So far the 2600K is $399 here in Australia and the normal 2600 version is $329, is it really worth the extra $60 for an unlocked multiplier?
It really sucks Intel decided to limit overclocking via the FSB.... WTF
so far you posted twice here in Australia, and I can't believe u got one of those snow dogs... it must be getting fried by the summer weatherQuote:

Double post deleted, didn't even notice it myself and no, its not my dog I wish I had one, I used it as an avatar because it looks cute and adorable.Quote:

Probably not really for gaming Im guessing, but benching is a different story.
:up:
W/C benching that is, I am not into Ln2,Quote:

I'm looking at that gskill 8GB 1600 set, probably enough for 4.5Ghz OC?
I too am wondering about this exact same thing. I just don't know what to do w/ my RAM purchase for the 2600K. I'm on air, don't bench, and mostly game and fold. I'm thinking about the 1600 kit of RipJaws X that just came out but they have 7 and 9 timings that differ by quite a bit of cash.Quote:

Based on this description of usage just get standard DDR3-1333, there are very few desktop workloads that show any significant sensitivity to memory bandwidth, typically performance only varies within a few percent.Quote:

yep, highly recommend this site - if ya want the best prices.Quote:

I don't know why, but I find this "almost clock for clock" comparison interesting.. http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/93?vs=289
Both Dual core, Hyperthreaded CPU's .. One's almost exactly 5 yrs older :P , and in complete contrast, was the flagship model.
That's funny.Quote:

Its ok, I live relatively to one of the stores that is usually in the top 3 price wise for all those things, so no needQuote:
