    +1 and it has been like this every since it did its update some weeks ago... anyone knows how to fix this? I read somewhere that deleting the cache will do the trick, but I would rather not?

    Sorry, for going OT.

    Clearing the cache did not help with anything for Firefox on Win 7 on my system. There's something with the NBR web server in that the style sheets are not transmitting properly, or have a serious error that a browser cannot apply the styles to the rendered page.

    I end up with what Papusan reported here - http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/slow-site-performance.792212/page-13#post-10334987. Post any other helpful findings within that thread.

    I just found this thread and am curious about your "offer".... would this allow me to order a Clevo (likely getting the DM3) from any re-seller, yet obtain your Prema BIOS and vBIOS for that system? Say if i bought mine from Xotic instead of HID.

    I'd like to donate if this is the case, but I'm also toying with the idea of waiting for the 7700k refresh as well as solid reviews on the displays and wonder if waiting would also be okay.

    Nope, this is only for existing Maxwell model Mods...

    While Kaby Chips will probably work in current models, waiting for the next hardware refresh will take you a good chunk into 2017...

    that's unfortunate. thank you for the quick reply.

    edit... yeah, I'm aware I'd be waiting a bit and the update isn't too big a deal from a 6700k to a 7700k. Still... with the new Samsung 960 nvme just around the corner and my waiting for a good QHD TN vs FHD IPS review it'll depend on how close the 7700k is at that point.

    Also huge thanks to Mark and Kevin who helped bump the total to $3300 USD in the past 24 hours! y'all are a great community that makes the great Prema get what he deserves and continue to provide us with more bells and whistles.

    Small update:

    There have been few recent requests from people who wish to be able to participate in 'HIDevo's initiative', so we decided to keep the window open just a little while longer...

    Thanks @ everyone for your love and support. YOU GUYS ROCK! :)
