As I said, and please ready it CAREFULLY, "sorting chips in a Fab that produce millions of Chips is not as easy as doing it in a fab producing thousands ... adding a stage in the fab to do so would be too costly".Originally Posted by bustamove44
Im not sure you took in what Gomeler was saying, its not just about having super chips. retail chips that are pretested to find SIMILAR ability, they could be retail no?
As Kenny said above, not everyone is in the financial position to 'find' a chip that is going to compete,
i.e mrx buys 10 cpus to find a good one, mr. b. can only buy one [at a push] so has to rely on luck rather than judgement.
some will some wont thats why your statement about chip selection being part of being a good overclocker fails, cant you see that?
It's begining to turn into a mantra, this comp is about finding the best overclockers not the best off financially or those with the best contacts.
cpus pre selected by a neutral person would be best imo. no one can then say well my cpu was not up to it or I was unlucky.
This is not something that is possible to do without having serious inpact on the latency of a Fab. I can't give you details, but this is not going to happen.
in the mean time, there is a step to make the Extreme Edition, this step is the best in the industry, I can't believe that you guys are always asking for more.
Levelling the play ground for a competition is fairly easy , that is what Gigabyte did with 975 production chip at GooC 2009. So, your point does not stand. You have exactly what you need in the store as Gigabyte did.
So, you have your way to make your play ground egal. Stop telling me I am not reading.
