Hmmm that wallpaper looks pretty bad...specially at my 1280x960 res lol
I'm in logically, and Happy New Year folks!

xsuperbgx · Jan 1, 2013

I would guess that you could tile or center it. Just make sure it is visible in your screenshot.

ivanlabrie · Jan 1, 2013

It still looks kinda bad, but I don't really care for that...lol Just feeling picky cause it's the 'morning' for me (just woke up like this o.o)

Bobnova · Jan 1, 2013

Have to say I was amused by the background

Thought you might

ChanceCoats123 · Jan 1, 2013

Eh, seems kinda meh. I get the guy is nuts, but I don't think it needs to be harped on. :shrug:

ivanlabrie · Jan 1, 2013

M-man? or who?

Just dropped my cpu temps by 10c installing two more fans lol...I'll try to improve my 2743mhz oc and do at least 1 point here lol

His name wasn't used, so it is more of an inside joke. Plus this is the Internet and it's a meme.

If it is truly offensive it can be changed.

ChanceCoats123 · Jan 1, 2013

I don't think it's truly offense. Personally, I don't mind using it. I just think as the OCF benching team, we might want a slightly more professional background for our competitions. Lol

bmwbaxter · Jan 1, 2013

Next month won't be a meme

ivanlabrie · Jan 1, 2013

Hmmm can't take the screenshot...oddly hexus_pifast closes on me after finishing the run.

make sure you are running it with the PiFast bat file.

it is the highlighted one

Also apply the other LBB tweaks.

That's unstable clocks. Kept happening to me when I was running my 3770k on DIce. Do not know why. I raised the voltage for the next run and it worked fine. :shrug:

ivanlabrie · Jan 1, 2013

I'm already at the edge xD
0.1mhz more bclk and it won't boot...might be that.

Nice run jiccman, that ss is working well, I don't think I will be able to beat that without cold, and I'm not going cold this time, its a come and get me score for sure :thup:

ChanceCoats123 · Jan 4, 2013

Nice, Jiccman. I know what I'll need to win.

Not sure if anyone knows Deux, but I benched with him a while back. He's letting me borrow his 21L dewar for the next 3-4 months.

jiccman1965 · Jan 4, 2013

Can't find any LN2 over here or DICE so IM working on getting a Cascades soon.
