Where you get that from? $129 for an extreme3 I believe. Even cheaper for pro series.

Pcpartpicker only has gigabyte at best buy. They may have more but I'm on my ipad so I'm working something up quick.

I don't think you understand what in saying. There are many sites that will let you "borrow" a copy of windows

May have been a bad run before? It happens from time to time. Unless you've noticed it consistently that low. Did you have any heavy programs running at the time?

I'm going to have to do this later. Pcpartpicker doesn't have everything you can get from bestbuy.

I'm not completely opposed to 8. I used the consumer preview last summer and like how light weight it felt. I really liked running Ubuntu for that reason and it sort of felt like that experience to me. You know, except for the metro GUI and what have yous

My bad. I didnt realize you meant only best buy. Hard to keep track of the thread activity on my phone.


Stout, sorry if this has already been addressed or if it's a stupid question, but you've checked your CPU temps while running 3dmark? Just to rule out throttling...

No I haven't but I will. I doubt they are getting that hot unless I did a bad job with my thermal paste or this H70 is a big terd.

Temps shouldn't jump that much from 4.0 to 4.2 though.

That's a good question.

Also, stout, have you turned off all the power saving features like quiet and cool, spread spectrum, and APM?


Edit: here's the rest that you can turn off.

Enhanced halt state
Core c6 mode

You can disable thermal throttling too if you keep an eye on your temps
