  1. Finally we know who is buying all the empty boxes on ebay! :D

     

     

    Or...is this cheating in unboxing?

    couldn't stop facepalming...professional reviewing gone wrong :P

  2. Been running on X04 BIOS for a couple weeks now and when poking at the voltage read points with my DMM, it's reporting almost 0.2+ over what is set in BIOS on some of the read points. These increase in read outs have been noticed on vDIMM and vCore. Anybody else noticing this or could it be a poor DMM?

     

    search for a 1.5V battery and/or 9V block and look what your DMM shows...

     

    Mine broke a while ago and showed crazy high values as well...

  3. Does it mean that it took me 11 second to submit my score?

     

    Feel happy - due to the fact others submitted multiple scores at a time, mine took at least 38 or 39s...and I am having a pretty good connection here.

     

    This is why I say no to result-hammering - only one try per person (I mean next time we all do 30 scores 30 seconds upfront and all have the same time?)...

     

    Makes no sense to me that we try "hacking" for the 6:00:00 - else I have a script next time to do the job...

  4. Wow can't believe it took 40 seconds for 496kb to be uploaded...so next time gonna hit submit at least 30 seconds earlier...wtf?!

     

    €: oh and btw - everybody should only have 1 shot...else everybody will upload 20 scores upfront to hope one hits the sweet spot (like we can see multiple submissions)....some details of this competition start buggin me...

  5. Lol that escalated quickly...server sucked...submitted exactly 8:00:00 German Time :/

     

    Yeah I think submitting some seconds earlier (what actually suckes!) and beeing lucky exactly hitting the lag-spot will do the trick.

     

    I hit submit-button exactly 8:00:00 and well...hit a bucket of sh1t...

     

    Way of submitting sucks....specially if submission page is accessible before.

    Should only be available the moment it starts so that at least everybody has to enter values first...

  6. Hey folks,

     

    it's been a while I've benched stuff but after a break of almost 2 years I am now slowly coming back to my old passion for overclocking.

     

    Having wasted way too much money in the past the GTX 970 for just around 320 Euro looked like a good deal to check out about GPU performance these days.

     

    I compared to a lot special editions of the past like GTX 580, 7970 and new 780 Ti.

    Let's skip all this "cooler, specs, fancyness" and go directly to performance in games and benchmarks - these are my final charts up to now:

    When it comes to power consumption this card is like a camel you've just feeded - it doesn't need anything for a while ^^

    Knowing that we can bypass the powerlimit very easy, is there some kind of Vmod we can try out?

     

    greetings to all
