Or nVIDIA will finally stop releasing weaker cards just to keep in line with AMD and finally get their actual cards onto the market. Either way competition will be good for us, I wouldn't mind picking up a 770 around 300 :D

finally my 6850 can retire and my new build can be 100% completed, hoping this line of cards would be either cheaper than GTX 7xx or perform better. Can't wait!

Add OCCT to that list also.

Seriously though the PL server is pretty bad, everyone is just clipping through the rocks.

You did not post a time in the first post, I had to look through the thread to find a 5pm est time. To be honest even the new 6pm est is too early especially for westcoaster like me, that's only 3pm pst. Most of us have school/work (at least I do). Maybe something like 10pm est/7pm pst next time?

Hi I don't really know any of you but I would love to get involved in testing the new maps. I would greatly appreciate it if someone can shoot me an invite :).

Can I still hope for HRG enoryt?

fix your links please

Scoped body does nothing, but noscope body still does 50; intentional?

I would still end up buying the 3ds just because of the clamshell design; the 2ds seems too bulky to carry in my pocket :/

oh come on I wake up 2 in the morning and there isn't even a stream yet :(

Edit: Finally!!

The older line of 3xxx series are the Ivy Bridge Chips and the newer line of 4xxx are the Haswell chips. Because Haswell is more condensed, it produces more heat than the older Ivys. Same with the Ivys being hotter than the old 2xxx Sandys. While the 4670k is the new replacement for the old 3570k and performs about 10%-15% better, it will also be hotter. It will be a matter of balancing between heat output and clock speed, decide whether you want it to run at the same overclock (and thus better performance) with hotter temperatures or lower clock (but performing the same) and similar temperatures.

Edit: Haswell is also known to be more difficult to OC because of some overheating issues.

For my personal build I have the 3570K at 1.2v OCed. There is something weird with my CPU where my second core out of the four can be 15c hotter than the rest some times. I suspect that there might be a air pocket there but I'll have to delid it and re-test in order to determine that. However, even with my second core running hotter than expected, at idle my normal is somewhere between 35-40 and 55-65 max under 30min stress tests. As long as my CPU is under 70c I'm happy (althoguh they can do up to 90c).

The thing with the H60 is that it doesn't really hit any performance mark to justify the price. Let me run through a few scenarios when it comes to overclocking a i5 3570k for example, assuming reasonable voltage.

3570k at 4.2GHz (which is what I have)
Modest overclock, very common mark for average OCers. At this clock generally the CPU is not really going to get much hotter as a result. While the stock cooler might not be a good idea, a cheap, AND GREAT cooler would be this one: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/cooler-master-cpu-cooler-rr212e20pkr1.
Compared to the H60, it will most likely give you similar temperatures at half the price without overheating issues.

3570k at 4.6GHz
Great overclock, with enough tweaking I would guess that a decent number of 3570k can reach this clock speed, but it comes down to the chip itself and the voltage it needs to be stable. At this clock, unless you somehow was lucky enough to get one that can get to this with a low voltage the H60 might work. However to be honest once you reach this tier I would suggest going into the $80+ coolers like the H100i/Kraken X60/NH-D14/Silver Arrow Extreme range of coolers. The H60 is really not good enough to keep these OCed CPUs cool enough I fear.

3570K at >4.6GHz
I don't know what magic you did to get it to 4.7 or 4.8, but I can tell you for sure that the H60 will not be enough, again you want to look at the $80+ range for coolers.

Bottom line:
Personally I just feel that the H60 doesn't do anything useful. Compared to a good and cheap air cooler like the Hyper 212 it doesn't really perform any better with a lower overclock on the CPU and it will likely not be enough with with a higher overclock. Tiger if you are deadset on geting watercooling, maybe a H80? That's about the only single 120mm pre-build watercooler I could maybe see being useful? But even at that price it is not as good as the NH-D14s. I would say just save a bit of money and get a Hyper 212.
