Default come back

Ok after taking care of some unfinished business and switching careers I'm ready to come back.

I'm considering picking up Some x58 stuff to bench with Over the next few weeks. Hopefully I can help out on hwbot with a few boints.

Question, does the x58 platform still give out good points?

I haven't looked recently but I would imagine in the processor arena that it would be pretty stiff competition as x58 endured as a platform for a while.

I say screw the boints, they're incidental, bench for funzy man. Pick a rabbit and chase like hell.

Your right, I remember doing dice runs on my amd 955 and it being amazing just having fun.

I always liked competition so I'm going with it, just need to find a gpu pot as well and a mount for a kingpin f1 Pot.

I'll be posting a lot more asking for help since it's been a while.

my goal is to do my first dice run in 2 weeks, if everything goes right I'll have a full x58 setup and a i5 750 to bench with.
