Stunning Performance
Reviewed by David. Review Posted 05/04/2010
I've installed this in a watercooled Gigabyte X58 board with 2Ghz CL7 memory. The upgrade couldn't have been simpler, replacing an i7 920 which had been used to commission the board and load the latest bios. The system now rarely exceeds 15% cpu usage, except when video processing when it will hit 100%. Highly recommended.
