The official ROC OC Showdown Formula Series Round 3 thread.

[Guest george.kokovinis]

That's all? No final results? No moderation? No new anouncements?

Gratz to all, it was an amaising battle:)!

Finaly, it's all about the money! To have or not to have ultra high-end cooling solution and a OC Panel to enable slow mode onthefly:)!

Still think the lowest temps ware faked by the users from the 1-st to 3-rd place.

 

Bytheway...what make difference between me and KARTA in ranking? We have the same amount of points! He has the highest score, and I have 2 better sores then hi's. Explenations...?

 

 

Really ?

Noooooooooo, I can't believe that.

I thought that all in life is love and affection.

[Nik]

.....wait of the final scores

[Massman]

That's all? No final results? No moderation? No new anouncements?

 

Processing the scores takes a while, sorry for the delay.

[Christian Ney]

Okay, time to have a look at yet another moderation nightmare.

 

EDIT: TOP10 checked. Additional verification was asked for two "suspicious" scores.

If my submissions were reported, so this Haswell rig picture at least is a little "suspicious"

[Christian Ney]

Correct, two scores have wrong system picture.

[Nik]

other wrong picture?

[KaRtA]

I have emailed my picture to Christian, I picked the wrong one for one of mine.

 

I cannot update the submission with the correct one.

[Hilderman]

Sure seems to be many missing utilization tabs in the top 10 at least.

[Nik]

Whats up with the extrem cooling mods?

 

I hope for all we have a fair final scores!?

latest submission check Dec 13th top ten....

no utilization tab places 7th, 8th, 10th, 12th,

Is this ok now?

[Guest george.kokovinis]

Folks,

 

Christian Ney is the one of the most experienced moderators in the world of computer hardware competitions.

I strongly suggest that he is left alone to judge and decide.

 

We all have our opinion.

Depending on the angle of the eye, what is wrong for me is right for someone else.

 

I have to note though, regardless of the specific competition, that a big

and in depth discussion must take place to finally define in a CRYSTAL

CLEAR WAY, what is considered ambient.

 

Otherwise, the existence of enthusiast league has no meaning.

[KaRtA]

There is a few in there with screen shots that aren't right too, covering the 2015 Round 3. Just Sayin'

[stivut]

Ice IS water, but you cant't keep the proc over 20 degrees in idle if you use it.

[KaRtA]

Looks like dice, not ice.
