Posted March 4, 201312 yr For any folks local to the West-Coast/Nor-Cal area.. I am hosting a small bench meet on the 9th of this month. I have room for 2-3x others that wish to bench.. Heres the thread on OCN for more details -> http://www.overclock.net/t/1365479/ocn-event-ncal-ln-fest-2-cold-with-cl3p20-again/0_40 PM me for more details if you are interested.
March 4, 201312 yr Author Yes, Livestream will be starting around 9am PST.. on http://199.66.238.50/channel/clep-bench Should have an SR2 to play with as well as a few other platforms. Not sure yet where the attention will go.. have from skt478 up to choose from. Unfortunately, I dont have much in the way of GPU's at this time.. my meager collection of 5770 and 4850 will have to do unless others bring more robust gear.
March 8, 201312 yr Author All seats confirmed for the session.. picking up 2nd 160L today [airgas tried delivering an empty one to me yesterday..]. Almost time for cold!
March 9, 201312 yr Author Have fun! Too bad it's private, I'm not that far away from sacto. Its only private for those that dont inquire ! If your interested in stopping in, shoot me a PM for the details and address. I do not have anymore room to bench though.. all of the seats are taken for LN. You are more than welcome to come through and watch or help out though. *Those that are coming will have the chance to put some hands on skt1150
March 9, 201312 yr Oh! Good to know. I'll keep that in mind for the next one, probably do some benching too. I'm about 6h northwest of sacto so it's a bit much to drop in, but I appreciate the invite!
March 10, 201312 yr Author updated OP on the OCN thread link.. posted a few pics, meeting up with the photographer onsite yesterday to grab the edited pics/vids for posting soon. many thanks to all that came to bench, good peeps and good benching.. and of course, my wifes cooking.. = winwinwin
March 11, 201312 yr Photographer on site? Nice! Looking forward to see the pictures and videos. ... what did your wife cook, by the way?
March 12, 201312 yr Author 2.9GB's of pics and photos.. still sorting and editing now... updates coming soon *as for the cooking... the menu was Tri-tip sandwiches, baked beans and cesar salad.. the guys killed it. There were not many usable results from the session.. though 4x new CPU's were binned, several new kits of RAM tested.. I believe xxbassplayerxx did manage some submissions for Team Cup, and Wumpus and I got some time to play with the SR2.. which wasnt too prodcutive, but was fun.. saw some good wprime times with CPU's at 5.2ghz.. first time either of us have benched 24x cores. ..and Jake left some Corsair swag for the whole gang! - Thanks again btw- my wife said she still wants her pink ROG shirt
March 15, 201312 yr Author updated the OCN thread with pics from the event.. here are a couple.. check the thread link below for the rest. http://www.overclock.net/t/1365479/ocn-event-ncal-ln-fest-2-cold-with-cl3p20-again/0_40#post_19396532
March 15, 201312 yr Whoah, loving the pictures! Very nice quality! When is the video going to be ready?
March 15, 201312 yr It was an awesome time, I got there a bit late and so I ended up just binning the few chips I brought so no results from me. The 3770K had a pretty bad IMC (23 at 2600) so it went back in the box, and the two 3570K's were above average in terms of IMC, while one of the two has a good core 1.3 5ghz 32m 4c 4t. It was also a good time putting a face to all the names as well, and Jake hooked us up with a bunch of swag so thanks Jake and Corsair and CL3P20 for having us.
March 16, 201312 yr Author After editing I only have a few seconds of usable video.. too much to clip out..maybe enough for a rough mash-up.. with an audio overlay..but who has time for that? *and to the Intel birds that got spooked... That is bassplayers Z77 UD4.. not a Z87 that is pic'd and frozen.. though if you would like to send me some to test.... along with a nice IMC
