Bullus Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Why is it then submitted as 1028.99 ? u sure it has to be exactly? Quote
Vaykir Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 yes, its like stage 2. its submitted as 1028.99 because the page only allows 2 numbers after the dot. so we have to get 0.04 more points. Quote
buska103 Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) HAA. It turns out that I've been stressing out for no reason, for the last 3 days I have been trying to get my ISP to fix the damn internet problem, and when it does actually go up again, it turns out that I barely even reached 3/4ths of the expected DX11 score... I guess all the other stages lowered my expectations for a "overclocker contest". Hahaha. Then again, I guess I never did have a chance. I found this site near the middle of stage 3, so next time I'll try to keep my eyes open for stage 1... plus I bet the MSI-only advantage would of helped me through stages 1-3. Â I guess I'll have to buy another 6850 Cyclone with my own money. Rats. Edited March 8, 2011 by buska103 Quote
Vaykir Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 Target still not hit!  as i said  but already got 3 times 1028.986 .... and dragon age 2 will be released today. yeehaa! benching or playing da2? hard decision! Quote
buska103 Posted March 9, 2011 Posted March 9, 2011 730 some DX11 marks here... what kind of hellish machines are you guys running if you have to underclock to get 1028.990? Hahaha... Quote
Vaykir Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 730 some DX11 marks here... what kind of hellish machines are you guys running if you have to underclock to get 1028.990? Hahaha... Â here i dont underclock but overclock from 850/1200 to 1024/1300. cpu runs @ 6x 4,2 ghz HT Quote
zoro Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 This one was for powerful systems! for a 5870/6870 a good OC is needed. for 6950 a moderate or no OC, for 6970 an underclock Quote
Vaykir Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 without catalyst 11.2 or 11.1e its not possible (without LN2 of course). but it pays off Quote
Vaykir Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 no, wie love it! i hope i will get second bulls eye after zoro... but its so fu***** hard Quote
zoro Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 i don't want to run again unigine for at least a year great competition! Quote
Vaykir Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 I'm already looking foward to the next competition of this type. Quote
zoro Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Yes, me too! the good thing about "hitting target" competitions is that you don't need to have any particular knowledge of OC nor to have top of the cream HW but rather alot of time, patience and luck of course Quote
Vaykir Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 but u have to find out the perfect clocks for cpu, gpu and mem for example: for stage 1, 2 and 3 i had to use amd gpu clock tool, because with msi afterburner i didnt get under 600/800 clocks. Â i hope there will be any competition like that with cpu as well ^^ Quote
zoro Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) I am counting just 16 participations for the great prize! Excluding of course the stage winners. Good luck to all Edited March 14, 2011 by zoro Quote

zoro Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) i don't think we get 3 tickets, but 2 because we are stage winners and 1 ticket is for the stage 4 tickets are excluded from the lottery but lets wait for Massman to write the official announcement Edited March 14, 2011 by zoro Quote
