2500k vs. regular
the regular version stock runs from 1 active cpu at 3.7 ghz to 4 active at 3.4. you can overclock them a little to get up to 1 active cpu at 4.1 ghz or 4 active at 3.8.
the k version is completely unlocked and can do up to 5.7 ghz on all 4 cores at any time, providing you haven't burned your house down by then.
i didn't want to push the voltage anymore to go past what i did, but got a pretty good overclock. i think the default voltage for these chips is 1.2 and i told my motherboard to dynamically adjust 0.15. at idle right now it's 1.0-1.2, at load i have seen it go up to 1.45. right now the fastest comp i see on dell is a factory overclock 4 ghz.
win7 experience scores -
proc 7.7
ram 7.9
graphics 7.7
gaming graphics 7.7
primary hd 7.8
i don't recall the scores before overclocking but iirc the lowest was a high 6.
top left is real time temps with min/max recorded during test
top right is intel burn test running cpus to 100%
bottom right is a video card test which pushes the card and the cpus; it graphs gpu temperatures as well while it's running
bottom left is cpu information. base multiplier times bus was 33 x 100 = 3300mhz, my overclock has it at 48 x 103 = 4944 mhz

stock heatsink
old computer heatsink. not the one i'm replacing but the one before that... i don't even know what this thing is. athlon 1200 from 2005ish? what was considered a pretty major heatsink at the time though.
comparison of old major heatsink to new... unfortunately the pics still don't really do it justice, you have to hold this thing in your hand to really understand how crazy it is. not loaded with fans here and i changed how they were loaded anyway.
here is the system with the fans fully loaded. they were spinning at the time so kind of cool i guess that the camera could catch them looking still? the white ones are 2000 rpm 120mm and move 110 cfm. the 140mm ones came with the heatsink and are quieter and don't move as much air.
