FYI, interesting findings for Gulftown 6C12T testing, prime95 small fft stresses the 980X more than linx 0.6.4 does. From Powermate wattage metter prime95 results in ~10% more power consumption measured from the wall than linx does. This was the opposite for Bloomfield i7 9xx series where linx was ~10% more power consuming than prime95. Could be linx isn't properly utilising all 6C12T of the i7 980X yet ?
