its in my sig. it is NOT at all tuned atm due to problems with the MB.

anyway i did the math so that i could see what clock for clock difference would be.

the only two tests I duplicated were cinebench and pov-ray. all anand's other tests were proprietary and he does not give the info needed to duplicate them, but I saw the exact same result on pov-ray. anands penryn results were way too low on this one as well.

is pov-ray also 10% better on vista 64??

Man, if two different systems only have a cpu in common then there mobo, memory & hdd will be different and thats only the hardware, You then have software rangeing from difrent bios,drivers,operating system, apps, app revisions etc.

How you are stunned that any of this could cause a 10-20% discrepancy is stunning me.
