Does this look about right for 4.4ghz?
So Easy how does the system feel compared to your X58 rig. Does it feel overall faster in day to day use?
Very interested in your thoughts mate.
I'm very close to going over to the dark side . . !

It is nice to see you actually decided to upgrade your rig mate to a Haswell-E and your happy
you did the upgrade and not regret it.
A few pages back it was like you where taking the p**s out of the platform saying there is no
performance difference really to be had upgrading to a Haswell-E compared to your x58 rig.

Yeah I guess if you can sell your old stuff and get a few quid back its not so bad. Even if you don't the outlay is not that bad if your going to keep it like we did X58. Should keep you sorted (if going by x58) 5-6 years easy!
You'll just need to upgrade the gfx every now and then when the good stuff comes out.
Nice to hear you can feel the difference with normal use.
I'm definitely upgrading now as you've done it! Haha

Easyrider, do you have a turbo mode setting or similar in the bios on your board? When I had enable it on mine,
I got a 4.0GHz CPU speed from it out of the box without any manual overclocking needing done by my myself.
I had first set XMP profile for my memory then enabled the turbo mode.

How you getting on with the overclocking Easyrider. Getting there mate?

It's basically what my 3970x does at 4.7ghz.
So it's not bad, but Haswell E should be doing 1300 on six cores really.
Soldato
So a 5930K overclocked to 4.4Ghz should be scoring 1300 in Cinebench R15 right?
Does not seem that much more of an increase over my [email protected] - that scores just over a 1000!
