    Okay share your meme here Related threads: You know you benched too much when... Only xtreme overclockers will understand this ... Bad Advice Massman ... and that's why I never post a world record ...

  3. Let's open a thread for sharing pics WHILE you are benching with your friends (or alone if you don't have friends). Funny pictures are encouraged! :D

    Hey guys, In case you haven't been following, Dimastech has now filed for bankruptcy which is only affecting the Italian side of the company, apparently. However, a few of our members have had their hard earned cash taken from them with numerous promises where this, that and the other will be happening. Nothing ever surfaced from it and they are worse off for it. We are a community, and therefore, one member on here, who goes by the name of George, thought a fundraiser would be a good idea to show what the community is all about. Unfortunately, due to personal reasons, he is no longer able to do so. That's where I am stepping in to try and help out. We already hav…

    What are some of rarest, highest bin, or noteworthy for some other reason, kits you own or would like to? I personally want a 4x8gb trident X 2666c11 because it's probably the highest performance 32gb ddr3 kit ever made (for 24/7 use, run at XMP), since all the higher spec MFR kits were 2 dimm kits, and I have doubts about haswell or Ivy-E handling all slots populated at 2800+. Let me know if there was a better 4x8gb kit, or an 8x8gb 2666c11 kit made. I also want one of the Cellshock Diablo micron D9 kits rated 2000 8-7-6 because they looked cool, and that's about the highest spec for D9s as far as I know. What about you?

  9. Yeap ... it's been 25 years since the first GPU came to life. https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/first-gpu-gaming-ai/

  10. First: This is not a FS thread (I will make it when I'm ready, in the appropriate section) - this is just a meta discussion. It's been 10+ years since I posted results on HWBot, and I'm getting a bit tired of moving with all the old CPUs I used for grinding my gold cups and such. Certain things have some emotional value, which I will keep in case I want to have some OCing fun later, but some platforms/CPUs I know for sure I will never touch again. So, if you have like 100-200 CPUs for a particular socket and each individual one isn't really all that valueable, what really is the best way to actually sell something like that? Just put up one giant lot per socket and l…

    As the name implies, How to switch from your current team to another team. IIRC my current team had to send me an invite on HwBot.org to join their team. Is that correct or is there something else I need to try.

    So, this is something that I've been wondering, especially considering there's people here with 200+ CPU's in their hardware list, so plenty people that probably have experience in this market ? . Recently I got a pretty okay deal on an Asus Crosshair, FX-6200, some mediocre RAM and and a Noctua NH-D14, so now I have a great AM3 board and I'm looking for more CPU's to put into it. Though, when I check the (semi) local pricing for 2nd hand AM3 CPU's I get: * FX-6300: €20 * Phenom II X4 810: €30 * FX-8210: €25 It's already weird that the price goes down if the CPU gets faster, but is it me or are these pricing kinda high for these 12 year old…

  13. Happy new year !!!! Heloo guy's , i need bios file for DFI LP LT P35 T2R - this board >>> https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813136039 I what to flash because i have a problem with my old school computer (Q6600+DFI LP LT P35 T2R+4x1GB Geil Ultra+eVGA 8800 Ultra) If i have bios battery in soket, the MB don't boot, show only C1/C26 on debug led. When i removet, pc boot normaly (like a reset cmos). Shut down the pc>>> push power button ... same problem, don't boot and C1/C26 on debug led. If i remove the power cord (to drain all power from MB) when i shut down the pc, the pc boot ... like a reset cmos ( without battery) …

  14. Hi. I got a EVGA Sr-x board Im about to sell and wonder what would fair price be for it (for both buyer and seller). I've done some googling and I cannot find a single one for sale anywhere as of now. Also really hard to find information in general about what they are worth today. Board is in excellent shape (no dings or scratches) and is fully functional (in use as of now). No original box, comes with I/O shield and a few peripherals though. Anyone has any idea what a fair price would be? Many Thanks Halibut King.

    Merry Christmas to any and all remaining here. It's been awhile...I'll post some pictures of my updated game rig after the holidays. ?

  16. Hello, I don't know if this is the correct place to post this but I have a lot of old hardware that I would be interested in overclocking and submitting to HWBOT, but I feel like installing windows 10 would be kinda dumb since the hardware barely runs that so installing windows xp or 7 would be the right way. How do you install the operating systems, do you have an original installation disc or somthing else? I have windows xp home sp2 disc already. Thank you!

  19. If anyone here wants to take a break from benching for a few days and repurpose that hardware for some volunteer scientific research, come crunch with us. So far we have 13 sponsored prizes from Corsair, Cooler Master, and be quiet. Top 3 winners get first pick of prizes, and the rest are random draw for anyone that completes 20 work units over the four days (fairly easy). Register here: https://extremehw.net/topic/2662-extremehw-first-annual-96-hour-folding-challenge-march-17th-20th-0000-utc Feel free to give a shoutout to your HWBOT team name. Thanks, damric

    Hi members, hope you all are well I have been working on this forever. I do not think there is a category for this ? This does not compare to people on HWBOT but its special to me and I would like to share it as some members of HWBOT inspired me! This is not an advertisement to get subs, I will probably waste your time if you sub XD But a like and a view and opinion will be awesome Youtube video of my Record :)
