nice summation Hipro. Now that you placed all teh chipset scores together and listed some 3d score I'm willing to give DDR3 another chance. I suppose its not bad for early stuff though I honestly wanted more out of a new ram standard. I'm thinking with x38 and 2nd generation DDR3 (higher clocking) we'd be talking about 12m 30s spi32M at 3600mhz...How does it scale with a higher clocked cpu?
