Too many cores
Lets see the 8 core ones now.
The 8 Cores will be AMD - doubt they'll keep up with a quad core intel TBH

13317 990X HT on 5GHz (200 X 25) RAM 2000Mhz @ 7,8,7,20 1T. (and beats a 3960x @5.0 )

Don't think so
3960X @5.0 RAM 2400mhz 9-11-11-25-1T 96

On a serious note I own an i7 980EE and at some point I will be getting a better cooler on it, as it is still a very fast CPU.
What are you using to get yours to 5.0ghz
Never paid anything to benchmarks, the likes of setter, andyOcuk, me, etc, had a great time having a good laugh competing against each other using a couple of benchmarks that's all their fit for.
Custom water.
It'll do 5.4GHz on H20 (Heavily cherry picked ES)
Its a 990X not a 980X
I'd assumed your score was 11334 on your first post that stated 5GHz.
What u using cooling wise mate?
Also be interesting to run the memory benchmark as your timings are very slack at 2400MHz compared with what those sticks'll probably do at 2000MHz. Be interesting to see the difference between raw speed and timings![]()

i5 3210M = 4080Not bad for a stock laptop CPU.
Just out of interest, what sort of difference does the hyperthreading make? Anyone fancy running their 2600/2700 with ht turned off?
Time for an old timer CPU to show what it's got.
Q9650 @ 4.2GHz - 6412Not too shabby.
2700k @ 4.2 without HT - 8562
2700k @ 4.2ghz - 10632
