INTEL i7 980 X GULFTOWN EXTREME EDITION FROM £867.98 (INC BENCHMARKS) NOW DUE 17/03

Could we get some Folding@Home benchmarks/ PPD figures

Would love to see the difference between this and a 920/920 at similar clocks
 
Fingers crossed for a multiplier locked 600 GBP one in the autumn. I'm starting to convince myself that this is a brilliant deal, can't be thinking straight
 
oooo pretty :cool: Wish I could afford one tbh, if it were 300~ I would buy it ;) A tad out of my price range lol, besides I would rather use the money on a SSD/GPU. If you got the money though I can't see a reason not to get one, overclocks as well as a 920 yet packs 2 extra cores!

about as good as a zalman extreme cooler

nowhere near as good as a noctua/megahalem

Is it N14 ? what the temperature is like with full loads of 4.20Ghz on prime with Noctua N14. Sorry to ask you this question because I am not sure if 6 cores / 12 threads does bring alots more heat than my current i7 920 d0 4.20Ghz at 4 cores / 8 threads at around 83C with my megahalem!

Im 99% sure im saying we have not tested these on a noctua N14 and i doubt short term we would look to do so either. The simple reason been we know the Megahalems are the only cooler upto the job.

Dear OCUK would you please consider replacing rjkoneill's position for me. I don't have any serious work experience and I'm not a pro over clocker BUT I really want his job! alternatively I'm happy to accept any and all top end pc components in the post to play games with and I will post on here every few hours about how much fun I'm having.

Thank you for your time :)

P.S accepting Intel core i7 980X donations.

Join the queue buddy LOL.
 
I`m so tempted just to get one of these now but i`m gonna wait another 2-3 months before purchasing one along with the rest of the components for my new complete build, just to see what's people's thoughts are on them first.
