So I got a few Processors from AMD, had weekend off because of Diwali, and was feeling a bit less lazy than usual so decided to utilize my time benching AMD Phenom II 970.

Full config of the rig below :

Processor : AMD Phenom II 970 BE
Motherboard : Asus Crosshair IV Formula
Ram : Kingston Hyper-X 2000Mhz CL7
Graphics : MSI GTX 470
PSU : CoolerMaster Real Power Pro 1000W
Benchstation : CoolerMaster Benchtable

Though Phenom II 970 has been launched a little late by AMD but its very easy to overclock and 4.2-4.4Ghz on air is possible for benchmarking which is pretty good. Everyone already knows about the capability of Crosshair IV Formula, its certainly one of the best AMD boards around, lagging behind only to its bigger cousin Crosshair IV Extreme.
My rig is still down hence only a CPUz shot for now. Will upload Superpi and Wprime results later.
