hehehe, maybe we can add water cooling into the rules, but I think the advantage may be too big with the added uncore mhz it might allow. We can hash that detail out when the guys get the balls to come in this thread. :P

This is going to have clock limits. I just haven't decided on the mhz yet. ;) 24/7 beater should work as long as its an X58 platform.

Honestly I don't know anything about either cooler. I thought the new 980x cooler was actually usable vs the older ones? Once again this contest will be a low clock challenge of sorts. MHZ will have a reasonable restriction put on them. Cooling will still matter though because it will decide on the uncore you can pump out.

I don't have an air cooler and my 980x was OEM.......water would work, though.

Splave 06-30-2010 08:56 AM

I vote water :) or cap the uncore
+1 to cpu tweaker in pic, nice addition

Splave 06-30-2010 09:07 AM

also be prepared to explain any tweaks you used at the end of the contest for the betterment of the hive :)
