Thought Id post my Cinebench 11.5 results good way to test the video cards and cpu’s to help figure out future upgrades. post your results if you get time :yes:
I was thinking an AMD Bulldozer cpu and what ever video card kicks the most ass
I have an i7 2600k @ 4.4GHz and scored a 8.7, just below a Xeon X5570 in the rankings. I’m always surprised by the performance I get out of this super cheap CPU.
Yeah excellent results with your cpu just shows you the most expensive isn’t always the best option.
The cpu in the computer I built in 08 is an Intel E8400 (dual core) over clocked to 3.8ghz it was the best bang for buck cpu at the time I done my upgrade, I see my $380 (NZ) HIS 4870 video card is only about 10 frames a second slower than the Quadro FX5800
Check out the shocking NZ price for an extra 10fps :eek:
