The weater here in Denmark is great for benching now

-15c outside where i live.

Benching 2600K subzero with aircooling

Nice one,my GF wont let me open the door or window,we live in a flat

My 1866mhz vengeace rams is now running 2133mhz,but not so flattering 11-12-11-30-2T.There is an increase in cpu-score by some 500p though.

 

[marsey99]

i cant get these redline 2133 to run stock in the z68z d3 :\

chip is a x52, idk where the blk tops out yet but i imagine the boards not going to like it.

 

[kilobravo]

Not sure what happened here,but i just dropped from 19>23 place in the league.Is HWbot updating scores???

Its got to big error!

Mines dropped to masive.

go look at someone who has gained big,

1: they havent benched for a long time,

2: Go and add their Global + Hardware points they dont equal their screen total

Wil be sorted, with luck and judgement by tonight

I've gone up two paces to 16th in the uk and Mr Moose has appeared in front of me

I haven't submitted since Dcember

Edit:

I'm sure I lost a lot of points on the last revision, it might be those coming back

 

[kilobravo]

It looks like hwbot is taking every single category/sub a recalculate rankings and points.Hope we all get our points back

 

[kilobravo]

Found me a club3d hd4890 950mhz at stock,going to collect it this evening.Hope i can push it a bit further.

 

[kilobravo]

Hmm,would like to make a pcmark05 score with 3930k,but the mobo has its limits.No raid-0,no score worth submitting.

Gigabyte FAQ :

Why can't I enable some RAID function?

Due to the limitation of PC structure, the capacity of shadow memory is fixed. If the shadow memory is not enough, some of the RAID controllers will be inactive.

Itching to bench something!! Been like 2 months and nothing from me lol. Got my new Acards, just need some cheapo DDR2 then I can get back on some more PCM05, then jump on Ivy with Kepler soon

 

[marsey99]

i now have 4 good 775 cpu (e43/e84/e6850/q9550 and a shit e64) and a pretty strong mobo but i think i am going to need some faster ram to really get the most from them.

meh will see later this week when i get them bolted under this phase

WWWEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kilobravo]

Think we can look forward at some nice pcmark05 scores

 

[kilobravo]

Have a 2nd hd4890 on its way to me.A sapphire hd4890 vapor-x.Now i only the money for a good 2500k/2600k for some older 3dmarks benching.

 

[marsey99]

mount never turned up :/

i have got my benchtop made now and it only needs a quick scrape of filler and a sand before painting but idk what colour to go :/

i got a couple of case badges on the way so i might look to them for ideas on that when they turn up too

 

[kilobravo]

The sapphire hd4890 vapor-x couldnt even match the club3d 4890 stock clocks at 950mhz

in x-fire.

 

[ObscureParadox]

Hey guys, i know your all pretty much experts with computer hardware, so i have to ask you guys one thing.

I've been given a 775 Rampage board for next to nothing, but it has a couple of pins missing, what is the best way to replace the pins so i can try to get it up and running again?? Would love to finally start benching 775

 

[marsey99]

idk about replacing them dude but its not that hard to bend them back with some tweasers.

my new hoodie is just sexy

 

[ObscureParadox]

Nah well to ebay it goes then, gunna try and get a decent board on there, maybe a striker II or Rampage extreme

 

[marsey99]

not a striker dude, they are shit tbh, rex is a good choice as are some of the ddr3 p45 gigaboards as these can really push the fsb.

 

[MSIRawZ]

Back benching this month!
