Nice review, only it may read better if you put the PC05 score's not under each other but side by side?

hmmm why did u use the slowest possible memory on the Opty system? 3-4-4-8? what is that? and why different video drivers huh? i bet there are other "mistakes" like this.
very unprofessional test
anyway we shall see on 23+ July the real performance of Conroe in games.

84.56 vs 84.66... how awfulOriginally Posted by alayashu
3-4-4-8 250MHz was it's rated speed, 4-4-4-12 400MHz was the DDR2's rated Speed.
If it was so unprofessional, then maybe it can become professional if you start paying me and giving me free hardware. Until then, this review was provided with absolutely no gain to the review and you can shove it up yours if you have a problem with a guy trying to help people out.

Classy Review many thanks CompGeek Interesting enough the Conroe Takes 2nd spot in one of the last tests Call of duty I think it was...
Incredible minimum FPS difference in fear really jusifies the buy :-)
I see the mem you used for conroe testing was very slow yet still its managing to beat out the opty :-)
A truely remarkable CPU.
Again thankyou for the review very interesting read.

In F.E.A.R, did you double check the results?? It's as though SLi doesn't kick in with the AMD system at 16x12... It seems as a very extreme difference in such a GPU-intensive game...
