Have you checked other benchmark results?
LinX/y-cruncher seems to count on some cycle-based timers, which might cause wrong execution time and thus wrong GFlops.
You could try y-cruncher, which run-to-run delivers a more stable peformance than LinX.
(and count realworld time against the reported execution time)



It seems that LinX doesn't scale (well) with 6-cores.
So it might result in a very unstable GFlops because of resource contention, etc.

Thanks will fiddle with y-cruncher in a bit

Leeghoofd, Thank you for the bios pics and for taking the time to help try and figure this all out. I really appreciate it.

Tried some 06 on both boards, same basic setup, fresh install on both. I have these in 2 seperate cases both watercooled so it is a pita to switch out all hardware. I have a pair of 5870's and 2 920 do's so this was run using 2 different cpu's and gpu's but all clocks and gfx settings were the same. Ran 06 3 times on each board and these are the best scores of the 3. I was mainly looking to see the cpu score.

Good to see you got the GFLOPS issue sorted

On another note I flashed BIOS2 to 802 and need to reactivate windows... When I go back to 704 it works fine as per usual though
