Cinebench R10 Results....

One more thing, I noticed that the scores fluctuate from test to test. I wonder what a normal fluctuation is?

actually you are at approx 30000 cb
i am at 5000 cb
so a 2600k OCd 4.5ghz is 6X more power than a C2D OC 2.93ghz at rendering

I find it amazing to look back about 5 years (2006) and realize
that the Core2Duo was just coming out and the Athlon FX was about
the fastest consumer desktop chip at the time and cost close to a
thousand UD dollars if I remember right

Nowadays a $100 cpu would crush the FX
Nowadays a $100 video card would destroy a $500 card from 5 years ago
You can buy a I3 Sandybridge for about $125 USD
A Intel Atom dual core at 1.8 would destroy a Pentium D 3.73 from five years ago

I am 40 years old and cannot believe the pace that tech especially price to performance has reached

Seriously my cell phone is as powerfull as a desktop from 5 years ago

I dont think I have seen technology progress so fast in such a short time
in my whole life

And remember when I was 7 the Atari Pong machine for the home was the big deal
and the Atari 2600 game console was just coming out
I remember using rotary dial phones,no cable,color TVs were too expensive so we had B&W, basic function calculators cost $150 and that was a cheap one
8 track was the audio format at the time

So when I see that I cant believe how tech has progressed in 5 years you can see where I am coming from.

5 years ago people were still buying a CRT TV now it is the 3D tvs that are hot
5 years ago a PSP was the hottest handheld and now a 3DS with no glasses 3D and a camera that can take 3D photos is out
5 years ago you were happy with a phone that had a camera and now they are mini
PCs with OSes on them

And 40 is not really old (except to a 20 year old LOL)

Alright well at my current settings (3.867ghz, 1624mhz CL8 RAM) I scored:

OpenGL: 9527

Single CPU: 5448

Multi CPU: 19219
