Sweet, nice to see a wide range of drivers benchmarked.
Welcome to the 4ghz+ club, what core voltage are you running ? (my E8500 is an early Engineering Sample and runs on above average voltages, I'm waiting for the release of the E7300 and E8600 to replace it something a little less voltage hungry.)
John IV [MameUI64]:
Asus P5K-E Wifi 445*9
4G Corsair DDR2-800 XMS2 memory 5x5x5x12 @1.9V [same memory from my e6400 that went to 3.5Ghz]
Vcore 1.4V
PCI = 100
Everything else on auto.
45 at idle 67 under load.
Even bumping the NB/SB voltages I couldn't get stable at 4.2.. got into Windows but Orthos, Prime, and Mame's benches didn't pass.. could be my memory. Might try some ddr2-1066.
Sadly the latest version of Mame w/ the debugger rolled in has impacted high end games vs .125u6, but I've been keeping Aaron and RB in the loop. :)

One more bench run:
Cleaned up and collected from multiple machines on .126.

I need to upgrade from my xp1800+, but I currently have a really tight budget. This ad from fry's fits in my budget. http://www.netaffilia.com/ads/electronics/frys/Intel-Core-2-Duo-Processor-E7200-ECS-GF7050VT-M-Motherboard/2008/07/11/33900
You guys are the experts on these; what do you think of this setup? I would want to use the onboard graphics with soft-15khz. Reviews on newegg say the mb has few features, but is a good overclocker.
A friend is coming to visit from San Jose this weekend, so Fry's is finally an option.
Thanks,
Paul
