My best friends shop had a used one in pristine condition but his dad bought it before i could get the money :cry:
 
Hey, you guys should stop. I just got a text saying the IRS accepted my e-file and i should get my dough soon. I need to spend that money on my house not guns :roll:
 
I love my cpu, i think ill stick with i5 for quite a while and just upgrade my board and GPUs.
 
yea since i went from 965BE to I7-920 it just has been ALOT better.

the load times with windows 7 are GREAT!
 
720BE to i5 for me. Before 720 i had 955 and 940. All excellent chips but the i5 to me is like comparing an C's to DD's.

WTF! A 955 will rock an i5.....in games.
 
Wrong. i5 vs 955 at 4ghz the i5 having the better architecture and handling faster speed DDR3 stomps the 955. Not only that, but the i5 having more raw power handles higher powerd dual GPUs better as well. When comparing the 2 i had 2 280s. The i5 handled the 280s like a pimp handles his whores. The 955 struggled to feed both.
 
see this isn't fair all i got to shoot was a Vietnam era M16A2 and M9 both with iron on them
 
I dont since i own an i5 and have owned a 955 i have done testing on both and i now have the winner. I never once got 27k in 06 with an AMD rig of any kind using 2 280s. The same went for my game FPS using high res and strong AA.
 
I seriously doubt that.

I did wonder something about his issues. My 3DMark scores are near his even when I'm using a single ATi 5770 OC'd, and the cpu was only at 3.9Ghz for those tests. Still got me 18,6xx which is in the range PP was talking with his TWO 280's (18-21k).

I think he said 27k...

Beside I got 23k using two 8800GT with my cpu at 4.2GHz, and 21k for a single GTX280.

Synthetic benches mean jack.
 
With 2 280s running on my 955 i got around 18-21k. With the i5 at 4ghz i got 27k. So yea i needed more power.

This is from his earlier post, that's why I'm saying something just wasn't right. We have guys with single 4890's running 4Ghz cpu speeds getting 20k in the same test.

no multi card scaling at all 22K with a 4870X2 and 4850X2 but i assume CFX wasn't working so just 4870X2 scored

vs 20K on a 4850X2....

It's mean the cpu is seriously bottlenecked the cards. It's not that the CFX wasn't working.
 
good work friend..;)

no CFX literally wasn't working cause the 4870X2 by itself put up the same score i just couldn't find a screenie of it
