Latest casualties:

 

2 x Gigabyte F2A85X-UP4

1 x 6800K

1 x 5800K

1 x 6400K

 

and now 1 x HD6670. Goodnight sweet hybrid stage.

 

You can only submit one category bro Im kidding!

 

Ive killed 2x5800k 1xA85X Extreme 6 and 1xA88X Extreme 6

 

Turns out you SHOULD NOT leave the vrm bare on air

[I.nfraR.ed]

VRMs didn't get warm at all and our A85 Extreme6 just died out of the blue - no condensation, the board was even insulated on the bottom side with liquid tape. cpu volts were 1.6V, vGPU 1.45V and it died 15 minutes after the start. No particular reason, just tried to change a setting in bios, then it started showing weird post codes on the display and after the third restart never posted again.

^ mine are hot to the touch on a85 and a88

[I.nfraR.ed]

I always have a fan over it and it was fine in the previous competition, but it failed pretty quick in this one.

Just like the Gigabyte board long time ago...

[MrBreeze]

UE50 just dropped an LN2 bomb on the hybrid and APU stages. Nice work Deutschland. Gonna be a photo finish!

[Lucky_n00b]

Aaaaaand finally the A85X-UP4 bit the dust(The APUs were intact though), Had to rebench some of the APUs with F2A85-V Pro. ... why now of all times

I feel ya bro, we're also tortured with this AM3 stage since we're only going 4 setup instead of 5. Hopefully we're not that far behind in terms of points x_x

[Splave]

same here only 4 subs for aq3

His problem is with the benchmark itself, not the lack of hardware.

Killed FX53 and FX55 Claws.....and pretty sure killed an Ultra D.......and pretty sure killed our chances in Aq3. Not very happy right now.

Have to let it dry out to be sure.

Yeah, for issues like this just send me the scorefile to repack it with correct cpu frequency.

[l0ud_sil3nc3]

Prepare. . .

 

 

I can reproduce this every time lol, epic bugged run ftw!

Yup seems legit

[l0ud_sil3nc3]

Yup seems legit

 

 

If the 3dr file validates, surely it's legit

[Moose83]

Because they have no complete AM3 stage

[[GF]Duke]

I would have benched Aquamark 3 but no one told me we were not going to have enough scores. I figured someone had something for a late submission. Anything would have been better than not qualifying.
