I'm surprised that you have such low GFlops at 3.6GHz.

With my Q9450 at 3.6GHz and DDR 1199MHz I've got higher GFlops as you can see in the screen shot in my sig.

I7 with HT on and 12Gb of ram, if he uses only 4Gb of ram he will surpass ya for sure

I don't doubt that. If he gets lower GFlops outcomes than I have with my Q9450 than there is something seriously wrong.

I get around 49.5 with all the power management turned off and some TSRs disabled. Where the i7 excels is with multi thread processing. In some reviews, they have some benchmarks where the Yorkfield does beet the i7.

But, trust me, I have a very capable computer. How do you do with CINEBENCH R10?
Or, this one? http://chuckbam.com/i7_P6T-D/Bios2/SAN-ProcArith.PNG

If I see all these scores and the difference between them I can only say that the Core i7 only benefits from the higher bandwidth with the triple channel memory.

For me it isn't worth the upgrade from my Core2Quad to a Core i7. That's what I think of it but everyone has to decide this for his own.

If I had a Q9450 (12MB L2) and a x48 MB, I would not have gone i7. But I had a Q6600 and and ASUS P5B-D 965-Express and was ready for a change. Plus, I had a buyer for it.

I don't like changing Motherboards often. I hook to much to my system.I am not a gamer, but a big time 24/7 multi-tasker with two TV cards and Security Cameras for 2 properties. I won't talk about the 6 internal harddrives and 5 external.

You probably have read this, the LGA 1366 has not been advertised on TV by Intel and will be pushed aside as a workstation platform. Sure it was pushed by the performance parts vendors. And, the review sites need something to talk about. The Mainstream to Performance Desktop platform will soon be out as a LGA-1156




And, this looks like the new D0 stepping i7 920 to me.

I ran this all Simultaneously and no crash or throttle down. I maxed out my 12 GBs of RAM Man. Prime95 does not stress an i7 very much on it's own. You can forget it is running. I ran this in my normal TSR setup. In-fact, PerfectDisk started defraging my drives at 10 PM.

I am done testing for a while.
