Posted June 5, 20178 yr Well i have been nominated to do this, so i guess i am going to organised this. There will be a bench meet on 12-13th August and probably a day either side to set up or pack up if required. It will be in Liverpool at Play3r HQ You will need to bring some things. Mouse Key board Monitor Benching table/box. There will be 120L of fresh LN2. If you are a person who would like to come please express interest below in this thread. There will be parking for cars. There are hotels in the area. This is during the team cup so its a great time to meet some people who be able to help you make your scores better for your team. People who will be there confirmed: Jumper118 Gavbon Bakerman1971 No1Spank Dragon soop Maybe : Matt Lee No shows: Chicken head Noxinite Edited August 9, 20177 yr by Jumper118
June 17, 20177 yr I could maybe make 12th/13th but I'm kinda lukewarm on it so don't schedule it on my account.
June 17, 20177 yr Interested, either weekend should work for me, but I'd prefer the 2nd weekend in August.
August 1, 20177 yr Hey chaps, I shall be attending, mostly in a viewing/learning capacity, I will bring my POT for Gavbon along with my OBT some peripherals and a Laptop, should be fun
August 4, 20177 yr I'm interested, I don't have a pot and would be interested in buying one if anyone has one for sale there. I can bring a couple of old mobo's and CPU's to practice on as I don't know anyone in person that has used dry ice or LN2 although I have a bit of an idea how to prepare a board I'm paranoid about messing one up with a novice mistake. Should be able to confirm early next week if it is going to be held on 12th & 13th.

August 7, 20177 yr I'm bang up for the weekend now, I've never seen anyone else overclock a rig let alone do extreme cooling before. What sort of time do I need to be there? Have you got a post code for the venue? How much money do I need to get in and pay for dry ice etc? Thanks

August 18, 20177 yr Author Looks like lots of benching fun! indeed it was. you would be able to maybe come over to one sometime, but the next one is country cup so you cant come to that one
August 19, 20177 yr indeed it was. you would be able to maybe come over to one sometime, but the next one is country cup so you cant come to that one I'll attend when Nox attends
August 21, 20177 yr The APU thing was an E-350. It did actually clock higher from pouring LN2 onto the heatsink, and the system stayed alive despite getting ln2 all over the board and water all over the place so I guess gigabyte weren't kidding about the 'ultra durable' label Didn't save any scores as it was just messing around.

OK, I could not remember what it was I will correct that now.
August 25, 20177 yr You got some nice pics of my Sabretooth 990FX, the LN2 didn't hurt it or the FX 6300 which was still clocking as well as ever the other night when I was doing some Fallout 4 testing. It just beats a quad core Ryzen 3 (oc'd to 3.95ghz with 2933mhz mem) on that game. Still my favourite CPU & board combo. Was a great weekend, thanks a lot..
