Hello everyone. I appreciate that Kal-El sent me this direction. We sent some PM's over at Kingpincooling..
This forum looks really great, alot of nice forum sections. This will be useful, and hopefully I will get to know some of you! Don't be shy, I love to talk about Hw, Benchmarks and overclocking.:thumbsup:
Anyway, my name is Kristoffer and I use "Kriztoffer" when I'm benching and at forums as my nick.
I am 19 years old, getting 20 this summer and I'm from Norway....brrrrr. Cold place:p
As you probably understand I'm a overclocking in the starting phase..Still learning and failing. I haven't been overclocking for a very longe period, a few months..around 7-8 I think. Most of my overclocking have been on water, I managed to get my 920 D0 at 5Ghz on normal room temps, kind of fun. But I'd rather want to bench 3Dmarks with it at 5-5.2Ghz..Most of my results are at Hwbot.org, you'll find a link to my profile if interested..a lot of crap there.
Me and a friend are now saving up for LN2 Dewar so I can take the step up to some real cooling, I've been trying out DICE, but I want to move onto Ln2. Better temperature range and more control over the temperature.

A Picture of my frist session with Dry ice.. Think I was up and running after 3hrs after I got the pot in the mail. Ran and bought 5kg of dice, knead eraser and Acetone. Just had to try it out.:D
Setup: Asus Commando, P540, OCZ Flex 2GB pc9600, KP F1.

Nice setup you got there Kriz. Only 1 thing I see missing... given you are of college age and from Norway.
I see no cases of Viking beer!
I was over in Iceland in 2006 and 2007 to meet Bobby Fischer, and I had plenty of that stuff.
Welcome aboard. And if you are looking for a cool benchmark, check out the link at my signature. Your system sounds like it could take over #1 if you can run your system for around 3 hours uninterrupted.

Haha, I drank too much beer this X-mas. I don't want any, right now:p Haha..
Ah, Cool, I've never been to Iceland in my life..
I will look into it, is it some kind of stabillity test/stresser Benchmark?

Thanks a lot mate! Very cool, they are great radiators. But the pain is shit, it keep falling off..

Actually, it solves checkers endgames, up to 6 pieces, and nearly 1 billion positions in total. It is a 64-bit move generator, so this code tends to exercise the CPU very well. It also does a mini-tree search (computationally intense) and it allocates a large block of RAM (842 MB) and accesses the memory constantly. It does not move and reallocate the RAM, it does "seek" addresses within the block, read from it, and write to it.
It's a great way to test if there are "bit errors" in your overclocking setup. If there are, you get very weird results in the "report.txt" file that gets printed out as a result.
This is the fastest result so far:

Welcome Kriztoffer!
Ive seen you over at KPC forums, nice to see you here also! Great setup you got already, LN2 will really complete things for you.
I know you will like it here... this is one of my favorite forums around the interwebz :thumbsup:

Thanks a lot Karma, I've seen you around too for sure.:) KPC are great for picking up some info. But they are all very hardcore, mostly.:)
Ln2, some volt mods and a lot of fun are my goal for the moment.
I got that feeling right a head. I've been using OCN a lot, I like it there too. A lot of nice and polite people.:) But I kind of miss a little more hardcore forum, but maybe not as hardcore as KPC. Since I'm not there yet, I'm still learning and failing. Seems like all ways of cooling are very accepted here.:p
Regards Kriztoffer.

Tomorrow will be my first time with sub zero cooling on 1366. And hopefully I will retake my 3rd place in Sp1 with p540.

I like the updated photo, my room is looking like the PC room of old, doing repairs for people. Although, all the "parts" are still in boxes so no having to watch where you step to avoid trashing components :)
