  1. example.... a user can only submit results with the 8600GT if they're in the Enthusiast league.

     

    Once a series of hardware has the names released, HWB could pick one or two in advance and say "Enthusiast league only" that way, the decision is impartial. A card isn't picked that OCs like crap or has random behaviour.... sometimes an awesome card will become air/water only.... sometimes a dog of a card will

    Ridiculous.:P

  2. Again, water is water. There is no possible way to verify the temp of said water. Even with a picture included, you cannot possibly tell the temp of the water inside the loop.

     

    Now, that being said, if you have the means and skills to dry ice a water loop, there's no reason for you to be in the enthusiast league is there?, so basically you're just looking to skirt the rules and steal some undeserved points.

     

    There is an honesty/integrity factor involved with the enthusiast league for just this reason.;)

  3. the current rules I better have a i5 2500k @5Ghz and 8800GT than a i7 2600k @5.5Ghz and 2x 6990.....this is be enthusiastic?.....These rules require us to be buying old hardware to have good points......please, rename Enthusiast League to Museum League =D

    There IS an alternative..........the OC league. Ohhh, that's right, you don't bench sub zero. Newsflash: Dice is a lot cheaper than the hardware you're benching. There's no excuse.

  4. I notice a lull in the conversation now. I'll finish it for you.

    You: "but that would be against the rules to chill the water to sub ambient temps".

    Me: "Ahh...but water is water right?, and unless you can actually look at the picture of my system that I'd have to submit, and tell the temp of the water in the loop from it, you wouldn't know if it was 1c or 31c, and that 30c less temp might just be enough to maybe take that WR right away from you, and maybe some of your other points too".

    You: "it's not fair"

    Me: "oh yes it is. Maybe we should change the rules".

     

    See where I'm going here? It's a slippery slope my friends. Be careful what you wish for.

  5. Sorry Man ... but i dont live in BRAZIL at 10 years ...im live in JAPAN ..

    .. it was some work to achieve these results...

    Nice. I spent 4 years in Japan. Not disputing the results at all, it's great.

    Tell you what, If the rules change for the Enthusiast league, I'll ditch my Dice scores and move down to the EL with you guys. I'll only use my water chiller. Think that would be fair?
