people still benching cowie, lane jeppers didn't think people still bothered how are you guys still at it hey
Oh god phrozin my mentor and hero How have you been man? its been years my old friend please stop by more often please. The guys try to bench but you know its mostly gamers here and I don't knock them. Guys if you don't know phrozin he is the guy we all used to wait for to totally slap vga's around about the head he is a sick fuk Many fond memories of you at work overclocking and I miss the help I got from you
I am overseas at the moment myself and not for nothing I had a birthday just the other day too so have not much time for playing around either. Happi birthday to her and hope you had a great time and many more to come @ tj nice runs so far man looks like that card can bench too not only game huh?
yeh i pop by now and then but don't post much didn't think benching was still alive but seeing you mike and lane are still around been thinking of blowing off the dust off the soldering iron lol been thinking of building up a rig, love the long nights burning out video cards have always been a gamer 1st bencher 2nd Mike how things you old bugger still at it hey good to see you buddy jeppers you be just about on a guru3d pension lol might see me around a bit more as i now have lots of time on my hands theses days :eek3:
Yeah I'm still about mate. No time for benching really these days, but I still like to put together a good build every now and then. Would be good to see you back torturing GPU again!
I would love to see that myself mike Firestrike just got global points if anyone cares http://hwbot.org/newsflash/2561_pol..._global_points_enabled_for_3dmark_fire_strike
I keep getting this error whenever i run Mark 05 or 06. IDirect3dDevice9 Present Failed Device lost (D3DERR_DEVICELOST) It worked before but Heaven bench crashed and ever since i cannot get Mark 05 and 06 working. I thought people here you might know beings as they bench alot...?
Got a bit of a bench rig going now! Only got a G540 in it, did some benching last weekend on it. Put some scores up on the Bot Just need to get myself a little insulation, acetone and DICE and I can get started! Will bench the G540 again first, and perhaps a G530 I have coming then I'll see about getting a good 3770K to play with!
Nice I see you and mike have been blasting the bot matt why you need a good chip? any chip will do since on dice It will limit you to 5.1-5.5 Now get that chip cold
Yeah, good to see Mike uploading some results too! Be nice to see more guys at it! Anyone know what happened to BlackZero? Don't seem to see him much anymore!? Didn't realise DICE would be so limiting, so your saying I only really need a good chip for LN2?
I have not seen BZ either hope he is ok Yeah my 3570/3770k both were 5.3 - 5.5 chips at best on dice with ln2 6.1+ on both
Well if I can do 5.5 3d I'll be happy with that! I was thinking, I've already delid my 3570K, did like a year ago, I used Liquid Metal Pro on the DIE any idea if it will be OK at like -70!?
Getting closer - Hows the eraser looking so far Cowie? Not finished the eraser, ran out, going to buy another pack of 3. Have acetone on the way aswell, will hopefully get some neoprene or armaflex insulation soon and then order the DICE next week ready for next weekend.
You can remove the CPU lock down, I do. Everybody is different, I use celifane tape to cover the cap(keeps it cleaner). Removing eraser around the caps is hard if not. You went kinda wide is why I lol'ed at you, I cover only a little around the socket then cover it with black rubber matte which makes a seal to the eraser. Don't mean to high jack!
not hj'in jag not at all ok so far make sure to fill all the way up to the cpu even the sides just a **** hair under the cpu surface. the back side of the board too for dice that's fine. on ln2 with this board there is a lot of the power, cpu fan and ram slots you have to get too. remember 1st few times you try,test the mount to make sure nothings wrong I just hopped on my ud5 3570k again today to keep it updated
