On the ES matter, I do not care, I said what I wanted to say a while ago, so if ES is not ruled out I will moderate it this way. It is safe to say that lots of people had no access to this, but you cannot have it all. On your other remarks, if you feel uncomfortable at xoc, do what lots of others did as well, disable subzero subs (delete or make pointless) and return to EL. The PSC argument is a joke because tons of these were sold all over the world as retails, you can´t blame others that you started oc after sales of these at shops ended, second hand market is big btw, and if I follow this I might complain as well that I had no chance to buy brand new retail FPM to compete at old school comp because they were sold around 2000 - for someone who has 1368 capable kit like you it is no go argument anyway, I cannot remeber I asked you when you started oc when I sold it to you^^

I made my opinion clear on competition rules for this contest long before, officially and internally, I do not approve these and stated also protest which was in fact useless. I am happy that Gigabyte gave good chance to benchers to compete in nice comp anyway. To be sure about the es board issue, I made another request as said On es cpus, there are cpus especially binned for imc for example, so this matters as well... P.S. Just for the record so that you can see someone did care http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?t=139888

@nvidiaforever2 Kit 4 is a bit better on voltage, but if you want to run 8-12-8 for benches on air, kit 3 is better choice for you because it also boot 2667 8-12-8 and ran 1m or Aquamark for example for me. You got PM. @Strat no problem @noxinite Don´t contemplate it too long Edit #3 sold

Sure it is limited edition and use is not fair because it is no normal retail board and gives higher result bc of short traces at rtls, it cannot even be used for normal build, but ES is not ruled out by Competition rules. I asked Christian to check this with Gigabyte, but the rules of this contest were not good at all anyway so I am pretty sure you will have no chance if you report.

It did enter, I had to remove it from competition, I would propose you rebench - xtu shows no frequency, monitoring shows 4,1ghz on top, use latest xtu-version, if the problem remains change to english for language if not done now or try fresh install on OS. I can by no means accept this result as it is submitted now, it will go again at final check for sure, sorry, I have no choice

3236C 3770K 5ghz 32m xp air 31° ambient 1,27v m5E, 2933 mem boots and enters win, non delidded ok for firefox use

windows only - made last check before comp ends, results removed and blocked, please read rules again (general for geekbench) and also include background and cpuz mainboard tab when you rebench

Last check before comp ends, I was generous on hwinfo but had to remove or block lots of results even then - please check rules again and rebench if it hit you

Fixed, no idea what happened

Not bad for a dead cpu

Not really, I made fast run at 2600c8-12-8 but this needed nearly 1,9v and I have very few time and low motivation at the moment

Hi, up for sale are five PSC-based memory kits, all work flawless, for further information please read the item descriptions 1. 3x2GB OCZ Platinum DDR3-200 Cl8-9-8 1,65v Very good condition, no big tests apart from specs, seem to be average clockers that did 2400 7-11-7-28 on my old 1155 rig around, iirc they needed around 1,75-1,8v for this, lately used for 24/7 rig 2. 2x2GB GSkill Flare DDR3-2000 CL9-9-9-24 1,65v Like all items offered tested with memtest and found to work without issues, tested a while ago for 2400 7-11-7-28 on ivy Bridge around 1,71v 3. 2x2GB GSkill Ripjaws DDR3-1600 CL7-8-7-24 1,60v X-PSC based kit, tested a while ago on Ivy 2400 7-11-7-28 1,65v, on Haswell 2600 8-12-8-28 tight around 1,8v, 2667 tight worked as well with trcd 13 at around 1,85v [B]4. 2x2GB GSkill Ripjaws DDR3-1600 CL7-8-7-24 1,60v[/b] Same production date like #3, tested on ivy for 2400 7-11-9-28 1,58v, on Haswell 2667 tight subs 8-13-10-28 1,80v and below. 5. 2x2GB Exceleram VX DDR3-2000 CL7-10-9-24 1,65v Working, very uneven, tested on ivy single 2400 8-11-8-28 1,65v and 8-12-9-28 1,7v. IIirc, I did 2600 c8 tight long ago with these, but don?t remember exactly timings and volts Prices: 1. 45 Euros+shipping 2. 40 Euros+shipping 3. 60 Euros+shipping sold to nvidiaforever2 4. not available anymore 5. 40 Euros+shipping Items are located at germany, shipping will be around 6-8 euros normally, this depends on location and weight, I will search for best possible option.

In fact the 2000c8 and the 2133 c9 looked the same, no red or black version My 2000c8, the 2133c8 and 2200c8 had Hyper, two of my 2133c9 kits had bbse most likely and on third one I found BBBG. If you want mems that can do 1600 (800) 6-6-6, you will have to opt for Hypers, BBSE usually fail this due to lower trcd limit (will do 6-7-6)while lots of hypers do 1800 6-6-6 if they are decent. Chips can vary at GSkill, I also had Trident 2000c9 kit (late sample from blowout sale of rma stock by gskill most likely) that had below average Hypers, there were also few single sided samples with bcse, but normally these had PSC or BBSE, it is most safe to assume this if you make blind purchase without having chance to check sn

Excellent run

Pre-check done, validations without screenshot accepted for fpm stage. I rely on contestants to be fair on this hard to judge stage

Yes, you can open hwmonitor after the run. It makes no sense to run it parallel when temp max is refering to load temps. I wonder why some people use hwinfo - rules say hwmonitor clearly, so this might result in subs being removed

I left you a comment at the result, it looks bugged for me, final decision I leave to head of moderation. Please be sure you have a second valid score in case this one gets blocked, we see a lot of bugged xtu runs lately unfortunately

Result matches 4400 MHz score, so I am really not sure what to think about this^^

After checking similar comp lately I agree on these subs being valid, so you can do same. Especially because these are low clock results, and rules are load temp bound

removed from comp, cache above core not allowed and mainboard tab missing - please rebench

Nice article, thanks for sharing - I am a bit sad about fact I had to remove jabs results, he benched good, I would have preferred it to be different...

Pieter fixed it, results now should show final result after check, at least top 5 are OK - on temps, it was decided to go with load temp, so idle below 20 degrees but still on plus value was not removed from competition. Great work, guys, a lot of good benching

@Trodas Trident 2gb are eol long time now, you can look at ebay or second hand market, 2000c9 or 1600 6-7-6 triple kits, the first ones you can identify on serialnumber linked earlier here at thread and 1600 6-7-6 are always bbse

It is common knowledge that you have to show cpuz cpu,memory and mainboard tab when a competition is restricted to certain brand and mainboard series. And yes, "hwbot staff" under my nick says I am a moderator. As stated before you could have contacted Christian Ney, you obviously did not do, and of 150 submissions for this contest you are only one! who did not include cpuz mainboard tab despite rules. You even got a personal heads up two weeks before competition ended and uploaded later results without cpuz mainboard tab again I guess there is no need to discuss this anymore
