i think thats a good thing, give people a chance to compete purely based on tweaking skill and not needing a crazy chip, thats why i always liked pcmark05
seriously great week, amazing to bench with such benchers during the week, some highlights for me, Shamino being introduced as Mr Wolf from mongolia, and Peter's howl to the moon in response, benching pi with fredyama-san again, insane to post the highest 32m result ever on stage (even if it was beaten twice in the coming days) watching duck-san and Vince bench the 4-way rig, with Tin in support, definatly a sight to see elmor on the VGA, i don't think anyone has an understanding on subzero VGA like Jon Hiwa is a nutcase with memory, always knows the right timings to set and has a great understanding of IC's and of course, benching with hicookie and Dino, always a pleasure!
not sure if this is posted elsewhere, excuse if it is, just saw this on Australian website ----------------- Update for the Grand Final: Total 16 teams: 3 from America's, 5 from EMEA and 4 from APAC, presumably another 1 from each region through the Lords of Overclocking contest.. That leaves one place TBD. Confirmed Date for Grand Final: September 28. Focused product: X79 for MB, VGA:TBD Interesting choice going with X79.. That would point to a 3Dmark11 stage for VGA. Presumably the CPU benchmark/s will have a multi limitation so massive CPU clocks are a moot point. Cold bugging will be interesting. Last year no torches were allowed (venue requirement) so a big powerful hairdryer would be needed in that case.
let me introduce, futurarama massman http://www.quickmeme.com/futurarama-massman/?upcoming
yeah Yamunsa, thats the method I use, then i just use a script to detect certain points in the benchmark, say for example, that web page rendering has started, then the drive change it triggered automatically, then later after hdd general is completed, the next drive change occurs
damnit dont remind me sure Steve I love saki!
okay so for my "55" its not memory or cpu and before it occured i had 1-2 hours testing with cpu on air cooler at 1.3v and just testing memory timings, i also tried what Petri was suggested about mount pressure, I tried a couple CPUs with just air cooler sitting on top of them and no mount kit, I also blasted the socket out with electrical contact cleaner to no avail, actually before this occured the gd65 was performing brilliantly, memory frequency/timings looked on par with asus/giga, bandwidth looked good and the board just did what it was told, seemed to be the most solid out of the box board i have used from MSI, Dino I havnt seen 16x on any board, except in server2003 without ME installed..
these points have been syphoned off to m.beier, so he doesnt look so bad sharing is caring
youngpro22, thats a very creepy mix of youngpro and dinos22 this guy is obviously a fan of both of us Dino
Jury I have the exact issue as you on GD65, 2 hours of air testing on a new board and post code 55 no matter what Tried 3 CPU, many ram, left it 24 hour without battery
lol no doubt thats me
