I wouldn't count on that being the case, lol, considering so far that's all I've received so far, which wouldn't mean it's extra but rather "in place of". Would be nice if it's extra and I'm still getting my actual prizes as well, but I'm not assuming one way or the other. I'm glad to see that you received yours though. The odd thing is, each of the three of you were supposed to get 2x of these flash drives. Since you got 3 and I got 3, perhaps it actually is possible that the other 2 didn't actually claim their prizes. Until Peter or someone else lets us know, we're all just speculating in a dark room, lol.

Dang it, lol, I said "so far" twice in the same sentence. *shakes fist at no edit option*

Ok here is a little ATTO bench, I tried first on Marvel Controllers because Phooey I only have 2x 6gb's from intel with 4x 3gbps from intel, and 2x from marvel for 6gbps

Well, Marvel turns out of course to have problems, Got my computer Freezing for a second or two quiet frequently, also giving 100mbps Less then I should so Marvel Controllers STILL FAIL. But I never updated them anyways...ha

But here you go, Quite some nice speeds this was 2nd run through RIGHT NOW after switching to Intel controller.
So once again Thanks Kingston and Bjorn3d, now I gotta figure out what Imma do exactly with it. Hehe.

[foxmobouser]

Wow thx thats nice. Is that the SVP200S37A/120G? The specs have its write speeds at 460-480ish.

[Cody_Irwin]

Yeah its that, and yeah, its around there, but according to my bench even higher past 500mbps by a 5-10mbps pretty much Pretty good solid drive, just wish It was like 500gb, already used up 70% of it with just one game and a few bench programs ahaha, Hard drives never like me =)

That's a big game!

[Cody_Irwin]

Not really its League Of Legends alone.
There was 112 or 111 GB's worth of space on it without formatting which I did not do either.
Then add in windows install.
Then add in like maybe 1gb worth of Bench mark stuff.
Then add in all the drivers for my comp, with also some of the software for it like AISUITE and CPUZ Ect.
I got like 35gb left, Dunno how or why, but it just doesn't add up right in my head still though too, got no temp files or anything either. haha.

That's a big game!

I need to figure out how to boot my machine up at 1866 or 1600 or w/e speed I want to.

The neat thing with this memory is it has 2 XMP profiles: One at 1866 with loose timings and one at 1600 with tighter timings. I am going to play around with both to see if, in real world usage, I can see a difference. The MOBO manual says that 1866 is really an OC whereas the 1600 is standard. I am thinking tighter timings with no OC.

Any suggestions?

[werty316]

You won't notice the difference in performance between 1866 and 1600.

Consider those a bonus prize (They won't ask you to send them back.) until they send out the prizes which you've rightfully won.

I highly doubt Kingston would want an "Intel France contest snafu" on their hands.

[peti1212]

PM_DMNKLR, I'll try to check on the issue, but first I'd like to see what those other three guys got to see if there was a mixup.

[Goliath182]

I haven't got anything so far.
