He wrote me PM yesterday saying he is not interested in hwbot etc. Enough? Stop making assumptions without facts :)

Dino. Take your jacket and leave the place :rolleyes:
You just come here and don't have a clue what others are talking about. I am tired to reply to these post which are not leading anywhere.
I have met mike and we do not have any attitude problems. Do not try to find fights, cause here we don't have any.
Take it easy man :up:
yeah you are right
not worth wasting time on petty quarrels
Mike has delete certain scores a the bot as well, he told me it was Foxconn issues.
Och well, it's his decision/problem/joke/interest/attitude, no one should be judging about it. As far as I'm concerned: a world record is a published score. So, he can have a gazilion scores in his profile, if they're not published, it's not an official score and cannot be considered a world record.
there is a 38.8k 2006 result around aswel, the user wants to avoid conflict so it's kept private :?
backups are fun in the heat of battle, i.e. what sf and vince had, backing up every day till one user is defeated.
really glad to have seen amd rip 50k 05 tho :)
You are" disappointed to see him playing like this" and you think you "deserve to see" his scores? :confused:
His scores are his business and he can do with them whatever he wants. Besides, the ridiculousness of the situation is that he pulled his 06 just to avoid conflict. If you've met him then you know, there is no one more humble than he is. He doesn't care at all about being #1 or showing off or anything. He saw everyone getting their panties in a bunch from his poorly named title so just removed the score to put an end to it. And you're jumping on him for that??
This thread is fun! Am I the only one who thinks all the frustration being shown has to do with the delicacies/expenses of lhe benching? I mean, it must be quite frustrating to think you have the world record only to find out you didn't at all to begin with. Published score or no published score, a record is a record. I know this is open to debate. May be people need to re-evaluate their benching strategies from henceforth - that is do not look to only exceed the wr, just go nuts, and push your hardware till it screams and drops dead.
So, I just have to ask Futuremark who the official owner of the 3DMark06 world record is? :)
My friends, can we take a deep breath and stop baiting one another?
Just reading thru this and seems to me that what started out as a small thing has blown up needlessly.
Let's take this back to where it was and just plain enjoy the scores.
They speak for themselves whether on HWBot or not.
You all know I'm not taking sides here as I respect all of you for your talents.
Let your skills and the numbers do the speaking for you.
They do it so much better.
Thanks guys.
Its' me i admitt :D
I just deleted a post as it only rehashes what was said before. Let's move on please and save my poor typing fingers.

And I have only one question to AMD!
Why gives you such prebinned CPU's to such a ss holes wich sells this CPUs on ebay!
And other serious Overclockers waits a live long to get a CPU from
AMD and will never sell this because they are happy about having it!
The seller of that item is AMD itself. See the location of the chip: Austin, Texas.
I guess AMD like to give opportunity to buy one of those CPU's with pure money.
So, the holes you were mentioning are not the ones you ment :D
I can be wrong on this one of course.
Doesn't look like AMD to me :shakes:
Let's hope it is :shrug:
all proceeds go to charity, or so says the ebay page so either way, if it is AMD or if its a private entity, it really doesn't matter as everything raised goes to help old folks.
Maybe it's just a pretty excuse to cause AMD not to piss of on people selling the TWKR chip which is not for sale.
How came charity program lays her hands on a Extreme edition AMD CPU ?!?!
And Seller has 0 feedback.
All in all, it smells like scam to me !
+1 :up:
(but Intel ES are selled all over ebay plattforms...)
But Intel ES and AMD TWKR are different things, because ES are for everyone (wich has a Mag or Website) and TWKR are only for Extreme Overclockers!
AND AMD CHOOSE THE GUYS WICH WILL HAVE ONE
LOL
Petri, can you ask your amd reps about this sale ?
the pictures appear to have been taken from one popular review source. combined with a seller with 0 feedback who doesn't answer questions - looks like a scam to me.
Yes.. It seems to be a scam. I will ask.
I know. I didn't mean that. Intel has stated as I believe that all ES CPU's are Intel's property and Intel is just loaning them. There was thread about this recently. Is this the same with AMD or is AMD giving cpu's to users as a gift and they can do what ever whey want with it?
I rather think to do for the purpose, not for sale...If you "burn" this chip, he is failed for the victory : )
Selling not for sale product is really low kick...
It is not a question of ES CPU Selling or not!
It is the Question that AMD Says the 100 (99) TWKR CPUs are ONLY for Extreme Overclockers wich are selected from AMD...
And it is not understandable why one wich has been selected from AMD will sell this CPU!
Other Overclockers Waits for a live to get a free sample for there work...
Note that not all TWKR cpu's go to extreme overclockers as in extreme benchmarkers. They also go to reviewing websites.
Well it's not mine, Buckeye has mine in california right now.
Why would a scammer give all proceeds to charity? :S
http://donations.ebay.com/charity/ch...jsp?NP_ID=3480
Aslan, a user at OCF did a little leg work on this, he came up with this info:
"Looks Legit. They are a real charity, and there is strong evidence that AMD is a sponsor of theirs.
http://www.familyeldercare.org/ AMD Logo prominently displayed here.
http://www.amd.com/us/press-releases...se_102926.aspx Mentioned that they donated to Family Eldercare here.
http://www.kxan.com/dpp/mobile/Utili...ring_heat_wave More evidence."
just FYI
nice charity
by raising about a thousand dollars they'll ruin the overclocking community if the cpu will be sold to some overclocker
how is it ruining lol.
think of the orphans getting clothes
AMD back:clap:
The current bid is $7500 now on the chip. :eek:
7600$ :shocked:
What the heck ? you can buy 7 Intel core i7 975 and and EVGA Classified at that price, what is up with those people ?
Take a look at the bid history, 61 bids by 27 bidders and people are fighting there, It went from 1000$ to 4000$ instantly and then to 5000$ and on it goes :shakes:
http://occlub.ru/index.php/2009-07-1...sf3devent.html - Russian version =)
More than 100 pics =)
Thanks for the link Neoforce. That picture of Dedal humping the LHe tank is precious :rofl:
$8K+ for TWKR? lol :D
lol, 9K$, by this rate it will end up as a 50K$ chip in a few days.
This must be a joke.
And the funniest thing is that the currently highest bidder has 0 feedback.
0 feedback buyer buys from a 0 feedback seller an OC limited Edition AMD CPU which is NOT FOR SALE at 9K$ (and counting), lol, its all wrong here !!!
10K... This better be selected out of a pool of 50 TWRKs...
$10,000+ already. When will this madness stop!
12K$
or this is AMD himself buying this CPU or people have gone mad :D
This is to be expected from an auction which is essentially a donation drive...chances are the winner will have no idea what it is and won't care. They're making a donation and getting a chip as a bonus.
They're making a donation and getting some weird square thing as a bonus
there, fixed it for ya :D
they might even think its some weird medal/award for donating and frame it and put it on the wall.. maybe theyll even complain why its not gold plated and not silver, after all they won the acution didnt they? :lol:
There are three of TWKR's already

Nazar I don`t believe in it - I think it is just fake.
