OK now im back with my new rigg, x2 4800 and watercooling.Here are my new scores. =)
WoW... you're going to shove me out of the Top 10 "L33T" club my man... or, near to it!
(I believe I am just barely "hanging on" @ this point after your post now)
* I knew that turning others onto the software tuning tricks I do might do that: That is, IF the folks testing apply them, much as most of us have the memory tunings possible when o/c'ing!
It will come @ my expense, but not @ the expense of the group.
(HOWEVER, I was NOT aware of what HydroCooled setups can do... now, we are ALL aware based on your results - thanks for them!)
You have the same CPU type I do, perhaps better RAM as well (not sure here), but you do show what HydroCooling gives you as an advantage (@ least potentially here, because I am assuming you have performed memory optimizations @ BIOS level, yes, or no??)
Try the software side as well, noted in the scorecharts @ the bottom... they do also make a diff. albeit not as large as hardware tuning can (never will most likely: Better hardware? There is NO substitute (& certainly NOT @ the performance level), not even in OS-side tuning!)
APK
P.S.=> X800, have you tried the software tricks noted @ the end of my posting of the scores? If not, do so... you WILL most likely gain another 6-12 points on your scores applying them (a few others here have, & have done so)... try it! apk

not doing so well over there getting your dual core ass toasted by some old amd single cores
