  1. Does this mean all hardware will be the same for the competitions across all events for the year? Or does it mean you will be posting the hardware used ahead of each event? Personally I think it would be great if able to keep it same throughout the entire season and announce at the beginning of the season so most can prepare as much as possible. Of course with that there is the thought that attendees at the end of the season events have a slight advantage but that's just the nature of the beast IMO.
  2. Looking for 2x8GB set of DDR3 1333mhz sticks OC, brand, timings, voltage doesn't matter. Will just be used for young kids school work. All sets I can find new are almost $100 which seems absurd. PM me with what you got
  3. Also interested in FX-8370 and best of Sempron 145's.
  4. Made it too good to pass up, I'll take it!
  5. Not sure there are really much more options currently then Praxis and Open Benchtable with Dimastech gone. Both look cool but serve different purposes in my eyes. Praxis- more permanent, not for travel, almost a case replacement Open Benchtable- focus on necessities, good for travel, cheaper, smaller footprint
  6. What was the old DFI enthusiast site that had all the modified BIOS?
  7. As someone who has been around long enough (not benched long enough) to watch the community and this site grow, I appreciate this viewpoint more than others. The elaborate plans to even the competition out is nonsense to me as if you don't have the money or backing to be at the top, you're doing it for nothing but yourself. And if that's the true point, who really cares about your standing in one league or another. You don't need league rankings to understand how stack up against others, you have a database of results to compare to. If you find enough to be at the top of top, grind your way up. Being ranked first in a hardware league that is a sub-league of another league really isn't that rewarding. Not everyone needs trophies. :end nonsensical rant:
  8. Wish you weren't across the pond, would like to have this just for coolness sake!
  9. Does this mean there are or will be multiple versions? Will order one soon enough, also have DT but want to support you guys and how much you do for the community :celebration:
  10. Picked up 6800K instead. Thanks for the space!
  11. Hopefully this is why I've never killed a CPU or at least a good excuse for not pushing enough Forgot to knock on wood!
  12. 28 here, got into hardware/OC back in my sophmore year of high school. Been into computers since I was really little. First home PC was IBM Aptiva followed by a Gateway. First hardware I built on was socket 478 (P4P800 SE and 2.4C Northwood). High school was the only time I really benched. After then, had time but no money. Now I have money but no time. Throughout always hoarded and tested hardware but never really XOC. Currently consider myself more of a fan than a particpant. Like the old guy who always tries to hop into the pickup basketball game but it just never really works out

    DimasTech?

    So be expecting a firesale??
  16. I'm all for carpooling and shouldn't be a room issue as I'm going by myself. I have a new wedding that literally popped up last night so I'm double checking my PTO at work now considering that. I'll post back up later today to confirm my departure. EDIT: Looks like I will be able to take a day off, so just depends on if it will be Friday or Monday. I'll move this to PM for you and I to talk Jason but would like to hear from others if they are coming in early or staying an extra day.
  17. Confirmed coming solo. I'll bring as many materials as possible, can't/don't want to list them all. Obv willing to loan whatever I can. (Have to make up for being severely underprepared for Montreal this year and highly grateful for the ones who helped) Anyone staying through Monday? Trying to determine to take Friday or Monday off work.
  18. So would the great fix be adjustable or removable TDP by the motherboard? Am I gathering correctly that while we can force a PState in XP currently, we still have to be mindful of TDP as it will change the PState as we get closer or reach the TDP limit?
  19. I'll be there but probably won't bring as cool of hardware as the rest of you due to I don't think I'll be able to get a decent LN2 pot in time. We'll see how that goes. Hardware: DFI 939 Asus 478/478 Asus AM3/FM2 Asus & GB 1150 (possibly) Asus 2011 (possibly) Single stage Watercooling Old dewar that's never been used (if needed) As many monitors, keyboards, mice I can get ahold of Probably will be bringing a non-OC friend that is interested but will double donate for the both of us
  20. For the board itself, let's go ahead and yes. Depending on how the rest of your sale(s) go still interested in CPUs and possibly OCZ Plat.
