Pity those who paid much money for pre-selected LGA2011 chips or spent enough time on picking fly away... as well as good old Ivy owners (prolly it makes some sence to allow any of these for non-CPU tests?).This year's MOA is rly a huge money demand -( p.s. cool tests for class B though again.. platforms & CPUs should be changed to win Save poor guys' wallets, prohibit 2600K

Though I won't challenge you guys this time.. Till it was stated that Titan, Haswell and SB-E will be allowed in semi-finals they must be there. Would like to see these benchies: SuperPI 32M for Haswell/3DM11 or FS or FSE for GPU/Cinebench 11.5 again (good for globals now, interesting to catch lucky run) or wPrime would be OK for 'another platform (but not Ivy)'. Motivation: 1. Haswell is a must for promo purposes; 2. Titan is a beast we should see this time and try catch some WRs (GTX 770&780 Lights bye-bye till better times? or WW Final?); 3. SB-E is the thing everyone who competes has already got and it doesn't demand extra money waste and too much time to tweak precisely.

Great chip! Pity it's ES..

And here they go, binned 4770s -)

Wow congratz on first (?) xtreme xperience!

It could do even more but without cinebench score progress that time -)

wooow can you sell that? -)

America was the hardest this time... Good one Ronaldo!

Massive! Impressive! Especially Win8 tip, thanks!

Go'n'win the 2nd stage man! You truly deserve it! Congrats XA! Thanks all who helped me this qualifier time: T0lsty, Sergii, Yuri Mykolyshin, Perica_barii, Xtreme Addict, my car Ari & some others. It's not only my achievement but rly huge team work!

Splave has slightly better one. But he's got +70 MHz -)) Anyway MSI loses to ASUS 1-1.3 s.

Final minutes.. silence...

Jeeeeezeeeeeee! Congratz Ronaldo! Awesome! Performance madness around here! And I wonder how did the card go so far on stock VRM. You nailed it!

Musthave! And nobody will worry about 'last-hour-hwbot-crash' Start your engines gentlemen!

Okay guys I'm done. Have to sleep now and good luck for the last-day benchers! Results will be published in the morning or when I get up -)) don't like sandbagging in its classic form.
