The disappointment was quite predictable and therefore not very dramatic, but it is still sad that Bulldozer processors ended up being so hot and slow. It was pretty clear from numerous delays and information leaks that we shouldn’t expect these processors to knock our socks off, but we still hoped for the best. It is quite possible that the next LGA 1155 processor generation known as Ivy Bridge has been postponed for an entire quarter and is due to be announced in the coming spring and not January as usual.Īfter that we were impatiently waiting for the AMD Bulldozer scheduled to be launched in summer, but AMD kept delaying them over and over and they arrived only in mid fall. As a result, we had to wait for the new fixed chipset modifications until spring, which had significantly slowed down the spreading of the promising processors. The actual Sandy Bridge CPU, in fact, turned out pretty good, but the chipsets for them contained a very frustrating bug. Everything started back in January when Intel launched their LGA 1155 processors. But the theoretical difference is about 2-6% which I think I have already stated.It looks like the year 2011 may be known as the year of unsuccessful processor launches. Well I guess it depends on if you having eggs or Cereal.Įach MB and Chipset will react differently on one MB and CPU the Cas 8 may shine on another configuration the Cas 9 may show more over all performance. Cas 8 vs Cas 9 is like do you like milk or coffee with your breakfast? Higher frequency Higher latency memory seems to show better promise on Intel platforms and tighter timings with lower frequency seems to be better for AMD. But most people just want the best no matter what and that is part of it as well.Īnd there is no yes/no or right/wrong answer because there are too many variables, but for the most part not always but most cases. The biggest difference is the extra screening it takes to make and produce a Cas 8 part and some IC's are naturally faster then other IC's (kinda relates to question 2) but the biggest difference would be if you are an extreme over-clocker then you would want the extra margin that faster IC's would offer and allow more choices for over clocking. From everything I read, it seems to be the opposite when it comes to Sandybridge. My second problem is that I cannot find any store that carries Vengeance memory in stock, they only have Dominator (probably why the store pushed it on me) and say that Vengeance memory is not as good. The main use of my computer is photo editing and some video editing (secondary).Ĭan you please suggest what you would think is best with an explanation. It is not $25-30 that will break my budget, I just do not want to buy the wrong memory again and want a very reliable system. I had narrowed down my choices to CMZ8GX3M2A1866C9, CMZ8GX3M2A1600C8 or CMZ16GX3M4A1600C9 because I did not think GT memory was necessary. My goal is to overclock the system, but nothing too crazy, but as it currently stands, I cannot even achieve 4.3. I cannot use your memory configurator because my motherboard is still not listed, so I chose the MB’s brother P8P67 and it lists the following. When I go back to the store they say it is not the memory. I installed some cheap memory, and the system overclocks fine. However, after overclocking my system slightly, my system always hangs when running prime95 for a couple of minutes.

I purchased a 2600k CPU, an Asus P8Z68-V PRO with Dominator memory (cmp8gx3m2a1600c9) as per the recommendation of the store.
