placid Posted June 3, 2014 Posted June 3, 2014 Ask : Kabini Catzilla 576P Stage The rule said : Only use processors based on the Kabini core. (no GPU specified) Is only used integrated GPU ? Quote
Massman Posted June 4, 2014 Author Posted June 4, 2014 Oh, you are right. I completely forgot to add that limitation. Â Doing it right now, hope it doesn't upset anyone Quote
Massman Posted June 4, 2014 Author Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Oh, it's full out. You can use any amount of graphics cards! Edited June 4, 2014 by Massman Quote
skulstation Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Oh, it's full out. You can use any amount of graphics cards! Â funni thing is i don't find a am1 bord whit 2 pci-e slots or more,do i mis somting ? Quote
I.nfraR.ed Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 Full out is not interesting I really hoped to be an igpu only stage. Now I have to buy a bigger board, instead of mini-atx and I think the platform loses its charm this way... Â Plus it is easier to sell the mini-itx afterwards, because everyone is looking for these boards and not the bigger ones. Quote

Dead Things Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 SC2, Stage 2 - Is it 3DMark2001 SE or 3DMark03? Quote
Crew Strunkenbold Posted June 4, 2014 Crew Posted June 4, 2014 Now I have to buy a bigger board, instead of mini-atx and I think the platform loses its charm this way...  AFAIK there are no boards with support for SLI/CF.  Otherwise, making this fullout would make this stage cpu limited like the 3DM01 K6 stage. Very interesting though. Cheap platform also. 60-70€ for cpu+board. Quote
Rasparthe Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 SC2, Stage 2 - Is it 3DMark2001 SE or 3DMark03? Â This please ^^, the stage says 3DMark01 in the title but on the stage page it says 3dMark03 Quote

Very interesting though. Cheap platform also. 60-70€ for cpu+board.  Yes, but the one I was going to buy has one x4 PCI-E slot. I'm not even sure how cpu-bound it would be, but if we need a high-end gpu on this very cheap platform... it's a big "NO" for me. I'm not even sure if it supports x16 PCI-E.  PS: So the APU only supports x4. Edited June 5, 2014 by I.nfraR.ed Quote
skulstation Posted June 5, 2014 Posted June 5, 2014 i assume HW released after 01/06/2014 is not alowed Quote

There is no meaning of kabini. I hope purely igpu fight Edited June 6, 2014 by Kotori Quote
Luebke Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 because it would be cpu-limited it is imho indeed a meaning of kabini. for exsample: if u have a better kabini but only a 7970 u might get better results as if u have a bad kabini-sample but a gtx780 ti Quote
Luebke Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) ok in case of gt610 it wouldn´t be cpu-limited bei kabini  it doesn´t really matter to me because i don´t have a kabini, but i´m courious how much power it might have in case of full-out Edited June 6, 2014 by Luebke Quote
VSG Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 i assume HW released after 01/06/2014 is not alowed  Why not? That would disqualify a lot of the flagship 290x/780 Ti GPUs. Quote
skulstation Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Why not? That would disqualify a lot of the flagship 290x/780 Ti GPUs. Â the 290x/780 ti was released and availabla befor 01/06/2014 Quote
VSG Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 the 290x/780 ti was released and availabla befor 01/06/2014 Â Reference models, yes. But something like the 780 Ti KPE or the MSI 290x Lightning was not. Where do you put the line? Quote
GENiEBEN Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 Reference models, yes. But something like the 780 Ti KPE or the MSI 290x Lightning was not. Where do you put the line? Â I think you're reading the date in american format. Neither implementations where released in the last 6 days of this month AFAIK. Quote
Crew Don_Dan Posted June 6, 2014 Crew Posted June 6, 2014 i assume HW released after 01/06/2014 is not alowed  Wait for Massman's confirmation, but I'm pretty sure that this is correct. Any hardware released after the beginning of the competition is not allowed.  Reference models, yes. But something like the 780 Ti KPE or the MSI 290x Lightning was not. Where do you put the line?  01.06.14 is the line.  Please remember that 01.06.14 is the first of June. Quote
VSG Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 lol serves me right! To think I spent over 20 years going DD/MM/YY too. Quote
GENiEBEN Posted June 8, 2014 Posted June 8, 2014 lol serves me right! To think I spent over 20 years going DD/MM/YY too. Â Partially our fault too, it should be more like 01/JUNE/2014 to accommodate all users. Quote
Massman Posted June 9, 2014 Author Posted June 9, 2014 I will add this clarification to the competition pages. Â Hardware for this contest MUST BE released before June 1. Quote
Tech Tweaker Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 This competition page needs revision/clarification: http://hwbot.org/competition/team_cup_2014_sc2/stage/1432_amd_s939_single_core_nv8000,9000_3dm01/  At the top of the page it says "HWBOT Team Cup 2014 - SC2: GPU Challenge - 3DMark03."  Then, below that it says " Stage: AMD S939 Single Core NV8000,9000 3DM01 open - 81 days to go."  In the stage details it says "Stage Details  3DMark03 is open until 31 August 2014."  So, which benchmark should be run and submitted under for this stage, 3DMark01 or 3DMark03?
