February 7, 20205 yr so not a single round as in the past? I wrote about the previous cheapaz cpus to confirm the style comp: cheap vga, 3d (or gpu-based) benchs for 2020 do you propose 3 cheapaz rounds with 3 different vgas?
February 7, 20205 yr my personal thought is that 3 rounds could be interesting, 1 or 2 month for each round (3 stages for every round as in the past e.g.); also more rounds, if including vega integrated gpus, maybe with a ryzen superpi32m stage Edited February 7, 20205 yr by superpatodonaldo
February 10, 20205 yr Author Crew So what do you think of these benchmarks for AMD HD5770 3dmark03 (limited CPU clocks ?) 3DMark11 Performance ( GPU score ) Unigine Extreme ?
February 10, 20205 yr nice start, and if replace 3dm11p gpu score with a gpupi 1b (e.g.) the scores will be good also for the HD5770 rankings
February 10, 20205 yr On 2/7/2020 at 3:53 AM, Leeghoofd said: We have the poll right to pick the GPU, currently in the lead is HD 5770, but there is a very similar Juniper based card the HD 6770. My question is: Round 1 with HD 5770 only or HD 5770 + HD 6770 Round 2 with GTS 450 or 550Ti Round 3 with GTX 950 Are you concerned that having 3 rounds this year will limit options for the future of cheapazz comps? I thought there were some concerns about not enough cheap and widely available vga models to keep the comp going long term without needing to revisit previous hardware.
February 10, 20205 yr Author Crew Well it's just a proposition to do 3 rounds on total... For me if you guys want only one round fine by me too

I thought there were some concerns about not enough cheap and widely available vga models to keep the comp going long term without needing to revisit previous hardware. imho there are plenty out there, just not plenty of newer ones. Looking at previous comps we have not had much representation from tons of maxwell, kepler, fermi, gcn (various), tesla cards. So I think we definitely have tons of possible cards for the future. I'd say we're limited by 1. how slow of cards are people willing to run and 2. how much of a requirement must mods be. For example lots of newer and slightly newer cards can get fairly full voltage control through software so mods then become about secondary rails, cap mods, and potential epower if vrm is too weak.
February 10, 20205 yr Author Crew Both compos are pre-configured (+background is requested from the artwork designer) Anyway still open for inputs for benchmark selection and if needed CPU restriction ( MHZ) for the HD 5770 Round

Need baby Cypress (HD 5830) for GPUPI. Edited February 10, 20205 yr by cbjaust

February 11, 20205 yr I would go for no frequency/cooling limit. I like seeing records broken during competitions, but that's just me.

February 19, 20205 yr @superpatodonaldo, I don't think so. Also, last I read, the stages were placeholders and yet to be finalised.
February 19, 20205 yr Author Crew Yes first thing is to finalize G.Skill rules and yes we have to finalize Cheapaz too. GPUPI will be replaced for the Discrete HD 5770 stage CPU clocks will be limited background has been requested and will be available at the start of the competition)
February 24, 20205 yr Author Crew For HD 5770: Unigene Heaven Extreme Fire Strike GPU score 3D11 Performance GPU score CPU clock limits required or not ?
February 24, 20205 yr 4 minutes ago, bigblock990 said: cpu freq limit not necessary, all three of those benches are gpu bound. Good idea to have one just to be safe. 20 minutes ago, Leeghoofd said: 4003 or 4503Mhz or higher? 4503

February 24, 20205 yr yeah I don't see the point of CPU frequency limitation when the GPU is what is holding the bench back
