August 25, 201014 yr Imho i would take the numbers like they are on the box ,http://www.intel.com/products/processor/corei7/specifications.htm The with and without turbo cpuz sounds good too!(What christian said)
August 25, 201014 yr You do realize that turbo mode is 'just' an extra multiplier, right? Yep but only for few core right ?
August 27, 201014 yr I was thinking about that last night and I was wrong, why split into two cathegorie, as we can submite on CPU-Z with only 2 cores of a i7 980X ( for exembple which is a 6-core CPU ). And also without HT. So as we are able to submite with the amount of enabled core we want and with HT or without. Why weren't be allowed to submite with or without Turbo mode. But the issue was : Turbo is it stock freq or not. My Answer : no, turbo mode is not stock freq, cause he will not work on turbo most of the time. And it's like an Auto-OverClocking from the Bios/chip to set an extra multiplier when we need 100 % of the CPU.
August 27, 201014 yr I say go by what's on the box. The rated frequency doesn't really matter much for HWBot anyway, if you can't OC past the turbo frequency you're doing it wrong.
