Hey Guys,
Here is what I ended up with:
1 x AMD Bulldozer FX-8150 8 Core Processor 3.6GHZ Socket AM3+ 125W Retail Box
1 x Spire Thermax Eclipse II LGA775/1156/1366/AM3 Performance Heatpipe Direct Touch Cooler 120MM Fan
1 x Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 AMD970 ATX AM3+ DDR3 2PCI-E16 3PCI-E1 2PCI SATA3 USB3.0 CrossFireX Motherboard
2 x Corsair CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10 Vengeance 8GB 1X8GB DDR3-1600 CL10-10-10-27 240PIN Dual Channel Memory Kit
1 x AMD Radeon HD 6950 800MHZ 2GB 5GHZ GDDR5 PCI-E 2 X DVI HDMI 2 X Mini Display Port
1 x Bitfenix Colossus Venom Edition Black ATX Full Tower Case 7X5.25 1X3.5 7X3.5INT No PS *IR-$20.00*
1 x XFX 750W PRO750W XXX Edition Single Rail ATX 12V 62A 24PIN ATX Modular Power Supply 8 *IR-$5.00*
1 x Corsair Nova 2 Series 60GB 2.5IN SATA2 SSD 270MB/S Read 240 MB/S Write
Sadly I didn't do enough research about the AMD processor before I went with it but wow I never thought it would be so sluggish.
Super PI 32M = 20m 13.978s
Can anyone shed some light on what I can do to diagnose why its running so poorly?
Thanks,
Nema
