Is playing with the Batch size & reduction size allowed.?
Yes, it is allowed and it should be! Each graphics card can perform very different on each setting. If you want to optimize your score, play around with it. It can speedup the whole calculation and enhance reduction time.

 

n/a and today is the end for noctua ?
Hmm? Both stages are open until the 28th of February. We extended the competition two weeks ago. :) Edited by _mat_

That's what I was thinking.

But their was some discussion about it, so I though an official clarification will clear the air.

 

Thanks.

I just checked with the competition site and that's a misunderstanding. Those prizes were the original ones before we extended the competition with EK's prizes and doubled Noctua's.

 

Massman, please be so kind and remove them!

Put an order on a slimfit, and a 15E donation.

Sorry, cannot participate in the benching - I've retired a long time ago, and I do not have the gear no more, however when I was active I appreciated chatting with the Turricanator, especially on the OCX chat.

 

Gonna grab me some t-shirts in respect of the Porsche Masta

 

That makes two of us.

I see, but it took me 3 days to get this running on my p4 and when i finally after 6+ hours bench I get N/A in return. I am dissapointed and this is my first competition that I participated. :\

Fixed all the N/A dates. You guys are running some old stuff there. Turrican would have been proud to see this :D

Sorry about that. Is it correct now?

From what I understand, the Noctua prizes remain while EK added more prizes on top of it.

 

Plus as per the old rules you had to finish in Top 3 overall in the competition instead of a stage to get a prize. Now if you finish in the top of 3 of CPU stage 1 & are not in the Top 3 overall, you still get a prize.

 

This is a win win except that you might have more competition due to the time extension.

I got Noctua to double their prizes because of the new separation between stages. It's pure win, guys! :)

 

Thanks Massman, all good now!

All fixed

 

Nope :D

 

As i see it.

You must switch the 1st and 3rd place (same cpu's) but ...

 

skydec is 1st , cause of faster time.

havli is 3rd.

 

 

My result is (9h 5min 59sec 816ms) , NOT 11h
