On a side note, after owning only AMD products (including the FX-8150), I recently bought a Maximums IV Extreme-Z and an i7-2600k. I've done a few 3dmark11 runs now at 4.8GHz without any errors with two 6970's @ 950/1450 and I'm very surprised by the P11.1k numbers I'm getting. And I say this because when I benched my 1090T and FX-8150 back in October, and running three 6970's @ 950/1450, I got scores of P11.5k and P11.7k, respectively. Other game benches showed more in favor of the 1090T, however.
@ polyzp, I know it takes a lot of work to put together comparisons, so thanks for taking the time. however, there's no point in trying to shine a better light on the FX-8150. It's simply not better than it's predecessor, overall. And for the price, it damn well should be.
