Well my Muskins don't have that in it and definitely not my HyoerX's. My Blades cas 7's prolly did but those went back for a refund. Oh well, like I said it will come down to the fastest RAM.
But don't think I am layin down as I have until 8/5 now to pwn that score!
@ supes - Sorry if my complaint was the tipping point. At least I kept it in the discussion thread as I already knew your pm box was crazy!

nah actually if i could get close to 40 i would be pretty stoked
but there is no point killing RAM over this
i can see that you still have some tweaking to do with the info provided in your screen
just keep at it

Some benchers werent sure so they benched what they brung, others chose to play the gray from the git go. I can see problems arising and it'll be no fun for anyone at the end of the day. We live and learn in anything new so here we are learning.
SO ROUND 1 is being extended to Wednesday, August 5, 2009, at 0700 hours Hawaii Time. You have until this time to get your screenys in on time. CPU Tweaker is being dropped from the i7 screeny requirments so we have continuity across the contests. Its not a popular decision, I know.
ROUND 1 REVISED SCREENY REQUIREMENTS
-Screenshot with the following all in one screeny (No internet? Get some): (REVISED!!!!!) Super_PI_Mod_1.6 w/Validator 32M
techpowerup validator showing valid run
CPU-Z 1.51 w/processor, mainboard, mem, spd,
Text document w/ "Name, date, time, score, "Overclockaholics SPI_32M Challenge"
CPU-Z validation link that mirrors the date,time u completed the benchmark w/your name on it must be in your sumbission post.
AGAIN, Uploading to the forum is not necessary, having a clearly viewable screenshot IS!
This is a perfect example of a screenshot:

Enjoy the rest of the contest.

Aren't you missing the CPUz validation link mirroring the date, time w/name?
