Crew Leeghoofd Posted March 15, 2012 Crew Posted March 15, 2012 They closed it down to BS by some people (including me prolly)... wise decision in my book... promises were made, ofcourse nothing would be done as usual, just hunt the little guy and nail him to the wall... Quote
Massman Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 He's not banned from anywhere and I don't think he will be ... Perhaps Intel will refuse to sponsor an event where he is a participant. Or they'll twist the hosts arm to not include him in whatever contest, on threat of reduced support. Or perhaps it's Francois being Francois, threatening loudly in public. Honestly, I doubt that many people within Intel really care about this kind of leaking. It's a market segment that is oh-so-small and there's practically no competition; no matter who leaks what, Intel's not going to lose any market share or sell one mainboard less. On the contrary, this kind of leaking probably gets more people interested in the product. Quite frankly, if Intel wanted leaks like this to be completely gone, they'd be able to do it. AMD can, Nvidia can, hell ... even Apple can. Instead, they keep shipping these ES samples in large quantities to ODM and OEM without having the companies account for them. The biggest advantage is that these companies actually use them for testing and validation, which makes Intel millions of dollars since everything works smoothly when it hits retail. To be honest, I don't think they have much to say when Anandtech, one of the largests media sites (and US based!), still has their review up. A review! Not just some crazy extreme guy running 'pointless' applications. No. A genuine, full-blown, practical review detailing all aspects of Ivy Bridge. Priorities ... (that said, haven't had any request to take down the thread ... it's not just down to the size of my balls) Quote
Crew Don_Dan Posted March 15, 2012 Crew Posted March 15, 2012 Thread on XS seems to be deleted. Yes, it has been deleted. I'm not happy with that. Quote
TaPaKaH Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) haven't had any request to take down the threadok, let's get this more exciting with ... more leaks ---snip--- Edited March 16, 2012 by Christian Ney Quote
ME4ME Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 I don't like this kind of leaks tbh. It's very impressive, but: Manufacturers produce insane results -> Everyone is impressed -> Peope start benching themselves -> Everyone disappointed, cause they never reach these clocks. Pretty much like 7970. OC going way to corporate. Spoils the fun.. Quote
rebelion Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) ok, let's get this more exciting with ... more leaks --snip-- Impressive CPU and memories there! Edited March 16, 2012 by Christian Ney Quote
M.Beier Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 Awesome, now I know I will never have a 7ghz 32M stable ivy. I can go to bed happy now. Jokes aside, I dont think anyone in this thread, not even mr.NDAmassbin will get that great a chip. Quote
dumo Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Imo, it will be like SB, only different now is the Mhz...from 6Ghz to 7Ghz:) If you lucky probly only 2 or 3 retail 3770Ks binned, if not then hundreds. Lol Quote

Lol Traditionally it has been always like this, just that with Sandybridge even air binning was possible and even air/water people were for the most part able to compete with DI/LN2 users. But it seems IB will again be a exclusive playground for LN2 users Quote
thebanik Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 My 5.9 2500k seems like a joke now lmao Willing to spend 300$ on the joke, Quote
DOM. Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Willing to spend 300$ on the joke, On a 3770k ? I might try my luck with one mybe ill get lucky like I did on the 2500k and just have to buy one Quote

knopflerbruce Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Glad we're not XS... thread not "appropriate" - delete delete delete. business as usual. Quote
Movieman Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Glad we're not XS... thread not "appropriate" - delete delete delete. business as usual. That's not correct. The thread was closed because it was becoming a flamefest. Then pulled to try and calm down the storm that it created. I know because I closed it and later pulled it after speaking with Charles. The other IB thread from that Meteor guy was pulled at his request which I also did. Just so we're clear, I don't like closing or pulling threads and enjoy seeing the new hardware as much as the rest of you do. Dave --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Now that's me speaking as an admin at XS, my personal feelings are I find it interesting that nothing has been said about IB being shown at Anandtech and I mean nothing. Also interesting that Intel has an advertising deal with that site thats into 5 figures/year Also for how many years has coolater been leaking stuff and nothing has been done? This reminds me of the schoolyard bully that only picks on the little kids but hasn't the balls to go after someone his own size. Edited March 16, 2012 by Movieman Quote

Breaking NDA is just another business model ... Not a joke, but a business model. Apparently, you should first always break NDA and then you get Intel sponsorships . Seriously, I do not get why ANY professional website would still care about Intel's NDA ... too funny for words. Quote
Massman Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 Fyi, Waiting for Anandtech or Coolaler to post news about Intel coming after them. Though, I seriously doubt it's going to be either one ... probably a small time leaker (as usual). Quote
knopflerbruce Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 I hope he gets whoever he can get, regular guy or big boss. Kids/family or not, you still have to face the consequences of what you do - and all of these guys KNOW that the screens they post are not OK to show to the public. Quote

Isn't it enough to just close it, and all similar threads that may pop up about the same thing? It just feels like sensorship when it's deleted. Like the content is "dangerous" to someone. Speaking as as XS user, though... don't want to mix my roles here, as a HWBot moderator it's not my job to tell you how to moderate at XS:p +1 to the Coolaler stuff, I wonder if anything will happen there...

The unsaid thing is that if you "just" close it the screenshots are still there, As I said, I did just close it. Others made the decision to move it out of sight and I abided by those decisions. No probalem with your thoughts on this. I just wanted to clear up any issues and none between you and me. Quote
