  1. Thank you Elmor! Now to work out which part of the card needs de-soldering
  2. Got any pics of the damage bud?
  3. Any scope on how much postage might cost to the UK?
  4. Am I right in thinking this card is custom PCB?
  5. What's the overclocking potential like on either card? I'm interested for a test bench set up I'm building
  6. Bump!
  7. It isn't going to be released though? By definition, unreleased would imply it is going to be released in the future, but we know from Gigabyte that it's not. Not to sound butthurt here (I'm not), but from what I see, it's only AUS members who have this board...so let's say it is the best board and yields the most points on a per submission basis. In the HWBot Country cup, am I right in assuming that this would give team AUS a distinct advantage? Correct me if I'm wrong etc!
  8. Any subs with this board should not count towards the ranking whatsoever, unless it's being sold retail; even if they only sell 10, 50 or 100, it would make this board retail. If the group buy goes through, then sure, but until then...it's bull
  9. You have to go through me first Don't encourage him haha
  10. How much has the chip been on XTU? How much inc shipping to UK?
  11. Is it this chip? Nik`s Cinebench - R15 score: 570 cb with a Core i3 6320 ????
  12. On that i3, what am I looking at roughly under LN2?
  13. Just checked and the PCB is reference ill have to pass I'm afraid If you price drop it though, let me know because the block makes it ideal, the lack of OC information makes it not so
  14. Best price on the GTX 480 shipped to the UK?
  15. ES stuff should be banned from rankings on the premise that it's stuff that the regular overclocker/general user cannot get their hands on. Yes it's good for company PR (I know this), but getting world records on hardware that isn't even retail means what exactly? Nothing! I agree with you Michael in some respects, but as long as HWBot is funded and sponsored by the top companies, it isn't going to happen. It's the vacuum you get sucked into when you take on sponsors, take on advertisers, take on support etc. The moment you defy the sponsor, you lose their support and some just aren't willing to do that - That goes throughout the industry itself including other business models. That being said, I don't think that's HWBots fault at the end of the day, but there certainly needs to be a distinguishing factor between those using ES samples/cherry picked samples provided by companies for PR and the regular retail hardware; no-one can fairly compete unless you have a huge bank account to compensate it. Also sandbagging is dirty as they come; I think you should always submit the best score you have to keep things competitive. Nothing worse than breaking a record to find out 10 minutes later you have been sandbagged from 3 months ago...(have seen other people go through that and it's near heart breaking for them) So what's HWBot going to do here Michael, or what do you expect them to do? They won't piss off sponsors and they certainly won't change things that could "hurt" the top ranked guys...Why would they?
  16. Wait...am I right in thinking if I order this to the UK I am going to get hammered with customs fees?
  17. Still want one of these...baaaah hate life and money
  18. Also I have another favour Sorry to be a pain Obviously PJP/MDD know I own Play3r.net (http://hwbot.org/team/play3r.net/) I re-joined the team, but cannot remember the team account details, can you give me back leadership? SOWWY
  19. So I turned my points off for a week, turned them back on...been recalcing for about 3-4 days, but I have half the points I had. What's up?
