    XS Hacked

    Great to see it working again
  2. I would highly recommend increasing IMC clock (some boards call it CPU-NB or just NB). Raising IMC clock from 2000MHz to ~3000MHz increases scores in SuperPi and 3Dmark physics by 3-6% depending on your memory setting. The faster your memory, the more you get out of IMC clock. Here are some old screenshots I found comparing stock to 3GHz IMC I raised HT-Link in this test as well, but it didn't improve any scores IIRC.
  3. Finally, a system strong enough to play minesweeper in glorious 60fps. Nice result DJ

    XS Hacked

    I was really worried there, I hope you didn't loose anything. But why would anyone target a site like this? It just doesn't make sense to me, since tech people aren't usually those who use one password for everything, so even getting all the user data wouldn't do much good. Are forums just easy prey? Or is someone salty after being banned?
  5. I don't have one, but I'm curious, why this particular board? I heard a lot of complaints about X58 AsRock back then.
  6. It's happening! Great job You deserve a keg for that.
  7. Nice job! I remember using this desktop wallpaper about five years ago

    [EU] EVGA SR-2

    Great price, I'm surprised this isn't gone yet. Guess everyone spent their cash on 6950X...
  9. Will be interesting to see how this chip scales with cold. I guess we will have to wait for custom PCB to see its real potential.
  10. I'm unsure about E759, E762 and E770, but E760 and the black X58-SLI definitely need the mod. We had quite the drama in PCGHX when someone recommended a Xeon to someone with Evga SLI and it didn't work... the E760 I tested myself. Afaik some of the later PCB-revision run Westmere EP without mods as well. Asus and Gigabyte are the safest bet, never heard of problems with those.
  11. There was a huge pricedump for Gulftown in 2013-14 because all these $50 Xeon X5650 flooding the market could do the same speeds at ambient. But as prices for those went above $100, Gulftown climbed back towards 200...
