  1. AFAIK, rev4 makes my team top 5 if not better. IT also make my contribution to the team meaningless.

     

    You might contribute to your team. does that mean that those that are not top 5 guys are no longer worthwhile? Why have them on the team? Should it become NASCAR? totally corporate sponsored?

     

    Easy to say now that you will include them, in a year ... only time will tell.

     

    AFAIK Rev4 makes a whole bunch of PUREs. Creme de la creme, not busting on PURE, just saying they are the thing to shoot for. They are going to have to break up to 4 teams minimum. Top 4 remains to be seen.

     

    I think if a team is organized a bunch of guys will get together and say OK i have this this and this, what do you have?

     

    So for instance a bud of mine has a matrix 4870, I have only a reference.......well heck dude you tackle that class your matrix has way more potential.

     

    I save ln2, I can focus on another class where my cards will have more potential.

     

    When you bench for a hw specific class in rev 4 you truly are repping your team, thats the way I see it. Our team has already gotten together and said hey ok you have this and this and this, I have this and this and this.

     

    Lets figure out whats best then divvy it up ;)

     

    My anaylsis for rev 4?

     

    Teams win, manufacturers lose. No need for a team to buy 20 samples of a 580 GTX + 990X to be competetive to spam the latest HW class for points anymore.

  2. rev4 won't be sad :)

     

    Absolutely it won't be sad, those 2 scores were in preperation of rev 4. We knew the highest would count the most so we tried to get the highest possible we could for our team with what we had at our disposal ;)

  3. So does intel cherry pick retail chips for benchers?

     

    This chip straight from intel marketing.

     

    L051B170 0586 53X, didn't waste time testing further other than to jump multis just in case.....

     

    Oh and to put a # to my 5664mhz L041C108 4323

     

    Also we forgot to add all the junk from L041C108, forget the numbers but the count is 10 chips 53X to 54X

  4. Honda buys his own hardware. He will bench with me on some weekends when we split the cost of a 230L Dewar, we do not share hardware.

     

    Nothing wrong with sharing cpu's mobos for 3d which is what I was referring to travis, which is also why I didn't quite understand the complaint.

     

    I'm only going by what you told me personally about testing a few chips with him for 3d.

     

    I think my above post was misinterpreted.

     

    So bottom line what I meant to say is if you share cpu's boards for 3d why complain if someone else does, thats all. I know other teams do, they even say so, nothing wrong with it.

     

    Hell I sent my own personal 980X and R III E ( from OC summit winnings ) around to XS to bench 3d on, the only difference really is the chip sucked, people only complain when the chip is good.

  5. this is just an example...not real situation...

     

    a good cpu..like msimax's 2600k

     

    and two 5870s....

     

    are you ok if two guys benefit from the super cpu?

     

    Like it matters, if I didn't have his cpu and I had my 100 mhz less cpu with a better IMC + ln2 I would blast my own score which I intend to do anyway. Unless of course you don't think I can do it.......

     

    Also to "team bench" costs money, 3 hour+ ride, gas, rental or bus ticket. Not to mention we pooled money together for our cpu's till we found decent one's.

     

    Last I read to share a cpu in a 3d bench is completely legit so I don't even see why this was even brought up.

     

    Anyway thats the whole purpose of rev 4, so that teams can't dominate top 5 in a ranking, a xeon class comes to mind.......

     

    Don't you bench with Travis and share his errr I mean ASUS's cpu's boards etc etc ;)

  6. Hey massman.

     

    Lets start requesting default VID of batches along with the other info :) just becasue a chip has a decent multi doesn't make it good.

     

    Also have a hunch that within certain batches multi is tied into VID somehow ;)

     

    2600K L050A933 2210 54 X not 5.4 wprime 1024 stable.

     

    2600K L042B208 4508 51X didn't waste my time.

     

    2500K L046B078 2573 52X seems to be very decent for 24/7 low vid, 1.325 bios set LLC L2 4800 prime stable

     

    EDIT more chips from my bench partner

     

    2600K

    L041C108 2350 5.4

    L041C108 3832 5.5
