keeph8n Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 So after having an absolute blast at the PA Party put on by Funsoul and crew, I got to thinking about doing an event either in the spring time or for Country Cup. At this time I want to see what kind of interest there is for a Country Cup 2020 party/bench meet/get together whatever you want to call it. Location: IN/IL/KY area When: Obviously during Country Cup How Long: 3-5 days probably? There are Venues here that have the ability to host anywhere between as little as 25 to more than 250. Ample power available, plenty of LN2 available, and centralized traveling whether driving or flying. I personally think it would be neat to get all the big name OCs from USA involved as well as those just starting out and make a big event out of it. Letting people watch, maybe have a workshop or two while there, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splave Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Mark me as interested if the timing is decent 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funsoul Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Allen's ALWAYS interested hehe This one will be closer for him, though so that's sure to help. I'd be interested. Not sure whether do-able but certainly want to stay posted. Reach out if/when there's anything where you think I can help! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yosarianilives Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 If we want to do it for Country Cup then I think the only time that's viable for most people is first two weeks of November, after that you get into Thanksgiving and December is basically a no go for most people.

Bones Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Can't say yes ATM but I'm definitely interested. I'll have to see where my finances stack up at that time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparkysAdventure Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 If this doesn't conflict with soccer/school/family and I can get some practice with cold before then I would be interested. Can't promise that I'm coming though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yosarianilives Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 @Leeghoofd Has the timeline for country cup been decided yet? I feel like it would make a difference if we decide to do a benchmeet for country cup this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ground Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Gotta say here, December is really impractical for a lot of people, at least for me it is. A longer gap between TC and CC also won't hurt tbh. Just my opinion here, agree or disagree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Leeghoofd Posted September 25, 2019 Crew Share Posted September 25, 2019 it has been this period since at least two years now, hardware specs will be known at the beginning of the next month 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yosarianilives Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 So I'm gonna try to host a weekend bench meet in November at my house for anyone in the Midwest as well as anyone else who wants to travel, although I'm expecting a max of like 5-10 people. If more people show up we'll make room. Is there a weekend in November that works best for ya'll? I'm thinking first or second weekend but am open to non Thanksgiving suggestions. Also it'll be byob but I'll probably have some stuff as well 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l0ud_sil3nc3 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 So how's the Country Cup going for team USA? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unityofsaints Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 If you want to meet up in order to comiserate together on how you once again came third in Country Cup that's fine by me ? I just wouldn't plan it this far in advance, it's a bit limiting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chew* Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) Anyone need a 5970 for stage 14? I can't even remember but is that the last dual gpu card AMD ever made or were there hotter monstrosities? I don't need it back alive and def don't want it back if it dies so no holds barred.

keeph8n Posted December 5, 2019 Author Share Posted December 5, 2019 I could giver a shot if you want, would have to look over Stage 14 to make sure I have the rest of the necessary equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So apparently there isn't a vega pro duo but there is a fiji and polaris. The vega dual gpu card is the v340 which doesn't have proper drivers for an OS, it has drivers for esxi and basically is only made for VMs. Lots of other gcn based dual gpu cards from AMD that you haven't mentioned though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take it if no one else wants to run it. I've been trying with a GTX 690 but it always craps out during the second test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetalRacer Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Anybody have a GTX 470 they can bench for stage 12? Mine turned up dead so I went with the GTX 770. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
