Did you say chilled/cold because you opened the window. If so, like your integrity man. Others should follow.

Sorry man, but rules is the thread state HWMonitor must be open during the run. Can tell by yours it wasn’t.

That temp!!!! Hot down your way still or not delidded?

That’s a clean setup dude. Like the rad support you’ve made to extend the OBT.

I was being sarcastic, Happy Birthday

Rig pic also incorrect. Remove this and all of NATA58's scores please

Welcome to the world of "enthusiast" cooling. Move him to Apprentice already.

I thought this was ambient Comp. why on SS?

Constructive criticism here (I don't mean to make your life any harder Alby), Is it possible to show all of the rules on the competition page? Trolling through the forum to find what is OK and isn't is hard enough for the veterans here sometimes, for newcomers, they would have no idea what is going on. This might help those that have no clue gain a bit of a clue before running and failing to submit. Looking forward to having a bit of a crack at one of the rounds, not sure which one yet.

APEX LLC5 (so droop on load), thick radiator, cooler winter air (15-18ish ambient) and push pull. Its a good CPU, still have here and hardly run since.

None

on Elmor's bios, no, turboV doesnt work for multiplier changes. I didn't try XTU

Reporting for not showing rig pic to confirm cooling :p

One division per user?? This was a thing. I did Div 1, 4 and 7 last year. I know only points counted for one but I don't care. It's fun doing them all.

Has great CPU, Great SS, Great Memory, runs junk profile.

Says only use AMD processors. You tolololololing

Not sure you are aware, but: (a) rare as fuck (b) high possibility that the chips cannot do 4.5g on ambient temps so zero care given haswell/DC are the only real chips for this. Agree withnt countryman, why not have open cooling on RAM, ambient on cpu is fine, could make it interesting

I think the simple response as a tweak is the topography on the Crosshair hurts it’s speed. Possibly need to use Gigabyte or Asrock for the boost. Without those boards though, it’s hard to tell, plus they both have cold issues as far as I know.

I like the concept. I like the ban hammer I like the moderators i like benching fixed clock

That looks like you have too low maxmemm to me. 600 is too low. When I run below 900mb I have very bad performance as it runs out of memory. Try 1000-1200 and see if the problem goes.

If you don’t set affinity then your score will be rubbish. You need to sort a Waza out or you are wasting time too. The score can vary a fair bit without it and I even noticed up to a 1 second variance using differnt cores too. Ive got other platforms on the bench at the moment prepping for a review so I can’t do a 4ghz just yet for you to compare.

Yes. Happens to me too. Lose a few seconds in efficiency. I know why. You will work it out pretty quick.

I still have my board and chip. Board isn’t the best clocking though

Sorry. Yes. 8m times

Don’t worry. It’s a board related issue that holds back efficiency I believe. Yet to test for myself. The fast guys efficiency guys are running on Gigabyte and Asrock. Asrock lacks in memory, and Gigabyte lacks in cold volts causing CB issues. It’s eother just the memory setup on the Crosshairs, otherwise they know something we don’t and neither of them will share. Do a run at 4.2g. I was 4m14 to 4m17s without Waza. I never tested at 4g, takes too long and I don’t have time for that. Best luck woth with your sub 6m. With your cpu I know I’d be there by now.
