"Computer Camp Week" May 8th-13th

[Avacado]

Next week will mark the first get together of EHW members since the sites creation (That I know of ). My wife has dubbed this event as "Computer Camp Week", and so it shall be named. Members in attendance will be @Bastiaan_NL, @Fluxmaven, @firedfly and myself. The overall goal of this first of many meet-up's is to strengthen community relationships, generate member driven media/video content and hopefully complete some of the tasks listed below without getting too hammered in the process. We will be live streaming most of what we are doing on the EHW discord and all are welcome to come hang out.

 

Agenda:

1. Volt-modding HD6850's for the upcoming "Cheapaz Chips Compo".
2. Trying to fix a broken 12900KF.
3. Testing a G7400(AVX), 12600KF(AVX), GT710 Fish.
4. Volt-modding GTX 260's.
5. HD7990 Restoration.
6. Multiple waterblock installations.
7. 12600KF Delid.
8. Lots of benchmarking.
9. Beer pong.

 

I look forward to seeing everyone IRL and on stream. Please feel free to make suggestions to the above list. More content to follow next week!

You forgot to mention a few things on the to do list which I probably shouldn't mention here either, but it's probably good for the team spirit

The HD 7990 was filthy to say the least and smelled of cat urine. No worries...

 

 

The process...

 

 

Clean bean...

Is it time yet to unleash the 'There goes the neighborhood' ? 

 

But seriously folks, wish I could be there, but duty (such as arguing with several gov't departments here at the same time) calls. 

 

Have fun, y'all !!

Thanks J7, it's a lot of fun

Last day of the get together already, but we accomplished our goals. @Fluxmaven will be compiling a video at some point. I hope to be able to do this again at some point next year.

Maybe I'll be able to join you in the future. Looks like you had a lot of fun, guys.

[Fluxmaven]

Not sure if it was safe to let me install this sexy copper block... I'm starting to feel like my Titan Black at home could use a friend for SLI...

Wow looks like you guys were busy working hard. White board checked off? 

 

I'd like to know the results of those volt mods

The whiteboard is checked off, the nice thing is you can just erase whatever you can't finish.

So most of the GPU's have only been tested briefly for functionality but have not been benched besides a quick 3dmark vantage performance run. @Avacadowill eventually have to do his cards, @Fluxmaven has a modded HD6850 now and @firedflyhas a modded GTX680, Quadro 600 and a pair of GT210's to mod himself.
