  1. Final decision will be done on Monday. The crew who handle this issue needs to wait his response first and then check all possibilities.

     

    My personal opinion is, that the case is quite clear, but let's hope there will be some miraculous explanation for this.

    I just need to ask why? After all these years, you would think these issues would disappear, but no.

  2. would it make him very sick/kill him? I thought drinking LN2 or even breathing the smoke is very,very bad for you?

     

    or turn him into some sort of mutant? :P

     

    The air we are breathing contains 78% of nitrogen. So breathing the steam will not do anything. If you swallow it, then it can really hurt you. I guess Sam did have a bit of accident over there as we can see some steam coming out long time after he took it in the mouth!

     

    Nice show guys! :)

  4. It was perfect! Thanks for all the people who was here and thanks for the sponsors, of course.

     

    Massman is a party animal and actually I start to feel too old for these 3 days of partying events :D

    But this time it was not Serious Failure 3 Days in row for sure!

     

    Hopefully all got safely back to home and will be happy with their new CPU's (soon)!

     

    P.S We have big plans with PJ, so next year it will be 200..2000...20 000 CPU's ;)

  5. Hi all!

     

    Time flies and we get older and more lazy. Still some things won't ever change.

    It is once again time to have fun in Finnish summer with European overclockers!

     

    of%20gathering%20X.png

     

    This year we will have nice gathering with some of the best people I know from this scene.

     

    Participants are: Massman, ryba, pepinorang, stummerwinter, giorgioprimo, neoforce, pofigist.

    From Finland: Asmola, Junksu, Macci, Sampsa, me.

     

    Idea of the OC part:

     

    Overclocking nowadays is purely a race of best samples.

    You need to have shift loads of money or you need to try to be a good friend of someone.

    Most of the overclockers have huge amount of talent, but they are limited with crappy samples.

     

    In this event we will play lottery with CPU's and I do hope,

    that there would be at least few good ones, but no one before they all have been tested.

     

    The participants have a test in summerplace before they will receive any CPU's.

    They need to be able to sit in the highest platform in Sauna 15 minutes in 120C° naked while others take pictures and post them on facebook.

    More likes you get, more CPU's you receive.

     

    Yes, cool story!

     

    The main idea is to see friends and have fun in Finnish summer!

     

    The short schedule:

     

    Thursday - Summerplace, alcohol, food, sauna and swimming etc.

    Friday - OC and on the evening nice party in Tammerfest city festival

    Saturday - OC and on the evening nice party in Tammerfest city festival with a bit more beers

    Sunday - Go home!

     

    Sponsors of this event are:

     

    Jimm's PC store

    Tones.be

    Intel

     

    We would all need thank them for helping me to do this event! Without them OC scene would be completely dead in the Nordic countries

    (Except Denmark where they have Mark)

  6. Hi all!

     

    Now it is time to start first EU wide competition in my new forum. All the people who take part are automatically taking part to the lottery, where you can win motherboard. Winner of the whole competition will get Core i7 3770K CPU!

     

    The idea of the competition is to get highest possible score in 3Dmark03 with fixed 4.0GHz CPU speed and single GPU VGA on air cooling.

     

    Check out all the rules and other info from the competition thread:

    http://www.sf3d.fi/forum/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=526

     

    Results must be posted to the competition thread and also to Hwbot.org and write "SF3D OC Tweaking 2012 competition" in to explanation field.

     

    Good luck to all who take part!

  7. "55" happens after several reboots. At first its fine. Clock to 5.5ghz and its fine. Its still fine until you get 55 and then it gets stuck. I do one ram stick(i remove the outer channel) and its fine. (but cpu sucks lol)

     

    i don't think its a mounting issue or bending issue.

     

    Ok, then it is some other issue like you said.

     

    I have done a lot of different things with this GD65 and luckily no issues so far. Well, they can come out of nowhere like a lightning :)

     

    But for real GD65 seems to be very solid board and I raise my hat to MSI for it!

  8. I got code 55 issues on asus board when I tried to use cpu without hs. That way cpu did not make good contact with some certain pins in the socket and I was always stuck at 55 code.

     

    So can some of you 55 guys try your setup without mounting the cooler properly and let it just lay on cpu with it's own weight.

    My random guess is, that there might be issues with socket soldering or pcb is just bending too much. But most likely the issue is in the socket area or I can be completely wrong of course.
