xxbassplayerxx Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 i liked the team cup. some interesting hardware was required. i hope the country cup is similar. I liked about half of it. The other half (i.e. pre 2005) belongs in Old School, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead Things Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I liked about half of it. The other half (i.e. pre 2005) belongs in Old School, IMO. Team Cup has always had a strong old school component - that wasn't something new for this year or anything like that. I think the comp is intentionally designed to offer a mix of old, new, expensive and cheap. All the "slowest," "lowest" and "most boring" stages were new-ish, though. I know some folks found those a real hoot and a holler. But personally, not my idea of a good time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massman Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) The Team Cup is aimed at a wider variety of overclocking activities, which includes legacy hardware as well as sometimes odd stages like "slowest". It's a longer contest too, which allows for a wider variety The Country Cup is aimed at the more recent hardware.

zeropluszero Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 It's also the worst time of year to organise anything. which I'm sure is intentional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I can't just let you Canadians be the only ones fighting the Aussies and the French... The US came in 7th place last year. That's only acceptable in education!

newlife Posted October 14, 2015 Author Share Posted October 14, 2015 I hope the last stage limits the number of gpus that can be used because gpupi can make use of 8 gpus unless you want people to be running 8k of gpus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanbonden Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 http://oc-esports.io/#!/article/3146/hwbot_country_cup_2015_kicks_off_november_1st Just a fast question Stage 1 - 3DMark06 Nvidia HWpts: use 10 different single GPU Nvidia graphics cards, each from a different family. The ranking is based on the sum of the hardware points of the ten results. There are 50 points for the winning country The bolded part referes to different core or different naming family? For example would a gtx 680 and a gtx770 be seen as different family when its the same card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Correct Lanbonden: GTX 770 -> GeForce 700 series GTX 680 -> GeForce 600 series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
