My new one E8600 dual-core yeah . hope she is good and if i can do 4.0-4.3 that will be nice, but is this MOBO screwing up CPU's and/or degrading them FAST.
Do you think that you might be stressing your mobo and cpu too much running linpack etc all the time when it is brand new? I mean this program puts on abnormal amount of load onto a system. I like to treat my new hardware like a new car lol, give it a bit of time to settle in before pushing it like mad! For me though memtest, orthos and occt is enough.
