    5500 1.39 as i understand, take on air cooling, no ALO or water? So, on water this chip maybe can much better result?

    Pretty sure when he says "Cpu is the best i had on air," he means ambient testing. So could be an AIO, custom loop or Air cooler, but I doubt it. CPU is crazy good so it hardly matters

    I keep trying to order but no matter how I check out and no matter which browser I use after the card is processed I am returned to the checkout page where it says I need to properly complete the captcha - which of course - I've already done. Anyone else have this problem?

    I heard someone during Steponz' 002 stream mention that there order went through using EDGE,  only after trying all normal web browers

  3. It was very hard to find a good cpu around launch when these ln2 binned cpu's from Roman appeared. That same cpu was bench stable at 5.0 @ 1.340 / 5.2 @ 1.465v non avx

    I did a quick run on my daily setup 1.32 is what the CPU needs for this run:

     

    Thats pretty good actually, this cpu was originally €1000

    I rename bios in 7zip to creative.rom but no go. Last bios i flashed in MB is 0094 all other I can not flash from some reason.

    What bios are you trying to flash, post a link or pm me and I'll get it working for you. As for renaming in 7zip I'm not sure what you mean. All you have to do is if bios file is compressed is Right click with mouse go to Extract All and literally rename the file by clicking on it till blue ( or right click select "rename" ), the file extension will not be selected so go ahead and select the entire file and like Phobosq said  rename to Creative .ROM or M9A.CAP

    " official M9A bios - M9A.CAP
    modded M9A/M10A bios - creative.rom"

    Do both hardware mods need to be done to flash a modified BIOS via flashback? I tried pencil and a small screw driver to short the pins near the BIOS chip, and I may have had them soldered at one time, but flashback would not work. I didn't mod the other part of the board. I'm using a 7700k.

    99% certain you only need the bios pad short mod, rename the bios Creative.ROM, and use the correct bios flashback usb port.  What usb stick you use is important too. All my Adata sticks work for bios flashback or bootable usb purposes but my Sandisk's do not work for this

    so much people has and uses that board nowadays so this was a really important update,thanks.

    Thanks,  I just try to learn as much as I can about this stuff since it seems to be disappearing every time another XOC'er quits due to lack of time, family, health, frustration with the platform or general lack of respect by those too naive to realize the importance of knowledge.
    Definitely something that  any semi-advanced overclocker can do if you can find the time and dedication to do so
    I encourage everyone to spend at least 10% of their OC time to learn about things they feel has a lack of easy to find documentation.
    It's amazing just how much there is to learn when you run into a problem without a simple answer

    Was able to access the bios chip via the motherboard SPI header port and using a jumper through my Flashcat USB programmer. Worked like a charm reading the flash.

    So now want to try Dsanke's 1901 but was wondering will it be compatible with a 9700K cpu? Also will my old 6700K cpu work as well until I get my 9700K ready?

     

    Thanks

    Sure looks like it will as long as the 6700K is not an engineering sample. I hope to test it out soon myself but only have Kaby 7600k to see if it supports pre Coffee sku's

  9. Finding a quality phase change unit in the US is not easy. The few builders you can trust are pretty much out of the game due to lack of time and in my experience while searching for myself and several others, no (realistic ie normal cost of SS +$500) amount of money can buy said time.
    That said, I did eventually find one myself used in good condition. So I wish you luck !
    Here's mine, charged for 325w load at -40C
