One of my professors had this cpu up to 4.8 GHz earlier today with liquid cooling.
definitely go wtih the ASUS board if you're gonna go with this processor
Got to say a little about Windows 7 , it can run on lower systems decent, but really. It is made for quad cores and DDR3 so if you had a 5.9 on Vista you do not have it on Windows 7. Just a little heads up on that so I would not try to build a system now to run windows 7. I am thinking it will be like ME going to XP.
#19 every version of windows that ever came out has been promised to run faster than it's predecessor. Which one really has?
Good benchmarks at [H]ard|OCP:

P6T-D or Rampage II Extreme!
At the moment, even with the cheapest i7 processor, the machine is going to be very expensive compared to an equivilent Core2Duo/Quad. The motherboards and the RAM are far too expensive with the i7. Wait a while and everything will cheapen...

The motherboards are comparable in price to the high-end motherboards for current core 2 duos and quads. Take a look at the rampage extreme vs the rampage ii extreme... very close in price.
That being said, you're basically limited to a very high-end board if you want to build an i7 machine right now; and you're going to pay for it.
DDR3 isn't too terribly expensive, but the triple channel kits sure are. I paid $280 for a 3x2GB patriot kit that's specced to run at the stated voltage limit from intel (1.65V). Hopefully the ram voltages will drop, and the price as well.
How do these compare to Core 2- are they a leap forward or just a baby step?
I find it ironic that you listen to Winderz related propaganda on a Podcast!
wow wish i had more $$ seems like a good deal
what is the benchmark on this thing, anyone know how this compares to the rest of the market...I heard good things about this, but never a benchmark
Excellent deal...but I am tapped out of my tech budget for this year
board prices are stupid expensive, this is totally a later purchase for most.
The fastest I've seen the 920 stable with water cooling is ~4.25Ghz -- which is ~ 60% over stock. Really an amazing OC.
"I heard good things about this, but never a benchmark "
If you're too dumb to find a benchmark, you're too dumb to understand a benchmark.
And while I'm giving free advice to someone so desperately in need...
If you don't think too good, don't think too much.
ding ... we have someone in #38 that understands
