Discuss: Adding benchmarks in Rev4
You are right; when we enable points for certain benchmarks there's a more obvious focus on those benchmarks. I think that limiting the amount of benchmarks that receive global points and thus making the choice to give a benchmark more focus will give those who are aiming for the top ranks maybe a bit more time to really push the system in specific benchmarks. I have the feeling we're close to the saturation point where there are too much benchmarks to focus on; adding 10 more could make everything unbalanced.

P67/Z68 BIOS collection
Hm, if I remember correctly I was able to run 2133, but not CL=6. Anyways, here's the new bios for both GD55 and GD65: http://91.121.148.119/downloads/BIOS/E7681IMS.186

Yes, it's allowed. Only limitation is: socket of CPU cannot be LGA775.

Discuss: Adding benchmarks in Rev4
Same like it's decided now. New benchmark -> no points - quality and security control - community likes it? If both ok => hardware points If turns out it's highly popular and solid => global?

Discuss: Adding benchmarks in Rev4
Hey all, In Rev4, we will split up the HWBOT benchmark suite in three parts: 'global', 'hardware' and 'beta'. - global = global and hardware points - hardware = only hardware points - beta = no points The idea here is that we will limit the amount of benchmarks you need to run to get a high ranking in the Overclockers League. Diversity is good, but if we add another 10 benchmarks, the ranking will more and more become function of the amount of available time. Therefore, a selection of 10/15 benchmarks (~ like now) will be used for global points. The more benchmarks, the better. Especially when benching for the team, it's nice to have as much benchmarks as possible to grab hardware points. So, we have a 'new' category of benchmarks that only generate hardware points. Over time, it's possible that a highly popular and decent benchmark moves to the global category. The idea here is, for instance, to give global points to 3DMark Vantage Performance and add entry, high and extreme as hardware points. The beta section is to test new benchmarks. If possible, we would like to add some kind of GUI for overclockers to add a new benchmark. That probably won't make it in the first edition of Rev4, but just wanted to throw it into the group. Thoughts, comments, suggestions, ideas ... shoot!

Cold testing?
I had 53x working on the UD4, IIRC. It just depends on the CPU, I think. Not so much on the board.

Sandy Bridge 2500K/2600K Batch and Serial Numbers
So far it looks like you'd better stay clear of all the #00xx chips. None of the low numbers hit any high speeds :-/ Number on the black PCB ~ 3600?

It's also pretty retarded to find out it's Wprime1024M stable at -15°C, but not screenshot stable ...

Why? ASUS/Intel promise 6GHz

P67/Z68 BIOS collection
As far as I've heard, it has improved the memory compatibility. I quickly tested V1.7B4 and that bios had really laggy EFI bios. With the 1.8b5 I don't have that. Try it and report your findings Nah, that's Intel's great Sandy Bridge technology Thanks, added!

Cold testing?
Anyone tested Sandy with LN2 already? I'm just running a couple of tests now and it strikes me that around -50°C I get the same AE error as I get when I clock to high on air. So: 5400 on air -> stable. 5500 on air -> AE 5400 on ln2: -50°C and lower -> AE -46°C -> show OS list, but freeze while loading -40°C -> load into windows Anyone else found this?

Iubitel - on itself it doesn't say much, but within a specific FPO/batch it's a good idea to get a CPU close to the golden #
