Don't know why you're quoting me? I am certainly no expert and do not have any say in this thread. I just posted my 980X results like anybody else. The fact that my gflops were low was not through any "detuning" as I had no idea how to. My results were what they were. More Knowledgeable ppl were happy that I had got the best figures I could.

My SB results are a lot higher (different architecture, better MCH possibly) but I did not influence my results with any special knowledge (even of Photoshop). I just assembled my box with watercooling and tried various bios and ram alterations and configurations (including a good PSU) to get as high a score as I could.

All this was, and is, for fun and only for fun.

If you have any grievances perhaps you should direct them to "Zalbard".

Apologies to you Zalbard if I'm "name dropping".
