    Not quite sure if you're serious, but K|N = killer notebooks, a retailers of tweaked performance notebooks.

    Well, the ES is just engineering sample. You really arent supposed to sell items with them, but I know many people who have them in their desktops with no problems. Its really not a big deal, other than the fact that he didnt wait for the final product to be released.

    He deleted it because you really arent supposed to sell them in your laptops. Obviously they work, but they arent the final product from Intel. They havent had all the kinks worked out. They certainly can be as stable and as good as the final product, but Intel decided to change some things before they finalized it.

    Although I didnt buy anything from him, I know he is a good builder. He has a lot of experience with computers. However, he got mad when he got banned here and then you ask a question and you get banned there. Its kind of hypocritical. He is a great builder, but not all that good at talking to people.

    I asked him to host a new pic for me. So before you go off the handle please ask for the facts. I told you guys about the bios change to increase performance and some of the test were all over the place. My photbucket account is back up and I post the new pic myself. =)

    I'm pretty sure that picture was edited becuase It was change file signature form jpg to png. And If you see it the stepping blank was erase in latter I'm pretty sure this was edited by someone not change because bios change

    His CPU is QX9300 ES

    Well whatever you have to tell yourself to sleep at night lol.

    I own the computer why would I lie about it?

    Anyways I will get some pics of the Chip itself, I am jsut nto goign to tear it apart quite yet as I have benchmarks to do and Stuff to get prepared.

    But when I post the pics you have to delete your tehory crafting.

    Sorry but I hate when people jsut jump into all these threads and start posting LIES LIES LIES when they dont even ask.

    Im staring at my new computer I think I have a better grasp on it than you.

    Why do it not be a full blank? Program error? I think it can explain by picture if you compare with my first post

    Smells like rotten fish, if you compare both pictures, on the stepping area of the Non-ES pic, one of the corners' border is in fact gone, maybe due to a bad editing job from someone, zoom on the Stepping Square yourself to see what I mean.

    Also, there is no pixellation on the part where the (ES) was in the second pic, meaning that it was just painted over.

    There is a comparation picture where you can zoom in easierly, and see the things I mentioned earlier:

    [​IMG]

    The first pic (green border) is the real and non-edited pic, the second pic (red border) is the false and edited pic.

    Edit: Added which pic was the "edited" one.
    Added yet another detail.
    Added a comparation picture.

    If you want to exchange or show some information you shouldn't bias. The fact was shown by picture and it's a good information for another buyer. If they don't mind the ES chip, I think why they don't buy it. but I want to show the fact that it should gonna be.

    MHooper, I for one appreciate your efforts. You have the quad core and went out and got any games we asked for and posted benchmarks and results that people selling these machines didn't even post.

    I wanted to thank you for that. Please ignore this person and all his crazy demands. Anyone that would make a thread that says, "K|N lie everyone" then complain he got banned and tell you what you are doing isn't good enough is not cool. Yesterday you were the man of the hour, today you're about to be strung up.

    Your picture shows the processor as a T9400 and a Q9300 so obviously there are some issues with the chip being understood. Now we have the photo retouch experts in here. Let it be a conspiracy. Update your stuff at Guru so I can see the benchmarks. Let this thread be what it is.

    RunningGunner you're the one who supported Mark form K|N. I don't talk he build a bad system but I think he wrong that don't tell the truth to customer. I don't know you have buy this system or not. but I dare to everyone who buy quad core system form K|N to show his CPU-Z. It was show the word "ES" for "now" I pretty sure

    Anyways thanks for accusing me of lying. I could honestly care less at this point. I have ran MORE test than any single person on this forum in regards to this notebook.

    So a picture isnt good enough now?

    You want VDO clips this and that.

    This is why I HATE this forum sometimes. I spent more money in a day than you will spend in probally a month beyond to post benchmark after benchmark. I could have easily just went about my busienss and played my games and ENJOYED my laptop instead I cam here to give you guys soem feedback and help you make a decesion as to which notebook to buy.

    Here are my words to you

    Dont believe me: Go **** yourself.

    He did tell me the truth I am the customer not you. I dont feel lied to. What is the point of this thread?

    I forgot to mention that my post is in fact a theory, as it seems that the team at www.cpuid.com has not added the Q9100 and QX9300 processors to the CPU-Z Processors Database, but, I only showed the edits that were made to the pic, after all, why not just explain that CPU-Z's database was not updated yet on the KN forums, instead of just masking the (ES) on the pic?, not like that there is anything to hide, am I right?

    Thanks for helping and donating to the computer research, benchmark utilities are not cheap, it is a great effort to buy them, especially when you do not need them, and also the time that it consumes to run every benchmark, as you stated, you could have just played games, instead of buying applications you did not need and running them, great job, mhooper, may more happy customers buy the OCZ Whitebook. :)

    Edit: Typo.
    Added a thanks message for mhooper.

    I do commend you hooper for posting all sorts of benchmarks for us to drool over while we wait for ours to come.

    So let me say thank you. :)
