Fairly excited about the system so far.

The specs are the following.
AMD 5350 @2.5Ghz
Asus AM1L-A
12 Gigs of Crucial ballistix ram
OCZ Agility3 60GB
Crucial M500 120 GB
AMD HD7750

So far I have only run cinebench r15 with a score of 178.
I need to pickup a cheap PSU so I can bench this against my Celeron G530.

You left out the mobo you used. 2.5 is overclocked, are you sure you didn't mean 2.05Ghz (stock)?

I suspect he got the Asus board, if it's @ 2.5 ghz. It should top out at around 2.7 ghz if he can hit 132 BCLK like Flank3r did.

You beat me to that question. I didnt think there were any kabini chips at 2.5 ghz stock. Even looked it up and you are right, it is 2.05 ghz, at least at stock.

I got mine too! I knew it was small but I was surprised at how small. I hadn't seen any pictures online comparing the SOC to anything:

I am using the Asus AM1L-A board. I do a bit of audio editing and have a 4 gig ram drive for scratch/temp files. I will post some screenshots in a little bit.

Going to do some tweaking later today when I have the time. I might be able to get another 100 MHz out of this cpu. I got my Cinebench R15 score up to 194.

Not much that I did in the bios, I set the bus speed to 133 and the multiplier to 19. I also set my ram timings to 10-10-10-24-33.

I don't have any usb 3 devices, I use a single usb 2 port connected to a 10 port powered usb hub. Everything is working well so far I ran the heaven benchmark overnight and all was well.

I bumped the voltage slightly to 1.32. After using this system for several days now I am quite impressed with it. I use many tabs in both chrome and firefox (20+) in each and with 4 actual cores it is smoother with what I do than it was with my i3 3220.
