    Are you ready for Sandy Bridge?

    No more beers for you then !!!

     

    I am missing your new sig :D Uh and yes I think the last one was bad yesterday :P

     

    Man all people around me getting Maximus IV Extreme - I wanna have this board too but it's rather expensive and I speculate z68 will be the better plattform in some time. it's like with h55 and p55 I think.

    SandyBridge with stackable qualities

    Hi there,

     

    here are the hwbot-exclusive performance tests of scalable SandyBridge tests:

    It bends, but it doesn't fa(i)ll!!!!!!!!!

     

    Up to 6 CPUs one over the other will destroy wprime very soon - oh and I found a board that can handle 2 CPUs (maybe more) easy:

    Keep stacking it!

    That what you call 'messing around', I call 'optimising' :D

     

    I always liked raw clocks more than optimizing - I always take my hats of when I see guys bringing awesome performance per clock but I don't have time for that mostly :( I know there is no excuse for my incompetence :D (uh I must sig that someday as well as albrecht mwhahaha)

    Hey H.O.T. and BenchTec: nice fight

    That would be a start. People would think before joining a team a bit longer.

     

    We just had the same situation when some guys came (they didn't had many points but that doesn't matter here) and left just few days later. It confused the team and it wasn't helpfull at all. we would have preferred thoose guys not to join the team at all.

     

    but how long is reasonable? 6 month? 12 month? I know some of the ongoing things lately have been planned longer so for some things it won't help at all but to prevent some short-timed jumpings it could help :)

    That would be a different type of team ranking. Not better per se.

    Instead of blaming the rules, I'd blame the users who are moving :P.

     

    I thought about that kinda ranking (as in e.g. F@H it is exactly that way) and somehow liked that idea. some "heavyweights" seem to have fun pushing any team up and down with their continues movings (have seen people changing for like 4 or 5 times during the last years).

     

    In the end yes, you can only blame the users for moves like that...

     

     

     

     

    ...but after all thoose years you should have remarked we are all having fun blaming you for everything going wrong in the world - the economical crysis, natural desasters, stupid politics, the war in the Iraq - it's all your fault JP! totlach.gif:D

     

    Oh and while I am on it saying nice things to you: hope you had a nice christmas with your family and all the best for 2011. Have a good start into the new year!! :cool:

    Now that's a proper use for rog connect, no need to walk outside if it crashes!

    That's absolutely glorious.

     

    yeah it was really nice sitting inside while the system had do freeze its ass of :D

     

    Just be careful with single-stages and cascades in low ambient situations. You can reduce the high-side pressure so much that you get very little massflow and horrible performance. Shouldn't be an issue around 0 Celsius but don't wheel your cascade outside in say.. -30 Celsius ambients :D

     

    yeah I was told so also by the guy I bought the stager from - it was ~0°C and that seemed to give me ~8°-10C better temp compared to inside. while temp was a bit falling (maybe -2 to -3°C) it didn't got me any better temps on the cooling.

     

    I tried a cedarmill with -16 ambient last monday

     

    got 6390MHz suicide

     

    heatpipe coolers didn't do a good job for me last year - under load they will extremly lack performance as whatever is used inside the pipes isn't designed for such low temps. It was better for me to use an old slk900 plain copper cooler without pipes.

    HAHA awesome man :D

     

    awesome work chris :D

     

    thanks guys! couldn't get anything noticable this time but awaiting some new hardware soon :D

     

    GTX 580 Overclocking Session

    Ambient Temp : -15°C

    Haha very nice setup! :cool: ..but sitting there must have been a pain :P

     

    Hopefully temps will go that low beginning of jan here when I have 2 weeks holiday.

    Hey guys,

     

    it's getting cold outside and I smell some benching fun outside and inside - this thread is not mainly about the huge numbers just about posting some pictures about winter benching systems :cool:

     

    I had a small session with 7900 GT and 480 GTX but was unluckily interrupted by snow. The 480 seemed to like it outside and I need to get some ShadyBitch + DICE asap to have some more fun soon :D

    Let's see your systems for long winter evenings :)

    Alternatively the suggestion that the best score gets 100% of the points and all other scores (of the team) in the same ranking contribute 10% of the points to the team total.

     

    sound ok. maybe it would make sense to reward the top5 of each hardwareclass with a bit more hardwarepoints then?
