I go by Planet or Cpt.Planet so you have prolly seen me around the boards.

Real name is Jake and I am currently working in the industry. I left a job at EVGA few months back to pursue a better opportunity so right now I am really enjoying that.

Finally getting back into LN2 overclocking after a while of not doing to much. New job gives me more time off and I can bench at work once in a while so that's nice. Have competed in several contests and several top finishes as well as a World Championship.

*Not so much gaming anymore

I feel your pain...

High scores are meaningless anymore. Unless they count for something :) :Hi:

My favorite games are Wprime and superpi, with a little Pifast thrown in now and then. I hope to someday understand the Futuremark series... because lets face it, that is where the big gamers play, but that requires a lot of expensive equipment unfortunately.

But like me, you can keep upgrading your controllers if you pay attention. :clapping:

ScrappyCoco... it is all good :) Thanks for being here and pushing and pushing like you do :Hi: I know exactly how you bench. I do the same damn thing. Bench what you got, and push till another botter goes down :) We may not compete with the big dogs.. .but we do what we can with what we got... and that is the overclockaholics way.

Believe me... it has been said enough times by the big dogs here.. if you have not seen it.. Every boint counts.

[Patch]

Hey everybody. Nice energy you've got going on here.

Nik: Patch

My brief tech history:
70's: Atari. (At friend's. We never had one).
Early 80's: Arcades. Quarter on a string led to endless Joust.
1986-1994: Brother word processor/typewriter. Swore off video games.
1995-1999: Used Unversity computers at grad school. Still swore off video games.
2000: Bought first computer so my wife and I could hop on the interwebs.
2005: Bought Age of Mythology on a whim. Tried a few more games.
2007: Upgraded RAM in my Dell. Felt pretty proud of myself.
2008: Upgraded to an 8800GT in that same Dell. Felt real proud of myself.

July, 2008: Realized that I have 3 kids that will one day be teenagers. Looked at our friends with teenage kids and noticed that they knew far more about computers than their parents. Started to think about what sort of content there is online.......:scared:
Figured I better finally learn how to use these things FAST so I'm not stuck in the dark.

Decided to build my own. E8400 + P5Q Pro.

Sept, 2008: Heard about overclocking, so tried it. Promptly bought an aftermarket heatsink.
Jan, 2009: Decided I needed an i7 for the interwebs. Figured I should take the custom watercooling plunge. Fun. Bought a dremel.
Summer, 2009: Got a DICE pot from Duniek. Got mad at my Bloodrage baseclock issues. Heard about the PCIE mod and bought a soldering iron. Never soldered anything before, but when I get an itch I scratch it. :D

-80 started to seem kinda warm, so............dewar time.

Do I sound addicted?

Nick- Kow_ciller (you can call me kow, or Dex)

I'm a soon to be 3rd year college student. My main hobbies are PC gaming, and of course overclocking. I've been building computers since I was 9, and been benching since I was 12. Started benching with my Athlon 1ghz and radeon 8500 that I volt-modded and made a custom cooling setup on it. At the moment I'm rocking a P55 platform, and bought 775 setup and a Dragon Evo pot so I can go cold over the summer. Up until a year or so ago, I would mostly overclock for fun, or get a higher FPS in my games (which I still do to some extent) but since hwbot changed and I actually have points I've been addicted with it.

Here I am probably the first Team OCX member here :D

Just saying hello and thanks to Splave for helping out with registration :thumbsup:


I cut off benching for about two years and now I"m back since March and started with some budget CPU grinding and collecting some oldschool GPUs which need to be modded and punished soon. So I was looking for vmods but unfortunately best place with such info- vr-zone database was down :ohcrap: So I started searching other forums and after seeing your growth in hwbot rankings decided to check it out.

Didn't find much info about vmods I needed here but in general I'm quite impressed what you have achieved in such a short period of time- so far I really like your forum structure and team spirit. I guess I'll drop in here as regular as our local and OCX forum :thumbsup:

[FACE]

IDK if it's anything like riding a bike.... I look at it like a bad cocaine habit:

All you want is more, sleep isn't necessary, and sometimes you would rather do that than eat. When you get a good bench session in, the high lasts for what feels like forever, but if you have a bad one, you want to beat the dealer with a bat. Or something along those lines...

New to OCA... just joined up yesterday thanks to Splave and Kal-EL.

Nik: PolRoger

Forums: Mostly on OCF, XS and a little on OCN.
I've noticed and seen some of you around and also that you were members here at OCA so I thought I would come over and check it out.

Name: Harland

Profession: Currently a stay at home dad with two small children. I did work in the paper industry for ~ 18 years until my plant was closed. When the kids are a little bigger I expect I'll go back to work but most likely not back to my old industry.

Hobbies: Computers/Overclocking, high quality air rifles (so I can shoot around the house) and I've also got a few firearms in the gunsafe. Custom Knives... kind of backed off of that interest when I stopped working due to their high cost. Cars... current ride is a G8 GXP/LS3/6sp stick. Champagne and different kinds of wines in general as well as good food although two years ago I changed my diet/exercise/lifestyle and gave up most of my drinking except for a few times a year.

Benchmarks: I'm not a big bencher at least not yet. I've been running mostly just air (sometimes water). I've been pondering the possibilites of going cold... maybe soon? I tend to do more 2D benchmarks than 3D. I don't have current g-card tech...as I'm still rolling with GTX280.

Recent Hardware: Mostly socket 1366 these days on open air test bench. I've got a couple of 920's and a W3540. I would love to test a 32nm 1366 chip but $$ cost is holding me back. I 've got a few different X58 motheboards to go along with the chips. I'm looking forward to the new tech...Sandy Bridge especially socket 2011 and Bulldozer. I haven't tried AMD for a while now so I'm quite interested in seeing it in retail form.

[Splave]

sup pol welcome aboard :) its only a matter of time before you go cold. I have slept 8 hours in the last 3 days due to limited time to bench something had to give so sleep had to go :D

We have quite a crew here, some really talented overclockers at your disposal and just a real positive place to discuss our love of teH computerz. Enjoy!

[ocgmj]

:welcome: and enjoy yourself!

[Chuchnit]

Welcome PolRoger! Enjoy your stay here man. Friendliest forum on the net.

Hi, my name is Travis still. I still work at a prison, still fix sewing machines and still love computers.

[MaadDaawg]

Welcome aboard PolRoger. Stick around here and you'll be cold in no time at all. It really is the only way to bench, and you get hooked fast. Sounds like you got a good base to start with, but...

Wtf is AMD :Dizzy:

[FACE]

Welcome PolRoger... enjoy a nice asshat free environment. Feel free to post your escapades as often as you like... If you look at our handy sub-zero sections, you will find yourself sublimating away $$$ in no time.. :P

Nip.... didn't know you were into sewing machines... better not be banging my mom for free repairs, you bastage.. rofl.

[DrNip]

HAHA, bazinga! I need to open me up a PC / sewing machine / banging moms repair shop. I'm telling you there is money to be had there.

Real Name: Bryce

Profession: Salsa Instructor, Bartender

Hobbies:
I've had a computer in my house since I was born... my pops was a big computer enthusiast so I grew up tinkering with Apples and Commodores and PC's. Gaming on the computer ever since I can remember. The majority of my computer tweaking has been to improve my performance on games ;).

Outside of the virtual/hardware world I live to travel and dance around the globe. Taught/performed Latin dance in the US and abroad for the past 8 years. Currently back in Honolulu doing a regular Salsa event in town and bartending a few nights a week.

Current HW:
Nothing recent, my gaming rig is in LA right now and I've since donated to my bro so I'm looking to build a new system with some top end parts.

Kal-El plays the same game I do online -Unreal Tournament 3- and turns out he lives in Hawaii as well. I figure I can browse around and look at some setups and get some good advice for my new system I'm building.

I'm Opty. This is what I do:Duron 1.6 @ 2530/WP32 ~ 1M 3sec 297 (http://hwbot.org/community/submission/1086066_optytrooper_wprime_32m_duron_1.6ghz_1min_3 sec_297ms?new=true)

Hondacity suggested I stop by and learn about SP32M which is not exactly my strong suit mostly b/c I simply don't bench it much. I prefer PCMark 05 and WPrime though I have been slowly improving my SP1m.

Thanks for having me.

Real name: Bill Peppas
Profession: Crazy-oh-meter :D ok seriously now, PC Elect. Engineer, mastering in Microprocessors
Hobbies: let me think... well... overclocking, music ( listening, playing [ synthesizer & drums ], DJing ), watching movies/tv shows, gorgeous only women, hanging out ( cafe/bar/pub ), basketball, fishing, diving
Benchmarks: gimme moar ( every single one ), favorite's 3D Mark2001SE
Current HW: a lot, a 5.86G 2600K, a few 980X's ( mostly crappy ones ), high end x58 & z68 mobos, lots of cherrypicked RAM kits from a-data, geil, corsair, some VGA's, lots of HDDs/SSDs/Sound cards/PSUs/RAID Controllers, etc
Hardware history ? Don't get me started.
Started with the notorious Amstrad CPC & Amiga to 386DX and every single high end CPU & VGA onwards.
Prefered SW: for 24/7 Windows 7 x64, for benching the best OS per application
About:
A weird guy.
26 (! what ? nooooo nooooo no! I wanna go back to being 16 plz! ) years old crazy ass mofo.
Advantages: very very ( if not absolutely ) straightforward, honest, friendly, caring, sharing, understanding, and easy to get along with ( as long as you're not a bad person, that is a no-go ), over-realistic ( can be misunderstood as pessimistic at some point lol ).
Dis-advantages:
Very very straightforward, very picky on women, can't stand liars ( especially the white lies kind of people ) and any kind of bad attitude ( any kind, any form ), very picky on food ( I have an exquisite taste in food & women )

My first FPE ( First Person Encounter :D ) with a "PC" was in late 1989, and I've been hooked up with computers & technology ever since ( I fetched a screwdriver and tore it apart in mid 1990, my mother came back home and saw the Amstrad ripped apart and went crazy, but I re-assembled it and fixed the malfunctioning disk drive and she was like "wtf", never doubted me ever since :D )
If it's working with electricity ( and it's not an iron, oven, dish/clothes washing machine ), it is my thing :D
And no, I'm not a geek.
I know my stuff, like my stuff, but apart from that, I'm just an ordinary person.
Just like with music, I like everything except folk/metal/hard rock, I like trying new things ( no no, gay porn and 2 boys 1 cup ain't on that list :D ), challenges, and I'm open to everything ( perhaps even Ice Dancing [ well, maybe not, at least not with those gay tight fit clothes :D ] ).

If a girl asks about me, just don't mention that I have to do anything with computers, I hate that look on their faces.

Hey everyone, I'm new to the forums.:Hi: I've been a pc junkie since 1989-1990 myself. I'm by no means an expert though. I stumbled across this site while searching for benchmarks on thermal compounds of all things ( building a new p.c. ). After looking around a bit I figured I could probably learn a lot here. I'm new to overclocking myself so hope you guys won't mind the occasional newb questions ...

[Witchdoctor]

hello,

Don't sweat the details, we all have to start somewhere. You into gaming or living on the bleeding edge ?

I'm mainly into gaming. I play everything from mmo's to rts and fps. Anyone here going to play the new SWTOR or BF3? Planning on both myself.
Planning on picking up the HD 6950. Anyone had any experience with these cards? Read you could flash to a 6970 but don't know if it's true.

[BenchZowner]

FPS player here, BF3 is already up & runnin'.

I don't play enough and regularly anymore, but I do get to shoot some asses every now and then.

Welcome to OCA btw jphilipg1 :)

[ShrimpBrime]

Hey everyone! I'm ShrimpBrime, a current member of TeamCP.

I was referred here by my Team captain Mr.Scott. He thought I'd really like all the OC action you guys have going on here, and So far everything I see, I really like!

Little of Shrimp....

I'm a garage HW modder. I like attempting overclocking and bench marking anytime I get a chance.
Mostly an AMD user, but have dabbled in some intel hw along the way.
My most favorite thing to do is the unthinkable and de-lid soldered processors. Then over clock them and every time there is a big difference in temperatures.

Also a Diesel Mechanic and father of 2 (almost 3..probably by Christmas) Boy, Girl, Boy, in that order. My Wife has been great, but doesn't like my OC habbits :laughing: You guys should have seen her face the first time I brought LN2 home. Priceless.

Any how, great to be here. Gonna read some rules, look at some pictures and do some reading.

TTYL,
ShrimpBrime.

[Patch]

Welcome ShrimpBrime!

Always nice to see a CP gent.

Gratz on the 3rd kid. Mine are Girl, Boy, Boy. I smoothed the first LN2 venture with my wife by making ice cream with it. :)

[Witchdoctor]

Welcome to Overclockaholics

Congrats on your third ........ brave soul

Foster the Fever ............ :thumbsup:

[ShrimpBrime]

Hah sweet. Good thinking, Ice cream always get's you in!

We picked Jordan for a name. So it's Dryden, Ella 10 and 5. To be technical, Dryden is my step son. He came into my life around the age of 2 and he's been awesome.

[kikicoco1334]

Welcome shirmp!
and gz on the new boy :)

oh btw there is no way anyone's family reaction can beat my mom's when she found out where my LN2 came from for the longest time :rofl (from her lab)
she is making me selling my dewar which i am like that ain't happening EVER! so i been hidding my MVE Lab 30 for almost year and half now? lmao

but anyways, welcome to oca

[ShrimpBrime]

Lol! She can't be home forever. Tell her to take a Vac, and break out the HW!!!

Do you still get the LN2 from the lab though??

Thanks fellas!

Gotta mention the smilies. Very cute! :band1:

[kikicoco1334]

God no! she already told the security people if I go in with my dewar they can call the cops lmao

I get them from a welding co. now, I kinda fix their computer time to time and they gives me free LN2 win and win (each one of their call are $100 ea, that's on top of what ever it needs to be done I AM MUCH CHEAPER AND BETTER!)

[Mr.Scott]

Shrimpy at OCA, nice. The staff and members here are awesome. The amount of knowledge is incredible. You WILL learn new tricks here if you apply yourself and ask questions.
@ OCA- Shrimps a good dude. He's pretty much our teams goto "cold" guy. If you treat him like you do me you'll have an ally for life. Thanks for having us OCA.:)

[Kal-EL]

:welcome: :D

My Wife has been great, but doesn't like my OC habbits :laughing: You guys should have seen her face the first time I brought LN2 home. Priceless.

Yep.. i think i live about 20-30 mintues away from you... Bartlett/hanover park area? :)

go to school in evanston (long commute lol)

You have been getting around. I see you everywhere. ;)

lol yep.. i started out on overclock.net (current hwbot team) and i gradually started finding other sites when doing benchmarking research :blush:


Hi there. Yep i've seen him around too. Overclock.net i believe. Welcome to our home.

yep ocn is my home forum.. and thanks :toast:
oye! :welcome: to OCA :good:

thanks for the welcome :D
welcome to oca bro! someone that's around me age group :laughing:

awesome! haven't met any high school to early college peeps into extreme benching around the forums.. nice to meet you :good:

on a side note you guys have soo many emoticons to choose from :happy1:

[kikicoco1334]

one of my buddy is prob the same age as you (19) he is also here, but he has been working 73hrs (two jobs) and going to skool i have no idea how he is doing it but yeah... well he don't get much benching done anymore...

(i am late college :P)

[MaadDaawg]

yeah bro, think you and I are about the same age :blink:, well, okay - maybe not but since we're talking benching and not having sex it shouldn't matter :D

I almost can't think of a worse crime against your own team mates.

Witchy need to elevate this up the ranks.

Not like we dont have popo power on this boards :)

Crimes on the internet are still crimes ;)

@assassin. Not saying you are guilty, just saying witchy is da man! If you crossed him we will find you.

[Witchdoctor]

This is old news, I thought it enough that he just never showed up again, and here he is, worse yet claims not to remeber :Dizzy:

Like I said Assasin/Juan, leave, never come back ever, you are and always will be a theif

I hope you least at squared up with Shannon, just be happy I am not in driving distance, That would ultimantly turn out bad for you.

[Sanmayce]

Hi to all,
I am an old boy interested in "overclocking (http://www.overclockaholics.com/forums/index.php)" C programming etudes like strstr and hash table functions.

The reason I joined Overclockaholics (http://www.overclockaholics.com/forums/index.php) is because I need help to benchmark my latest search function written in C.
The test package takes some 14 minutes to complete and consists of one 197MB English text file and one 212MB DNA sequence file used as haystacks and to be traversed by Intel 12.1 and Microsoft 16 compiled 64bit executables.

I hope my CPU&RAM stressing test to be run on some much faster (than my Core2 T7500 2.2GHz) machine.

The test is downloadable at:
http://www.sanmayce.com/Railgun/index.html#DownloadSection

For those interested in what the test exploits:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/250566/Fastest-strstr-like-function-in-C

The resultant log file is some 90KB pure text, if your machine is I7 Sandybridge I would post the results at my article at http://www.codeproject.com, thanks in advance.

Rob is only like 6hrs a way i think just saying...

[Kal-EL]

Hopefully this finds a happy ending but if not, lemme know, I'll take care of it pronto.

[Assassin48]

No need, I'm working to get everything settle straight. I know I messed up but some take it too far, especially if I'm trying to make it right.

There is no excuses to what I did and I take full blame, once everything gets settle I will gladly leave because it won't be the same for me. But like I said, once I make everything right. Just easy on the hatfull comments even tho I know I deserve them.

[Kal-EL]

Very well, carry on soldiers.

[Sanmayce]

Guys,
nobody replied to my request, please tell me the right sub-forum to ask for such a favor.
My test reveals how latency and RAM bandwidth affect the fundamental HP search functions.
I thought that overclocking and tuning High-Performance search functions have much in common,
maybe I put my request on wrong address?

Nobody seems interested, probably because they already have so many other benchmarks to work on already.

[Sanmayce]

Thank you Kal-EL, I was under the impression that searching a pattern in text was an interesting benchmark niche. (http://www.overclockaholics.com/forums/member.php?u=1)

HAA I've seen Shannon drive six hours, to recover other people's stuff from another site............ He's not the type you wanna piss off Assasin!!! :thumbdown:

[Witchdoctor]

Just to set everyone straight, Assasin sent me a 100 dollar money order as a first payment, I am hopeful he will continue to do so until the $ 375.00 is paid off.

I am glad he is making an effort to do the right thing, I hope he see's it through to the end for me and anyone else who was left hanging

[Splave]

glad to see him man up

Hi PhIlLy ChEeSe (http://www.overclockaholics.com/forums/member.php?u=1311),
obviously my test is out-of-date, it won't raise anything but my greedy eyes.
I still have some hopes that an old-school overclocker will do me a favor by running the batch file waiting 10 minutes and sending a text file via email:

This is my latest strstr-showdown package (a zip archive).
File: KAZE_Trident_vs_BNDM_64_vs_Elsiane_vs_Hasherezade. zip
Size: 120 MB (126,074,306 bytes)
Size unpacked: 416 MB (436,599,966 bytes)
Size needed: 700 MB
To make the 'Trident_vs_BNDM_64_vs_Elsiane_vs_Hasherezade.txt' file simply run 'RUNME_Trident_vs_BNDM_64_vs_Elsiane_vs_Hasherezad e.bat' file.
It takes some 14minutes to complete on Core2Duo_E7500_2.93Ghz.
Of course in order to obtain decent results stop all the concurrent processes before running the test.
Also enable 100% computing power.

Hope dies last.

where do we get the file and is it threaded?

[Sanmayce]

where do we get the file and is it threaded?

The test is one 126,074,306 bytes ZIP file at:
http://www.sanmayce.com/Railgun/index.html#DownloadSection

It is not threaded, it is 64bit executables (C source included) simple console test.
I will be very glad (and in debt) for Intel and/or AMD rigs being tested.

The results are to be posted at:
