Haswell is still a beast.

I gained roughly 5000 points by "upgrading" to Windows 10 IoT LTSC. I love it, finally feels like it should.

I bet I can gain more by disabling Hyperthreading.

I thought it might be fun to post a couple of scores from my latest overkill Windows XP retro rocket.

Specs:
Windows XP SP3 (updated ACPI driver for modern platforms)
Gigabyte Z370 HD3P
i7-9700k (4.6 GHz all-core)
EVGA GTX 980 Ti SC

3DMark01 Score: 118,015

For a bit more fun, I turned off a couple of cores and increased the core frequency to 5.0GHz for a few more points in Windows XP.

i7-9700k (4 cores enabled, 5.0 GHz all-core), 3DMark01 Score: 135,721

This must be the fastest stock FX5200. It has 3,6ns BGA DDR RAM clocked at 276Mhz (552 DDR) with 128Bit Memory Bus witdh. It uses the same PCB as the Palit FX5200Ultra.

it's definitely rare to find them with good memory speed like that! and there is probably some OC potential in it still, very nice,
I call it a win when I find any 5200 with 128bit memory these days, even the more common 5ns memory ones,

Wow that is good! I recently benchmarked an FX 5600 and it only got 8923 Points! Video below if interested
