If the contest goes on long enough I may be able to participate :) I love a good pi session :)

Next couple of weeks are looking pretty full, got a new video card I have to learn as well as some other ideas I want to work on. Christmas is fast approaching as well.

Well I was thinking this can be an open ended contest. We will all just keep posting and beating previous scores :thumbsup:

Yeah its best to keep this contest running as over time with newer hardware you'll beat the older hardware.

You think the i7, i5 and i3 should be separated?

Rankings categorized and updated! Congrats to thebanik for starting things off!

We will see how the submissions go. Theyre may not be enough setups to split categories further. For now I think 3 main categories will keep it looking clean

Yeah i3's I dunno anybody that is going to get one or that they will be that popular. The i7's and 5's though will need to be eventually. Then again I dunno anyone around here with an i5 except for review purposes.

I was suprised how many people jumped on the i5 setups TBH. I really expected that to be more Dell/HP type systems. I just can't see any enthusiast wanting the reduced memory and GPU capabilities, considering there really is not much difference in price.

Yeah I don't understand it either. Not like there is a huge price difference.

Cool...I'll try to run some benches later on tomorrow....I will try it with the core2duo :good:
