    Nice Score Lucky Noob, because it is not fair for the Competition, you have a Review Site and become the Hardware from the Vendors, all the other Contender buy their Hardware.

    Hi, for competition like this I bought the CPU and the MB on local shops. It's not that much expensive motherboard(B350) and a sub 200-usd CPU, surely I believe there's a lot of people that have much more resources than us.

    We also don't complain that until today we don't have Z370N Wifi  (and still waiting to get one), and I'm still waiting to get a good 8700K because I don't have shops that offers pre-binned models like you have in German :)

     

    Hope that clears it up ;)

    G. SKILL OCWC 2018 benchmark concernings

    Maybe the major concern here was benching the IGP hard has a potential to kill more chips than benching CPU-only? (Not sure if this still happened on CFL, also this is a pro-class competition, so dying chips was normal risk us overclockers have to take).
    I don't mind IGP benches, did one time back in 2016 with 6700Ks. Would've been fine for me if the rules was unchanged, but I also open to discussions and concerns regarding the benchmark/rule and whether it was necessary to be changed in the end. 

    Waiting for decision then :)

    Looking at things, we already have:
    1) Mandatory Full-out DDR4 Mhz
    2) Full-out CPU Multicore (Geekbench 3)
    3) Full out CPU Single-Core (32M)

    If full-out IGP wasn't desirable, I agree that limited-clock CPU stage on a bench that relies heavily on memory could be a substitute, as long as we have a reliable monitoring system that's not really complicated (needing a video would be slightly too much), Futuremark Sysinfo worked for Galax GOC limited clock I guess? 

    So that's left us with 3DMark11 Physics, Time Spy Physics, or Time Spy Extreme Physics. (Fire Strike Physics doesn't really scale much with mem IMHO). If I have to suggest anything, I'd do Time Spy / Time Spy Extreme Physics since it was less used compared to 3D11 Physics.

    Lucky_n00b - Ryzen Threadripper 1950X @ 5187MHz - 4122 cb Cinebench - R15

    Yeah we're limited by the reference AMD boards, no doubt with board with better power we'll see better OC ;)

     

    Anyway, It is said that due to the Threadripper being top binned die, average parts are actually able to hit 4Ghz at 1.32V or even way lower, compared to the average-ish Ryzen 7 that needs 1.4V+ to hit same 4Ghz target. So Best Ryzen 7 parts should be 'average' TR parts (which explains their slightly more aggressive 4.2Ghz XFR bin on TR).
