  1. No, that's just the nature of competitions. If an event started and ended on a thursday, you may put a score up over the weekend, but if someone beats you, you will (or others will) try and find the time on wednesday or thursday to rebench. Ultimately the person who has only one chance to bench probably wont win - if you only played tennis once a week, you wouldn't expect to win a title on the tour.

  2. There are 10080 minutes in a week. Each minute:

     

    1st gets 2pts

    2nd gets 1pt

    3rd gets 0.5pt

     

    Then at the end ot the week,

     

    1st gets 10000 pts

    2nd gets 5000 pts

    3rd gets 2500 pts

    ...

     

    So if you go from number 1 the whole week to 2nd in the last few hours due to a sandbagger, you still get a win. If you've saved it until the end, more fool you.

  3. Among other problems...

     

    Even with bios 30 (all power saving disabled)

     

    Memory will not go over 1600Mhz (DDR3 2133Mhz 1.65v stock, works on UD7)

    debug 67 code, HARD lock (requires reflash or removing memory to one stick then reset CMOS) when increasing memory speeds past 1600Mhz

    Memory timings will not save OR if they do it doesnt save properly (X-Y-X-ZZ saves as X-X-Y-ZZ)

    Turbo multi options for each core disappears after bios save (only to come back with reflash)

     

    Yes, I see all of these. The only way to change CPU multiplier is with ELEET control turned on, but for review I need Turbo to work properly.

  4. This vote is pretty one sided. It's the luck of the draw - one country may have an etailer that sells early one time, and next release it could be another. There could be scope in the enthusiast league (where money, volt mods, access to hardware before release and big ass air coolers are needed). The only time new a hardware release would *adversely* affect the rankings is if a manufacturer decides to have an event based on the top 10 the day after release. Almost everyone knows the status quo, and can tell if people are just up in the rankings due to getting hardware or actually putting effort in.

    - Evga X79 FTW

    --- 030: ftp://ftp.evga.com/bios/E777_030.zip

     

    - Evga X79 SLI

    --- 030: ftp://ftp.evga.com/bios/E775_030.zip

     

    Adds 2400MHz Memory Frequency Option

    Fixed issue where applying voltage in ELEET caused system shutdown

    Fixed Default CPU Multiplier

    Fixed issue where disabling LAN2 disables PCIE devices

     

    Will try this tonight. Anyone else had issues with the EVGA X79 boards, BIOSes 28 and 29? Turbo or/and memory issues?

     

    Edit: From the EVGA Forums, Jacob_F:

     

    We found an issue related to S4 resume, as a precautionary we have pulled the update for now and recommend using BIOS 29 for now.

  6. Ticket ID: 1429

     

    Priority: Low

     

    On the GSkill page:\r\n\r\n\"Last month, GSkill memory was used by 23.45% of the overclockers. Their most popular motherboards where Ripjaws, RipjawsX, PerfectStorm\"\r\n\r\nmotherboards? :) \r\n\r\nAlso, please add RipjawsZ to the database so we can select them. Thanks :)
