    GIGABYTE OC Series is back - GA-Z97X-SOC Force LN2

    in General hardware discussion

    Posted

    Computex is starting tomorrow, but that does not mean that the goodies didn’t start to show up yet. As the dragon boat festival takes place today in Taiwan, and GIGABYTE’s press conference is ready to take off at the Brown Sugar club, we took a sneak peak at GIGABYTE’s lates motherboard. And guess what – it is built for overclockers, and not just any overclockers but extreme overclockers. Yaaay!

     

    BTW, maybe you have noticed that now we have lab501 in English too :D

    Computex 2014: Who Is Going? Where are the OC events!

    in Offtopic

    Posted · Edited by Monstru

    Ok, I managed to extend my stay until 8th. So my free evenings (for now) are 1, 6 and 7 (and of course we can hook up at the other parties I am going if you guys attend). So if this is more suitable for Petri and others, let's do it on 6 after HWB OC event or smth like that.

     

    Pieter - as far as I am concerned I do not care much about the area (and I don't know Taipei THAT well), I just wish for a burger& beer place or smth like that where we can all talk, grab a bite and have a decent beer. Nothing fancy, just good old fashioned overclockers beering around.

     

     

    oh boy Monstru is coming

     

    Oh...oh...OOOOOOOh Yeaaaaaaaah ;)

    Why I was and I am still busy

    Impressive stuff you have there bro, I wish I could have time for this. Hell, I am busy like crazy just managing the launch articles (Ivy, 690, etc) and taking care of the little guys doing mobile reviews.

    Ney - you scare me :D

     

    knopfler - that is why this all started, because nobody knew this guys, they were X. How can they do that? If any known clocker would have done that everybody would be like "OMFG, you god, you are so great". Now you see my point? :)

     

    BipBip - I am a very friendly person and everybody knows that I am friendly with everybody. However, I also have my limits...and I see you really need to push them further and further... Let me say this again, maybe I was not clear in the first time - manipulation means cheating. You said manipulation. That is a very bad word to use.

     

    That being said, I clearly stated my opinions in this thread and I really do not have that much free time, so I really do not have time for this. If you liek to attack people because they are obvious better then you, fine by me, go ahead and shoot.

     

    @ Ramiro, Genieben & the rest of the LAB501 crew - please stop posting in this thread.

    I like the first suggestion. If you can't tell LN2 from air clocks, then why have separate categories at all? Poparamiro has defined a new limit of air cooling, and the conclusion can only be that LN2 doesn't give such a huge advantage after all - if you do the mods correctly.

     

    Heh bro...it's not only that, as I said... If Ramiro uses air and x clocker uses LN2, it's something. If Ramiro uses air and I use LN2...it's a bit different :)

     

    Also, the hardware matters. With SB or some GFX, good air cooling can make you a god. Now try getting that with Dothan, Cedar Mill or Bulldozer :))))

     

     

    @ Genieben - dude, we can bench with Ramiro in the meat house fridge :)

     

    @ Kenny - Ramiro has never shared anything with anybody. He is a person I personally truly admire. Why doubt him? He is the guys that made cooler testing sites to change methodology...

     

    And yeah, nachtfalke's hardware has been used by somebody else in the past. Does that make him a cheater? And let me tell you a secret. This little guy pissed me off in the past because of his attitude on local forums. He is a young enthusiast (in terms of how long he has been oc-ing) so he does not have enough experience and he can be a handful sometimes, I give you that. BUT, this guy love what he does, he REALLY works hard, and he is good at it. And I really appreciate him for this. I would bench with him with all my pleasure anytime, instead of benching with half of the LN2 dudes on HWB. And I think you know me, and you know I am hardcore to the bone... (and if anyone doubts that, I am seriously considering quiting oc-ing =)))) )

     

    @ Ney - that is puny bro...you wanna see my stack? =))

    Honestly I am always pro explaining and helping others understand, but after this thread is been going on and on and on and on and on and on for months, I am getting sick of it.

     

    Overclocking is luck (hardware) + HARD work + skill (knowledge, etc). If anybody wants to disagree, feel free to, but remember I have a clue what I am talking about... We've lost competitions due to luck (bad hardware), due to work (we didn't push hard enough), and do to skill (we were not experienced enough or we did not have the best strategy). We've won competitions because of the same reasons: we had better hardware, we worked harder or had better skill, depending on the situation. I've learned to accept that, and I am sure all those who were in the same competitions were in the same situation and they know very well what I am talking about. However, luck alone does nor produce repeatable results, again you know what I am talking about.

     

    Now, if you cannot get results similar to others, you might be lacking luck (hardware), hard work or skill. If a person gets best results for what he is doing, I am sure it is about a little bit more then luck...And if a person can't get those results over and over and over again...it is not just luck...

     

    Personally I am sick of tired of seeing this guys being attacked over and over and over again by people that are not capable enough of getting good clocks on LN2. What is the point of the air-cooling section on HWBot if somebody can't be the best without being suspicious???? Yes gentleman, some people are that good on air that they can beat average LN2 results. Wow, what a shocker!!! Yes, we didn't notice this until now because we did not have the category. Now we notice it. And I would advise all those that want to be overclockers to start working, if they see that they have worse results on LN2 the air.

     

    Most of the big dogs don't play on air, it is normal. That is why you do not usually see extraordinary results on air, cause people are busy with LN2 or DICE or whatever. And the guys you see being extraordinary on air are not the "big names". Is that so hard to understand? Does anybody has a problem with admitting they are simply not good enough??? I mean, don't get me wrong, asking is ok, there is no problem with that. Accusing is a totally different story, and I see it keeps repeating. Kenny - Ramiro and nachfalke did not share a thing, why are you speaking this kind of things? It is all in this thread...

     

     

    Now we can solve this in 3 ways:

     

    -please delete the air cooling category, since the ones who are really not good LN2 clockers will feel insulted by the better air results

    -please somebody, Pieter, come here and bench with Ramiro and tell the world how it felt like...

    -please, oh please don't make me let my work aside and start using air again just to prove what can be done with air cooling...( I remembered I once held the 4th 3DMVantage overall score using air-cooling :) ).

    Monstru can claim whatever he wants but those are super cherry picked-card type results, if they sold the card to each other I'm sorry but it's kind of suspicious.

     

    Good, now I expect an apologies for this ^^^

     

     

    LAB501 team - guys, no matter what happens, please keep a polite tone. It does not matter how outrageous some allegations are, we do not talk trash. Please remember this...

     

    BeepBeep - you are 16 years old and jobless, and overclock what you have. The people you are so easily accusing of ill behavior are both > 30 years old, have jobs and responsabilities, but they still take this to a level hard to achieve by many. It is wiser to learn, and really work hard, before you accuse people that you should learn from... Not to speak about the fact that now I see I am making claims...
