Multi GPU and Xeon CPU

[Johni5]

Hi!

GTX 5xx enable multi GPU-s?

Xeon CPU enable or disable?

[macsbeach98]

Single GPU and no Xeons.

Haha.Fixit the rules!!!!

[Johni5]

1 gpu core and no server cpu.Please update the rules.

[websmile]

We never allow server hardware for rtp and it is always 1 gpu core unless explicitly allowed - I will add it to the rules nontheless

[g_trud]

That would be appreciated very much.

 

Might save others -with equally insufficient knowledge about "common rules" like me, some time and trouble.

 

And delete my contributions/submission to the competition for not being according to the rules

[Johni5]

Wrong rules!Bloomfield not Nehalem if Xeon not allowed.Nehalem is architecture.

[websmile]

The rules are correct - it is nehalem i7 or gulftown i7, which rules out xeons

Yup, I was a little bit inconsistent when I created the CPU families. The problem doesnt exist for Sandy Bridge and up, because architecture name = core name. But Westmere and Bloomfield have completely different core names. I probably fix this by creating another core i7 family, so Lynnfields and Bloomfield are splitted.

 

Edit: Done

Though I have to admit that I dont know why this was an issue as you couldnt submit with Xeons anyway as it was restricted to Core i7 sub families.
