AHowes
Missed my chance.. didn't see the notice till 2:30 am and tried to log in and got locked out for too many attempts. Got up today and fixed thst but not enough time to debate it.. Rather have the Classified if either.

Not sure I'm in the mood to deal with the wife with the idea of blowing 4-5k on a new build atm.

Sure ill regret it..

GL with who got the next notice!!



if you were queued and got a purchase link, simply reply to the notification and explain that you would like to purchase but had trouble with the process. they will get you sorted

Think you're going to washer mod the board?  Based on Luumi's testing I don't think it may as big of an issue with the Dark (it's a hefy boi).

The way imgur does its albums is funky, they try really hard to not give you the regular picture URL.
 
those pics are excellent, thank you.  this is too pretty of a board to hide in a case
 
Also.. got my notify.  Exciting

Yah, guess at most you'll get the same performance.  Just nylon 1mm washers, right?  Might give that a shot too.
 
Any plans for lapping?

i'll def be lapping whichever ends up being my best 12900K. not sure if i'll get to it this week as we've had contractors here last 2 days so I have a bunch of residual cleanup on my to do list. hoping to test ram oc first, have a few kits to push, the dom plats and oloy blades (both 6200) and a couple of the 6000 gskill. hope to get these above the advertised board limit and maybe unlock the pmic for the oloy kit (has the 10 layer pcb)
 
these are the washers I grabbed https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MX9CWJT/
 
@redteamgo THANK YOU for fixing my photo post. can you tell i'm a software dev by trade? lol

Keep us up to date with the testing, will be interesting to see where you land.  Haven't used Oloy before, so will be nice to see some comparison to the big guns.
 
I'm thinking I'll give lapping a try this go around.  I preferred getting the CPUs delidded, but now it just seems too risky.  Need to find myself a nice chunk of glass.
 
May make a trip to Home Depot to see if they have similar washer.  Not sure what I'd do with the other 196 washers.  I wonder if I can 3D print them.  Can't think of a reason PLA would be worse than nylon.

Got invite to purchase email today at 11:24 am pst. SMS code isn't getting sent though to complete. Made 3 attempts 20 minutes apart. My Cell # looks right and must have worked for z690 Classified purchase.
 
Replied to sending address ( "EVGA Customer Support" < ordernotify@evga.com> ) about the issue. unsure if there is a better address to get support on this.

Maybe support@evga.com ? Or bug Jacob on Twitch.  He gets those all the time.

FYI, PLA is not very stable under temp fluctuations.  Be careful as they may just melt at worst case or change dimension due to thermal swings.

Yeah best bet, Nylon has good dimensional stability over a wide temp range, it can absorb moisture and become brittle over time, but in the computer case environment its highly unlikely.  I use mcmaster.com for work, I am a mechanical design engineer.  Here is a link to more types of washers then you will ever need, they ship super fast also.

Did you get the SP from your Asus board before putting it in the Dark?  Or is there another way to get those scores?

redteamgoplease post some pics once you get it on the bench!

 
here are the ones I took during setup and tuning. first impressions are this board is an apex killer. most retail apex won't go above 6400, but the oloy blades booted 7000 C32 (kingpin daily oc profile) and 6933 C31 1T ran ycruncher...
 

 
excited to dial things in this week and see what we can do

Need to get rid of this trash Aorus Xtreme board asap.  Hopefully I didn't miss it by too much...  How much does the EVGA score factor in?  I've only ever registered my Kingpin 3090.

I think the EVGA score is a big factor. Going by the time stamp / score vs who received notifications.

Zippy, what are you using to cool the water?

Last time I did anything like this was in the mid 2000s with an evaporator heat exchanger connected to a small refrigeration kit.

thanks! trying to get a clean run at 6933 1T C29 now. Crushed last night with e-cores enabled, but i can't for the life of me figure out how to turn on AVX-512. From what i've read this board's ucode is before the avx-512 removal so idk, disabling e-cores is supposed to turn it on but no dice here.
