but if you do that you limit people experimenting and trying to get a better score which after all is what this is all about. Trying new things to get a better score if we stop people from doing this why bench at all?
you might as well have all in one group and allow bonus points for people that show they are benching with a harder method.. if they dont its standard score no bonus
aka room temp where room temp is in a fair range of temps
sub ambient where there is a slight change
and sub zero when things are really getting closer to dice temps.
i have ideas but sadly no solutions but we have plenty of smart people here..
its a lot harder for people to bench sub ambient where you have to watch out for condensation and probably insulate your board.. maybe thats it .. if you have to use conformal due to temps or insulate the board possibly that could be a cutting off point because if someone is willing to loose a board to bench they deserve to get the extra points.
please remember before flaming that im just throwing out ideas.
I do think that George has a good idea but we need to be sure that there is intended fraud before we ban someone ... not just a witch hunt.
Btw * Who is making the popcorn ?* ( insert popcorn gif here )
in the water cooling categories how cold water cooler has to be before extreme .. my tap water is close to chiller temp .. 5c so how can that be extreme. unless others have super cold water from chillers .. i would like to hear from others with chillers what water temp at idle. and at full bench .
However i think that its a great start .. and the idea of a points based hierarchy is an interesting one. You put a lot of thought into this ..
pm sent on gpu pot and mem pots
dumo please disregard message .. with changes on hwbot i figured i would need to use sub zero to compete but i have decided against it . thanks and good luck
sorry i wont be able to get the money till the third as i had indicated. hate to let these go but it is what it is. Good luck with the sale and thanks for trying.

im interested in all of the ln2 pots amd cpu, intel cpu, the two memory pots, and the gpu pot. sending pm to see if we can work things out.. price is fine. actually its very very good.
it is always easier to say "I could have done that" when you have seen how it is done.
It is easy to see the genius in the design.
Would i like to make one myself? Of course. But lacking the skills, tools, and vision.. i would buy one in a heartbeat if it was in the states.
