super pi is a single threaded benchmark thats why it benefits from the lack of HT.

You can run your I7 on one core if possible and probably get a quicker time thatn on 2 or 4 cores.

Ive already tested that with my Phenom.

Playing around with the i7 as a dual. Got it at ~4GHz since that seems to be a normal OC. Left the 260 at stock. Since I am bored and have nothing better to do will go and run the benches with my 9600 GSO just for fun.

not a bad dual core I would say :toast:

Thanks for sharing!

i see it as a Damn Fine Investment.

Why are most of the X58 board I see only going with 6 expansion slots instead of 7? Puttin a PCIe 1X above the first gfx slot would prove really useful to me if/when I go i7.

There are, GIGA X58 boards.

And MSI...

Oh I thought you meant if it ran, before it wasn't running for me thats why I assumed thats what you wanted to know.
