SBT.. on the lux screen.. it says that there are 8 threads.. i figure since the 8150 is 1 thread per core that all 8 are going.. i had a simple model, hair, swimsuit, ibl scene going and was getting a bit under 300k s/s.  Then my whole system froze up.  Not sure why but I had nothing saved so have to start at the beginning.

 

On the plus side... photoshop fires in about 3 seconds... literally.. i couldn't catch the sweep hand on my watch b4 it was past the splash screen.
