Here are some fresh results/benchies from the new C3 revision of the 965BE. The testing was done by chew*. These look like they have a higher clock potential on all forms of cooling than the current chips. Check it out! “The last time I did a major review, it was entitled “955 Unleashed”. This time [...]

Hey guys, I recently won a small time benchmarking competition on OCN. Had tonnes of fun. You can check out the competition thread here. I managed to pull off all my scores a few days before the deadline. I used my regular setup, but through it in the windowsill for some cooler air intake. Here [...]

Well guys, made some awesome discoveries. I peeled off the heatspreaders on my ram to find Elpida IC’s glaring back at me. This was awesome, considering Elpida IC’s are failed or not up to standard Elpida Hyper IC’s. This gave me some confidence in pushing them a bit futher. Here’s a ram clock (however not [...]
