I know right? I have a pic I will upload tonight as well. Might not be as pretty as the 285's but is still pretty!

killer scores guys. It's been a slice lol. I can buy a pot for the cost of the gear to own this comp so I gotta tap out hehe.

Just one thing; what is stopping people from using ELEET, Setfsb or other clock tools like them, to increase the blck/fsb in between runs? Moral fiber? Conscience? 3DMark can't detect it, the trained eye can't detect it. I'm not accusing anyone of that here but this is beast created with cpu limited competitions.

Thanks to OCA for inviting my team to this competition before the XS thread was posted, at least we got to sit on top for the majority of it :)

Some great scores guys
Just got my biostar to work
Although, only with RAM in one of the 4 slots, none of the others seem to work.....
But, may be enough to get started at beating everyone at this comp, :p

Reverend.

me deanzo dinos and hey, can easily see if someone cheated. its hevily visible on screenshots.

also , the only people who would be able to get away with it would be one of us, so yes there is risk, but we just have to count on moral values and consider a users tweaking skill if we think the score is 2 high.

Thanks for the participation. You could still bench for the fun of it. The prize isn't the only thing you get out of something like this. Either way I will soon be ready to go back to battle with you guys over at hwbot.

I sure am glad you guys are here. I'd like to think we could catch something like that, but it can be very hard too. I would hope people are less apt to cheat after what happened to OPB. His shame didn't stop at hwbot. FM even took action.

It's called trust. Hopefully the peeps here aren't about beating the system. I know there are those out there they abuse the system but I want to trust in that we have a crowd better than that here.

Thanks Chuch. I had allot of fun dusting off this old bench. It's been literally years and it was nice to rip it up on the X58, even though it's a bit gimped. Good times.

As for being able to spot the bclk/fsb tweaks, it's impossible to 100% prove as everyone here has tweaks that can give a huge boost in the drop of a hat. This is something that our team talked about and I think we'll probably stay away from limited benching and lean more towards the bot but it's been a slice!

Good luck all!
