AMD phenom II X6 hexacore vs Intel i7 quad HT

[radaja]

Have we came to any conclusions yet? Vapor says its still more beneficial to go with an 860 and decent board over amd. about same price, less power and better results if I remember correctly? I am still kind of curious how the AMD's do in real world use along with wcg. I am tempted to buy a 1055T and good cheap mobo; not sure I want to drop $300 on the 1090T when an 860 is only $200 or i can just buy a cheap x58 board to play with my westmere till sr-2 releases

i'm surprised there's no definite conclusion yet. i finally got a compatible mobo with it, so i'll start putting it to work when i get home from work .

I have mine running @ stock. Once I get 7 days or so on it I'll share my results. so for it looks like 1055T @ stock = 20k. so easy math says if It were oc'd @ 4.0 ghz you'd be looking at ~ 27k. I am *hoping* to get a good board (its running on a 95w ecs mobo... has me SCARED..) and then get it on phase I wanna see > 30k.

well i will have my i7-870 crunching soon so maybe that will help with the data.im in the process of switching the WCing out and waiting for the 5870.
