10-20FPS on the desktop?
Yeah, even though an i5-2500K will smoke it, it's still pretty potent.
Look, I've got an E8500 at 4.11GHz which is half of yours and it's still blisteringly fast at everything. Pair it up with a GTX 580 and it blasts through all the latest games.
Of course, it doesn't stop me from wanting to upgrade it to the latest tech.

Is that it? I'm sure I've seen benchies ages ago where it was much faster. And they overclock to 5GHz on the stock cooler too, which will give them a serious edge.
Perhaps I've forgotten the benchies now. I'm going out now, so I'll look it up later.

Yes check out ECH's thread above. the benches are good and he shows they are not too far apart. the Q9650 is still a great chip.
