but i live in canada so i have to find deals on newegg.ca and the i5 MOBO's are cheaper for the specs that i want
the whole living outside the US thing screws over so many people

And the i5 is just an i7 with no HT and lower memory bandwidth.
Seriously, what do you do for a living? Fast food? Computers isn't your expertise, or you would've chosen legitimate benchmarks, or at least realized that a Core i5 overclocked 1.5GHz over stock compared to a stock P2 X4 965 would obvioulsy favor the i5.
How about we compare a Ferrari to a Volkswagon next?
You do realize what the simulation was for? I don't think you do. It performs exactly the same as the i5 with the core disabled and the DDR3 memory in dual channel mode. The game benchmarks weren't simulated.. Lastly, the stock i5 processor does come at 2.66Ghz. So, please, STFU.
There is a benchmark where they run the i5 750 at 4.1GHz. This is what he is referring to. Oh, and by the way, simulations don't necessarily run like the real deal. There are simulations that report different results than those of the actual event.
Rohan23 said:Yeah, but they still showed the stock speed of the i5 at 2.66Ghz and that still beat the 965. The i5 chips are easily hitting 4.0Ghz all around and it's to show the power of the new chip. I wouldn't call the second benchmark illegitimate because it shows the stock AND overclocked scores.
