Well, I got my 1055T yesterday and with the latest Gigabyte BIOS it was
recognized just fine and Vista gives me a 5.9 on performance. CoolNQuiet
is enabled and AMD Turbo Core may or may not work as I've not placed
that big a load on it yet. I'm crunching down a 7.5 gig DVD movie to 700
MB's and it's ETA is 27 minutes. All 6 cores are being used and
processor usage is around 50 %. Default vcore is 1.2750 at 2.8 GHz and I
haven't tried overclocking because frankly I'm not interested. It's fast
enough as it is but most people are reporting 4.2 GHz stable on air
cooling with 1.5 or 1.55 volts. Real nice so far and I couldn't be more
pleased.

It outpaces the i975 at the office (but its close, really close).
But as a drop in replacement, easiest option ever.

Yeah, can't wait to see the difference on Handbrake myself.

Our local microcenter had the 1090t for $199. Basically too good of a deal. It
won't challenge intels high end anywhere, but its performance out of handbrake
any on the newer x64 x264 encoder rocks. I mean, really rocks. I guess I'm
not so much a gamer where that's a big sell factor for me.

Just curious why you're not considering the 1099T? I too as going to build
a 930 setup, but now with the 1099T, I'm seriously considering it.

Looks like a great system! Personally I'm firmly an Asus ROG guy but doubt
you can go wrong with Gigabyte.
Consider a BluRay-R/DVD-RW vs. plain DVD-RW. What about sound card? Don't
get burnt by ADI, etc... AC97 crap like I did!

OK, well I see it's time I update the post.
So far I already have here:
Intel Core i7-930
CORSAIR CMPSU-850HX 850W
COOLER MASTER HAF 922
Windows 7 Ultimate O/S
Here is what I plan on ordering next:
* GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R
* G.SKILL PI Series 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)
* XFX HD-587A-ZND9 Radeon HD 5870 1GB
* Intel X25-M Mainstream SSDSA2MH080G2R5 2.5" 80GB SATA II MLC
Internal Solid State Drive - For second HD I'll either go with a
Western Digital VelociRaptor WD6000HLHX 600GB or regular SATA perhaps
the SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200.
I'll pick up a cheap DVD drive for it as well.
I think I feel pretty good about this setup, but if anyone has
anything they would like to add, recommend, suggest that may make me
change my mind on something please let me know.
Thanks All...
