Load power is intimidating, but apart from that Im surprised how good the cpu looks. A few should look again at their Phenom opinions. Not many benchmarks with high oc's of k10 around, so I thought I'd share it with the group.

peace out

That review seems weird. The memory tests especially. How does a Q6600 keep up with let alone have more memory bandwidth at stock than a Phenom? Last test I saw the read speeds of a Phenom all hovered around 9000MB/s+ not 7000MB/s+.

Something is wrong with that review. As I said, Phenom should have better memory bandwidth than C2Q.

Other than that, the reason why you don't see many reviews with OCed Phenoms is because the OC is different per chip. Some will only hit 2.8GHz, Some 3.2GHz. Others wont be able to movee much past 2.6GHz.

Maybe that will change with Deneb.
