If there is no crack I guess no.Will test again soon.

Me and FireKiller had a hard time when playing with our delidded 6600K because of the paste cracking in different temperatures between -140 and -160 depending on many things like pot mounting and paste dryness. The solution came with glueing back the HS to the cpu. We used a black adhesive from 3M made for bonding metal with rubber. We applied the adhesive on the HS and then after putting it back on the cpu,we reinstaled the cpu into the motherboard socket and locked it to make it firm. We left it dry(without use) for a day.Today was the first quick try and everything worked great.No sign of cracks till -180 (didn't try lower) and the cpu was performing great. Hope this helps others that have the same problem. I attach a photo of the adhesive we used.

You nailed it man!!!!

Thanks guys.

The main problem with OCP mods on recent AMD cards is (I believe) that the load balancing is messed up after mod so you might get fried mosfets.

Monster setup man!!Nice job.

I can't recall having such an issue on cascade(-100).

Well done man !!!

All I want to say is that if someone looks carefully at ALL scores,there is no way to say which score is bugged and which is not.

Also just to help you a little bit more with moderating....a bugged run is called a run that the score is random and can't be repeated.This and the other "bugged runs"including demac's run doesn't seem so random and are very relevent with the gpu clocks. http://hwbot.org/submission/2872608 http://hwbot.org/submission/2872094 Also have in mind that "bugged runs" happen only in one of the subtests of a benchmark.In the above scores you will see that all subtests have same boost. I don't know how you can call it(it's something new to hwbot and almost sure never seen before) but it's not a bugged run and only hwbot crew can take a dessision about those runs.

I don't see any sarcasm on FireKillerGR's post but with your attitude I will become sarcastic to you.Who are you and where did you came from and most important why could you be moderating a challenge like this. For your information he has uploaded a valid result http://hwbot.org/submission/2870790 just to help you with moderating.

Is windows 10 allowed for XTU?I thought not.

Is windows 10 allowed ?

Great job Roman.I also expirienced the Mhz drop when I used second rail of gpower on a GTX 260 for memory.Using an extra epower on the memory I got back the lost Mhz.

Well done mate!!

This sentence is just the description of the stage.The detailed rules are: Use 1 videocard(s). A verification screenshot is required. Please attach a picture of your overclocking rig. Must use official competition background: download GeForce GTX Titan X not allowed. and only those sentences can be considered as the rules of the stage. It is very clear to my eyes

Thank you Albrecht.

As we discussed on FB,the rules seem very clear:Use 1 videocard(s) instead of :Use 1 videocard core(s) in total, writen in GT740 stage.

Nice job for stock vrm.I couldn't reach more than 1750Mhz without epower.

Thats why I prefered a card with 1Gb of memory.My core was much worse than yours.Needed 1.85 for 2000Mhz.

Wow!! Impresive job man.How much voltage for 2000Mhz?

Well done mate!!!

Well done man!!!Ultimate hardware modding skills.

Great job mate.Congrats!!

Thanks mate.
