@Taipan:
Yep - contemplating a system upgrade myself from my early model i7. I haven’t gone to 4.33 as yet and performance on my current 4.32 is good, so I might exercise some patience while this gets sorted out.
Would you mind describing your setup in some more detail please ? I see you run sweetFX… How about any other software that you do or don’t run, or your video setups ( like AA etc ). Sorry to bother you but you seem to have a really solid setup…

Gets a good clean out once a month, and a polish….its a well oiled machine.;-)

Hope this helps, cheers.
