The official Cheapaz Chips Round 1 GT 218 thread.

With such insane gpu market pricing, I'm concern that this might be the last Cheapaz cup ever....

There's always legacy. These kind of cards will always be cheap when this old

[Matsglobetrotter]

is it ok to run 3dmv with GPU score only thus not cpu tests. UL can generate link regardless

[Leeghoofd]

yes no problem

[Matsglobetrotter]

great:-)

[Leeghoofd]

Addition, to the rules, imposed CPU monitoring with Hwinfo portable (click for portable version) visible in the verification screenshot

 

Time, maximum frequency & load must be visible

Thank you for this small update which seems completely legitimate to me in the case of 3DM01 and 3DM03 

[superpatodonaldo]

good.

Btw 3dm03 and 3dm01 are not so cpu affected, almost for air gpu freq

Also for vantage gpu score? in this case ul link is already mandatory...and cpu freq isn't relevant

[Matsglobetrotter]

makes sense as cpuz might not be relevant. actually for the 2011- 2066 platforms where CPUS seems to fluctuate significantly. Meanwhile like Superpatodonaldo mentions these benchers on N210 seems almost agnostic to CPU and cpu speed unless its +- 100 Mhz. am awaiting my second GPU so i can play better :-)

[Matsglobetrotter]

suggest all subs without hw info are deleted so we see a clean new sheet

[ViNsTeR777]

so do i have to redo all my subs for this then?

[ViNsTeR777]

so i set my cpu to over the required amount then bench then set clock back then run hwinfo for screen shot?

seem pointless may as well use video evidence if anything

[Leeghoofd]

Current scores stay, new subs will require the hwinfo. No debate required either you play along or you don't... Video proof can always be demanded if the score is suspicious. 

[d0minat0r]

Well done! amazing results boys!

[FireKillerGR]

congrats everyone!

[yosarianilives]

Really good participation everyone! Makes me excited for round two, will have to look at feedback and maybe suggestions from before comp. If you had any new ideas since this comp post them in the original planning thread and we'll take into consideration.
