  1. Does this also mean 3 different AMD cpus? Or would it be okay to do all 3 subs with a 1950x for example so long as gpus are different?
  2. Exactly, I don't see anyone complaining that it's gonna end up being 2 gpu cores to make up 5 subs for gpupi.
  3. Really not sure the confusion here? Everything intel calls a kabylake i7 is a kabylake i7, everything they call a skylake i7 is a skylake i7 seems to make sense to me. If you want to try to beat a 4770k with a 5960x that's on your IMHO should be the same for x299 vs z170.
  4. Are you sure your system pic isn't too big? I usually have to put it in an image shrinker so it fits within the hwbot limit.
  5. Okay, so now that the comp is live the stage rules are on each stage page. However on for stage 1 is only says an intel cpu is required with no mention of cpu subfamiles. Also stage 5 has a requirement of: A videocard manufactured by 1. I'm not sure what it's 1 of, but might want to check on that. Also overview still implies there's a final stage after all 6 of these stages that involves multi-gpu (Copy Pasta FTW again!) Could you take a look at these @Massman ?
  6. They should be the same, look at how they're classified on hwbot. Both kabylake i7.
  7. Okay, thanks! That makes it crystal clear. Should be really fun this way.
  8. Wait, so are you saying that for the purpose of stage 1 a kabylake i7 counts as a different subfamily as a skylake i7? Or do you mean that you need a score from any i7, any i5, any i3, etc. ?
  9. At least you're halfway there
  10. Inb4 700 mhz fsb on a rex with good hypers.
  11. Hey man, you submitted your cpu clock as motherboard reference clock, may want to take this down and resub as a cpu frequency. Unless you're waiting to see if it gets taken down, in which case I can assure you it will.
  12. Hi, as country cup starts tomorrow I'd like to make sure that I know what each stage is and what is allowed before I buy any new hw. For stage 1 it 8 different intel cpu subfamilies. Does this mean i9, i7, i5, etc or is this generations like kabylake, skylake, haswell, ivy bridge, etc.? Then for stage 4 it needs 4 seperate gcn1 model gpus. So for example r9 280x, r9 280, 7970, and 7950 is good and we don't need seperate actual chips (tahiti xt, tahiti pro, tahiti le)? Also going along with that question is HD 8000 series allowed and are firepros allowed? Neither are server hw, and technically did retail although you could not buy hd 8000 outside of a prebuilt pc and firepro is enterprise workstation class even if it's not server hw. For stage 5 I assume vega is allowed. (not sure why it shouldn't be, just thought I'd make sure) The only other thing is on each of the actual stage pages they don't have any details about the stage except to list the end date, which is in December. However on the rules page everything is listed as ending in November. As well as the overview page still claiming the last stage is multi-gpu when it is not. (Copy paste FTW!) Kinda a long post with lots of questions, but I figured may as well get all this clarified early, especially if the end dates in the rules are the correct ones.
  13. CFR may be decent for a frequency run, but since there's also such a thing as mfr it's not nearly as useful anymore.
  14. I see you used the cpuz tweak for wprime
  15. Thanks for the thread, I was able to run xtu on my i5 3470 using the windows update.
  16. Not interested, but to clarify I'm pretty sure that's MFR if anyone is wondering on the IC. I have a similar kit of trident x and from how it clock plus what it's rated for should be 4gbit MFR. I bought it before I understood about things like psc, but it's still decent, especially if you need some ram density or want to go for high clocks but don't expect to tighten the timings at all, even at lower clocks. Because they're 8gb sticks at least it's dual rank.
  17. Hi, I'm trying to OC my 7700k and while it can do 5.8 ghz just fine on my phase change for legacy benchmarks anything with avx will cause it to power throttle to 3.8 ghz. I've made sure I have no avx offset and disabled everything that should limit it's power draw in bios however it keep throttling once any avx load is put on it. Doesn't matter if it's XTU, whycruncher, or CS:GO it will throttle down to 3.8 ghz rendering all core OC pointless for those benches. I'm on a maximus ix apex and I just cannot figure out what's going on. Can someone help me find what setting or jumper I'm stupidly missing that's causing it to throttle down? I'm on phase change so it's definitely not temperature.
  18. 1. Laptop cooling, especially on OEM laptops is barely enough. Undervolting lowers temps so it actually boosts higher. 2. In XTU on 4900mq just max the 4 core ratio then raise bclk if you can. After that mem OC if XTU has the option. On desktop it depends on platform. 3. OC cache as far as possible, you can try adding voltage but if you're thermally limited, which you are, then it may hurt more than help so you may have to try taking voltage. 4. That's because cpu is drawing too much power for it's rated tdp, if you have the option raise max amperage and that may help.
  19. Newegg has the Bristol Ridge APUs if that's what you're looking for.
  20. Were you able to get it to actually run at the 40x for XTU? I have the same board and it will run 40x multiplier, but during the XTU bench it locks to 38x.
  21. If this is for rog comp you might want to fix your screenshot.
  22. I'm ready, looks like it'll be a lot of fun!
  23. Those look like pretty good stages, personally I don't mind restricting to specific chips for each round as xeons and opterons are fairly cheap for me. Although I don't know how it is outside of US, hopefully it wouldn't be too hard to get specific cpus. Also it may help participation if the socket count is more of a limit than a requirement. For example if I have a kickass x58 board but no sr-2, I can still try to beat people with 12c/24t on sr-2's and hope I can clock 6c/12t high enough to make up for it. Also, are ES allowed? For a lot of these platforms that would be nice, especially on g34 with the unlocked opterons, although for example on lga 2011-3 I can understand banning it as there are ES 24c cpus that can be found, albeit rarely, so they'll crush for like cb15 vs the slightly more common retail max core count of 22c.
  24. The ones from china are usually reliable for me, you just have to wait a while. Not sure if you have to pay customs from china in france though, US we don't.
