Best that i could do with my work computer, Asus R3E, X5690 @ 4.28Ghz- 23x186, Mushkin 24GB, 2 EVGA 780 non sli
A few things:
1. Why non-SLI?
2. Your single threaded score is far too low to be accurate, especially at
4.8GHz, mine's only at 3.9 and my single threaded is higher, your single threaded should be around 2200
3. Mushkin ram is crap
1. its a work computer and i run 6 monitors 3 per card
2. CPU is running at 4.28 not 4.8 and is a gen 1 socket 1366, stock score on it was 8811 with a Single thread of 1544.
3. Back when this was a new computer i went through a lot of testing with this rig. CPU was a 950 that ran at 4.6Ghz 24/7 and 4.9 for benchmarks. Tested multiple kits of ram from all manufactures and ended up on a set of mushkin 1600Mhz 6-8-6-24 that would overclock to over 2400Mhz. Tested out a dozen GTX 480 till i got a set of good OC's
Guess i've always had good luck with mushkin ram, good Mhz, low CL, and can overclock like mad men.
