Hello, I created an account because I could not find anything on this.

I got an i7-4820k the other day and have been testing it. Almost all sources i have looked at say that it should be scoring in the 10k-13k range on the physics test but mine is scoring at most ~9600 and a lowest of ~6500. I have tried many different settings in the bios and have ranged my OC from 4.0Ghz--5.0Ghz with little difference in the results.

I have an ASUS Rampage IV Extreme, which I plan on selling, and I'm wondering if it could be the board. It appeared to be in good physical condition with no bent pins.

Yeah from what I've seen my CPU should be scoring higher, not that high but not half of what it should be doing.

I opened up my computer today and took out the CPU to check for damage, it appeared to be in perfect condition. The board however had 1 pin that looked a little strange.

Here's a picture: http://i.imgur.com/eF0ACnv.jpg It's about the left middle pin.
