guys you are all my friends here and I value your opinions. what do you guys think of sandy bridge? Is it fun? From what Ive seen I see more people looking at batch numbers and hitting walls because they dont come alive in the cold like their intel predecessors. it kinda left a bad taste in my mouth. is the memcontroller way better than clarksdale? for example I have a i5 655k that does 5.8ghz on ln2 but mem clocks are around 2000 at 6-9-6. so now I go and buy a 2500k and and 159.00 board and hit 5.1 ghz if im lucky with a container on the cpu and ice cubes and water in the pot at 10c and then I have it maxed out and ive done every bench I could with it and it goes into my 24 /7 gaming rig which I already have a 1366 x3540 and sabertooth x58 at 4.3ghz. it seems like a very short lived thrill just because its new hardware and because there is no jump in clocks with cold then its like okay great I have this setup that does 5ghz on air and I can run ddr3 at 2100 at 7-9-7- timings but is it even going to matter? its a 24/7 rig at the end of the day and where is the fun in that?
