[D33PJackal]

Lol, I had the exact same idea as this when I woke up this morning.

[Bobnova]

Stream's live, insulating right now.

[Voidn]

At work so I can't watch. Hope its a good clocker! :attn:

[mdcomp]

Wish I could watch at work, but sadly, I can't. Happy Benching!

Oh and I tweeted/facebooked all our followers/fans about this. No pressure though. We don't have that many yet anyways.

[D33PJackal]

Yay work, it is nice to post and make dolla dolla beelz.

[moocow]

bob, you're missing the benching hat. Missing out on that extra POWAH.

[Bobnova]

Still going! <1lb of dice remains.

[SeanBest]

Awesome idea

[moocow]

congrats on the runs man. good work :D

[MattNo5ss]

Congrats on #23!

You bumped me down a spot, just like I thought you would :D

Great job!

[Voidn]

I see lots of boints, must have been a good session.

[Bobnova]

Superpi1m and wprime32m went really well for me, cpuz got a few. pifast and the long benches... Yegh :P

Found a solid wall at 532fsb, but 531.6 was fine :D

Got ~41.4 points i think, plenty to move up a bit! Now i need to sell this cpu and get an e6400 or e6600.

[Bobnova]

The highlights of todays efforts :D

[moocow]

You better have the hat this time or you're missing out on mhz.

[Bobnova]

Got a hat. Got a 19 point cpuz and a 19 point pi1m. On 32m now.

[Bobnova]

FYI: I do not like pi32m and wp1024. They are not my friends.

[MattNo5ss]

Beast of a E6600...just racking up the points :D

EDIT: I ended up lagging out, looking forward to checking your submissions tomorrow.

[Bobnova]

14th on the team now, only chinstrap remains before it's 200+ points time. Maybe i can get that e4500 to go like this and get brollock's 920 :D

[Dolk]

well You have to go through me first... once I get up there.

All day benching session with 2 systems. I got my S939 going and my 940.

I got a lot of hardware to burn through :D

[Bobnova]

Ok, here's the benching station:

And here's right after the pot came off:

Terrible mount, the pot runs into one cap of each bank of VRMs. I'm going to cut a couple notches in the pot to fix this issue. None of my four dice runs have had good mounts.

EDIT:
You can actually see the dent in the middle cap on the bank at the bottom of the picture.

[Bobnova]

FYI: I do not like pi32m and wp1024. They are not my friends.

Ironically, wp1024 got me globals. It is my friend after all :P

[Bobnova]

Hoping to do some benching (live, of course) tonight.
Right now, i'm pre-flattening some eraser for insulation. Should save 15-25 minutes on setup having thin flat slabs already made.

[KonaKona]

Looking forward to it, hopefully I'll have my rig back together by then so I can be in chat without horrible amounts of lag.

Also, I'm not sure how much it helped, but I twisted the pot around on the CPU a few times while mounting and I think I got a nice mount. It looked pretty even to me. :shrug:

[hokiealumnus]

Bob, PM me if you do decide to get this going, what time it will be and the URL. If I can, I'll post it on the frontpage & the Overclockers facebook page.

EDIT - Right, let me know what you're going to be benching too. :)

[Bobnova]

Don't know what time exactly, probably sometime between six and eight pacific, I'll post here and PM you when it goes live.

[hokiealumnus]

Just checking in. Will try to keep an eye on my PMs occasionally tonight. If you go live I'll get it published. :)

[Bobnova]

And I might be able to enjoy it with my trusty sidekick! :D

EDIT: oh, I thought that read tomorrow somehow. :(

[Bobnova]

I should be benching LIVE tomorrow afternoon/evening, from something like 4ish or 5:30ish till whenever the dice runs out (10ish to 12ish). All times are Pacific.

What time i start depends on when i get off work, i aim to have everything prepped and ready to rock and roll before i leave for work so i can pick dice up on the way home and start right away. We'll see if i manage that.

[Bobnova]

I'm live.
