I did the automatic clock and it took it to 3875ghz and thought it could do more so I tried and its stable at 4.107 at 1.4 volts. Thats a whole 1000ghz increase. I tried 4.3 and it worked but it didnt get much 3dmark 2011 love. I tried 4.5 and it wouldnt even post. But at 4.1 it runs smooth, cool, and stable. I ran prime 95 all night and didnt have a single problem.
I have gamed with it and DiRT will not play even at all stock settings for some reason, but DiRT 2&3 work just fine. Thats all I have played so far with it for its pretty much all I play.
Am I happy since I paid $189 shipped for it, you bet. Huge improvement over my old X4 940 cpu in games and number crunching. Today I am to get my 2nd HD6870 to cf this rig and Im hoping to see an even bigger improvement.
OH, I have done makeMKV with it and I see about a 5-7 minute faster decoding time.
But all in all, Im very happy, this cpu rocks.
