  1. Hi Gen

     

    I like the wrapper, the info in it is great and the integration is great, it is moving in the right direction, however the scoring is very inconsistent

     

    We played around last week with it, and from run to run we can see 20K variance, just re-running it can be 10K higher or lower.

     

    I think any further development on the wrapper should be to lighten it and improve the score consistency.

  2. exciting competition

     

    i like the fact gskill are doing something different, 10k prize money is very exciting for our hobby, imo having to fly yourself in to compete is fair enough, you want to win big you need to put it all on the line

     

    the benchmark choices and restrictions will also restrict the impact binned CPUs will have in the live final, you will need to combine all the big overclocking skills to win this, modding, clocking, tweaking, binning and do it all under pressure. the multi day format also lends itself to the most consistent overclocker, so even if you have a nightmare day, you still have the chance.

     

    good luck all

  3. LOL Dancop i guess everyone has different expectations to what is a good benchmark, for me this is a great benchmark

     

    this benchmark scales with many different hardware adjustments, likes clocks, scales with tweaks, IMHO this is a great benchmark, sitting in the same category as heaven, 3dmark01, 3dmark03, as benchmarks that can be attacked from many different angles, and it is extremely consistent for me, i get maybe 300 point variances in this bench, with vantage i get over 1k from run to run

     

    do we really want every benchmark just to be who has the best equipment? do people only like benchmarks like firestrike-e? in this day of no modding required, surely that only shows who bins the most equipment, nothing more
