jpmboy Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 They are basically the same cards. This makes no sense at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators websmile Posted April 29, 2017 Administrators Share Posted April 29, 2017 So where can I buy my Gainward, evga or asus Titan pascal X?^^ Not all decisions are made on technical specs only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpmboy Posted April 29, 2017 Author Share Posted April 29, 2017 So the seller/manufacturer is being punished by HWBOT for some reason? Can't buy an EVGA 1080Ti FTW or ASUS Strix 1080Ti from Nvidia either for that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fasttrack Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 To be honest and objective. Â HWBOT members live around the world. In my country ( poor country ), maybe third world country, Greece, Titan X Pascal and Titan Xp, are nowhere available for buying AT ANY PRICE and not available to buy online from any NVIDIA site in the world. Â Only sideway is to have a friend abroad ( Germany or UK ) for instance, send the money to them and get the cards. Â Even in this case, support and service will not be available directly to the end user. Â Now that would not be fair play, would it be ?

Administrators websmile Posted April 29, 2017 Administrators Share Posted April 29, 2017 A card that is not distributed worldwide because Nvidia does not allow boardpartners to sell it is even a hard case for ranking for me in general, hwbot allows it though for general use. Hwbot is neither in the position nor does it plan to "punish" any vendor, our job is to keep the playing field at least a bit even at our competitions when we can, we have members from all over the world. When I see the price for Titan XP and 1080 ti for example, I see nearly 1400 euros vs 700 and on the first price no competition that can lower it... this is also a factor for leagues that are limited to cheaper cpu models like the non pro oc divisions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpmboy Posted May 2, 2017 Author Share Posted May 2, 2017 Yeah this is not a technical decision for a benchmark competition. But rules are rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators websmile Posted June 30, 2017 Administrators Share Posted June 30, 2017 Same as on pro oc, I moderated and sent out report mails because of missing links - guys, please check the rules, time spy always needs a link for example, I will block all not fixed results I reported tomorrow latest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
