Since x299 supports two completely different architectures (Kaby-X and Sky-X) that have things like FIVR vs. no FIVR, extra PCI-E lanes etc. it's up to the motherboard vendor to support one or both of these. ASUS chose to make a set of BIOSes that support XP but they are Kaby-X only. Not sure how it works on the OCF?

Liquid Helium? ;)

Olive theme ftw! Well done Frank

Excellent work as always. You put my efficiency to shame :D

You've got PM

It has become more and more apparent that people actually don't know how competition points worked in Rev. 7. IMO it's hard to express an opinion on something if you didn't even bother to figure out how it worked in the first place but whatever, the world is your oyster, c'est la vie and all that. In Rev. 7, comp points were added and removed from your world ranking on a 12-month, rolling basis. Therefore if you kept your comps activity up they provided a permanent boost to your ranking and if you stopped participating those points would go away. Having people propose this exact same system for Rev. 8 like it's the greatest new idea is hilarious to watch ?

Mystery solved, at the native resolution of my browser / laptop the third I disappears: When I click on the image to view it fullscreen, the third I is visible. Weird!

I must need glasses I could swear I saw II instead of III. What's wrong with necro bumps? I am looking at the database of old results that happened before I joined HWBot and commenting on interesting stuff. If you don't like seeing these threads pop up, then just don't go in the subforum? You can comment exclusively on new stuff by clicking on the subs on the main page, those are guaranteed to be < 24 hrs old...

There are people in Europe who can forward it to me

I didn't know you used to bench cold before your GPUpi career

Ok let me know if you change your mind. CPU is valuable, board is roughly worth the cost of shipping + 1 cold beer ?

Cool, time for some AMD 32M on LN2 then - there's a new Carrizo chip this year you know

This is a RIIF, not RIIIF

I didn't realise any of these people were retired, sad! Now I regret making this topic. Maybe there is some hope still for Hideo? Last results in the 8700K era, less than 1 year ago.

Nicely done

Any chance you would consider splitting the 5800K from the board? That board is not idea for LN2 and would increase shipping unnecessarily for me (and probably others here too).

I think the issue is that these CPUs are being listed under both gen 1 and 2. Also, 2000 series desktop chips are missing completely.

Great list! Shamino still benches for ASUS, Roman even mentions in his latest video that he benched the 28-core. I guess he doesn't upload scores on HWBot anymore but for me that's not retired Similar situation for @TaPaKaH. Calling FUGGER retired is plain wrong, he beat Alan's PCMark 10 WR at 9900K release! Is Kingpin really retired? He Uploaded a bunch of WRs for the last two Nvidia GPU releases (1080ti and Titan V), now I just assume he is still working on perfecting the 2080ti KPE before posting scores.

Sounds easy

Wow sad to hear, I try to beat their chiller 3D scores all the time - last sub in March 2018, maybe just a sabbatical? I've seen K404's crazy all-LN2 multi-GPU stuff but Vadimua is a new one to me, will have to have a browse around their subs.

I thought Sofos still did stuff? Goes to show, he last subbed in 2017 but I see him in the rankings so often that I just assumed he was still active. I can't believe I forgot about Dinos and Hipro though, true legends! I'll edit these 3 into the OP.

I browse old rankings a lot so I thought I'd use this time to also pick out some notable retired OCers - there's no bombproof way of telling whether someone is retired so if any of you are still around just reply here and accept my apologies! @knopflerbruce - one of the few to run AM2 on LN2, almost 3,000 hardware golds - most ever. No subs since 2017 @Christian Ney - memory OC legend and of course one of only 6 people to get the Aquamark achievement @Mad222 - King of AM3 with the only sub 10 mins SP32M. No subs since 2013 but possibly doing some work under the @GalaxOCLab group account? @fredyama - similar to Mad, still occasionally active on group/manufacturer accounts . SP32M records in the 3770K, 7700K and 9900K eras. @AndreYang - I can't believe he hasn't subbed on his personal account since the Haswell era! His 980X Pifast WR may be the result with the most comments (127) @alibabar - First in the hardware masters rankings by over 10,000 pts even though there are no subs since early 2018. @dhenzjhen - owner of absolutely nuts scores like 7x Titan X Pascal GPUpi and quad-Xeon setups. No subs since 2017. @Massman - knows for being one of the few to be crazy enough to bench iGPUs and APUs on LN2 outside of comps @8 Pack - owner of multiple 3D global podium spots even though he has been inactive since 2017. @Vivi - still has the 780ti and 290x '03 records after all these years. @S_A_V - owner of the PCMark '04 record on LN2, on Phenom! Still ranked 5th in Russia after years of inactivity @Ananerbe - strong AMD bencher in the AM2/AM3 era with many 1M/32M podiums and 8.3+ GHz on Vishera @michel90 - still ranked Top 30 Extreme and #1 in Switzerland after almost 2 years of inactivity. Master of Geforce 200 series legacy 3D and 775 SuperPi @CherV - Not sure how I could miss her in my initial list! By far the top female overclocker of all time and hugely infuential around the FM2 / Ivy Bridge era @The_Game - Expert on the LGA775 socket, still holding two major Wolfdale 1M golds and being in the very small 725 MHz+ BCLK club @Aristidis - Part of the Greek XOC "gang", particularly strong 3D bencher during the Ivy Bridge era @TaPaKaH - King of 775 benching and binning but also a hugely influential figure in the overclocking community for more than decade. @Xtreme Addict - What to say about this larger-than-life figure? He made excellent LN2 OC guides and benched both 2D and 3D (all the way up to 4-way) at a very high level. Suggested by other members (thanks @zeropluszero, @Fasttrack, @suzuki, @Bullant and @Achill3uS): @dinos22 - for some reason the first thing to come to mind was that sick G3258 32M and also the 4-way '03 that stayed GFP for 5+ years. Aussie OC will miss you! @sofos1990 - so many insane 3D scores but the sub that sticks in my mind was the full-on crazy scientist DDR3 alltime frequency record with oscilloscopes in the rigpic. @hipro5 - 3D heroics are a little too far in the past for me to judge how amazing they were but that 680+ FSB E8600 all-time LGA775 SP1M record is ridiculous @SF3D - Only one to push the REX to over 700 MHz BCLK valid, but that's a silly achievement to point out here Extremely influential bencher with his own line of pots @poparamiro - very prolific classic 3D bencher on chiller, his scores are so ubiquitous in the rankings that I didn't even realise he was retired! @chew* - owner of the all-time Thuban 32M SP32M record and one of only 2 (besides Mad22, mentioned above) to achieve sub 12 mins @K404 - multi-GPU LN2 God who ran everything and anything around the GTX8000 / 9000 era @nachtfalke - the LN2/Cascade/SS version of poparamiro @robbo2 - one of only 5 benchers to do 8 GHz on both AM3+ and FM2 Who am I missing? It's kind of weird how so many of them stopped in 2017.

Has the money for a 28c HEDT platform but doesn't know about CPU-Z windows

Lame excuse, Division comps are run two or three times per year and cover everything from x299 all the way down to i3 on the Intel side and Threadripper down to APUs on AMD. Only someone who doesn't own any CPUs or GPUs wouldn't find their hardware represented.

What's so hard about Kanbini?
