You mentioned that you see scores with missing url as well as cpu-z whereas all the scores have GPUz as well as CPUz screen as mentioned in the rules. And the scores are well in line to what is expected. If you doubt any score, again report and the mods with their experience will be able to judge whether anything fishy is going or not and will take appropriate action.

I doubt that its true. If you do see any submission which is missing cpu-z or gpu-z (for 3d), do report them and the moderators would surely take care.....

hmmm.....did not try the mobo with air cooling more than a few hours, and as you said it was very easy to clock but with a 5.8Ghz chip, even booting at 5.7Ghz was a hit or miss. Sometimes it was booting and sometimes it wont boot and was stuck at I believe A2. Hard reboot *sometimes* resolved the issue and sometimes it did not.....Will be starting to test 'next gen' this weekend with the new bios on the same board, hopefully would not have such issues.....

Not too happy with the Bios on GD65. Stops booting at certain clocks but a hard reboot (I believe Giga P67 had similar issue which needed soft reboot) only sometimes allows the same clock to stick around. Hopefully this Bios would be better

I hate cheaters....I like to put my blood and sweat in the results I get...... Can you sell me one of your scores.....I will pay you with cash earned with blood and sweat,

and I thought there are simply less submissions for these benchmarks. Can you then even look out for 3d01 and Aquamark top scores????

Its always the higher card.....So 8800GTX SLI AFAIK

hahahahahaha.....OMG......got it, and I thought wow...MSI is breaking its trend, ....But I guess this is to be expected.....

I believe there is no limitation of MSI Mainboard and Graphic Card according to the Press Release sent by MSI, can the first post be edited with the info.....

Awesome clocks and score Gyrock....Congrats....

Why does it feel like that I have seen the chip before??? hehehehe....anyways great clock and good luck for MOA...One piece of the puzzle solved,

Was thinking of joining but no use anymore...

Thanks, HC & Dom, would be testing again in a few hours....hopefully for a better result,

Awesome score and WR as expected,

Afford does not mean you have to buy. Afford simply means you need to be able to bench them, whether be it by getting sponsored, borrowing or buying is upto the individual......

Hey Gunny, You of all people should not complain, this is not the first time that MSI or Gigabyte have these rules. The competition is to find the best overclocker in the world, you cannot be the best if you cannot afford the top hardware. Ofcourse with SB its now even more difficult to beat some1 who has a CPU like yours but it has always been like this. By the way, may I recommend to you, selling the 5.96 SB chip??? You will mostly be able to afford all the other stuff in your list,

Till the time Nvidia drivers give option to set Tesselation ON/OFF, I doubt GTX680 can really take off among overclockers. It needs insane clocks like Vince's results to break 7970 records.

Yeah, have never heard of non-reference design able to push 100% jump in clocks. 200/300/400Mhz at max I say......

awesome score as usual,

Warpath??? I say they are hellbent on making themselves look like idiots/fools on hwbot. They all get on a single thread and repeat the same lines in broken english over and over again. (sorry for the rudeness)

Willing to spend 300$ on the joke,

Thats just for Slogan Winner alongwith a decent Z68 mobo, I do not think there is anything wrong with the prize, but yeah I believe MSI would have Slogans for the upcoming few years,

Traditionally it has been always like this, just that with Sandybridge even air binning was possible and even air/water people were for the most part able to compete with DI/LN2 users. But it seems IB will again be a exclusive playground for LN2 users

Is it possible to differentiate scores of 3D11, UH, 3DMV without verification link if someone tampers with the CPU/GPU clocks????

waiting bios for MSI Z77-GD65....
