    The official HWBOT Team Cup 2018 - SC4: DDR4 thread.

    [Quote] I made this argument to leeg before the competition started - it is on the same package as the CPU, but is connected with PCIe 3.0 x8 (over EMIB rather than the motherboard but still) and exclusively uses its own HBM rather than system memory. The only IGP-like thing about it is the shared power management. Apparently it's allowed, and we get a lot of people with different hardware on /r/overclocking so we easily found a user willing to bench it competitively. As a result, however hard you OC no-one without Vega M will be able to touch our score for that stage. I think Skull Canyon NUCs start at $700 for the OC locked Vega M GL version (DDR4 SODIMMs sold separately), have fun. Alternatively since afaik no-one has gone out and bought one for the comp I'd still totally support them being retroactively banned. We have to take advantage, if we don't someone else will, but it's not how I wanna win stage[Quote] only asking as I did not know if they are acceptable or not. Good going, I hope OCN can find a couple of users with the RX vega M. :thumb:.

    calm down kids, the idea is to make sure all the rules are clear up front.

    in case you loud mouths didn't notice, several folks subbed 8086K results into the Div1Rd2 competition.  This is supposedly not permitted, yet there they are.  Look and stop fuckin shouting dimwit.

    (and too bad you got dog ES cpus from the manufacturers, lol)

    out

    No ES CPUs, GPUs or motherboards allowed at all , no matter the age, generation,...

    thanks... can't use an ES CPU in  DDR4 Stage 5,  GPU score only I gather - bummed?

    So... No HOF GPUs either (can you actually buy these, retail)?  Only gear available retail on/before Day 1 of start - right? (avoid sheet like in Div1Rd2)
