8m 27s ! congrats James

efficiency a bit off but hey sub 8min 30s is nothing to complain about

dinos22

nice going
why did you run with loose timings?
was it just a test run or?

youngpro

no not a test, this was my absolute best run that took me quite a long time to do actually

dinos22

considering you are on CAS5-5-5-x with PL10 your time is actually pretty good mate

dinos22

i'm just playing with 32M at 3.6GHz
i am on a 12m 09s run roughly atm

very good efficiency wow

btw do you have a vcore mod...i need finer adjustments for LN2 testing i'm gonna do

see Newbeetle's thread for the vmod
