Taiwan IIRC is 14 hours ahead of Chicago time, so... what time will the stream start in the US?

:D yes its been 9AM till atleast 2AM everyday so I will sleep like a rock on the plane ride home for sure.
got some pretty nice results, using my own CPU's and andres incredible Ram on ln2...matrix looks just about as good as the lightning but mem is lagging a bit. Im sure they will sort it out thought. 4-way 680 and 7970 was a bitch and a half took about 3 full days to get that running, ati drivers where a nightmare.

had a blast!
only bad news is that the boards started eating the chips, when using the venom pot and freezing the memory as well the board gets too cold and the ChiL chip messes up...sends 5v to the CPU IMC voltage and that about does it. Then the CPU gains a IMC cold bug around -120c to -150c and just cant handle any amount of ln2 benching anymore but it still works fine on air. I lost 2 6.7ghz 32m chips and andre and shammy lost 2 6.7ghz and 2 6.6ghz chips. Also happend to hazzans 7ghz 1m/pfast chip that we ran on lhe for the world records lol! sucks so dont use the venom pot and or maybe hold off on freezing memory unless you plan to run 32m or aq3 and dont mind risking losing the chip for now until there is a fix.

yea i saw you guys were using the F1 and i was wondering why. That explains it. A ton of work going on there daily. I tuned in every morning before work.

I tuned in the hours before Duke went to work and properly spammed the chat, btw Vince says lay off the anadrol or some derivitive like that :P hahahaha
That was a serious bingebenchfest man, I kept thinking Naw this has to be a looped video or something.

Simply awesome scores Allen.......And really made us proud hanging there with few of worlds OC legends.

thanks guys! everyone was really pleasant to be around. Raja/viss/hazzan were all really enjoyable people to spend time with. Peter is the absolute god of OC for good reason, very humbling to watch him problem solve. Andre provides the incredible hw. The ram he got from g.skill is unlike anything I have ever seen. I have a ton of pics to upload but spending today with the wifey so probably will be a couple days before I post em up :)
Kal, Im a pretty strong bulk right now rofl....dat dere creatine helpin ma gainz ;)
PS, I only ever used my chips :) so I dont feel bad at all about submitting scores its all legit stuff!

Creatine, what brand you using right now, I was considering giving creatine a run cuz I been power lifting lately and between work and court appearances, lack of sleep, the post-work out tissue repair has been really tough. Figure a creatine dump might just help with that. I haven't used supplements is so many years, not sure wtf they putting in ther with creatine.

That SUCKS
I made sure my last couple mobo reviews to put the specs for the controller on there. Only certain ones are good below 0 and then only to -40C IIRC. Might need to keep a fan on the controller to warm it up in the future?
Glad you had fun and rocked out with your cpu out :)
Splave

its the chips right right below the mem dimms, so when you are freezing memory and cpu it happens more readily then just the cpu or just the mem. Shammy said they have since fixed the issue on the extreme and formula, gene does not have the problem :)

OH not the CHil chip then? ASUS is funny like to obfuscate their controllers. Gigabyte you rip the spreaders off and can ID the VRMs or whatever not so with ASUS.
Not saying ASUS is bad just saying its what they do.
I will look more into what you said when I have a z77 infront of me and I am not drinking :)
