If you got the money, why not go straight for quad core. This processor is only worth to people that want to get performance for budget price tag.

SLI doesn't mean you will get 2x performance of single card. SLI just give you 20% more performance than single card. Might aswell take that money buy better single graphic card.

Its not THAT bad, it requires driver support for any particular game to get the most out of it. Its not like only 20%, if that so why do they bother with Quad SLi and such? What I mean is, driver plays big role for multi GPU to shines

I know but plus heat factor, power consumption, its not worth it. At least for me.

yeah but my mobo only allow 12x multiplier..

QUOTE(ericpires @ Nov 29 2008, 10:46 AM)
Will the e5200 perform well with no OC? just normal only? or must OC to get max performance?

Of course it perform well with no OC...right now i just use stock clock but OC-ed the ram a little....

Go for e5200..use lower voltage and its 45nm mean less heat and better efficiently...

hey guys, what are suitable vcore to run e5200 at 3.6ghz and 4.0ghz?

Ya, i managed to reach that level too, but sumting weirdo will happen if i set above 3.15Ghz

My P35 DS3 rev1.0 would power on for a 1-2sec than immediately self power off, than back on after 1-2sec later 
with all overclock setting remain & happily continue loading as normal

It happen every time during cold boot...

I tried tweakin it to many different settings but it still happen  rclxub.gif

What's wrong eh? Anyone facing this issue b4?

I'm on 3.3ghz on Stock Cooler. Temp is okay but you need to play with vcore slowly. If increase too much, its won't pass 3dmark06...just "sedang-sedang".... tongue.gif
