I dropped RB's I7-2600K scores as it wasn't a good comparison as people have pointed out, due to the changes in MAME from 0.141 to 0.143u9. I was hoping to do some updated benchmarks of a I7-2600K on 0.143u9 to see what the real preformance diffence was bewteen the two I7 CPUs at the same clock speed, but we didn't have any I7 2600K system laying around, only i5-2500Ks. With a little luck we'll get the I7-2700K instock soon and I can post some direct comparison benchmarks between the two difference series of I7 CPUs.
