Res: $220 #3 Gigabyte iRam x 7 They are what they are... all work fine although some of the battery's are a little tired and may not hold data on power cut. Used for PC05 and as benching drives and tbh they are a bit of a regretful sale. All cards will be supplied without ram but for additional $$ I can supply 512MB or 1GB sticks as required.

Max capacity 4GB per card. #4 HighPoint Rocket Raid 2320 8 port Pcie x 4 SataII raid controller.

Happy to answer any questions, post internationally, take bank transfer or use paypal. I'm also interested in trades for 7970, all keplar series and potentially large SSDs. For those interested in PC05 or large storage I'll likely be listing an Acard ANS-9010 and Chenbro 36 Port SAS Expander CK23601 shortly.

always assumed global requirements went with core count? i agree, if this isn't the case then it should be clarified.

Vamos a hacer HWBOT util!!!! Este es Cristian, esta desaparecido; puedes ayudar aunque solo sea compartiendo? i know this is a bit of a long shot but... the guy pictured is a friend of a very dear friend called Cristián Garro Caro.

very nice work there fella. solid review.

well done zero :celebration:

dangerous thought - make the pros bench on air or water to appeal to realworld users. i think your picking holes for the sake of it now. in the 12 odd pages of arguments i'm still waiting for the nugget of truth as to what thinking /changes will make a pro comp more attractive to new members or to current hwbot participants... has anyone actually done any true market research to see what the desired audience wants to see?

nice score but there's alot more you can get out of that areca

as a long time reader and now first time poster, (in this thread), i felt obligated to throw my 2 cents in after your last reply. Unlike the link posted you will find little discussion on Team.AU's stance in Pro OC in an Australian forum because however active and vibrant it is the Australian OC community is it's rather small. Team.AU regularly put themselves out there in the community through a number of channels and are readily contactable / accessible and open to direct discussion. For example I could pick up the phone and within 10 mins I would be able to speak directly to any of the top 20 Australian benchers. Online notification on their activities is neither needed or expected. We don't express all our thoughts on forums because more often than not we have had a chat in person or over the phone. As you will have seen, the majority of Team.AU online are threads, photos and discussions on meets and demos. However aloof online they have sometimes portrayed themselves in Australia they are measured like any other, by their actions. In an effort to distance myself from a perceived fanboy stance seen above I'm quite happy to say that over the years Team.AU and I have not always seen eye to eye. I've regarded some at times to be real bunnies and have been very comfortable in saying so, publicly and online. No doubt they have also felt the same about me lol. So, my perspective as to why Pro OC didn't have my readership.. Kingpin is the best example, (not meaning to single you out Vince with any malice). Kingpin's efforts are simply extraordinary. Seeing results like 2000 core clocks on a 680 with zombies hanging off, ln2 on the cpu, ram and gfx and more mods than you can shake a stick at is simply staggering... but sometimes I like to read FHM rather than full blown hardcore German anal porn. Was the pro League impressive - sure but I'm more interested in what my team mates did on a drunken weekend with a pos E66, P45 and a bottle of rum. Does that make the pro's any less impressive - no. imho Hwbot will never be as vibrant as it was in the 775 days. Overclocking was the thing at the time. It was fresh. It was just about affordable and was new. Most folks were in with a shot if they were hell bent on a WR. OS tweaking was pretty lack luster to many and subzero was cool as stink. Appealing to new members and a young readership today is going to be a tough ask in almost any hobby. The youngsters I've had the 'privilege' to work with / employ, lose interest in most things within 5 minutes. Personally having no interest or care of being labeled #sadoldcunt (in my mid 30's). I think it's going to be an uphill struggle to get kids into OC'ing unless you can make a benchmark on who can twitter the fasted or turbo charge your home-made 3D printer. I think we can all safely say that whatever the format of a Pro group we will likely see the same names and I doubt the format will make any noticeable difference. Oddly enough on my home forum one of the most followed threads is the 3D11 benchmarking & submission. Recently our Hwbot team held a sponsored comp for folks to have a go a winning a top board benching this very benchmark thinking 'we'll get good readership doing this'. It bombed harder than a chocolate tea-pot. Asking around after the fact as to why, it was suggested that many didn't enter because they knew their score was going to get beaten, (even though it was a random winner picked from entrants). The 3D11 forum thread firmly follows Tess on. The belief is held that OS tweaking, Tess off and subzero cooling is flat out cheating. FFS I cried but I can't deny that gamers are a disproportionately larger group than benchers (please don't go down this route Hwbot). On a side note I feel very sympathetic for benchers in the position of Rubass. Speaking for myself only, I recently received my first freebie from a manufacturer. It was a mediocre piece I was asked to review, (no doubt because someone with a more seasoned name couldn't be bother with such an average item). I couldn't have been more pleased and I believe it only happened because of my ranking in Australia in XOC. If, like the Pro League guys, my points were not ranked publicly I doubt I would have been given the opportunity. @ Massman - if you had a read of OCAU you could have come across our little corner and would have seen my post on this thread when it was highlighted: I have absolutely no doubt that for many who have posted here, Hwbot is the only competitive sport where they have made the world stage. As much could be said for the administrators of that sport. Bad choices are going to be made by both parties and only a compassionate approach by all will see it succeed to it's full potential. If in 50 years Hwbot is still alive I have no doubt a professional sporting body would be here to govern. A team with a history in sport, online, sponsorship specialists and events management professionals will be at the helm. Until that day happens I think we need to understand that you cannot fix indecision. Even a bad choice can be rectified if all concerned are humble enough to address the obvious. edit: had to edit in as dino posted whilst i was replying. I went subzero so i could mix it with the big boys. I went PC05 to stick it to youngpro but the bugger pulled out before I was ready to post a score. One of my happy benching moments was beating SniperOZ in an open OC comp. The nice thing about having Team.AU over here and being so accessible is being able to have a crack at them because they are the elite in Australia even if they are not 'elitist'.

length before girth

as well as not self moderating your previous 5 submissions for sector size abuse this sub did not have the result.txt page open which since the 1st of Jan is mandatory which, like sector size alteration, you know.

users hwbot image sig does not lead to actual user... poorly put but if you look at user VapoR. link you can see in his sig - united team of poland, ranked 22 etc but if you click on it your taken to another user Vapor in PURE.

awesome result well done!

no result txt shown and you have a history of abusing sector size to inflate your vs score.

having re-read the thread from the start p.1 reads like it has already been decided that implementation is going ahead and this is more a tweak discourse than actual discussion. p.2 starts to be a bit more understanding of what faults benchmarks have and their validity today but doesn't address the ramifications such a change could present. personally speaking i'm not in favor of such a dramatic change at all. i just don't see the bot as broken so cannot understand why we need such a wonder fix. sure there are heaps of benches i could care less if they were binned or not. i mean i've not benched am3 since the first wrapper killed scores, don't really bother with pifast, maxmemm pfft. i'm not into 01 or 32m but love pc05, (which i benched legit from day dot and recognise the disgraceful abortion some members of the community made it.. and were held in high esteem for doing so by others). noting that even though i'm not into 01 & spi 32m i have great respect for those that bench it proficiently as it is a true benchers benchmark and can be as much of a tweak fest as pc05. it'd be a sad day to see any of these go. i also feel that opening up ideas to the hwbot community is a great idea in principle but the obvious is striking - the vast majority of the community are not 'every month' active, do not read the front/news page as their favorite cookie points to their own profile or team page, don't read let alone post on the forums, have certainly been confused of late and many would not anticipate such a change. looking at this thread as a principle example, ultimately it'll be the voice of the few that have the loudest opinions heard and therefore have the most responsibility for the community as a whole. surely it's worth highlighting the successes of the past and building on them rather than changing the game altogether? when i'm invited on consultancy jobs to proffer business sense i usually ask 'where's the 5 year plan'. so common powers that be - before any major change is implemented where does hwbot want to be in 5 years time and as a community how can we help you achieve that goal? (because this idea looks like it's been drawn up on the back of a beer mat and the fine-tune ideas offered read as trying to polish a turd).
