Got it, so it really doesn't matter which generation, just how many HW points you get. Makes sense now.
The last few years Country Cup has been that each person can only contribute once per stage, I'm assuming it will be the same this year but we should get clarification to that effect.

Correct Lanbonden:
- GTX 770 -> GeForce 700 series
- GTX 680 -> GeForce 600 series
So if it's by numbered families then the 10 most recent are: 900 (and Titan X), 800M, 700 (and Titan), 600, 500, 400, 300M, 200, 9000 and 8000, right? I'm assuming the mobile GPUs are allowed since it doesn't say otherwise. But high-end 7000 would likely trump 300M anyway, wouldn't it?
- GTX 770 -> GeForce 700 series

@Massman given the uncertainty it would be great to get a statement that the OC Formula and the XPower are explicitly allowed.
-
MM need update on Asrock OC Formula. Legal or not?
-
Sorry gents, bot won't let me add this to the sub now that the comp's closed, but here's the pic:
-
Monster sub man! AGP WR! Nice work.
-
I'll repost a pic of the sodimm in the adapter when I get home from work, will add to sub to make it clear.

Check SPD tab, TASOS. It's Samsung OEM PC3-10600S SO-DIMM, you can search the part number online. Adapter for standard 240-pin slot, you can see it in the screenie if you look closely
-
But hey if it's all just for the love that's cool too
-
Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place but any updates to the overall comp? All the pages still say, "soft launch, more info coming August 1," well now it's almost Sept 1.
Any updates on prizes etc? -
Dude. That is AMAZING.
-
Now THAT is dedication folks!
-
Well well well, what a great idea. Too bad no one else has taken advantage of it yet
- ON NCP5388 (datasheet) - used on certain models of EVGA 9800 GTX+ (512-P3-N871-AR and 512-P3-N884-AR; model 512-P3-N873-AR uses Primarion)

All stages are open, except first 2 and we have just 5 days left
Other subcompetitions open next year, but the final ends in 5 days too
-
Looks like July 15?
Word.

We are now also looking in to a different problem: 95% of the Novices and Rookies are not part of an overclocking team. I want to resolve this as soon as possible.
Massman any ideas for getting those Novices and Rookies involved? I know that when I was contacting even pretty experienced people via PM to recruit for Country Cup, many times I only heard back very late, or not at all. I feel like many of them don't know these forums exist or spend very little time here, so it's tough to steer them into a team via personal contact. Are there other ways of doing it early in the process?
And any updates on a TC start date?

Just came across this too and had one other thought for people transitioning to Extreme. You could allow Enthusiasts a small number of subzero subs (say, 5, for example) before they get moved up, without shaking up the overall league structure. These would contribute to league ranking just as anything else until they crossed a threshold number. A few subs would give them (us!) a chance to try it out and post some scores before going all in.
On the other hand I see Mr.Scott's point and would add that because the cost, time and knowledge barriers are so huge for a lot of people, taken in that context, getting knocked back down to the bottom rung in Extreme when you move to subzero just seems like par for the course, and even fitting. And you could make a strong case that it's unfair for Enthusiast guys who will never try subzero to be up against others in the same league who could put up north of 100 or even 200 points easily with just a few choice LN2 subs.
-
^^^ Ditto.
@Johan45, for Extreme and Elite it's just all BYOH, right? I'm wondering if there's any info on hardware for the Amateur World Series.
-
Top 5 names for an old school OC comp in no particular order:
1. My grandma stole my Core i7
2. The dotcom bubble memorial open
3. Down the K7 hole
4. U can take your EFI and shove it
5. SSE Smackdown
I'm with Rasparthe, Aleslammer and others on some kind of CPU-bound AGP stage; at the very least no K10 or Core 2?
-
All set now. Hit recalc today and it worked as it should. Thanks everyone!
-
Should be all good now. I hit recalculate today and now everything has updated.
-
Awesome! See you there!
Will we be allowed to use any outside hardware or software for the world series comp, or will everything be standardized and available there?
-
Seems like it may have been a raft of subs after the last software update that did not behave normally? When I go to my points tab on my profile page, all of my recent subs are there with the appropriate points, but they just are not reflected in my league points total and ranking. I just put in a more recent DDR clock score last week and the points updated normally.
