    Oh, quick note too - if your sticks are dead/badly degraded the trick from d9 times of throwing them in the freezer over night or longer might work. Got 3 (out of 4, last remains unable to boot) 2000 c8 dimms that didn’t manage XMP, JEDEC boot or post at all before back to where they belong around 2000 7-7-6 at 1.66V. 

    ...and if you put them in the freezer for a while remember it. I just spent half an hour searching my favorite kit turning my whole place upside down only to remember I had put them in the freezer a while back to recover a bit...

    Nice Job. What are the specs of the cascade and the ss?

    The Cascade is T.Rex's Cascade and from what I've seen it can do -90 to -95 on Core 2 Duos no matter the voltage and -93 for single core high leakage Nehalem/-78 multicore. The SS is a little Devil unit (also T.Rex's) I believe and it does about -30 on the NB. Glad to know someone who's benching gear I can use while visiting for a benchweekend :D

    Not Bad Ground I am more interested in the board is it a Premium or a Deluxe with a Premium Bios flashed? 

    It's a P5E3 Premium. Voltage is only at 1.7V since I couldn't get more clock with more voltage, but I think the limiting factor is currently me since 775 is still new to me. Doubt the board is at it fsb limit for 32M though.

  4. Is there a good guide to reflash the SPD on Hypers? I'm not sure if its the issue but before writing them off I would rather try it before throwing them out. I have a kit of 1866c7 2GB Hypers that were at first misbehaving (only being recognised as half capacity - 1 stick booted up was being recognised as 1GB, 2 sticks as 2GB) and then stopped working completely while a buddy of mine has a pair of GTX2s that went from working perfectly fine to not working at all. How to reflash SPD without messing them up? I've tried with Rweverything manually copying over from a working stick but that didn't work, now I have no idea what else could work - at least I couldn't get SPDtool to work yet / couldn't figure out how exactly it works...

  5. I think if you are spending 80+shipping on 775 chips you are most likely looking for a chip thats good for gold on cold too which kinda defeats the purpose ^^ Good luck with sale anyways.

  6. After login I also end up on this page (safari and chrome)

    also erroring out if not logged in. https://hwbot.org/user/ground1556/ (confirmed by people in US and Germany). It appears that not everyone is running into this issue.

    Maybe something messed up with the database?

     

    Edit: Looking at other broken profiles, it seems to only affect team captains. Been checking through all the top 10 teams and all the captains are bugged out.

  7. Have you benched anything on cold? If not, start with something cheap first... I know a fair lot of people who learned that the hard way.

     

    Plastidip is a pain to remove if not applied in a thick enough layer (spent half a day trying to remove leftovers from an x58a-oc recently), and even then it can be stuck under components and hard to remove. 

    Eraser - depending on how flat the surface you are insulating is, can be fairly alright to remove but not exactly fun. 

    Vaseline - not too hard to remove with liquid

    Shop towel - nothing on the board basically, but I've never had much luck with this, always had condensation issues after a little while
