Nah don't go for LGA 2011 - pointless as LGA 1155 is all you need. An i7 3770K is faster at stock than an i7 3820 remember, and the 3770K can overclock.
It's easy finding 1155 boards, especially in the US where you live.
Newegg.Not really. Lol. I'm in small town where no computer part near us.
Z77 runs cooler and has native USB 3.0 support and of course it's newer - Z68 is still very viable though. I have a Z68 board myself and it's great. I'd go for Z77 if I were buying new though.So, which one is better Z68 or Z77?
This is off topic, but...
Newegg.

Here are mine:
Light Benchmark @ stock 3.4GHz
Heavy Benchmark @ 4.7GHz
Thanks! And mannnn I didn't see the new version. I'll do it later, too lazy to overclock again
My bad.This version is not finished yet remembered, I'm not sure why SmileMan even released it into the wild at all. There's still some work that needs doing on it.
You can try the new version and let us know what your score is if you like but remember the new version is a beta and still has issues which I am going to get round to fixing soon. Looking at fixing the issues on Monday and re-releasing soon after then.Thanks! And mannnn I didn't see the new version. I'll do it later, too lazy to overclock again
Sounds to me like you may be using the 32-bit app. You can download the 64-bit one here http://www.mediafire.com/?bsd7xnm5z3b6q46 but we're releasing a new benchmark very soon anyway.
I was using 64bit. Has this been resolved or do i need to take off ht?
I seriously doubt that. unless it was one of the 180nm Willamette @ 1.3GHz on Socket 423. Even then, it should beat the P3m just based on clock speed.
Toughbook ran today, not sure if it takes the top, but it did make a good effort at being slow
Soft:
Heavy:
And from way back, a Pen III will easily outrun a first gen Pentium 4, Pentium 4 was a crap architecture, and if you do want to do a truely slow run, you will find one of those chips, which seems to be what happened. So yea, pentium iii mobile is indeed faster than a Pentium 4, based on this benchmark...so you aren't totally broken.
