btw i heard someone say gigabyte hav sXXk RMA problem wo.....
btw i use gigabyte b4 send for RMA for 3 month until i cannot tahan go keep call and call and call only get back my board
now using Asus.....

U r not mention what benchmark did u use..

Doesn't work like that. For quad core, you need a software/app that is multithreaded, meaning that it is programmed to run a lot of threads/task simutaneously. For now, only a few programs are programmed for the quad e.g. folding programs....

Let's look at an analogy. Say you and your friends wanted to build a new computer. You are the program and your friends will receive the task of what to do (a thread). If you hand out only one task at a time (a single-threaded application), then the process of building the new rig would be slow. If you hand out many task at a time (a multi-threaded application), then the process would be faster. However, note that even if you assigned all the members to a task simultaneously, the process of building the rig would not necessarily be 4x faster as each may have to wait for the other to complete a task.

This is true in the computer world. Dual-core is not 2x faster then single-core and Quad-core is not 2x faster than dual-core due to various reasons.....

why everybody juz talkin about Asus n Giga ? How about Msi P35 board ?

its onli cost 350 alot cheaper.

but i hav a question here ? isit mean msi cheap = msi performance lousy

compare to the other two branded ?

if i am nt overclocker but i am studdent use the pc on graphic design and

plan 2 take E6750 + asus en 8600gt 256mb silent + kingston D2 667mhz 1gb x2 with msi P35 board isit ok ?

Some benchmarks to show why the E6750 is still the best bang for buck CPU for current games (and probably many near future games too!)....

Note the performance of the ATI x2000 series cards too....

Old news... BTW... Gigabyte's P35's FSB wall is around 515... on fan cooling... i dare not venture further than 500 cuz my E6300 goes up to 65C at 500FSB...

mine still setting at 400FSB x 6~8 ...Vcore only 1.076 is that stable? or should i up abit more?

using GIgA P35-DS3

400 FSB should be aite and stable enuff for most P35 mobo's. Gigabyte P35's works well with it

run OCCTPT you will know whether is stable enuf.....

here r many burn hardware software , orthos ,prime 95,cpu-burn in,
