Just for everyone to see it, and to know why its not on HWbot. I forgot to validate in my rush to get the WR. :bang head:

Next time guys I'll do better.
 
Yeah I would have been able to validate it. The CPU was able to get up to 6.9ghz but not long enough to validate :( Once I get back from my vacation, I'm going to try and get that sucker back up to those speeds.
 
said it in the other thread, but I'll say it again here, you've got it on film, see if the guys at the bot will let it in...
 
Dude, what happened to the 6890 run? I could have sworn I saw you save that screenshot?

If you can talk the guys at the bot into accepting it, I was right there looking at it and I announced it on facebook. ;)

I don't know if validation is part of the requirement, or just their way to ensure people aren't submitting fake scores.
 
I'll start a thread over there. Matt if you can dig up the video that would help with my case.

BTW, the CPU is looking dead. After letting it dry I tried to stick it back in the CPU, and it was a no go. Doing another rinse down to see if it helps, but its not looking to good :(

Are you testing it in the same board? That sucker might still be soggy.
 
The board is fine. My sepy boots up just fine. Although it could use a rinse in the dishwasher after all that vaseline went into the RAM sockets.
 
I don't care whether you validated it or not, that's one damn good screenshot. Excellent work AMD master.
 
Just cause you don't get points doesn't me it didn't happen. Awesome result man! Guess I went to bed a few mins too early, 5am. :).
 
sadly, it seems the learning continued after dolk got home. Hit the validate button while you have the oc avtive. but nice score none the less. Its funny how dissapointed you were in the board and chip starting out., only to throw down on it later.
