  1. fake.Benchmark tessellation load modified by AMD Catalyst driver, result invalid. Check your video driver settings.

     

    OMG!!!!!! OMG!!!!! I call for ban, how can he disable benchmark tessellation settings. Seriously on hwbot, we should all run Stock Clocks and settings, that will be the actual comparison......BTW how the hell did you figure it out??? You are a real genius

  2. we will see for next proof, maybe he will try again in superpi, if superpi run will be about 10-10.5s at 8500 MHz, I have no problem believe 9 GHz validation.

    Between FX are very big diferences, at air some can hit only 4500-4550 MHz stable, but there are few over 5000 MHz stable. The same with LN2, worst of these hit only 7000-7200 MHz, the best over 8500 MHz.

     

    How many over 8500 Mhz FX chips have you seen????

  3. new batch, good position at waffer, luck, this all aspects can be possible...We need Andre Yangs old good one chip. His FX hit "easily" over 8500 MHz, I believe for answer from him :)

     

    There is simply no comparison between the 2 chips. One hits 8.55Ghz, another 9.1Ghz. Difference of 600Mhz. And if you see the video, that will redefine the word 'easy' for overclockers.

  4. yeah I agree G that it should either be out in the public or not at all, i just dont think its Massman/hwbot responsibility to provide it to contestants

     

    Nobody said its Massman/hwbot responsibility to provide it to contestants. But what I/others have said is that its sort of their responsibility to check with MSI about how to get the software in the right hands to keep the playing field fair.

  5. I can't read it right now, I'm at work, but let's point out a thing that I wrote you in my first PM.

    I'm not mad at you, we're trying to ASK you to let us know something and report to MSI our complaints.

    We're not giving you the responsibility of MSI behavior... that said, if you can intercede and take them our arguments, it would be great, as we're all stuck at 1,3v. :(

     

    QFT

     

    You're absolutely correct. The MOA qualifiers are a cooperation between MSI and HWBOT. Cooperation means that HWBOT has some say in the organisation, but not full and complete say in everything. The AB Extreme distribution is something that is not even related to the MOA competition; it's being handled by a completely different team within MSI.

     

    Like I said ... I'm not a magicworker.

     

    //edit: as all this 'fairness' talk is concerned, you might want to read this: http://hwbot.org/news/the_paradox_of_a_fair_competition

     

    As Iron said, if MSI denies your request (or has already denied) then I guess it becomes individual participants responsibility to get hold of the software but you should atleast try and get hold of the right contact (and you know its not that hard) who can authorize you to distribute the software through PM or likes OR Deny you to become such a middle man and ask you to provide the right contact person within MSI to participants OR to say no to such requests straightaway

     

    But your earlier response was more like shrugging off the responsibility that you hold as hwbot/MOA Admin.

  6. I have no control over the release of AfterBurner and I cannot magically change MSI's policies on it. They make custom versions and hand it to xtreme overclockers they trust with the software. I can recommend people, or give additional background info when they ask me "who is this", but I do not have any final say in anything.

     

    If you don't want the software from anyone else, then hardmod the card.

     

    Since you are the liaison between MOA participants/hwbot and MSI, shouldnt it automatically become your responsibility to get AB extreme for the participants to make the competition fair to all who do not have direct contact with MSI?????

     

    What I feel, you are currently saying is, its not your responsiblity, And its your(interested participants) choice whether you want to participate in the competition or not.

     

    P.S. I do have access to AB Extreme and to MSI representative, but if I did not, then I really would have felt grossly being treated unfair.

  7. anyone know where the last 3 seats are coming from? I know that 4th and 5th got an email

     

    "We will do our best for the nice overclocking product and event. Please pay attention for the schedule of the WW selection for the last fighting! Maybe see you in Grand Final. Here come the DHL tracking number for you"

     

    I tried running it through engrish defragger but got nothing back...

     

    AFAIR for the last 2 years, MSI has tied up with Futuremark as well for a Global Competition with 2 or so seats to MOA(Maybe its 3 this time)

  8. Killed mine, due to my stupidity. Left the Power on, after a disappointing session. Currently soaking in Rice for the last few days....Maybe will test out today.

     

    But ofcourse Intel can not do anything about the above stupidity.

  9. My only complain is that whenever a competition comes to hwbot, the prize pool become negligent.....I wonder why???? MOA has been known to compensate well winners of specific country/continent but do not know whether its the recession or something else which is the cause of the drop in prizes.....

     

    PS. Please feel free to move the thread if this is not the right thread to discuss it.

  10. Though ofcourse since you guys are being honest we/I should not be asking any noobish questions but benching together for a competition where is the test of skills in there???? Only 1 guy needs to figure out the settings, tweaks, mobo behavior (these can be shared online as well, but not everything can be passed on online) and everyone else will have to figure out just their individual CPU and GPU quirks (but then thats not a biggie I guess)

     

    Ah well, Not that I can blame you guys, you have the option, sadly in India no1 else is playing LN2, :(
