I could giver a shot if you want, would have to look over Stage 14 to make sure I have the rest of the necessary equipment.

The animosity is insane. OC(XOC) is a community. We here are a community. Stop belittling people and putting others down. People come from all different walks of life and have many different interests. Let them like what they like. I think people should bench what they like. Doesn't matter ELITE or NOVICE/ROOKIE/ETC. If you want to spend the coin and bench with the big boys, come on with it! If you want to stick to ambient cooling, its a large pool so you'll have your work cut out. There is something for everyone in whatever they like. Single Stages and Cascades are easier for some to build/buy/get whatever. They use those vs DICE/LN2. Let them! If you want to points hunt and record chase, you can either step up to the plate and play with the likes of Splave, OGS, Safedisk, Alex, etc OR you can just enjoy the hobby and take whatever points/records you get along the way with the hardware that YOU want to bench.

I can give a bit more insight at this point as I have finally been apart of my first big launch event with 10 series intel and TRX40 from AMD. Absolutely in love with this hobby. Eat, sleep, shit, and breath this. Day in and day out. Those that have helped me get where I am at this point in my XOC career, I absolutely can not thank enough. So many willing to help if you are willing to put in the time and effort. Those that have said pricing and what not can be a deterant, whole heartedly agree. I started with a daily system and kind of worked my way up from there. Now I have over a dozen mobos, hundreds of CPUs, lots of memory, and more GPUs than I want to count at the moment. Some of it will be benched, some of it is for nostalgia sake. If you jump feet first into this hobby, you can and most likely will spend money like crazy. I could give a rough estimate of my 1 year expenses of hardware and LN2, but most would probably shit a brick. The knowledge that is shared between people is what makes this worth while. Yeah there are some tricks or tips that you want to keep to yourself, as it may give you a edge during a comp, but helping those that are new or struggling is worth it. It helped me a ton and I'll say it again, I can't thank those enough who have mentored me so far in my XOC career

Not sure if they all do that, as this is an absolute bitch to get down to fullpot. It has to be walked down in steps to get to fullpot, no crazy tricks/rsvd/etc

FIXED

This was ran at fullpot

Thanks ya'll!

I have a screen shot of 8Ghz with this chip, but unfortunately it wouldn't validate and now the chip is DEAD.

That a boy champ!

Aint it just a bitch when there are no clouds around to download from?

Next time I'm up your way, we are going to have to see if I can't find one of those

Great work!!! Keep it up

Ooooooooh getting it

Thank you. Have a couple more things I’m going to try, but I think the board is the limiting factor now.

Them unicorn chips!

9900KF instead of 9900KS?

Z390 Godlike instead of X570 yeah?

I bench for a few different reasons. Its a fantastic and fun hobby/community/sport that I've grown into. I enjoy seeing the big scores and seeing how I can compare to others from around the world doing and enjoying the same thing as me. I've been able to meet some fantastic people along the way and want to continue to build and gain friendships with people from around the world.

CPUs sold

I am new around here and have been getting to know a lot of you. I have had a few interactions with Leeg and they have all been pleasant. when I first started out and the subs would be wrong, he would take the time to tell a noobie what needed to be done to sub correctly. That meant the world to me as a brand new face. Im almost up to my first full year here and seeing the dedication and effort you put in has given me a ton of respect for the position you hold and you as a human being. You are a fucking legend!

Man this won't last long. Crazy price drop. Toooo bad I'm not ready for two pots on the sr2

I would rather not see the subs disappear, especially for the GB3 subs I put a ton of time, money, and effort into. If you want to cut points at the start of the next season and make it pointless going forward, I'm 100% fine with that. Just don't want to see mine and others hard work to reach the top be thrown away for naught.

.txt file here on my results usb

Hell we talk about this shit daily......I’m all about this.

Hell when do I get my chance? I've been chomping at the bit trying to find one of these and ya'll holding out on me passing around??????
