March 25, 20179 yr You let the cat out of the bag way too early. Not my fault Scotty. The pizza boy knocked the door and when i opened , that little kitten got away.
March 25, 20179 yr This is really disappointing for those of us who don't have dual socket boards. I think the comp rules should be per CPU - I guess they didn't think of the existence of Dual Socket A boards.
March 25, 20179 yr Lol. Good luck in rest of comp my friend. Thank you Scotty Good luck to you too. To tell you the truth , i dont like the board i got. It's a rev 1.04 but with the old defect B1 chipset. It maxxes out at 148 , so i'll have to unlock the cpus's multi (but i need a new pair of eyes for this). TASOS`s Cinebench - 2003 score: 544 points with a Athlon MP 2600+ (Thoroughbred) There's also too much voltage difference between cpu0 & cpu1. Measured with multimeter. Maybe i'll try a couple of bios ... but i'm almost certain it's a hardware issue.
March 25, 20179 yr Author My board can do more than 148, but I have a huge difference in voltages between processors also. Still, it benches better than my K7D Master L. We'll see what happens.

Everybody had input on this comp beforehand, yet there have been complaints every round. Comp organizers just can't win here, that's whats disappointing.

Yeah, I didn't see any of the pre-comp discussion and I didn't have it in my mind to go dual socket. I suppose if I had A dual Socket Board I would have thought about it!
