The official MSI MOA 2011 Americas Online pre-selection thread.

[Hondacity]

i agree with massman...

 

i think its a good competition...

[e-Killer]

Yes i didnt say it is a bad a competition, in fact i really like, in my case i have most Hw to have a chance to get a seat for NA regional but for other people or newcomers from here have no chance (or very low). Im not complaining about Cooling or using high-end hardware, in fact im complaining they mix the Qualifier of 2 different continent, where 1 have more access to HW. It is not about money as i say in my last post, its about avaibility of HW required to join most of the stages.

 

and lets say from another POV, EU have preselections of each Country and then have a really big Regional to fight for 5 tickets to Grand Final. At least they should make with 2 regions here (LA and NA) and then have the Regional.

you're right...lots of north americans might do better.

 

msi calendar is unknown..they're probably squeezing their calendar especially with ces...

 

massman

 

will there be an earlier notice for future competition? one month preparation is just not enough.

[CL3P20]

Good contest, great competition!! Glad to be a part of the fun!

and you are doing very well nice 01 run.

Thanks. Ive still got some real work to do though.. Romdominance has a nice gap in points for me conquer..and I suspect he is still capable of more himself! OCA puts out some tuff competition, but I wouldnt have it any other way. Competing against the best, is how we learn the most.

P386 for the H55 IGP comp. I'm so pro at IGP clocking x_x

[Splave]

do I get a prize for first death? X-power zipped off running 32m last night to never boot again.

It runs but no LED panel and no booting oh well good thing I have another sitting here ftw, ex boyscout always prepared rofl

[Gomeler]

Sure, I'll give you what will surely be the smoldering remains of an H55 motherboard. I have backup 655Ks but it might be a good idea to learn from your example and pick up a backup board.

[Massman]

P386? How is that possible?

[Splave]

chris haX

Pretty certain GT1 had negative FPS.

[Hondacity]

nah you were not the first death, actually i killed 1 980X 1 Xpower 1 i5 655K 1 i3 560 and 1 H55M-ED55, now i think i should buy Air tickets instead of continue killing the remaining Hardware. i never had tha bad luck in overclockin until now, i hope this weekend my luck change

Best of luck to you CL3P20! I would advise you to use the 182.50's with 01 and set your lod to 5.1 in rivatuner. One more thing, you need to get your ram frequency up higher...should help your results. Keep on clockin'!

 

@ Gom, dood your frickin hilarious with the neg frames in h55 vantage...bunch of our guys bangin their heads against that format too, gl Chris.

wow man, I hate to say it too but my board is back to life must have just gotten to cold. Bad luck my friend

[Hondacity]

why is igp vantage result removed? i mean the score that was 900+?

[Threedhero]

This P55-GD65 is killing me with the Vdroop anyone got mods?

[chew*]

The result was not possible at the screenshot speed.

 

GT2 looked bugged.

[CL3P20]

only 20L left.. oh le' cry le' whine!! Arrgh!! I have 3x 655's.. 1x of which is doing +6 in 3D.. not sure if its enough to catch Romdom though ..off to the mancave for some cold ones..

[[GF]Duke]

IMPORTANT!

 

I've updated the two Vantage challenges with the requirement of having a FM verification link. Note that the current submissions, that have no link, will NOT be deleted. Future submissions require an verification link.

 

There are 3 Vantage challanges. Does this include Stage 1 challange? I just happened to find this today. Its the first time i've read the thread. idk how many people know about it.

[Massman]

Just the two big ones

[[GF]Duke]

Whew. thanks

Just curious, what does a bugged run look like? I ask as I will be all sorts of unhappypants if my epic struggle to break 2 fps in either game test is declared invalid. I remember hearing about the prior drivers doing all sorts of funky crap but were the specific driver requirements not put in place to deter bugged runs?

That problem was shady drivers...........

 

There is still the ability to bug vantage however which totally has nothing to do with even platform, cpu,vga or driver used..........

 

GT2 would be where you would bug high.

 

It's elementary, if it looks to good to be true for these specific drivers which I might add suck ( or work right depending on your perception of things ) then it probably is.

 

I'd show you but my board and cpu is dead, going to go kill a lightning now since i'm on a roll lately.
