Just total sicknesssssSs! Show some Everest please!

these raw numbers look jolly exciting but they are just "empty words" if not backed up by any decent performance figures

Those of you who are perceptive will notice a few things going down. Firstly - low CPU multiplier, secondly single channel. In some cases only 1GB and in others 2GB (its all conditional). Third fact is that this is done @ 2N and at a horrible CAS; tCL will be horrific compared to CAS 8 around 2300 which some of these sticks are capable of @ 1N in dual channel. So real benching I think will be around 2300-2500 CAS 8/9 (maybe CAS 7 for cherry sticks and those who thrive on voltages for their hard-ons), depending upon your modules and the capabilities of the CPU. That all being said, people have fun chasing numbers like these for the sake of it and I expect it will become a prominent part of i5 willy waving.
The screenie I posted was by a friend btw in a cold environment (modules were at -20 or so). I think Hicookie's result was also done in a sub-zero 'chamber' around -40 (not sure but you can ask him to confirm).

Yeah i recall Gigabyte tour photos having shown the sub zero chamber they have :) Willy waving - love the term :)
