I think without the L3014 that stage wouldn't be. But I agree that all server hw that has similar specs to desktop chips (intel pre lga 2011, AMD s939, etc) should be allowed.

If you're referring to them being slanted that's how all R6A boards are

Agreed, TSE uses 6+ gb of vram. Trying to run it on a 2 gb gpu is gonna be rng.

Why have I just ordered a gt 420 on ebay now? (hard to find a pci card)

qx9775 is consumer cpu on a server socket. Will leave it up to leeg to make the final determination.

gpupi 3.2 works just fine on this install for context

Hi! I'm having trouble getting 3.3 to run on my G470, I've tried a few different batch sizes as well as hwinfo detection levels and it still crashes on run. Attached is a screenshot and error logs, I can provide any other info that you need. @_mat_ HWiNFO64.DBG GPUPI.cfg

Why wouldn't it be? Reference frequency is a score for a motherboard. So socket would be determined by the motherboard used. Pretty sure it's always worked that way.

I can only assume it's to keep people from benching until tomorrow. Otherwise I know I'd already have something pulled down...

Bump, gonna give anyone who didn't see this yet a chance to vote then we'll start planning the meet/deciding if there'll be one.

Also don't think it ever got clarified what sockets are combined. Obviously 1151 is a single socket, but what about am3 and am3+ or am2 and am2+? Will they get combined?

Personally I would prefer not to see titans however I also would be fine with whatever decision is made.

@Leeghoofd Rules don't seem to specify that titan's are banned. So then can we assume that titan cards are allowed for all 3d stages?

Which is funny cause Vega M is actually polaris based while the APUs are Vega based...

If there's one thing I learned last year, it's that it wouldn't be a country cup without at least one benchmark that takes a minimum of 30 minutes per run and needs cold.

Not if it's divided by socket, and my understanding is that all 1151 is considered the same socket. So you could have 2x modern intel scores.

This is a fairly low priority but I've noticed that some results for android benches like pcmark are done on x86 pcs running an android emulator like remix OS. Is this allowed or not?

So less than 24 hrs until comp starts and still the comp page is a bit bare. Is it gonna be completed with all stages and limitations by start of comp? I ask because I have still half a dewar left from TC and want to get a running start over the weekend if possible. Would be nice to know what exactly I have to prep tonight.

I think that being able to join a team specifically for the comp is a great thing for those on smaller teams. Coming from a team that had a few people do just that I see nothing wrong with it. They definitely contributed and helped us achieve second but I don't feel that they're the reason for our ranking. If they had been the only ones to sub we would've ranked much lower. It was a combined effort of the whole team. I'm also for allowing new members to join a team mid comp, there's no reason not to allow this, and not just because it helps our team a lot. (definitely recruited a 2x titan x pascal system from reddit with 36 hours to go on the comp, among other hw nobody wanted to buy throughout the comp) I think that encouraging participation in comps in any way as long as validation rules and such are followed is always a good thing and will only help to grow the community.

correct, spd is only required for the mem freq stage

Rural craigslist is hit or miss, sometimes you find $80 sr2's but usually it's low end stuff at high end prices. Urban areas are a bit better, but only for finding decent stuff at great prices. That said every now and then I check Chicago craigslist (about 2-3 hours drive) since you never know what you'll find. That's how I got my SS, also found an F1 for sale once from a retired OCer who ended up selling me a decent ep45-UD3P

Yes, cheapest working MVE on US ebay is $325 obo ?

Damn, wish this was in the US. Need to start binning these boards as mine maxes at 110.6, even on a chip that did 112 on my old OCF

Well team cup is over and I see that the country cup page has been posted, kinda, any eta on when we can expect the full comp page with all finalized hw restrictions?

Great clocks for this chip!
