So there I was, chillin on the couch drinking some iced tea one June afternoon.....

Yep, after a long 3 year sea tour, I'm back.

No pots, no big PSU and no LN2 but we'll see what we can do :)

Its been a long 2 days re-familiarizing myself with things. Got Image for DOS working with a few OS's loaded up ready for pawnage. Dusted off my Koolance CPU-360 and Swify radiator and ready to have some SuperPI 1M fun.

tinyxp rev9
a few tweaks
and a lot of patience :argh:

Bus above 278 was unstable. Will do some more research and hook up the ROG Connect next go around.

Goal is to push 2D for a while on water before moving on to the frost :green4:

Its good to be back :good:

Thanks Witchy!

Things here have been pretty slow as of late. Looking to change that one way or another.

Lets have a roll call.

Who's still here and what's going on?

Hey DOM, nice to see you chime in. It's been too long old pal.

Don't we have a few more new dudes?

4core comes to mind.

Not too pretty. Not able to break thru the 4.6GHz barrier with 1.5v on CPU. Need some cold before I push it too far.

You got a little fever there bro :good:

I accidentally hit the buy button on an x99 setup to replace my 24/7 from the egg. :rroulette:

Picked up the RVE with some 2666mhz run of tbe mill cas15 and x5960. Thinkin now i shoulda went with the workstation x99, it has extra chips for more pcie lanes which maybe then i could run 4-way SLi + M.2 nvme ssd amd raid 0 the sammy 850's.

3-way+ m.2 should be fine tho

Sounds like a stellar neat upgrade. :bs1:

As my wife walked out the door on the way today she says.

"Alright Honey, its Father's Day so have fun and do whatever till I get back"

Meaning... no chores, lol.

So......wPrime Time

The 1090T seems to be scaling just fine. Limited myself to 1.5v on CPU still. No need to burn up a perfectly good chip by voltage whoring. A few more 2D benchmark runs and board insulation begins. :good:

@ Witchy, was'nt planning on it just yet, first and foremost i hope for parts that work no muss. Curious to see wether the platform upgrade was warranted.

Spooling up to support OC Maximus and the return of the non-syndicated overclockaholics to come.

POP goes the PSU.

About a foot away from my face while benching Thuban.

The board, cpu and my face are fine. PSU, not quite.

Whatever was there went poof and disintegrated. :scared:
