Now thats exactly what I was wondering about Buckeye :) Wether or not my areca card was gonna run on Win 7 :D

So far Windows 7 RC seems to work better than Vista SP2...How sad is that? I really hope that this os doesn't get screwed up for release.

LOL

Have you tried anything since RC?

RC is awesome. The [s]private[/s] public release of the software is just great...


It is amazing how simply people are fooled by benchmarks...

(Look at me I can honestly say I am number 5 in the world on Spi1M for my CPU... well there is only 7 submisssions yet...
come on people get ta benching...)

Actually thats wierd...

Holy Crap. My point discrepancy made sense to me today.

Currently I have only 7.1 points active. (I am running a new release chip so it easy to place top 10... there is no competition... yet)

Yet says I have 8 on my Profile.... So if 1st place is what maybe? 1.5 points, than kingpin (sorry to lazy to type the solid colons up... ) must bee first place in all 999+ benchmarks? Can I get in on that action?

I do not get it. ACcording to the rules you must be one person owning hte HW and SW or some crazy crap like that...

I do not get where the money comes from.. the benchamrks? They get cheat sheets that the rest of us have to figure out? And read what others have posted about whatever mix of architecture?

I mean after all enthusiasts killed Vista.. (IMHO)

"Was that over the top? I can never tell."

I have no idea wtf you were trying to say there...Try again but this time make some sense!

I think we have an Overclockaholics+ member here. What other things might he be aholic'd to??????:rofl

LOL

Yah tried some extreme cooling on my beers last night. Finished my benchmarks in record time, now the hangover kicks in...


On a serious note, was griping about the points a little. Not sure how one person can have 1500 points.

Somethin like you are allowed 300 hardware points and you can have as many global points as you can get. Global points fall of faster in my experiences as newer, better hardware comes out which means bigger, better scores. you can have more hardware points than just 300 but only 300 at a time count towards your overall points.

Ahh.

Guess being extreme world class OCer has its benefits lol

For those who don't know, the Windows 7 RC can still be downloaded as of this post but the cutoff date is set for August 20th.
If for some reason you still don't have it, you'd best get on the ball or you'll be SOL. The mail I received said you could still get keys for it after the cutoff date if needed. Best thing to do would be to get as many keys as you can while downloading the RC and be done with it.
