Questions:

 

1) Who should we ask for the HOF 1060 "OC Tools Pack" ?

 

2) In case our previously bought HOF RAM is damaged, can we use the Galax HOF e-die 4000c19 sticks given from last year's GOC (Assuming it's counted as retail) ? There's no purchase invoice for those though.

 

Thanks :)

Send the request for the oc pack to me or Christian Ney, we will give a heads up here when it is ready to be distributed or things change.

On the memory, I see no problem with the old gen E-die, if I have doubts about legitimacy and ask for invoice, I am sure you will have it ready. ES is different though, see above

 

Edit Do you have retails from last year or was this a sample question only, Alva?

Ok will do ;)

IIRC every GOC 2015 finalist is given a 4000c19 HOF kit (of 4 sticks), I don't know if its considered ES or retail. But as Bullshooter pointed out above, if it's ES then it's probably won't be able to be used then :)

ES is not allowed, and we want to see spd and can ask for invoice as stated in the rules. This does not only refer to the e-die special sticks from last years, also benchers who received Galax B-die samples had to buy retails to use for qualifier, I know this first hand from at least two possible participants. So this is no random rule that hits only the 2015 finals sticks, it is clear rule for all ES sticks :)

No, it is unreleased hardware, we have only one exception for this like we have also for es, this is challenger, and even on this next year it might be different

Hmm, cpu freq is limited to 6003 MHz. Which is fine for 32M, but I'm not sure about the fire strikes. If we set 60x100 we will see at least 6003 in sysinfo, but it is very likely to be higher now and then. Especially for 3d11 physics this is a problem as you can't see reported speed until you upload file...

Maybe frequency limit should be slightly higher?

Cough, we went for 6003 instead of 6000 flat because of fluctuation. The problem that people will always aim for limit will not be changed by exceeding clock range, also the fluctuation problem will not be solved. If we use 6005 or 6010, people will set 100,1/100,125 or 100,2 and have same problem. We discussed this with Mad Tse and 6003 is OK

Ok, so we need to bench at 99.75...because 100.00 will be above 6003, maybe not all the time but we can't know until we sub to 3dmark.com.

 

What we mean is that 6003 doesn't cover fluctuation. Not that we want to push the limit...

I ran some tests. Sysinfo doesn't report highest fluctuation so 6003 should be fine.

 

One more thing, rules do not say that we have to use galax 1060 for physics and 32M so I assume any vga is ok here? 1060 would probably not be good for 32m because there is no XP support as far as I know...

Physics and 32m are no 3d stages, so feel free to use any card that fits, but don´t show gpuz if you don´t use Galax, please. Rules say GPUZ mandatory for 3d stages only
