I dont get why these Phenom IIs are hardly able to go over 5k CPU points at 3.6-4 GHz, and my 9950 did 4998 at 3.35 GHz???????? Yet does not compare to the Phenom II? Any thoughts?

Because futuremark is biased to intel. Same reason a e2200 can get a higher cpu score than a 9850.

No it's not. Intel just does those types of calculations better than AMD. It's not coded with cpu bias in mind.

EDIT: To put it into perspective, this app was developed in the P4 and PD vs A64 and X2 era. Guess which cpu reigned supreme then?

More calculations per clock cycle. Futuremark goes by numbers and Intel spits them out faster. Unfortunately my water setup is STILL only half finished so no 4ghz for me.

I figured out why my machine has hit a "wall".

My machine is doing a little over 800 watts and my PSU (corsair) is only rated for 650W.

If I had 1000watt PSU I think I could hit 25,000 benchmarks with my machine.

Umm I dunno about you but on zemzimzaliben's screen shot I see the fatest system as a phenom 2 rig and it has a cpu score of 8k at 4.6GHZ, I'm seriously doubting that the phenom 2 goes from a 5k cpu score at 4GHZ to a 8k score at 4.6GHZ. Probabally something up with your settings, memory issue, voltage setting, mobo difference, something isn't meshing.

Thanks Tatty! I have now lowered the Voltage down to 1.38v and it lowered my temps a lot from 1.42v. Same OC, just increased Reference votlages and lowered Main Volts. Still more tweeking to do I think I can tighten my ram up a lot more on timings. OR continue to try and lower volts so I can get my gtx280 back up to 783/1566/2754 can't seem to hit that with the extra heat from the NB and CPU added to the loop.

I also did boot into windows at 4.6Ghz at 511x9, which I may try benching tonight depending on volts required. This is the first board I can recommend in years that isn't a DFI. Pretty excited about the score, puts me in the top 3 on Nvidia single cards.

Yep, you are noticing exactly the same as me..... as soon as you tip over the 1.4v mark, those temps start to rocket....... I am going to re-build this weekend with the Coolermaster HAF and the high powereed fans, hopefully that will allow me to bench at 4.5gig at this time of year within temp limits..... damn this HAF is a seriously BIGGGGGG case

System Specs

First attempt with I7 system and 55 nm XFX 216 core against a Phenom II and a 285

all back ground programs are open and running and my cpu is at a 24/7 stable clock as is my video card.



and here was my first attempt with a AMD phenom II DDr2 system and a 285gtx , it appears the I7 score difference is mostly CPU and the phenom seems to not bottle neck the frame rates at all, making the cpu score for games irrelevant. I expected there to be a giant difference and there isn't and I realize a 285 and 260 are not the same video cards but at these speeds they perform very similar, so this is a good comparison.

If it isn't high settings, it isn't worth playing.
