Looks like a hairy, hippy pie too me

I can't see any w/c kit giving you those temperatures unless is was chilled. Google up Vapochill LS, phase change, Boreas....that will get you even better temps and run 24/7.

If it can handle just shy of a 2ghz overclock on my 920 (2.66ghz to 4.57ghz) then it'll handle the AMD...if you can find one that will hit that overclock in the first place I do recommend getting some 80+CFM 120mm fans for the rad though, which brings me to another point. If your ambient room temperature is more than 25C, no rad will help you hit those clocks. You will need chilled water, DI or LN2.

Swiftech H20-220 Apex Ultima is a great kit. I started out with it and just ended up tweaking it out. I use the Bitspower POM edition 5 1/4" bay res due to a space issue, and I also use 2 120mm 2000rpm Ultra Kaze fans on the rad. The thing about the Swiftech rads is that they are slim and it is not as efficient as you may need for some hardcore overclocking. Just my thoughts.

Man you need to dip into Lateralus and 10,000 days....both incredible albums and insane live shows. in 06/07 I saw them 7 times lol. Opiate's "Part of Me" is about as intense as it gets though. Great LP.

Man I just did my taxes this weekend and I'm still feeling a bit sore in and around the bum area lol. Danger Den are great but I haven't seen much new stuff from them lately. Fittings wise, I'm hooked on Bitspower....beautiful craftsmanship. Cubes in the res are sweet but submersing the res in a cooler full of salt, ice and water is awesome Yep massive TOOL fan. Doesn't get much better for hard rock these days. I love all of the albums, but Aenima and Undertow take it for me The tax thing was a micro rant lol; like I said above I'm fresh off of getting raped so I'm still sensitive lol. jmke is not joking about the ice cubes; very effective and cheap but you have to prep for condensation if you're working with a low dew point. My beer cooler suggestion is about as good as water gets on the cheap

I live in Canada man, you're taxes are nothing I paid 42% of my earnings in 08, plus 13% on pretty much everything I buy / mini tax rape rant lol. Feser make great rads, either a 2x120 or a 3x120 would do for cpu+chipset, the 3x would leave you room to expand. Expanding is good Swiftech GTZ cpu block is nice, I use it on my i7at up to 4.57ghz 1.58v so it could definitely handle a 940. All depends on your ambient temperature. Pumps, I use the Swiftech MCP655; super reliable and plenty of head. Chipset block, just the Swiftech MCW30 would work great. Cheap and effective. And no, I'm not a swiftech fanboy lol, they are proven and priced right!

you'd charge someone for it?

I was just kidding jmke lol. If the person doesn't want this bench to become a staple in the community that actually rewards enthusiasm for overclocking and performance, then it's his/her loss.

you mean we need someone to reverse engineer it, break it down and repackage it as their own

very nice 8600 run man! Gotta get those chaps with the i7's up a few notches, you're making them look silly with half the cores I just ran it last night for the first time and pulled off 27.9k at 4.3ghz so it looks like it's scaling with HT properly.

with a test that hits so many facets of the cpu, I can understand how the runs could be different from run to run. As long as we're not seeing something like a 10% difference, then we can write that off as system variables no? To help us understand it a bit better, maybe we should take a collection of runs with various platforms and find the average score variable to see if its consistent enough for hwbot to support it. I can talk to my team and get them on board if this will help, because I really do feel that this bench is worthy to compete with. We've started competing inter-team with it, and its going well with no fuss. Besides, it uses Fibonacci sequence...which is a huge part of Tool's Lateralus album

You serious mate? Thanks allot. I'll take some this weekend and pop you a line. regards, Rev

no problems with my crew and I with it so far. Are you sure it's the program?

haha, you're fast jmke. It's getting cluttered bro and with all of those PCMark benches that do not get us points, it could be time to do a cleanup? Ditch sandra 2004 and replace it with Nuke Just some friendly suggestions to get this one in there and clean up the clutter. NBOC really appreciate what you guys do here and this is all stuff we've conversed about recently. Have a great weekend!

I like this bench. This should honestly replace pifast.

Glad to see some progress. The content on that site is priceless. Finding a volt mod for a 256mb 3850 has been a tough go without it

Not harsh at all. When a site as massive as that goes down without a simple "be back soon" redirect, something is up and it can't be good. Allot of people payed that subscription fee recently and they are getting the shaft every minute that it's down. I really hope it gets back up in a timely fashion, but I also hope that the subscribers get at least retro active term increase.

I could see the problem if the score was unbelievable... point taken.

Thanks for the very fast response Massman, much appreciated.

Hey there, Now I've added a futuremark link, but I see no reason why this would be flagged as "insufficient verification". I'd like to have this rectified and I have to ask.....why would this, with a totally legit screenshot and all settings included, be flagged in the first place? url: http://www.hwbot.org/compare.do?resultId=836994 Thanks, Rev

A simple password setup for joining teams should be easy, but that's not your job NBOC :: No Borders OC Team Member to be removed - ocgmj Thanks jmke

oc's officially on NBOC, please ignore this request. He is not unwanted lol.

Hi there, A few of us have started a a forum and would like to add a bot for submissions. The software used is SMF 1.1.7 Simple Machines. Would it be possible to add this? Thanks for your consideration, Rev

Thanks jmke.
