June 24, 20186 yr I'm just hoping that team cup get's announced in time for me to order any legacy stuff I don't have on hand. Having all my current boards working and things binned would just be a plus.
June 24, 20186 yr Author Yeah...that'd be awesome. Having the party during TC is excellent. Think it's usually announced by now?

June 24, 20186 yr Author My Apex IX is kinda dead Anyone who's coming have one? If at all possible, would really appreciate if someone could bring along some ssds for the z270 apex with 7x64, XP, etc. Hoping to have a replacement board in time but not sure I'll have the time to set up all the operating systems tia!!!
June 24, 20186 yr My IX apex is dead also and I only have MOCF for z170/270 now and my other apex is z370 hope you get ya a board ahead of time and get time to set it up
June 24, 20186 yr You guys try flushing with iso? My asus boards drop channels all the time, sometimes both, and iso flush fixes them.

June 26, 20186 yr On 6/24/2018 at 5:43 PM, funsoul said: Iso flush? Info please...don't know about it. Yep...keep dropping that 1st ddr slot Basically hold the board over the sink and dump isopropyl into the sockets to rinse it out. I get dirty socket all the time since I bench on ss with meh insulation.
June 26, 20186 yr So since it looks like tc isn't gonna be ready for the bench meet I'd like to ask for some help with a masochistic project of mine. I got 2x sr2s for extremely cheap a while back and have since picked up 2x x5690s. So what I'm thinking is period overkill. 2 cpus, 4x thermi cards, chipset, and mem on ln2. Would anyone be able to help me with this?
June 27, 20186 yr Author What kind of help do you need? Have an extra cpu pot, ram pot (with heatspreaders), a NB pot for a x48 rex (maybe it'll fit?), an extra digital thermometer and extra temp probes. Those help?

Would anyone be able to help me with this? depending what you need I might have some equipment lying around, or are you looking for help at the event to keep the ln2 flowing? either way I am willing to do what I can.

I'd love to go to something like this but I'm on the West Coast but it seems like you all are having so much fun I feel compelled to contribute.
