  1. Thx for sharing Alex! I have 2 questions: 1. CPU compability with Haswell/DC/Ivy Bridge? 2. Can it be used to reglue IHS in stock position? The tools is looking good and the price is attractive
  2. Regarding mod - this one is pretty easy. Just buy a soldering station with a hot air (even a cheap one for 50-60 euro) and it will be very easy pulling off components might destroy soldering points and take even a trace with a soldering point. Believe me you don't want this. Just put some soldering grease on the resistor, warm it up with hot air and touch with soldering iron for few seconds and move soldering iron with a resistor and it will just be perfectly unsoldered. You are pushing great in terms of OCing so to be complete try to learn a bit more about soldering - practice on some dead hw. Friendly advice Regarding GPU-Z - I am not 100% sure right now, but from what I remember it will always shows power consumption at 20% in my case.
  3. Hmm Looking at R7 picture I am not sure that such version is good enough. Too low difference in points. I mean 1st place difference to 10th place which is relatively much easier is just 22,4 points. I am not sure if such difference is worth rerunning and pushing higher. I am more like a fan of leaving scaling system like it was in the past, just trying to apply 1.25 or 1.5 base for 3D.
  4. and what is the point? go subzero and grab more points/beat those guys (or me ). i5 4590 has more than 2000 entries, that's why it has big points. HW points are related to popularity of the model, that's all. Bin few cpus to get 110+ BCLK with around -120*C, push PSC on LN2 2800+ 6-10-6 supertight and grab high points If you are whining that it's too easy, what about old GPUs? Most of the 50 hw points are done on GPUs @ air, just new generation cpu for legacy benchmarks on cold, sometimes even SS and rerunning old gpus all over again when new CPU like Haswell, Skylake appears.
  5. To squeeze those extra 2-5 MHz BLCK you have to go LN2 (DICE is not enough) and go mems @ LN2. Also bin few cpus. Some guys might remember G.skill World Cup qualifier last year with Pentium G3240, how hard it was to get high BCLK cpu. That is not that easy and much harder than playing i3 6320 @ air with 103 MHz lock by Intel. Also HW points are counted for the amount of submissions by certain HW. Nothing to be pissed about it, those cpus are just popular. In fact I don't see anything wrong in current point system. Instead of reducing points - award more points for 3D and everything will be fine.
  6. @Rauf use VGA - DSUB adapter, you will have better CB/CBB regarding Matrix, all cards have similar CBB - around -125*C after restart, after shutdown (power off), around -110*C
