holy crap! it's Patch!

Congrats dudes :thumbsup:

very nice work fellas

Looks like the GTX680 shit the bed for 3D11. :( Nice try though. Congrats on 2nd.

Greetings all and thanks. Al and I had a blast. MSI and Helen really rolled out the red carpet for us this year. We also hung out with Andre and Nick and got to bench at Asrock before we left. Spliggity will elaborate more I'm sure, as will I with pics coming soon.

BTW I think its time for the Empire to venture into the neutral zone once again...:shock:

So you coming back to ocing romdom :)

Any special sauce on the asrock oc formula mb ?

Just picked one up

Also I only got to watch you guys on the stage you guys make the other teams look small :laughing:

grats on the competition, Sounds like it was a blast. Good to see you around ........ :thumbsup:

yeah we pretty much pwn'd 32m with some sick nasty timings. I spent about 40 hours with the memory and board before hand making profiles etc. which made it pretty easy.

We binned the chips pretty quick, first one was a dud 5300mhz max, 2nd one would cpu-z around 5426mhz max. which is funny because max 32m was 5411mhz and max 3dmark11 physics was 5400mhz so we pretty much had it dialed in to the best it could be.

I was happy to see we had the best efficiency in 32m, and got second in that heat with a mediocre cpu. there were a couple 5.5ghz+ chips XD but we hung in there with good tweaking and wazza etc.

03 was not a strong bench for us. with only 5.4ghz and card maxed at 1855/1850 we still managed to stay in 3rd place. I think the koreans had a 5.5ghz chip and card just below 2000mhz haha!

3dmark11 we nailed down a 14.8k with cpu at 5.4ghz and card around 1700/1800 but after being cold on the card for 3.5 hours she was pissed at us lol so we tested the other one and we got the dreaded red screen at some stupid low voltage and said fuck it lets the heat the other card back up dry it off and stuff it back in. We ramped it back up and managed a 1764/1858 which gave us a 15427 which got us back in second and kept us there. was awesome our last and best run we started with 5 minutes left and nick andre and vince all cheering us on. :D

here is the screens of our bests, lost the 32m one because we changed drives.

We had a blast for sure, hung out at a sick thai restaurant with the Geil reps and then got to hang with nick for a while at asrock. I had my 580 lightning along so we hit up some 01. OC formula is pretty efficient in 01 and 32m. :thumbsup:
