    At what point is it considered extreme cooling

    in General hardware discussion

    Posted

    My idea of winter ambient without the extra layers of clothes, or winter in a box as I explain it to my friends, most of the components are assembled and have all the sheet materials on hand just need the area in my garage to construct the actual box and stand. Upside no board prep for condensation, down side is going to be the warm up time to change out components.

    Athlon XP Bartons

    Cut and Pasted the low power 3000+

    I was Wondering if there could be separate categories for the Athlon XP 3000+

    AXDA3000DKV4D, 13 x 166 Barton

    &

    AXDA3000DKV4E, 10.5 x 200 Barton, Pic could be better sorry.

    It is a little hard to make up 2.5 on the multiplier with the FSB, yes I have the latter. You can check your standings for the Athlon XP 3000+ and see how they compare. This would be for the locked versions, don’t really care if someone wants to drop down and compete.

     

    This also happens with the Athlon XP 3200+

    AXDA3200DKV4D, 14 x 166

    &

    AXDA3200DKV4E, 11 x 200

     

    There are a few others, but the multipliers are closer as you drop down the list.

    Confused about HWBOT

    Kithylin, It is frustrating when you try your best and get .1 league points, (been there, but you can pick your races). As pointed out by Antinomy you are leaving a lot of points on the table by not benching all available categories for a particular piece of hardware, maybe not a lot of league points but by the hardware in your first post team points.

     

    I’m in the Enthusiast League and benching for team points is my main way of contributing to the team.

    Where Does This Belong

    Thinking this is a X300 HM due to the default clocks, came out of a Dell box.

    It is only 32 MB but the ram clocks better than most. Competitive in all but 05 & 06, so does the 32 MB versions need a separate category

     

    Results

    AM3 = 29092

    3d 2000 = 20954

    3d 01 = 15127

    3d 03 = 3487

    3d 05 = 608

    3d 06 = 62

     

    Same settings all runs.

    I'm not THAT sure about this, but here is what I THINK we decided:

     

    If a compressor is used, for example as a part of a water chiller, then it's thought if as a type of phase change unit, and therefore goes into the extreme cooling category. AC units are exceptions to that rule... I thiiiiiink :D They're usually just used to cool the room to decent ambients anyway, and we have to draw the line somewhere. Having an AC unit in a room is a very passive way of using it, but of course, if you can use them to get -20c air blown directly on a heatsink... it's a bit different.

     

    We could to not have the enthusiast league at all... We can't verify all cooling solutions or prove what's correct and not, unless it's REALLY obvious. Common sense and trust are key in the enthusiast league ;)

     

    Thanks for the answer.

     

    I was expecting a few more comments to draw from but here goes. The first three examples are dependent upon air temperature, so would it be acceptable to assume that the medium being used to remove the heat was the deciding factor, or artificially cooled air Yes, water No.

     

    Taking example 3 from the first post and replace the nature cooled air by creating a recycling loop with an AC unit’s evaporator(I've seen examples of this in the mid -20c), as long as new warm air was blocked from entering the cycle it would negate the need for board prep, creating the same benching environment present in the example.

     

    Looking at this as cold clamite, warm climate.

    You live here

    Stanley.jpg

     

    1, Computer outside on a table, air cooled, winter

     

    2, Computer outside on table, liquid cooled (glycol added, fan on the rad), winter

     

    3, Computer inside, outside winter air ducted through box, cooled by example 1 or 2

     

    4, Live in warmer climate, use ac in closed environment to cool air, cooled by example 1 or 2

     

    5, Live in warmer climate, use ac as liquid chiller

     

    6, CPU cooled by single phase.

     

    Some form of glycol is already present in the Corsair H series closed loop water coolers, where I live my average winter lows are Stanley’ average summer lows.

     

    Yea I know, just get in the OC league and don’t worry about it.

    Same problem as Don_Dan

     

    I have two submissions that won’t hw point up, the first one has been deleted twice and submitted three times. The second deleted once submitted twice.

    Recalc’d both got this

    How much you want to pay for HWBOT?

    As a hobby I voted up to fifty, nothing wrong with membership fees/dues but in realism how many of the members would of signed up if there was a fee imposed.

     

    If it was related to my income that's another thing.

     

    I did try to donate last month but backed away when I had to use PayPal, nothing against the service just another thing to keep track of and a true lack of knowledge on the service

    Wrong Catagory

    The following scores are in the wrong category. My card is DDR2, GPUz in use wasn't showing the correct specs at the time.

    This is a 3DMark score per the provided image.

    Should HWBot be divided into a two class structure?

    My two cents, base a system of scoring on experience and skill. Everything we do is something learned, from building our fist computer to setting up for a world record run. Create five levels, earn enough point you move on. Level one would be a catchall. After time in general the 4 remaining levels will be dominated by cooling type, with those with budget and skill passing trough. User points would be based on the system in place now, with the first place in each level gaining the same score 2nd etc. Team points, cups/metals and all other scoring would be based on the system in place.

     

    It's just an idea and probably already discussed.

     

    No problem with the way it is.
