they just ported it to the point that it was playable and didnt do any optimizing...

.... i know, it had such potential though..

but as you say ''rockstar'' could care less at this point how it runs on the PC....

Shame it's a revision that's going to be the most expensive

Hopefully some will be released for the 920, and the LGA1160 CPU's will be coming through soon.

sad that the LGA 1160's wont be overclockable...
