    Hi,

    I've recently upgraded my 570RU-U with new CPU from T9300 to X9000. I've bought this CPU, because got it really cheap only 310 bucks. It's retail version not an ES sample. I've got a huge 3D Mark 06 score increse comparing to my old T9300, which I was expecting due to higer CPU score but SM 2.0 and SM 3.0 also incresed SM 2.0 by 240 points and SM 3.0 by only 74 points so my new high score is 11287 :) with 178.15 and GPU OC 600 1500 950. Highest score with T9300 was 10368 ;) with same driver and GPU OC. Performence in Crysis has also incresed but gains a higher in lower resolutions, only 1.5 fps in 1440x900 all high in which I'm playing Crysis ( built in GPU benchmark in giving 33.3 fps in that resolutions. In 1900x1200 i'm getting 21.79 fps right now comparing to 21.54 fps with T9300, so not much almost nothing ;) .
    Generally my RU is faster, I've noticed that programs and games are loading quicker. My max GPU temp was 60 deg C while running WPrime which i think is not bad.

    there are links to my 3D Mark06 scores if somebody is intrested:

    X9000 3.2GHz GPU OC 600 1500 950

    X9000 3.2GHz no GPU OC score 9853

    T9300 2.5GHz GPU OC 600 1500 950
