Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
Yep - I was psyched. However, enable the Ethernet port and I'm having to use 64 or 128 sample buffers .....
All four blue 192 I/O s are cranking right along :)

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
Some of the new Intel Ethernet chips let you adjust the filtering of network
interrupts so the processor is interrupted on different schedules. Under the advanced section of the device manager driver tabs for the controller. Might help.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
I know this is a windows based forum but I just built a brand new Hackintosh with the ga-z87x-ud7-th mobo and i7 4770 K processor. If you guys are interested I can post some testing results. I'm using it as my mixing station at home. PT11HD with an Apollo Quad. Runs like a champ.

question on the Apollo, are you using Thunderbolt?

So far everything is working flawlessly however I have not had a chance to try the thunderbolt ports on the board yet. It's a very powerful machine but only a quad core so I'll see what kind of power it has with the D-Verb benchmark. Can't wait to push it to its limits.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
As per our conversation earlier, Eyevanovich told me the fans are quiet enough to be eclipsed by mechanical hard drive noise. I think this is one of the most important things to note here, especially for a rack mounted build.
If you have the time, I'd be interested in seeing the readouts of CPU-Z and/or Core Temp to note the operating temperature of this thing during idle, Pro Tools operation, and IntelBurnTest or FurMark at full load after 5 minutes or more. With that case arrangement, CPU, and cooler... It would be expected that full load temps do not exceed 72º C. If they do during FurMark, I would be inclined to blame the 760. I don't know the efficiency of those ACX coolers offhand, but I imagine it's far from perfect.

i7 Builds - Specs and Results
The temps run hotter than I expected them to but I will need to do more benchmark tests to see what's going on. Idle temps usually sit in the 38-45ºC depending on the ambient temp. When under load from PT it runs in the 50s. When I ran the prime95 test I hit temps of 95ºC which kind of freaked me out. I may need to go back and re-apply my thermal paste on the CPU fan. It's my first build so I'm not sure I did it correctly.
