Some New Blood On The Testbed :)

...and there's nothing wrong with that. I'm not trying to invalidate anything that you're doing, nor am I trying to create more work for you. I brought the oddity up because I thought that it would be good for you and others performing testing to, if nothing else, just keep in mind while testing so that you might be more likely to spot any odd data and/or limit the impact by not collecting data from TAT when there are large differences in ambient temperature.

I still need to look into this more to gain some idea of what's going on.

I have seen my fair share of oddities, just look at some of my mounts They get lumped in with the rest unless it is something grossly out of whack.

Or gain?

If nikhsub1 is willing I would send him the older model Aquastream pump that was being sold a few months ago that can OC up to about 72 Hz. I think new ones will OC up to about 94 Hz.

I appreciate the offer but in order for this to have any usefulness, every other block would then need to be retested with this pump... not my idea of fun

nik is doing all his testing with exactly the same hardware every time to insure consistency so results can be compared.

Yes this is the idea, I won't even update my bios, ever.

Yeah, that's what I would do. As long as everything was tested exactly the same, the comparison will still be valid and very worthwhile. The couple of odd tests I had found were usually pointed out after making several runs.

Strength in numbers..

Yep, the more mounts you get the more you can see a trend.

Oh and don't worry, immortal is on my ignore list now as obviously he just doesn't like me for some reason or another.
