Having huge issues with 3dmark 2003 atm (As Mr K404 knows.. lol) For some reason the score SUCKS. Mananged to "fix" GT1 with a few windows tweaks, but the rest of the score is poor. Had hoped to be in the 4x k range, based on other peoples clocks and K's 8800GTS results it looks like it should...

Anyone else getting errors when they try to submit results to the ORB? Trying to upload from saved results which hasn't been a problem before, now its just giving connection errors! Cheers

In terms of PCI-E lanes available... This P5N-E SLI uses 8*8 config over the 16*16 found on the 680i boards. There's obviously going to be a performance hit but how large? I've found figures for 8800GTS's and performance hit isn't huge at lower (benching) res's but would this hold true for the...

Been ragging an E6300 recently, brought it for a 24/7 rig but after clocking in the AB9 it screamed to be pushed further. In the P5B its turned into a monster... 8 hours Orthos stable @ 3.74ghz (watercooled, 1.42v loaded) and benchable to just under 3.95ghz on iced water! Coupled with Crucial...

Finally sold the last of my AMD kit (feel awful knowing LDBHE 0601 X2 is gonna run stock for the rest of its life :'() and in the process of migrating 24/7 rig over to Core 2 (E6300, AB9, Crucial, etc...) The prices of DDR2 at the mo are frankly shocking, 240 quid for 2gb GSkill HZ? Erm no...

Right guys, who's up for a little xmas fun benching wise? Idea's 2 fold - firstly to pull back our HWbot rank, and secondly to have some fun with some cheap cards. Been speaking to Mr Kenny, and scanning over the HWbot results and it seems 6600GT's might be a good place to look. Cards are...

Clicketh! These look great, grat's to Mr Dizzy currently sat in the number 2 spot behind Kingpin. Also great news on the team front too, sat in the number 2 spot at the moment.

Grats to kenny on the quinfecta for single 7800GTX 512. Awsome work mate, know how hard you've worked on this and it's well deserved :D:D

As the title suggests, myself and Persivore are finally able to get together for our first "proper" benching session. Persivore (for those that don't know) is a bit of an electronics whizz, and Xtremesystems resident vmod mod/guru. He's built himself a bit of a reputation as a vmod whizzkid and...

To Merom or not to Merom *updated with results* Canne decide on this one at the mo.. Got a great deal on a T7400 Merom.. in fact a REALLY good deal. Now, the Merom's are FSB bugged like the Yonahs. Should still be good for ~ 230 though which is a decent speed. Can't really afford to spend...

DICE is sorted, need to get a "decent" digi thermometer sorted now... Can't afford a Fluke no matter how much I want one, so need something a little cheaper. Gray reccomends DIGITAL THERMOMETER K102 (voltcraft) from http://www1.uk.conrad.com only issue is that it doesnt come with a...

Guys, need some DICE for an upcoming bench sesh - any ideas as to UK supplies who will deliver to the West Yorkshire/Leeds area? Looking for ~ 20kg of pellets with free or cheap delivery if possible. (anyone who wants to is more than welcome to bob along btw, will be towards the end of the...

Excuse the fuzzyness... was stood on bed at the time, as its a soft one it tends to bounce - even the act of pressing the shutter button sent it into a Jelly like wobble-fest... 8)8)
