G.Skill World Cup Online Qualifier 2026 (15/02 till 23/03 2026)
I have both platforms and RAM, but unfortunaltey lacking the CPUs, LN2 and time this year. Plus PTSD from my CPU IMC cold issues on 14th gen last year, I can't do it to myself again. If it was one platform plus one CPU (245k/265k), I would almost pull myself out of the corner for another try.

Hardware sharing question
You should start a different post on this for discussion to keep the thread about the topic. (I agree BTW)

Cmaker caught cheating changes his name to infomaxparis to please msi his hopeful sponsor
I think Exaberries covered the point very nicely. The issue I see here though is pure transparency. Not saying in any way that Alby/Salty have done a bad job, and I for one appreciate what they do voluntarily and the shit they would have to deal with on the daily here. But, when you have someone that is near or think was at the top of the ladder that has been blocked for something they knew wasn't right, it should be made known. Not because "how dare they" or "they are cheats" but because it can help educate the community and let them know that HWBot has integrity and those participating should too. In the past, I personally had emailed our mods about some subs I suspected were cheated and they handled/deleted them at the time without too much fuss. I assumed in the background a warning was sent to the perpitrator. Remember the saying, Silence breeds contempt? When you say nothing, gossip thrives in the background, disrespect grows, resentment builds and the mobs come out in anger wanting a public execution. In the dark ages (as someone put to me), when someone stole/did something against their community there would be public notification or public punishment as a way of letting the people of the community know that this type of action wasnt acceptable in the community and if you do it there is concequences for it. It wasnt just because the people were thirsty for blood or the executioners enjoyed cleaning up the shit afterward, it was because keeping order and harmony in the community was priority for the safety and enjoynment in the community, otherwise chaos reigned and well, bad shit happens. Anyway, I've lost my train of thought here, but what I am trying to say is, we have times where there is a minority of people that do what we see as the wrong thing here, nothing gets said as things happen in the background, little whispers start happening and no-one has provided the community with the answers or what will be happening moving forward. A little clarity right now will appease the masses and an announcement on the main page as an education will clear most of this up I am sure.

Not really mate, just need the wind blowing in the right direction under the correct moon and tidal phase. If the tide changed, nothing worked, if the wind went from SE to SSSE, nothing worked. Unfortunately we cant all have a freak CPU like CENS has. Would be great if we could. Very weird CPU's to run cold, one minute everything works, next minute just weird shit. I'm sure someone will get it all worked out after a few thousand more litres of LN2 being poured lol. Most testing could get between -170 and -185 with better mem though. 14th gen will be the best bench platform for a while I think. Why did intel have to make everything complicated when it was working so great before (for us benchers).

Use the retail bios if you want the latest update. No need for microcode to be upgraded on a xoc bios for no performance gain.

Mr. Scott, the whole website is mobile now, must mean reporting doesn't work full stop. Lets keep the report button disabled until Feb, well after CC concludes to give Alby a break.
