My i7 975 is pretty mediocre. Getting a really competitive chip is the roll of the dice. Maybe a Xeon????????
4870 GPUs are old news....4870 X2 isn't enough of a jump up.
4890s aren't enough of a jump up.
The SS is old news so I probably need to think about a new cooling technology.
Rampage II Extreme boards are old news....I think I can use them to make two really nice email rigs.  |
I know the feeling Steve. Dice or LN2 may get another 100Mhz or so from your CPU. I beleive this CPU is just average OCer that I have. I have not had it under cold as much as the 965 R2E combo but from the initial testing I beleive I would have been better off with a 3540 than the 975. I am hoping to get the 965 on the Classified this upcaomingw weekend to test with Ln2 this will surely tell me if the classified is that much better than the R2E or if I am just CPU limited.
