Why don't you run it on High or ultra high?

And why don't you up the voltage to 1.45V and see how far you can go with the OC?

He's checking the CPU scaling...for that, you want the graphics settings low so the game is not GPU dependent.

Clarkdale CPUs are gaining a reputation for dieing an early death when pushed too hard with Vcore without adequate cooling...I think Hey Zeus is aware of that

That is why I am keeping my Vcore under 1.45V until more people kill their 750s and we get an idea of how far they can be pushed . =)

This is way more of a GPU benchmark than a CPU one.

Actually min FPS is quite dependant on the CPU.
On a deneb 550 DDR2 I went from 34.93 (1680 and all very high) to 57 by unlocking the other 2 cores, raising the NB to 2400, clocking ram from 800 to 1036 and raising the clockspeed of the cpu from 3.1G to 3.5G.

Well said. I like what I'm seeing with the new CPU's.

Hey Zeus, what cooler do you recommend i get for my i3 530?

i have this case and don't want anything too big so i don't have to take off the side fan: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811517004

also, would this ram be good for that o'c?
