N2 Gaming

I pulled out the DFI NF4-SLI-DR and put the OCZ Platinum DDR400 in the yellow slots with the single core Athlon 3500+ ready to boot up and make some scores until others are able to beat it.

Did not even know it existed. Yeah Google doing the right thing. Hmmm, for once!

Poster child's for Where are they and what are they doing now.

Oh yeah severed body parts laying around and moved from the scene of incidence. Definitely a no no, oopsie

Thanks. I'm happy with the repair. I took my time and matched each blade individually back to where it had broken away from. Then layed them out and lined the broken off blades in order to maintain proper placement. Followed by the tedious task of gluing them back on one by one. The last one was the most difficult because there was not much room left to operate. I was going to post pics of the ram kits I finally found out in the garage but most of it won't be used in the competition so kind of off topic. Edit: The fans on this twin frozer are tied together into one plug. That is a lot of fan options there on ebay btw Good to know all those options are available. Pics:

20 Deg C is pretty crazy just from removing the IHS. It's pretty cool how he showed the 7700x's PCB ripping away from the rest of the chips etc. Made me think he should or possibly could integrate some type of pressure system with a specialty type of material for a rubberized O-Rings that allows even pressure to be applied to the PCB to maintain placement while the IHS is being shifted back and forth to break the bond. I hope that makes sense. couple beers in and my mind starts getting goofy lol.

I found all kinds of hardware today While looking for my OCZ Platnum DDR400 PC3200 and Crucial Ballistix DDR500 PC4000 ram. I found all my other MSI Cyclone GTX 460 1GB GUP's Which would have come in handy the other day when I was gluing fan blades back on that hawk twin forozer LOL. Oh well probably for the best because if I had found those before fixing the fan on the hawk I most likely would have just boxed it back up with the broken fan blades "N2 Hides with a palm to face"

I have the Opty 180 I bent the pins and straightened with the Credit card trick and the delided Athlon 3500+ if I can find it LOL. It's out there some where in the garage O.o I could always buy a chip but that's just wasting money LOL.

We have noooz socket 939 entries yet, what gives ? PIO ???

I was under the impression the Ti meant Titanium ???

It's a shame the GTX 1080 Ti can't be used for Stage 5 NVIDIA GPU

Ok then I"m finally done with this GPU and can pull it out and put it away LOL.

I could swear when I finally got a validated submission that it said I need to make 2 more entries. Does that sound correct?

Problem solved My God, I had to jump through so many hoops just to get an entry ran and properly submitted. 1st talk with PIo about it, Then find a card after tearing my garage apart, then clean and card and break 5 blades off of one of the twin frozer fans, glue the fan blades back on and then the whole sli not working followed by HWBot Unigen Heaven Basic not working and then getting the run submitted. N2 pat's him self on the back Oh yeah and then after finding out after submitting it that it was not submitted to any team LOL....

Second Image shows me at the bottom I just joined today right before submitting

When I signed up for HWBOT I put Xtremehardware as my team is that how it's done?

thank you for that. I was able to get it figured out just before I posted then saw that you replied with a video on how to do it.

I was finally able to get it submitted. Shwew wipes forhead. Only took a million try's to get the format typed in correctly so the drop down would list my hardware.

HWBot does not like me

I've hit a wall at 2873 points and best I can get is with my GPU core clocks at 850MHz with stock Vram settings of 1800Mhz. I think if the 290's make a run the 460's will fall off any way so yeah moot point after 490's are in play.

so are we required to submit 3 scores? I just pushed gpu core to 850 and got B 2872.37

I just saved that screen shot. Need to figure out how to save the heaven score. I overclocked the GPU core by 20Mhx LOL Just baby steps to see what it can do before it freezes up. Time to put the side of my case back on and see if I can do any better Edit: Ok Let me go back and make a screen shot from clicking on that link to make it official I'm wondering how much better my score can get???

Hows this? turned out sound was not playing causing the issue.

Are we allowed to run the HWBot Heaven Xtreme DX11? Any time I try to use the Basic DX09 the Heaven app hangs and does the Not Responding thing. I get better score with Xtreme DX11 too, go figure.

Ok then let me get the software portion all straightened out so I can see about putting up some 460 SLI runs.
