    Quick and dirty 66K vantage......

    I needed to verify this expander worked before i sent it somewhere ( or at least thats my story and i'm sticking to it )

    Anyway no ln2 on cards ( can't afford it ) No helpers ( can't afford them ) couldn't really afford to keep benching either, ran one safe run passed jacked cards up a tad ran another shut it down........literally that quick and that little ln2.

    Anyway enjoy, this expander passed my top 10 global certification.

    Hopefully more to come at a later date.

    Far easier for you guys to come to me, lugging my equipment to events is bad enough not to mention my ln2 prices are half what you guys pay in NY.

    Tbh right now I am so broke I would have to put a burger on the dollar menu on layaway.......

    dude clean that keyboard lol, looks like its been sitting in storage for the past 5 years

    Another thing I find funny is AMD/Intel would snipe any of our Moms on a grocery run if it meant good quarterly results, and you are forever whining about what feser did?

    The use of the keyboard was a ploy to get hipro to return, it's like a cosmic force, seems it has worked.

    No the expander was a marketing sample sent out, I have another.

    For whatever reason with 2 PSU I could not break 900 core, adding a third and 900+ was easy I just didn't have time or ln2 to push further.

    Soon, I have 2 more cards to test individually.

    So far 1 = 1192 core vantage, bad CB at -130 added a pll mod to that card, second card 1155 core seems to not have a CB or at least doesn't artifact over -130, added a pll mod to that to.
    (This is vantage speeds )

    I imagine when I shift to slims 1000-1100 will be possible 4 way, Will use a fat on the last card and most likely stick it on the worst card.

    Unfortunately I think my score will be limited by the cpu however, haven't had the luxury to bin multiple gulfies but eh we will make the best of what we have.

    Expander?
    As in the dunkin donut cup used to expand the ln2 thing?
    Lol, dunkin donut expander.
    Dunkin donuts inside...

    If you get some money sometime or another you could try pvc tubes from the hardware store, there's all sorts of fittings and etc.
    Not sure if pvc tubing will hold up to those cold temps but... there are thick ones too.

    Anyways nice keyboard .
    I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with a dirty keyboard.
    Well, mine gets tobacco stuck in it from time to time since I roll my own and it gets everywhere.
