  1. Thanks massman! I found it again! =) Some times it can be confusing not having all rules in one place. One of these day RBUASS almost made me crap my pants saying that maybe the wall paper for each benchmark could be slightly different and I was running the benchs without picking the one of each page =P Hwbot has its tricks... Every MOA I applied I saw people being disqualified due these small tricks..
  2. Exactly! Hey I can't find the system info rule anymore. Can anyone share the link to it? As far as I've looked by my self there's no restriction on disabling it.
  3. Yeah, I noticed that already... I took that care of that on my backups, It's a valid HWBOT score but don't has the sysinfo enabled. I saw that rule few days after posting it. I won't change that score because of boints for now, but I'm aware that in the end it won't count for MOA. I'll post another one later. Thanks again for the advice.
  4. We had it discussed and we couldn't get to a point so we preferred to open the discussion to the community. I thought that it's one competition from the begging to its ends, just with one special thing to avoid sandbaggers that everybody should post scores until May 4th, from there only the best 15 will continue to be able to post new scores but the old scores continue being valid and the ranking would be the same like it was before. We had this point of disagreement due to the competition points shown on the right bar, where says that the first place will get 20points and so on. That ranking being shown there made some of us think that before the May 4th points would be (60/25/15) and after that, a new contest would start between the top 15 where the scores would be that one on the right bar (20 for first place). I just want to have anyone from the hwbot stuff clarifying the rules. I know that its written there, but it's an americas' competition so the majority of allowed people to take place don't have English as native language and our educational system doesn't care about that at all. I think that a little explanation could let us really glad. Thanks!
  5. Thanks for the answer. In fact it's not a super tweaked OS, but its a bug that I've been facing using 1155 cpus and the CPU-Z on windows 8.. but ok, I'll stick with the old xp. Thanks!
  6. I got a question: On my best OS for SPi stage, the cpu-z doesn't show correctly the bus speed, so besides I got the correct multiplier, vcore, motherboard infos, RAM timmings, etc, the clock speed and RAM speeds are wrong. Can I use other software to show the correct speed with CPU-Z (requested by the rules) or even better can I simply use CPU-z even it shows the wrong clock? The rules say that CPU-Z is mandatory, I'll use it, but I want to avoid issues since it cannot show all of the settings correctly. Thanks
  7. This one can't =( and it doesn't like cold... But there's more CPU coming, maybe I find a better one =) Thanks!
  8. How do I get a verification link to spi32m? I was reading the rules and got this confusion... thx
  9. I wish we had fair taxes here in Brazil. I've worked months to be able to get those hardware. we pay double+shipping. It would be great if Colombia has gone in a fair way with hardware. But it seems really hard to believe. I wish Americas had more spots on ww finals, but let's fight for what we've got.
  10. The PS is the best! LOL I'm on that way too, but bankruptcy left me no binned cpu options... I think the wise choice for me will be teaming up... So let's see.. this year it will be tough... Getting started:
  11. It just the vgpu mod, ocp kicks in at 1.466v (with my $20 voltmeter), so I used 1.460v. Good card, but it won't match the lightnings Thanks CjBA! Let's keep pushing!
  12. I don't know if all qualifiers will be the same (usually it's not), the american qualifier will be composed of three benchmarks, in each of them you get different scores depending on the ranking position that you achieve. After that you sum the scores obtained in all three rankings and you get a final ranking. Top three in this final ranking at the Americas will qualify for the worldwide finals. the 4th and 5th places will get prizes and two lucky OCers will receive prizes too.
  13. I'm not complaining but since there's no regionals it could be five teams of each online qualifier. Anyway time to bench a lot and have tons of fun! =)
  14. When will the official wallpaper be published?
  15. It's cool that we won't have Ivys, only north america would receive any retail in time to compete. but it is another year that americas will qualify using a different rig, I really hope that can change in the future..
  16. Is there already the official competition wallpaper?
  17. No ivys, but also no Z77 MSI motherboards on the contest?
  18. I posted some times the same as you, I think as Futuremark the bot should have a separate ranking, with no global points or only mvp global boints that don't mess up with current leagues but allows OCers to keep their records for comparison with "normal people". Anyway, I saw In a lot of places that hyperperformance only works at I-mode, but I only have it working at D-mode, (tryed Z68 and Z77 with different cpus)... In fact, it only boosted heaven and 3d11 at D-mode, all other benchs got worse scores.
  19. I didn't get one thing: you've said that is a team competition, right? So how is the score calculated? The teams need a minimum number of submissions or just the best is taken for the final score? Every one who submits a score if the team wins will receive prizes? I've read the rules again and again and I still don't get it. Thanks!
  20. I got huge boost at heaven As I see, obviously you cannot compare them. As start it should be taken separately from the rankings... but I don't know.. if everybody wants to ban it, so be it... we use at reviews but not for competing... I still think that it could have hardware points apart from the non mvp.. It will have little effect if no one uses and it won't take boints away from those who don't use.
