LOL. I think most of u guys from here agrees that the comp got power but no standard.

Power refers to those most expensive hardware parts and
I refer Standard as the potential, passion and understanding of overclocking and what real gamers want and need in a gaming PC.

I guess they fail that. What ya think?

No special thing we can see from both system. It just like many people own tat rig.For me i will voting for people who come with really different and unique setup rig.

1st impression when i saw both rig, i already upset. Why? It is becoz both are using unproper cooler to tame their Quad. And the second one is unproper PSU....if im not mistake one of them are using CM850w PSU.

omfg, noob rigs spotted at http://overclockingchallenge.lowyat.net/

post this on XS forums, or any tech forums (other then malaysia) and they are gonna have a field day flaming and laughing their arses off.

ridiculous, seriously.

and like coolice said, what is the objective? ocing? promo? malaysia boleh use expensive hardware but still are noob at utilizing it?

yeah, totally. i was like, wow overclocking systems. let me go c what cooling they use. guess what? one didnt mention a cooler meaning (STOCK COOOLER). now how the hell u overclock a extream processor with that? hell, even the mobo is useless, but again intel is sponsor. so i keep quite. then graphics card, they use the ATI one? hell, for the last one year ATI couldnt beat Nvidia.

all i can say, these systems are a shocker. they dont qualify for any competition.

Those rig surely look like a freakin rich geeks' rig that thought OMG...I got Quad Core n Quad X-Fire...my rig raaawwkkk!!!!

If they give me enuf money, I, a noobie can OC better than any of the rig... To be honest, when I studied at Ipoh (2001-2004), SNS was much smaller, n their sales rep. don't know much about rig-pimping (@ dat time lah...)...just wonder, how far they've improved?

Now, if only Computer War's rig can add more RAM, dat would be wonderful...as for HSF, ThermalRite Ultra-120 Extreme and good 120mm fan would be enuff for me...i also would like to have HDD coolers...give more peace of mind

And also, power supply changed to PC Power & Cooling one la...
