Its on by default by every Intel mobo I've used... and one of the first to go as soon as I start the OC'ing
And besides, it turns the multiplier on/off depending on CPU use and it certainly is at correct speeds when playing a game

if you disable it, fine for you, but that doesn't mean its of by default.
The screen at pczilla shows a stock Q6700 @ 2,66 ghz and to some certain people here crysis is only "half multithreaded" so a quad should be more then enough to satisfy crysis.
i have just tested crysis at 1900x1200 NoAA very high x64bit Dx10 o my rig and i get around ~59 FPS Max ~24 FPS min and ~37 FPS avg
so i guss GTX 280 is 2x8800GTX
that's useful to know.Quote:

Forget about it man, the fact is that MOST boards have EIST enabled by default, that's why we found so strange your comment :p:Quote:

Insane bit of gear, still I would expect 2 x GTX280 to get over 60fps
oh yeah that explains the fps. :D
i didnt use crysis benchmark tool i just played Act1 with EVGA Precision and recorderd the max and the min fps i see on my paper:rolleyes::p: let me download crysis benchmark try it and get back to you
rofl, ive never seen a board with it turned off by default. its a part of the cpu thats promoted as a good thing so why turn it off by default?Quote:

With Speedstep, YMMV. Some people have reported instability with it while running an overclocked CPU, others haven't. Right now, my daily OC with my Q6700 is 3.4GHz, and I'm running the machine EIST on but not C1E, so my voltage will remain at its constant but the CPU throttles itself down to 2.04GHz. No instability so far.
For people who run distributed computing apps like Folding at Home that loads the CPU at 100%, EIST/C1E won't do anything anyway, because the CPU never gets a break (I run it at school where my tuition has already paid for the elctricity). But for people who run their computers 24/7 but don't fold or crunch, there's really no reason not to if your machine doesn't lose stability with either of them on, and you'll only find that out through testing on your own system. But the general rule is C1E should only be turned on if EIST is, someone with a 4GHz overclock probably won't be stable if their voltage drops too far from the set value.
And yes, Speedstep in one form or another is on by default...otherwise there wouldn't be so many topics on "WHY IS MY CPU ONLY AT 1.6GHz?!!?!!? HELP Pl0x!!!!one!"
This score in Crysis are authentical ... i got very similar FPS on my GTX 280 ...
GTX 280 is not brutal powerfull card! performance is good, but i expected many more ....
According testing of Radeon HD4850 in CF i can say - radeons are better then GTX 280!
Wow crysis benchmark really deffrent from Act1

Really, they are only €156 each..Quote:

As for the 280, Nvidia is currently in a bit of a dilemma on what to do with the G92b and might cripple them just to keep the 260 and 280's superiority. (If they make it too slow, they make the difference between the G92 and the 2x0 series bigger, but also lose out to the 4870, but if they make it too fast, the 260 could be threatened as well as the 280 if you put two of them in SLI).
In my opinion, the 9900 GTX will be about 10% faster at max than the 9800GTX, but run cooler and oc higher due to the new process. Beyond that, it won't be worth upgrading over the 9800 GTX :S

crysis in the "snow part" is a lot heavier than the gpu test...
test there.
You are wrong ... so far from reality ... of GTX 280Quote:

ORB please stop teasing................ post some benchamrks please.. :p:
so will there still be a 9900GTX or will it just be the GTX 280/260?
9900GTX = G92bQuote:

whats the use of the 9900GTX if we already have the GTX280/260?
