Gunslinger

It's working, but is scoring 10,000 points lower in '05 than XP is. I'm about ready to throw in the towel on it.

AHCI The rest at auto or whatever the setting is at "optimised defaults" I got it to work this morning, I had been using a TechNet OS image that included SP1, I tried the original MS retail disk this morning and it worked Both Z77 OC Formula and Asus MVE

It has to be possible, if you look at a the top scores for multi GPU they are all done in Vista. 2x Vista http://hwbot.org/submission/2326131_sf3d_3dmark05_2x_radeon_hd_7970_68040_marks http://hwbot.org/submission/2326236_team.au_3dmark05_2x_radeon_hd_7970_67265_marks http://hwbot.org/submission/2310880_kingpin_3dmark05_2x_geforce_gtx_580_65811_marks 4x Vista http://hwbot.org/submission/2328572_oclab.ru_3dmark05_2x_radeon_hd_5970_69427_marks http://hwbot.org/submission/2325751_extreme_3dmark05_2x_radeon_hd_5970_67842_marks http://hwbot.org/submission/2316993_viss_3dmark05_4x_radeon_hd_4870x2_66510_marks

Anyone else having BSOD issues trying to Vista up and running with Z77 ? I'm using a retail image, of which I've tried several. Usually make it to installing Video drivers and then it goes to hell quickly. Prior to that, routine stuff "stops responding" installers fail ect; Just seems very unstable from the start.

good luck

Newegg?

When did Massman acquire emotions?

technicalities...

I had a problem with '06 yesterday, you have to removed the "www" and it will work

Nothing wrong, I totally suck at 2D benching.

Vantage and 680's suck. Kind of a no man's land right now with hardware and the current benchmarks. For the event 7970's would suck due to black screen benching, 680's are really only good for '11 and '06 and even then only when paired with great CPU's.

They look like Kingston HyperX's to me. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104293 I'm pretty sure we used Kingston last year in the finals.

I'm sitting on 4x 680 Classifieds but am feeling pretty unmotivated to bench them at the moment.

Didn't notice that until now.

Same thing for '01 single card rankings.

Pretty sure that both Hazzan and Andre both showed 6.9-7GHz 3770K screens long, long before this "event" ever happened. This was a group event, so the fact that they each used the best available memory and motherboards shouldn't be a suprise.

This one is for SoF :celebration: 3770K : Batch # 3218B968 Air: 5GHz spi 1M 4C/8T at 1.35V LN2: no cb, no cbb, max 6.2GHz spi 1M at 1.85V :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

Doesn't black screen benching violate the spirit of this rule?

So any update on this epic saga ?

I play alot of BF3 as Gunslinger_PURE

Which pretty much points to it being a bugged run.

It's not top 20 global, therefore does not require a validation link.

That's how I roll.

Just got an email today, stock now pushed out until 7/24/12. At this rate I'll get the other 3 RMA'd about the same time as the next architecture release...

US Intel RMA warehouse in Louisville is out of stock for replacement 3770K's until 7/19.
