You sod off, you been telling me to buy things all day long!
Azzzzzaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!!!
Tell us the good news. Tell us what you bought
Heh, actually I too am glad that I didn't go i5

I think the I5 hype has died down now. Fun day
Subliminal, aren't you going to join the easy shuffle?
It's only been released today!I too am glad that I didn't go i5
No, pretty disappointed that we all spoilt this thread though.
It started off so well
DDR3-1600 CAS 7 8.8 ns Dual (128-bit) 12,800 MB/s
DDR3-2000 CAS 9 9.0 ns Dual (128-bit) 16,000 MB/s
DDR3-2133 CAS 9 8.4 ns Dual (128-bit) 17,064 MB/s
It's only been released today!
If you come to the forums often your gonna be exposed to some serious i5 hype! . . . . . wonder what i5 would do for your milkyway@home results!
I give you three days max!
There is a thread here for i5 http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18052218
that one aint got any benchies tho
rjkoneill I've got a question for you!
What are the different memory frequencies available to you when running the Lynnfield at stock? . . . . also overclocked?
I'm trying to work out which memory matches up nicely!
Code:DDR-1600 CAS 7 8.8 ns Dual (128-bit) 12,800 MB/s DDR-2000 CAS 9 9.0 ns Dual (128-bit) 16,000 MB/s DDR-2133 CAS 9 8.4 ns Dual (128-bit) 17,064 MB/s
Its clear that no one likes me
Its become a who do I like best poll

It's the Geil Ultra that caught my eye . . . 2133MHz is insane!
pushed the dominator GT [known to do 2100mhz on x58 @ 9-9-9-28 2T] to 2000mhz
but i am still familiarising myself with it
the imc seems to be stronger than that of the majority of i7's i have seen [recent 920s have memory controllers that struggle to top 1800mhz]
i think it could be reality when the bioses get up to speed
asus are doing a good job so far but the gigabytes seem lacking on the memory divider fronts
my honest opinion is that 1600mhz memory is more than enough
heck i run my 2000MHz OCZ blade at 1600Mhz 24/7
only because i can get it at near ddr2 timings
i think anything more is wasted and presents little gains per £
You may be right but having used DDR2-1200 I was hoping for more when switching to DDR3my honest opinion is that 1600mhz memory is more than enough
What I'm thinking that as Lynnfield is dual-channel it may respond well to the increased bandwidth!

If you do some game benchmarks at 800x600 with everything the same apart from memory frequency you will see what I mean, taking the obvious GPU bottleneck out the equation shows some good gains with the faster memory!
It's the memory that really put me off the i5 ...
