My system has been running stable for about a week and performs above my expectations. It's been able to handle everything I can throw at it without the CPU going over 50 Celsius.
With that said, I'm pretty surprised by my low geekbench score. Best I've managed is about 5800. This is in the range of a 2010 dual core Macbook. My CPU is running at 3.9Ghz (quad), 16 Gigs of RAM...seems like it should be much higher than that.
I've followed all of these instructions, with zero improvement - http://lnx2mac.blogspot.com/2010/07/optimal-bios-configuration.html
I suppose it's not too important, as long as it performs to my expectations in real life, but it makes me wonder if I'm not getting everything I could out of this machine.
Any advice would be appreciated
