Sam glad to see you will be benching again, I ended up having to RMA the 3870K, but once it gets back I will test it on an Asus A75 FM1 Pro board, maybe htpc duty lol.

I just score some older Hynix CFR kits, 2133 c9 RipZ and half of a 2400 c9 RipZ kit (I got yours Roy:D) so some CFR binning is in order.

I don't even know why it died lol.
Sorry about that. It was on the stock cooler ><

Massman even made a newspost about hitting 400k views! Check it out! :up:

Keep the OC spirit strong, XS, and looking forward to seeing more action from the team!

Thanks, I'm very happy! :)
On Saturday I'll be going to the Asus ROG Camp in Berlin, so far it has been a great week and I think Saturday will be no different! :yepp:

Keep me updated on the CFR binning! :up:

I'm back from ROG Camp, it was a perfect combination of delicious food, nice people and great hardware - to make a long story short it was great fun! :)

Asus brought a few M5Es and HD 7970s and five 3770ks. stummerwinter pretested them and chose two for LN2 testing, the other three were pretty crappy ( ~1.45V @ 5GHz 32M ). Originally some setups should have been build using all the components so everyone could try the hardware on air, but SoF and stummerwinter prepared their systems for LN2 and somehow everyone gathered around them. :D
SoF ran GTX 580 triple SLI and stummerwinter tested both CPUs from Asus under LN2, later on he switched to his personal CPU but all three were facing a CB at -120?C, so after switching CPUs, memory and PSU he had to change the board. I was pouring LN2 for SoF on his setup, and apart from some other scores he managed to set a new triple card Unigine Heaven DX9 WR. Well done Chris! :up:

After about two hours of benching SoF had to stop benching and thaw up, so I grabbed a M5E, the three CPUs that were left ( two 3770k and one 3570k ES ) and some memory that Asus brought and tested the chips for their IMC capabilities. We knew we were off to a great start after the first 3770k gave us "23" at 1200MHz. :rofl:
After switching CPUs to the second 3770k I was able to boot 1200MHz but 1300MHz ended in "55". I asked for some of SoF's memory and chose a GeIL 2400 CL11 kit which had Hynix CFR for sure. Switching the memory made booting at 1400MHz possible and also running 32M at that frequency. Trying to boot 1466MHz ended in "23" again, but I got 1449.1MHz through BCLK tuning.
The 3570k was a bit better, booting at 1400MHz was fine and I got 1452MHz through BCLK tuning. After booting at 1466MHz gave me "55" I switched memory again but even with some G.Skill 2600 CL10 with Samsung ICs I wasn't able to boot at 1466MHz. On the 1400MHz divider I got 1450MHz. Neither of the kits was able to boot at CL12. :shrug:

These are all the validations I made:

Sounds awesome Dan, wish Asus would do more events in the US though, I feel the last one was ages ago (Sunnyvale).

Yeah, it was great to meet other overclockers and bench a bit, there should also be a lot more photos coming in the next few days. :up:

This event was hosted for the first time, part one was held in November, part two last weekend. I hope it will be done again in the future. :)

Hey George,

You made the news at HWBot! :)

Seems like I managed to post in the entire wrong section somewhere further up in the forums, so I will C&P the whole thing into this way more suited thread as it seems:

Hello fellow combatants! :D

I know I am probably the most inactive member over at Hwbot, not having uploaded a single score for like 3 years or even more, but my plans are to do some benching every now and then again. Due to several reasons, I just left the team I originally founded and at which I did my part on reaching global #1 a good while ago (team PC Games Hardware that was). Now I joined the team where everything started for me back in the days, XtremeSystems.

Link to my Hwbot profile: http://hwbot.org/user/fr3ak_2/

Due to my lack of infinite money, I am not aiming for one of the top spots, but give me some more time and I will be back in the game of silly numbers and mass destruction of lifetime again :)

On to conquering the universe and beyond! :toast:

for now, im not benching. too much work when Im at home, and right now... im in the Czech Republic on vacation. I will post up my findings for Heaven + AMD/ATi when I get back. Ive found some very interesting "tweaks"

When will the next Team Cup be? I'm looking at moving some hardware since I'm low on cash but maybe I'd hold out until the competition.

Sweet!
Might have to look at grabbing an HD 5870 for SC2 Deneb. Anyone have a spare sitting around? I'd be happy to pay shipping plus a few.

I've got a 7 GHz 955 so should do well.

There might be some more changes to the stages as the hardware limitations are still discussed at the HWBot forum. I'll make a thread when the limitations are fixed and the competition is listed at the front page.

The stages have been updated again:

SC1 #1: Tualatin -> Coppermine (Tualatin was not available in 2000)
SC1 #7: Kentsfield B2 -> Kentsfield B3, except Q6600 (No Kentsfield B2, Q6600 not available in 2006)

SC2 #4: Toledo -> Windsor, no 6000/6400+ (Windsor was competitor of Conroe and AMD's most high-end platform at that time)
SC2 #4: Allow GF8 series, only 8800GTX/GTS640 (both cards were available at the end of 2006)
SC3 #4: Kentsfield B2 -> Kentsfield B3, except Q6600 (No Kentsfield B2, Q6600 not available in 2006)
