But ... I can see the yellow letters at 1:22 ...

Why do you still believe Lapinoux' run is not with OC Genie enabled?

MSI repeated the 4GHz run in HQ, with enabling OC Genie.

Okay, now the APAC tour is really getting started! Participants from AU/NZ are known: Deanzo and Uncle Fester will be defending the Australian flag in the APAC final later this year. Both had Vantage running at 1350MHz+ Scores Deanzo: http://3dmark.com/3dmv/3122007 Uncle: http://hwbot.org/community/submission/2161911_ Congrats boys!!

Okay, thank you for passing by. See you next year!

MSI is checking it out now.

Clon22 has made a correct CPU-Z submission. It's not obligatory to also make SuperPI-32M score.

I still don't understand what is wrong with that video.

The system has to reboot after pressing OC Genie button before the settings are applied. You can see that Lapinoux pressed OC Genie button, then saved settings and reboot. OC Genie is enabled.

The OC Genie feature does not store 'default' overclocking settings for each CPU, but is actually testing the system's overclocking capabilities. The main key to get higher overclockers through OC Genie is by making sure the BCLK limit is pushed further. This can be done by using subzero temperatures. Also, using the wrong kit of memory can reduce the OC as OC Genie sets the BCLK and then checks if the memory can handle it.

Yeah, we've been having some issues. Perhaps because we are running the R3, R4-test1 and R4-test2 servers . Hopefully, the issues will be solved when taking down the test servers when rev4 airs.

So ... everyone is accusing the other guys of cheating ... :-/

SoF is bringing his tinfoil hat to the meeting! MDTek ... changing your nationality to USA won't really help. In here, we dislike all cheaters regardless of their nationality!

No. We can of course make some changes to punish OCF in particular

Dude ... there is so much wrong with that screenshot I thought you divided by 0.

There are very, very few major shocks in the rankings. For instance, in the current implementation (let's say v0.9) only 2 teams drop out of top-20 and all(!) top-10 teams are still in top-10. Like I said, this is still subject to small change, but I'd say it's good to see that the top teams are still top with the new concept of Team competition (where 90% of points come from powerteam rankings). The user league might be a bit more spectacular as more weight has been put on scoring gold in highly competitive rankings. For instance, MTP04's recent slam dunk in the GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB ranking will help pushing for top-30.

Oh, ok, I see. Too bad you can't get the ram running. Are you using Hyper? I think many boards have issues with memory (except maybe for M4E, which seems okay for most kits). It depends from kit to kit also; I heard people running Dominator GT hyper fully stable at decent clock and latencies and Supertalents requiring a lot more voltage to do the same frequency/timings.

What's the issue exactly? The lack of P67 BIOS? Or the many (unresolved) issues with the boards? Or that Gigabyte now also makes Z68 BIOSes? If it's the many unresolved issues that is making you angry, it's very understandible that you would change mainboard brand next generation

It's not because they have a Z68 BIOS that they will never update the P67 BIOS anymore ...

This week, we finetuned the HWBoint algoritm slightly. Will be pretty much like this. Note that we still need to add the competition points to the user league and the algoritm is still prone to small optimisations.

A SuperPI-32M submission is only valid if there is a CPU-Z submission too. So, you can use 680 for CPU-Z, but if you want to use 870 for 32M, you also need to submit 870 CPU-Z.

Oh, my apoligies. My brain couldn't handle making "amount of competitions" variable. It's fixed to 1/month

You can make ... 4 submissions. 2x with 870, 2x with 680. In both cases, 32M must be with the same frequency as CPU-Z.
