You can still send the cpu over if you can't get it to work :D

Do want

I always check with 4C 8T

Well maybe they didn't check every day before the event. Not that bad mistake.

wow strong card

Yes was a very good one for air. Max validation 6,0

Yes, especially because the IHS is soldered. At least on air. No clue about LN2.

and another crap one L313B856 max air 4,3 GHz. Can't even do 5 ghz at 1,45

About 300-310 € which is about 390 USD

Apart from Gaming-Rigs I'm pretty sure this is going to happen.

PJ please add this again. I also need it to keep track of my teams submissions and I can't go through all the benchmarks =)

Yes that's why I gave up buying 4670Ks. They were even worse than my 4770Ks haha. So far almost tested 20 Chips and the highest I got was 6,3 validated and ~6,0 benchstable. Ivy was a lot easier to bin.

Damn close. Will strike back

I actually expected these CPUs to reach better scores in wPrime but seems like the records from Gulftown will not be broken.

No 4930K available in Germany at normal distributors

Another big problem is that some vendors only give you support as long as you write a "good" review with an awesome award. How often did I read "please send the review to us before you publish it" and later "the review is not as we expected it. Can you please remove the lines xxxx or do not publish it". This happened with all different and big manufactureres. The consequence for me is that I do not trust most of the reviews if they are sponsored by the vendors. Whenever I read "thanks to vendor xx for providing the board" I know that the reviewer will most likely hightlight the positive aspects but will leave out the negative stuff. For sure there are also trustworthy reviewers out there but a big amount just publishes what the vendor wants to read.

haha ~about the same performance

Thanks No, it's still my other one. Didn't test yours yet.

Thx guys Albrecht you can never have enough cpu powa

I can't buy the batches. I have to randomly order at my distributor

Boom! Nice work there!

L313B996 is by far the worst batch ever. All maximum air stable 4,3 ghz and LN2 max validation 5,5 ghz Bought 8 of them -.- aint fun.

Have been looking for these cards for a while but can't find it anywhere. Need it for my collection

Looks like the same kit which we had from Corsair for the Computex Main OC event. If yes - that's my kit: CMY8GX3M2A2800C12R 2800 MHz 12-14-14-36 @ 1,65 V ver5.29

Did you use any pre-configurated OC-setting in the bios? Did you overclock yourself? Can you check the BCLK in CPU-Z?
