Good luck everyone!

cool!

quick question: the prize pool is for the competitors with the most points from 3d + 2d stages? or is there separate prize pools for the 2d and 3d stages?

Let's try this one more time.

 

 

ES RAM allowed or not...?

I think it is pretty clear: "Engineering samples or hardware that is not retail/commercially available at the beginning of the contest are not allowed"

However we can add CPU-Z SPD tab as you suggested for sure, but given how easy it is to change SPD, it wouldn't make much difference...

Thanks for the answer man.

I'd still say add SPD tab.

We will rock you!

After discussing, MSI decided to remove the time limitations in each stages.

This means you only need to complete the 3 stages before the end of the 2D battle.

This is to give more time to overclockers to prepare the comp, especially extreme ocers that have to get the board.

 

I hope everyone will be satisfied with this late minute change and I apologies in advance to those who would feel differently.

hi , There's still a time limitation on oc-esport. 6 days left for 1st stage .

Yes, because I'm faster to post than HWBOT is to make modification.

I don't know of a simple way to flash SPD with DDR4 so you might as well add the CPU-Z SPD tab requirement

Back to a sandbag party.

That's good news.

 

If Hwbot is gonna add the SPD requirement, they should do it soon before we have Extreme guys complaining about having to rebench.

As it seems to be more present in every competition, especially non-subzero, is there a real language breakdown between "single core" and "single CPU"?

 

Always someone running 4/8, 4/4, 2/2 etc during "single core" stages that confounds me.

Fixed the limitation

It has been added last week.

 

Does SPD work in win xp with x99?

I don't see a reason why it wouldn't, let me try that for you!

 

EDIT: Just tried on Sam OS, it shows nothing... Never checked before so unsure it's the lighten OS or it's not supported.

AIDA64 can be used to show SPD with XP.

From only:$39.95 hope the free version is enough. can we get the rules updated one last time please? i already have to redo 32m so will just wait now for the rules to settle.

@dRweEz: As I said to you, AIDA64 free version is fine to display SPD in Windows XP.

For others OSes, CPU-Z SPD Tab is preferred.

@Pepinorang thanks

just curious if only two people have competed in the extreme 2D challenge by the end of this competition will they be giving the extra prizes to the ambient 2D challenger?

I can assure you, there will be more than two people competing in the extreme 2D challenge

agree 100%

just a suggestion define what type of ambient hardware can be used next time because I was thinking it would be anything that pushes surrounding air to help cool your system and not ice buckets (which is something I just learned but a cool trick =P)
