I also noticed a lower (better) score with running 6 threads on my Q9550, but threw it out as a "fluke" (as it was only sometimes, the rest were well into...

Thread management should be handled by the OS though, not the CPU, so it shouldn't matter whether it's a Xeon or an i7.

Therefore I'm waiting for additional benchmark results with variety parameters. (2, 6, 16, 32 threads result with -c 4 parameter. (4 repeat)) I'm at work now but when I get home I'll do some testing and put the results on here for...

got 3400, 4 thread 2 repeat X4 B50 3.8Ghz

My stock i7 920 2.66GHz (HT disabled, Turbo enabled) was right around 3900 with the 4 thread batch file on XP x64. The best I saw was 3891.
