My new scores with my i7-3970X Extreme



your rig costs $4000!
mobo $350
ram $250
ssd $400
cpu $1000
gpu $2000
that gives you a performance/cost ratio of 14488/4000 = 3.622

my rig cost $600
MOBO - $50
GPU - $200
SSD - $130
RAM - $60
CPU - $150
my performance/cost ratio is 4186 / 600 = 6.977

since mine can play every game on high i think im content. instead of buying parts im going to learn overclocking and see what improvements i cant find.

He only has one GTX 690, which as far as I know costs $1000.



correct me if im wrong... the link shows two cards... what am i missing?

"It's actually just two GPUs (I only have one 690, but it counts as two cards). If I was running Quad 690 SLI, I would knock my current scores out of the ballpark! Basically, dual 7970s can take 1 690 because just one of those cards are plenty of competition for it."

If he was running dual 690 cards, then I don't think my dual 7970's would be able to beat his score.



Ooooh.. then 14488 / 3000 = 4.829 thats more reasonable
