Interesting. Wonder what it'll be? Hope it isn't a "creative" contest, I hate attempting to design banners.

Exciting. Just please don't be one of those "score the highest in XXXX benchmark" contests where the only people that win are those guys that already get free ES of upcoming tech.

Prizes... hmmm... Cryo-z would be sweet.

I missed this....are you saying that they don't run faster than rated or that they don't run rated speeds? There is no "working like it should" when it comes to overclocking, nothing is ever guaranteed.

I never like those ideas cause it always feels like the person who thought of it has a save of the run just in case of one of those types of benchmark competitions happen to be approved.
