  1. Yup, that's a Radeon 9000 series graphics card!
  2. The Team Cup launch hasn't been super smooth, sadly enough. Before competitions like this would all be arranged by one or two people, but now what we're expanding the staff and getting more people involved in the discussion and launch of competitions, we sometimes get out of sync. The artwork is ready, the stages almost, ...
  3. Soon more information on prizes and other things. You guys will be pleasantly surprised I think!
  4. Well, it's a job in a global enterprise. Not a field trip holiday with friends
  5. For those who enjoy information, XTU was affected by this RTC bug/feature (depends if you ask Microsoft) in every version before v4.2.0.8. Intel changed the timer to HPET and since then Windows 8/8.1/10 are all fine to be used with XTU
  6. I see from the dev backlog that they are trying to fix it
  7. Is it possible that the person who has submitted the DDR2 result already submitted another (higher) result? The key point about the Novice Nimble is that you need 3 people contributing a result to the ranking. The engine will select your best result as the one that counts for the team. So if you have 15K DDR4 and 12K DDR2, the engine takes into account the 15K score (even if you don't have a DDR2 for the team yet).
  8. It should now be possible to submit with the GTX 560 Ti 448!
  9. Can you give a link to your submission ?
  10. Hi Meankeys, - The R9 295X2 is a dual GPU graphics card, and for this competition only 1xGPU (single gpu) graphics cards are allowed - Missing round 1 doesn't disqualify you from round 2, so you can still participate!
  11. The lucky draw winners were announced in the news item: http://oc-esports.io/#!/article/2871/gigabyte_z97_x99_big_xtu_challenge_ends_coldest_goes_to_taipei
  12. Hey guys, Just want to let you know that there's a job opening at ASUS HQ for the position of technical marketing manager. They're looking for an enthusiast to fill the position, so I figure why not let you guys know and see if anyone's interested. From the looks of it, they're mainly looking for someone to drive the ROG community + help explain technical stuff to the market. The focus seems to be gaming, but that links together with modding/overclocking/... I reckon. If you've been active in community or have written reviews/articles, it might be a good opportunity. Note that you'll have to move to Taiwan and that you will be working in the Taiwanese work environment and corporate culture. If interested, drop me a message in PM and I'll forward the contact information. :celebration: Some details: Position: Senior Technical marketing and Social Communication manager (PC Gaming, PC Products, not including Mobile Products) Job Scope: Lead ASUS ROG Global online community presence, working alongside global marketing team and regional teams.

  13. http://www.evga.com/articles/00928/EVGA-High-Performance-Memory/ Interesting ...
  14. No, you'll need either GeForce 4 or Radeon 9000 series
  15. this is all old news
  16. We have included the GTX 560 Ti for the competition so you can use that card to compete. The GTX 750 Ti will be a better choice, though
  17. We noticed there was a small problem with the points in the 3D stages (instead of x2 it was /2), but that is now fixed!
  18. 03 is fine for the moment since it's still scaling (a little bit) with multi-gpu. As a general rule of thumb we can disable the WR points as a fix for a benchmark once 1xGPU is the optimal choice for WR.
  19. There's no reason why we should feel bad using ABX to push our old GTX480, GTX580, HD5870s on LN2. In fact, it should be celebrated.
  20. Boom! It's been a while seeing KP on 3rd place in the last-gen FM bench
  21. I asked this question a while ago, but it would be pretty nice if we could just share the afterburners for the EOL cards. Warranty doesn't matter anymore anyway ...
