Great. SoftPerfect seems to be the fastest of them all. I can't wait to try it my desktop to see how fast it goes with all my components overclocked smile.gif

Would a RAM disk help achieve better times when benchmarking superpi 32m for a competition with CPU under LN2 and stuff (I'm talking z77 to clarify)?

Doesn't it write to memory and then at the end it dumps stuff to the .txt file? I don't think it could help. If it does write to storage this would probably give you a fraction of a millisecond advantage. It doesn't take long for even the slowest hard drive to write a couple KB of data.
