Intel Open Overclocking Championship 2022

[Leeghoofd]

Stage 1 is over, congratz, very nice ending with super high clocks (totally unexpected) We had aimed for 6.1Ghz ish, seems you surpassed our expectations big time!

@sugi0lover

@eternifity

@matique

Plz provide proof for Stage 1

  @boogeymanjw we require some footage for your 32M run plz as you are entitiled for the 12900K CPU

 

Pzl mail the link to albrecht@hwbot.org

6200mhz is respectable.
It's a total loss.

[Leeghoofd]

Moderated the Open OC challenge Stage 2, many CPU-Z links are stil missing, a few surpassed the 5505MHz cap and a few missing backgrounds....

 

Plz advise your team members!

GMorning, okay i'll try make one in couple of hours.

Don't forget ladies and gentlemen to add the CPUZ verification link when submitting !!! Over 20 subs don't have one (yet)

[marcvezina]

@leeghoofd - I have an issue validating CPUZ for stage 3 Geekbench5 - At steady 55MHz I press F7 and core speed goes down to 5300 - sometimes 5400 - the .cvf file is saved at 5300 or 5400 - once saved, CPUZ goes back to 5500MHZ.  I get the same behavior saving locally or directly online. Not sure if it's an Aqua OC issue, a CPUZ issue or just the expected behavior when all of the INTEL enhancement are enabled: Turbo boost, Speedstep, Speeshift and etc. Could be Windows 11. I don't know... I'd like to know if this will affect my entries in anyway (CPU validation showing slower core speed than what's used for the Geekbench5 run?)

PS. I have attached a video of the behavior using F7. I am not able to correct this issue - if it is one - at the moment. I tried many ways.

Thanks for your time

[Leeghoofd]

you can always try XOC mode in CPUZ, it's lighter when validating

[Leeghoofd]

Stage 3 has been moderated once more ,

plz ensure you use the official wallpaper, CPUZ 2.01 version as requested, Hwinfo is running during the run,...

[Leeghoofd]

Last stage completed, video requested of the top 3 of your geekbench run

@sugi0lover

@Broken APEX49

@Kathum

@boogeymanjw

[marcvezina]

@LeeghoofdBrillant - that works. If I may, the validation is stamped "Unchecked" on the validator page - how do I get it checked? And by the way, hats off for your work on the Open Intel Competition. Thanks

 

Edited August 21, 2022 by marcvezina

[Leeghoofd]

you can only get a checked by CPUZ page if you DON'T use the eXtreme OC mode

[Leeghoofd]

Top 10 is confirmed, thx for the videoproof ladies and gentlemen. Big thanks to Intel so that we could host this great competition for not only Intel users but also the AMD ones.

Very nice to see the solid participation and each stage finishing with very strong results and tight scores.

 

 

Since we we always want to improve it would be great if you could help us, clarify or even rant via the attached Feedback form.

Not a strong result on my part, but there is still hope for the lucky draw. Looking forward to it!

Does this mean there is another draw of one CPU, cause Toggl missed stage 2?
