it's a p8700, i did a quick 03 run and came ~100marks short of your gold, i'll definitely work harder on benchs he's holding gold

I checked your entries, you have a SiS chipset as well, so in fact you have the same setup essentially. BUT you got a significantly better efficiency out of it than I did, good work!

Question for the ram experts: Which Corsair kit should I buy for benching on p55 platform? GTX1 or GTX2 - Looking at the specs it's tough to decide... Would be so nice to have sponsorship, these things are expensive...

If you want to use them on Clarkdale both kits will be enough to reach the limit of your IMC imho. GTX1 should be the highest bin though.

I am!

Symptoms: no more 24/7 computers in a pretty case, everything is setup on the floor under office desk, cables everywhere, wife complaining, 1 room in the house dedicated to computer hardware, liquid nitrogen dewar as a bed side table; more keyboards and mouses that one will ever need, at least 10 boxes of kneaded rubber, at tons of trips to ace hardware to buy screws, nuts and bolts, at least 2 changes of motherboard a day, xs forum daily posts, hwbot daily checks, more wife complaint's, among many others.

Cure?

I'm sorry, there is no cure.

warning be heard - brace for ignition and a hold on to your arses

I'm waiting.

Could somebody PM me the best OS and how to run AM3? My score with XP and my 5870 wasn't up to par with other guys scores on hwbot by 20k.

Did you check if the other guys are running higher memory speed of tighter timings? AM3 likes memory bandwidth, possibly Ryan can give you some more tips.
