Lol, didn't notice that until now

Canadians, I know you focus on us because we beat you on the finishline. But look at the aussies. They are very successful because they get together a whole group of people and share knowledge, hw (allowed), OS etc. What was mainly shared on our part was a 2600k system clocked at 5ghz. WR hardware? If you can't beat an old 2600k on watercooling maybe you should look at what you could do better instead of accusing us of cheating. We could have used my 6700k which runs 3d06 at up to 6250 (depending on OS) and that would be allowed. But lets save that for next year

Exactly what you sound like We follow hw-sharing rules. Isn't the whole idea of country cup to help each other out?

I think the idea is basically very good! But maybe not increase the points. Have to keep hw points relevant. Also agree with adjusting the threshold, and maybe slope, on hwpoints, with every generation hw points gets a bigger and bigger problem. Or maybe the lower threshold should be just for 3D? Another thing I have been thinking about that would be massively beneficial for all parties would be to get hwbot-integration of the next 3Dmark.

Hmm, strange it can make such a difference. Mine is broken though, tried it two more times, and also with the impact. Still maxes out at 5.2 Are there any other batches than X?

Very nice!

Very nice!

Good score! No sign of degradation? Maybe just my chip that was bad.

Yes, delidded

Thanks for sharing! Did you try full pot? I haven't had much problems at -165-170. I thought I would try this myself. I tried reseal with silicon based glue and it didn't work. Cracked around -175-180 the same as without reseal. Tried using tape to simulate reaseal also but contact was too bad. No crack with tape but was seeing positive core temps with pot around -100 so it was useless. I have also had some problems with gradually degradation of kryonaut when benching at -170. Works well for 30 min, then have to lower clocks about 100mhz. Then after perhaps 1,5-2 hours it cracks completely at -170. This could be a bad batch of kryonaut though, because my first tube didn't do this.

Ah, didn't notice you were using B-die until now...

Thanks, here it is from sofos: http://forum.hwbot.org/showpost.php?p=422045&postcount=86

Yes, the first stage is why I actually thought that the other stages would be a true average based ranking as well. It also says so in the rules... Only people who have been here a long time can suspect that it is first number of submissions and then average. This is the only major problem with hwbot in my opinion. The competitions are always unclear to say the least when it comes to rules. The rules are updated, changed, new rules are added. It is hard to find the new rules because they are buried somewhere deep down in a thread with 100 replies. Rankings are not working correctly in the beginning etc.

I have missed all results with B-die. Got any link?

Wow, nice chip! 3dmark01 200k+ now?

Maybe should give globals for single core geekbench since there are so few relevant single core benches for Skylake? (no SPI) Geekbench is actually fun since it's tweakable, ram impacts quite a lot, and you can play with different frequencies for the different subtests which require some skill if you bench alone.

Hehe, thanks!

A word of advice. I pushed 1.85-1.88v through my 6320 on ln2, just like i've been doing on my 6700ks. CPU got heavily degraded after just one hour of benching. Now it performs like 700mhz lower on ln2... Be careful with volts on these chips!

Yes, buying boring, useless hardware that doesn't even add significantly to the team average is a good idea for a competition... But if hwbot wants it this way, then thats fine. But state it in the rules! Is it the same case for stage 1? Nine 49.9p subs gets beaten by ten 0.1p subs? Come on... Save us the money for hardware and ln2 next time and let us know about the rules in advance so we can know if there is a point in competing or not.

No, 3200~/5 is not better than 2800+2200 etc/5...Always divide by maximum number of scores and there will be no problem.

Ranking for stage 4 is not correct it seems. Rules says ranking is based on average, but it is actually based on number of scores, then average. I know some competitions are meant to be this way but that is not logical for this stage. Average across five submissions, no score=0 points for that submission. It really hurts the teams which have no 1 core CPU...

Thanks all! Just a quick snipe of nr 1 extreme Will go back down with next recalculation... Mem speed is safe They can do at least 1940 MHz at those timings

Surely downclocked for screen? Congratz anyways!

Thanks! Going for some 6320 action tonight

4 dimm power!
