That has done it for me, a phenom will for sure be my next upgrade. I was debating the easily overclocked Q6600 vs waiting for the B3 for a long time...with these clocks and the above statement....that does it for me =)
I could care less about FPS if the game is all choppy for no reason I can tell....smoothness is what ranks highest on my "best platform for gaming" charts =)
Although, I do fold and was hoping for some decent folding numbers SMP from phenom @ 3ghz....I can only hope =)
Thanks again Tony =)
PS....just wanted to note...guys take a look at the 7 reviews left on newegg's site for 9850's ... seems those with these chips are hitting 3ghz on air EASILY at stock volts and higher with a bit of a challange. One guy apparnetly ran 3.5ghz in 3dmark06!!! .... if this trend keeps going and those posts are legit....DAMN GO AMD!!!!!
