      Sounds like a very reasonable route. I think at some point you simply run into a software limitation.

        like you were saying about SU only using one core... you want that 1 core to be as big as bad as possible. the rest is cake. and it seems as if there is some size cutoff with SU as far as switching to boxed group instead of detailed group... and with this new processor it seems to make that leap with more ease. if I had it to do over I might go with the i7 2700k instead... but I dig this one.

            Isn't the 2700k the version which allows overclocking?

              No 2600 is fixed. 2600k is overclockable.

              If there's a 2700k out, I haven't heard of it yet.

                Sorry, my bad. A simple google would've answered my question. I think Kris' mention have been a dose of PEBKAC πŸ˜‰
