    Team Icrontic

    We should make this an event and write up an article about it. We have some good local overcloakers and we could do it at ichq over a weekend or something. If we place high that's some good publicity for the site.

    Little known trivia: Icrontic was home of one of (or the?) first 3DMark team, including Oppainter and Mr_Icee. I'm not an overclocker myself, but consider me available for any support you need on the site or code-wise. I'm 100% behind it.

    Looks like the skeleton is going to get some time right next to a window unit AC.

    tried running 3DMark06 in Windows7

    "This product requires DirectX 9. Please install it before running."

    Install the DirectX 9 redistributable.

    The point was shouldnt DirectX10 already consist of DirectX9. All of my programs/games that only use DirectX9 work, so why should 3DMark06 be so picky?

    Because it's looking for DLLs in the DirectX redistributable.

    We need sponsors for the team, so we can have tri sli, i7 extreme, and ddr3 1000000... and liquid nitrogen.

    I could probably get a duer of Liquid Nitrogen.... but not Helium. I've played with Liquid Nitrogen... it's fun. :D
