Just wondering ever since Dj Took #1 This place has been pretty dead?
Are all you guys benching like mad?
DJ at number one? Not from where I'm sitting.
LN2 is still winning on the ORB, AND from what I see, it seems majormav holds the top spot (he's the first one I see that ran their 3dmark with the full battery of tests, not just the ones that count towards the score)
As nice as competitive benchmarking is, there does have to be some form of stability also. I don't doubt people like OPP, MrIcee, Macci (with his crazy-ass 1.6A) have things in the works to improve their scores. Only a matter of time.

Dunno about everyone else, but things are quiet on my end because I dont have anything left to bench with. Got a broken mainboard which is prolly going to be replaced with a pos blue boxed IT7, a CPU which clocks horribly, a mediocre radeon ... I do have some Corsair 3500 now though but havent even been able to test it properly :\
I dont think its particulary quiet here or on the ORB, obviously the first rush with the new radeons has passed but ppl are still improving and benching all over the place
Uh oh....you killed the red IT7 you had been searching for quite a while? Not good :(
Luck plays a huge part in this game...and it seems right now, that DJ is having his fair share of it.
Oh well....I'm guessing that the japs will come out with some sick 4.3ghz P4 / 520/390 radeon LN2 score that should stand for a while.
Here's to watching the 1st page of the ORB. :toast:

Until they change it you cant upload scores at the orb at greater than 4 GHz ... I imagine it should be changed soon though.
You can expect the LN2 finn's and possably that son guy from japan to go benching again and well pass 21K... I think mainly Kamu should have no problem passing Holicho's score.
Although this may seem like some kind of envy, I have to say that with DJ's clocks ... there are more marks in that than he's getting out of it currently.
About the luck thing, DJ is having his share plus mine cos i'm all out lately lol ;)
Seems active to me :)
majormav breaking 20k, opp trying to max out his amd rig, colin pulling up right behind macci in 4200 cat, etc etc etc...plenty of stuff happening in just the past few days!
How's that go? Onwards and upwards! :D
