That's a nice performance bump from the new i7, thanks for posting it. There is something wrong with novabench cpu percentile rank in that benchmark in your next post. Here are my latest tests posted last night.

Message 31006356

I never registered my novabench results but in passmark my tests gave me 93rd and 96th cpu percentile and that's on a 6-core 5 year old xeon chip. Your chip is only 4 cores but clocked higher, newer and more efficient than mine. I'd guess on passmark you'd be in the 90s percentile, as you said that's one of intel's top consumer chips.

Even more important to my messages over the past hours, when is last time you rebooted pc and turned off all the crap and other stuff booted up on startup? I know this may be insulting to you but trust me on the score front. Please run the clean tests and get back to the board. Run the test several times and only offer your best score but I suspect that will cure your current low cpu percentile score, more testing. My workstation steal was awesome, but apples and oranges to compare to your system after such a huge cpu upgrade.

Awesome work, thank you for posting!
