The two AMD-specific 2D stages and the Catzilla one are for current hardware. There's also nothing stopping you from benching current stuff for the BCLK and 3DMark 11 stages Edited October 7, 2019 by unityofsaints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ObscureParadox_3XS Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Ok fantastic, thanks Alby, time to get planning then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Leeghoofd Posted October 7, 2019 Author Crew Share Posted October 7, 2019 LATEST CHANGES TO THE BENCHES in the OP, let's go for 14 in total , limited to 4 scores per stage 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Digg_de Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 3DMark03: Intel Integrated graphics - Sandy/Ivy/Haswell & Skylake CPUs - (4 scores) One Score of each CPU or like in TC 3x Haswell and now + 1x Skylake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Leeghoofd Posted October 7, 2019 Author Crew Share Posted October 7, 2019 Need to be different IGPUs.. We can also switch to on-board mobo craphics or AMD APUs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Digg_de Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 (edited) I would like 1x SB, 1x IB, 1x Haswell and 1x Skylake. Not like TC and 3x Haswell (Haswell HD, HD4600, HD4600P or something like that). Or better was 2x Haswell, 1x IB in TC.. however.

Guest Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 3DMark Firestrike Ultra - Dual GPU cards - (4 scores) Ha that's epic. Even though I don't have big gpu's. Are you thinking like GTX 590 690 types. x2 processor in x1 gpu? OR as ol mate says above sli & crossfire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Leeghoofd Posted October 7, 2019 Author Crew Share Posted October 7, 2019 Indeed a single card with 2 gpus on it, this has been a popular request for each Team or Country Cup... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Yeah interesting. Those gpu's are a bit exotic Catzilla could be fun though. I've hardly ever run that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And perhaps make it AM3 so then there's not so huge a gap from the 1 and 3 core scores to the 2 and 4 core scores? Otherwise the 1 and 3 core chips need only be present while the stage is decided by the 2 and 4 cores. It gets worse if we include 6 cores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yosarianilives Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Alright so balance of new and old, best chips are athlon 200ge/300ge, Phenom II 3 core (assuming unlocking is allowed), R5 3400g, 960t (5 cores). I'm not sure that a hardcore OC will be needed on the Phenom II chips if the ryzen chips get one but I think it'll be fun either way to push am3 chips on ln2.

Prediction: team US gets more optimal hardware but doesn't bother LN2'ing the phenoms, team AU LN2s everything and takes the stage. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
