  1. Pad come off cpu, stuck to pin and missing a pin. Was still running when i turned it off.
  2. This makes good sense, sadly you can't buy a second hand apex anything for under $100 which is more than the price difference between dark and apex xi. So you're saying that the Apex boots faster and has software that works. Only thing not to like is that it doesn't support XP. In that case, what new does the dark offer? Slow boot, software that doesn't work, xp support which was available on prior apex models. To me it looks like it's all about trade-offs and what one is willing to give up.
  3. That'd probably work and cost less
  4. I think the rookie makes a valid point. Perhaps turning off balanced mode would allow you to make a proper submission and prevent this in the future.
  5. thanks, score might be a little lower than it should be. probably easy to beat
  6. Yea, finally got it working. Asked Alexro for suggestions and it seemed to do the trick. Thanks to everyone else as well. Pointers from everyone helped. 4 yrs away and new platform is tricky. Glad I never had to deal with delidding and cracking tim.
  7. was bad time, couldn't get chip to run full pot. This was -180 quick test to get an idea. Spent more time trying to get it to run full pot.
  8. I didn't really try, ran 6.5 for a run, then had issues, probably gpu. So set it back down to 6g, then ran a few, then card was wet and didn't run anymore. I admit, I was lazy.
  9. First thing i ran cold after 4 yrs away. Was slacking on the cpu. Picked it up used on a forum and did no pre-testing.
  10. Run all the benches, distribute scores among countrymen
  11. Anyone have a spare display port cable?
  12. You can always stay with someone else and then sneak out in the morning before they wake up.
  13. They're probably mfr, I bought them a long time ago and have never been used. What a waste of money. Sort of in the process of being sold.

  15. I would have to agree with both allen and roman. No competition in these rankings is mainly because of the price. Dropping $1k on a 980ti or modding a $1k titan is a lot of money. Even when they were $700-800 it was a lot but it keeps going up. I see the lack of "reward" in terms of points is a direct result of the costs involved. If one were to look at the top of the leaderboards for single vga 3d (consisting of 980ti, titanx, etc), the only competition around is that which comes from vendors or people working closely with the vendors. The average enthusiast just doesn't have the means to compete. On the other hand, 2d is more affordable and thus more submissions. You get a boost in points for those same guys working alongside the vendors or those who are working for the vendors.
  16. the sempy is smashing, i'll keep an eye out for the 6.5ghz run
  17. sad that at 5ghz this is 11th fastest for this cpu
  18. Nice, I was gonna try this on my p5q3 and it blew up when i hit the power button
  19. Nice job, don't think my cpu has got any more left in it. Surely not 6.2
  20. Aren't we all. I'm way off on all these 4xxx series cards and have no clue what it is.
