    As Los Alamos director J. Robert Oppenheimer watched the demonstration, he later said that a line from the Hindu scripture the Bhagavad Gita came to mind:
    "I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."
    Test director Kenneth Bainbridge in turn said to Oppenheimer, "Now we are all sons of b**ches." wiki

    I have my fingers crossed. Seems that whenever I buy at launch I get sick chips, so lets hope I keep on a roll

    Would this outperform a q6600 @ 3.6ghz? w/o extreme overclocking of course.

    Ooh and hi. This is one of the best tweaker forum i have seen so far

    For example a core 2 quad achieves a higher 3dmark 06 score but in games the e8400 would get higher fps or not?

    Yes, for games a overclocked e8400 is better and faster more FPS than a lower clocked quadcore.

    With a decent wolfdale chip, its possible to run (at or around) 5Ghz @ 1.5/1.6ish Vcore for daily use of surfing, working, benching or testing hardware...without elaborate cooling.
    A simple decent single phase will be suffice

    Great forum and great results Dumo!

    What a forum! Everything you could want to know. Looking to build a new PC around one of these E8500 chips. With your results on this Max Extreme - should I send my DFI X38 back? 5Ghtz - UNREAL!

    I'll keep 'er then - I'm just looking for a really descent board to get a good 24/7 4Ghtz OC out of this 8500 Wolfdale. I am just now looking to move to a dual-core chip. This FX-57 system has been flawless for me at 3 Ghtz for 28 months. And I paid $799 for the chip at NewEGG at that time!

    Hardware is just soo bloody cool!

    AMD FX-57 w/ TR XP-90
    ABIT AN8-ULTRA
    2GB (2x1) OCZ Plat Rev.2
    eVGA 7900GTX SC
