Guest Ziken (BANNED) Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Here at HWBOT we try our best to deliver a fair and enjoyable playing field for all those who participate in the rankings and competition. To be able to provide this kind of service we have tried to design some submission and general rules to help remove any doubts about whether something is allowed or not. Based on continued experience these rules will be updated, expanded and completed as time goes by. Please check back for any updates. FORMULA SERIES Round 1 runs from August 26th to September 26th Round 2 runs from October 28th to November 28th No extreme cooling (temp >20°C) allowed. For XTU load temp must be higher than 60°C Only Rookie, Novice and Enthusiast leagues are eligible GENERAL COMPETITION RULES Only one HWBOT account per overclocker is allowed. HWBOT and ASUS reserve the right to reject any entry. Employees of MB/VGA/MEM/CPU/PSU manufacturers are not allowed. No hardware sharing is allowed (cf HWBOT 3.2.E) It is not allowed to remove submissions from the competition. After the end of the competition no more submissions or rectifications will be allowed. Plan your submission ahead! Unfair play may lead to disqualification Examples of unacceptable behavior: Changing League before/during the competition for strategic purposes Influence others’ submissions to profit your ranking Deliberately forget/make a mistake in the submission process and ask later for change In case of a tie, the fastest Y-Cruncher 1B score will be the deciding benchmark HARDWARE Must use ASUS motherboard (Intel or AMD) Must use commercially / retail available components at the beginning of the competition (no server).
