Wow, found an old screenshot of my i7 920 doing the BH benchmark. What a difference.

I just want AMD to perform well enough for Intel to drop their prices. :(
Wouldn't that mean AMD would jack up theirs? It's depressing to me since they had like thousand dollar FX on socket 939 and 940. If the new one is amazing we should totally get like a free pass from all the years that they've been sucking

Just a little heads up for this thread. I've been working on a new edition for weeks now. A closed alpha testing phase will be held on CF.com alone for bug and stability testing. The new benchmark is far more reliable and stable than the previous one and should be ready for an alpha release in a couple of days. Stay tuned!

A sneak peek; tests will include:
- fixes for all bugs mentioned in this thread
- Compression Tests
- Prime Tests
- FP/Int Performance counters
- The 3 original divisions in score (Multi, Quad, Single - threaded)
- A stress test (will probably make this a premium feature, development time counts a lot of hours)
- ... More to come after the alpha

Until now, the benchmark itself is ready, but the design is not yet on point, as is the stress test.

What probably might be a good idea is to change the title of this thread to *STABLE* and create a new one titled *Alpha/Beta* whichever it is.

About time I got around to testing my rig..

Should probably get back to stability tests and bring my core voltage down :oops:

1.4v seems excessively high for a Skylake CPU, mate.
If I recall correctly, Intel made some significant changes from Sandy/Ivy in terms of voltage.
I recently built a PC with i7-6700K and did 4.5GHz with 1.25v
