This is a very tough competition. I'm having a really hard time playing with ATI cards in this one.

I guess I won't even try with mine then as it seems to be a nVidia bench all the way. So close but yet soooooo far for me LOL!

Not true. K|np|n's last comp had an ATI winner. You just got to work harder for it

Plus Jeff, this competition isn't all about winning. It's about learning the bench, what order to run the test, etc. The grand scheme is to help you overall as a finesse clocker rather than run and gun. Keep your head up, and bench harder than you ever have

Heres a tip for my new freinds over at OCA. Your first run after booting will be your fastest, after running the bench, adjust your tweaks (precision, ect..), reboot and try again.
