  1. Thanks to everyone! Also a big thanks to @Splave for always cheering up and encouraging me for this contest! A big congrats to everyone that qualified and took part in the live final, as you could see this contest is extremely harsh and a big challenge! Also to the other finalist, @Dancop and @Lucky_n00b , amazing performance and you guys are benching machines that gave me a huge headache! To be honest i think i had a very fortunate day when everything went very smooth and karma worked in my favor! See you guys next year and thanks to G.skill staff and judges that ensured everything went good and contest took place in first place! 

     

    Cheers!

  2. Np, kit is payed and will be shipped today

    And yes, dumo is right, slight cold only on mems. A decent imc 8700k or 9900k can do 4300 c12 geek on ambient without problems, i did 4400 c12 with Kingston's b-die  with cpu on water...

    i consider normal ambient 25 degrees CELSIUS.

  3. Up for sale the better modules i received in Galax Goc 2017 Final.

    Kit can do 4220-4240 12-11-11 Geekbench on Rampage VI/ Apex with a little bit of cold, with normal ambient they do 4200 12-11-11 geek on Apex Xi as tested below. 4133 12-11 wazza is no problem as well.

    Looking for 300E shipped, payment via paypal or bank account.

  4. If i were you i would glue the cpu back and try some intel rma. The seller made it clear he couldn't give 2 cents about you or your troubles, he knows he won't get anything from mail company and he couldn't care less.   

    Getting away with stupid excuses like he had a lot of work, that's bs with capital letters, you work too much to not give away 5 minutes per day to try and solve a big issue for someone that shares the same hobby as you do and it is also your fault in first case? 

    But, again, this is hwbot marketplace and scammers can get away, there were worser cases on the road....

  5. Hello,

     

    Up for sale are 3 8700K's  i found from a few dozen pieces i binned lately. Binning was done on water and for those 3 pieces i delidded them and replaced stock grease with liquid metal Conductonaut. Room temperature was 24-25 degrees with a good water cooling, obviously not as strong as a hailea chiller some guys use but my results are always comparable to other wc solutions or AIO. Motherboard used was Asus Maximus XI gene with llc6. I would also like to add that the voltage i mention is the one that i set in bios or turbovcore, the one that cpu-z shows is lower, for example 5500@1.34V set in bios resulted in a load cpu0-z voltage of 1.296...

     

    1., Nr.1 Best one i found and also best one i had ever on water. 

    Does cinebenchR15 5400@ 1.28, 5500@ 1.34, 5600/5300 cache @ 1.44V. , 5400 cache also worked but did not screened it

    Beside the amazing core this cpu has a killer imc, it can train and boot 5000 in Dual-Channel! and also train and boot 5200 divider in single channel.

    2. Nr.2 Vietnam batch, really solid and it actually also did 5600 three quarters of run at 1.49 however temps went over 80 and it crashed. 

    Does cinebench R15 @ 5400@1.31, 5500/5300@ 1.38V

    Strong imc as well, can train and boot 5100 divider on water single channel. 

    snaphsot0017odjc7.png

     

    snaphsot0018vek37.png

     

     

    3.Nr3 Solid cpu as well,  pretty close to nr 2 but 5600 would not go, might be because one core is hotter than the others and i have to reapply conductonaut better, who knows.

     

    Does cinebench r15@ 5400@ 1.33, 5500@1.40v

     

    Strong imc that will train and boot 5100 divider on water single channel.

    Prices are

    1. 700E

    2. 500e

    3. 450E

     

    Prices include shipping in Europe and i can shipp till 23 may, later i will be in Taipei for 2 weeks so if you decide in this period your cpu will be shipped on 7th of June.

     

    Payment via paypal or bank transfer ( would actually prefer Revolut).

  6. I don't know what Luumi smoked but i have yet to see a difference between few different pots regarding maximum mhz on 4-6-8 core, not even to speak of 7350K which is dual core. Direct die gains make sense, you are removing one layer of thermal resistance between die and pot base, no surprise.. Sure, move to 10+ core and the gains can be seen, control is way better, easier benching life. However i would bet a hefty amount of money that if we could run 28-core at full-pot let's say, the pot with biggest mass will not win, rather than a mix of decent mass but LOTS of contact surface with ln2.

    Looking very carefully at the pictures, I have to say something that attracted my attention.

    For Heaven's sake people, please do not think that I am taking sides here. Just trying to be as objective as possible.

    The packing is as good as it can get. No one that wants to be objective can doubt it. I have received a couple of processors from other sellers, with a lot worse packing and

    they arrived alive and well.

    As Mr.Scott said, there is no way that the cpu might have been damaged during transportation.

    These pictures, so honestly taken by the buyer and explained, can't substantiate any claim from the transportation company.

    Cpu was damaged either prior to shipping or after receipt.

     

    Nope, worst packaging for a cpu, period.

     

    First of all if you only send a cpu without cooler or mobo or whatever you can send it as document. you take three bubble wrap envelopes, you seal the cpu in the plastic cover, put it in bubbled envelope three times, shipp it. It will travel as an envelope with other envelopes, so no bix boxes around or other things to be afraid of. 

  8. Up for sale another binned cpu.

    Quick pretesting on water showed 5300 R15 @ 1.30-1 on Maximus XI Apex with regular water cooling, cool cpu barely reaching 75.

    Ln2 showed 6870 with very quick pretesting, 6900 crashed halfway so with little tweaking and lucky run it can be achieved. Not screened but did 7430 validation and a 7370 pifast.

     

    Price is 600E shipped in EU.

     

    Payment via paypal or bank transfer ( preffered ! )

  9. I am sorry to ruin the fun for you, BUT, when you receive an ITEM, you TEST IT, no mods , no 8700K on z170, nothing unorthodox, you test it at stock and then you test to see if it meets whatever was advertised. 

    If i would sell you a 8700K which i knew it is good and tested before shipping to you, properly packed, and first thing you do is mod and put on z170 then complain it doesn't work, i would send you to sing to other table. There are many things that can go wrong even when everything is official, remember this, if shit can happen, it will happen sooner or later.

     

    In your case, well, if you saw that there is a scratch then this was a very big question mark, should notify the seller right away even before testing. However his answer and the way the handles things looks shady, sorry for your loss... Shipping is tricky, and the delivery companies are well known for playing football with the packages, it is the seller responsability to pack it bulletproof so it arrives in good shape to the buyer. If damages occur the shipper should refund the buyer and then deal with the shipping company. Quite simple....
