Hey guys,

Starting to play with Ivy Bridge, and I must say, I like it!
This is my first chip, and it's no where near as strong as some others, but you can still have some fun with it.

Max CPU-z 6574Mhz (all be it for about 5sec before it black screens)

These are really just some fast benchmarks at the start of my testing, but it gives you an idea of what even an average chip will do.


I'll start with 3D Mark 01, as these days it really is a CPU test, I can still recall the day I hit 10K for the first time!! And how there was very few in the word that had done that at the time.
Now I'm a little higher than 147K with better chips over 160K!
