    Wow. I'm really glad I started this thread.

    I had livestream problems (sorry to anyone who tuned in!) I need to sit down and have a serious word with my netbook.

    Event was great, really really good to meet Owl, Gappo, Scooter, Blindfitter, Dagmar, Borandi, Thanh and see Dave & Bex again :D

    Benching...... Borandi did great!!!!

    Personally, wasn't entirely happy with mine.

    Wilst, I dont see why a Religion-esk convo went on and I too wanted to see some Live LN2 cooling, and some decent benchmarking results. If people would have not taken so much offence to a religion based comment, News flash, what If I was offended by the mere mention Of Jesus being a Atheist. But at the end of the day, If people dont want the belief's being made fun of they should not have such funny belief's.

    Every one is in the wrong this thread is for discussion of a Live LN2 cooling, NOT who has the best imaginary friend.

    Lets see some results from the session Please :)

    Overclock.net thread: http://www.overclock.net/t/1180651/uk-dec-ln2-event-open-to-all-overclockers/90


    Borandis newspost:http://greenfacetech.com/show.php?id=21

    (He got the strongest set of results by far)

    I kicked around some 8800GTS 640MB SLI on Gulftown. With the exception of AM3 which was surprisingly bad, and 01 which I didn't bench, I took solid gold, with an AVERAGE lead of over 13%

    Then I kicked around a third GTS 640MB and soared over the 1GHz mark, which made me vaguely happy :)

    TBH.... we *were* benching, but the emphasis was on the socialising side :D A few of the UK benchers have had a tough time over the last couple months with forum upsets, so a few folk were making sure friendships were still intact :)

    Not uploaded my few pics yet, still waiting on a couple days to upload all their stuff.

    Feathers: 3-day ban for persistent trolling and name-calling.

    KidMod, longweight et al, warning - don't feed the trolls. Report, bug out, and let us nuke from orbit when the time comes.

    K404: Sounds like you had a cracking time, how many attended in the end?

    Sounded like a fun time, the 8800 must have put out a lot of heat!
    I hit the report button 2 pages ago. That is all. Have a happy new year everyone!

    In total, we had:

    Hivizman
    El Gappo
    Borandi
    RCG_Bex + LN2 beehatch
    RandomOwl
    Thanh55
    ScooterJay
    Dualist was around for a bit, but had to work :(
    ....and me :)

    I didn't think the GTS was THAT bad, but I had to step away from the rig for a minute and asked Borandi to hold the temps for me. When I got back, he said it was eating up LN2 scary fast. I did lose a couple runs when I started talking to someone and took my eye off the temps... Maybe it was bit hungry in hindsight :D

    Thanks for the threadclean :)
