I'm just saying this cause benching SB on LN2 isn't as fun as a chip that will scale when you full pot bench it, like ivy.
No worries, I know that sandy is not the perfect cpu to play with sub-zero cooling. But since im only overclocking with dice I see no problem to use it. Soon I'll have an ivy and the cooper version of my pot to play with LN2.

I'm not really worried with its performance by now, th cooper version will surely be tested with an AMD cpu to see how it scales. But for now theres no need for such.

You said it...I benched with a 8150 on ln2 with an F1EE. It was almost like if the pot had a hole where the ln2 was going out. BD is really HOT!
Pic of the session and one single result ):: (I was
REALLLY low on dice...I couldn't use it in the day I bought and since today is holliday (Independece Day) here in Brazil I couldn't buy any more. Maybe tomorrow I will.


TEEEERIBLE efficiency, but counts

PS.: The mobo wasn't insulated
