Phenom 9500 w/ MSI K9A2 Platinum

Yeah- I've even posted about the CPU score there- it's right there IMO (per clock of course- unfortunately the clocks aren't getting high enough).

How much of a hit do ya take by having different core speeds(I know Core 0 is a bad clocker for you LM)?

For complete 3DMark run it varies, sometimes it's running tests mostly on higher clocked cores and sometimes on lower clocked . I noticed that core 0 is preferred by most single threaded apps, but not always .... I had one run with core 0 and 3 @2520MHz, core 1,2 @2640MHz which gave me 13764 points. If you compare it to all 4 cores @2640MHz result - 14386 points - it's massive difference. It's a result of running all game tests on slower cores though. CPU test wasn't that much off .
On the other hand the 2 runs from my previous link which are different only by Core 0 lower clock aren't that far off (14006 vs 14273). All because Game tests were using Core 2 mostly!! It's a gamble with single threaded software!! We need some clever tool to prioritize Cores for applications or proper Multi-Threaded games .
