Max Memory Clock Rules

The highest memory frequency wins.

The result must be validated on http://valid.x86.fr/

HWBOT user name must match CPU-Z validation user name

The screenshot must contain the following items: official wallpaper, CPU-Z (CPU, Memory, Mainboard, SPD) within 2% of validated frequency

 

so besides valid file you need to take also desktop screenshot with official wallpaper?

So who's fault is it?

 

I can physically walk into a store here in Australia and buy a SOC Force so why is it banned from the competition? Not much of a paper launch when they are sitting on shelves is it?

 

So by restricting people from entering who have hardware from the comp it can't be anyone but HyperX fault can it?
