For wprime 1024M the 2600K with crappy RAM performs 2.5 seconds slower than the BEST i7 920 both at 5.288

Not sure how much mem makes a differnce in wprime. Triple channel might be huge, but all the submissions so far on the 2600K are at 1600-1800 8-8-8 or 9-9-9

Once guys learn to tune them up... I think we will see better efficiency.

TBH I am surprised it is that close though. What surprises me more is that the 2500K is holding its own against the 2600K in pifast and spi. I thought cache was king for those short tests.
