Any chance we can gain 15 more days in Sept ?

July = full time job
Aug = Vacation time-family time
Sept = more free time

 

 

Is there still a chance ?

I was told no on Discord

I see that the AMD CPU stage for Geekbench 3 on AM4/5 now requires a score on a 6-cores CPU.

This probably means that you should add the Ryzen 5 5600X3D to the list of forbidden CPUs if you want to ban X3D.

And another question : Some stages specify number of videocards while other specify number of cores.

For example the 550Ti/560/560Ti stage says you have to use one videocard, but does that mean a dual-core card like a 560Ti 2Win would be allowed ?

Standard HWBOT HW rules apply: 

No ES hardware (unless specifically mentioned)

No server hardware (unless specifically mentioned)

Single CPU sockets (unless specifically mentioned)

Single GPU/Core (unless specifically mentioned)

 

so no dual core cards for that stage

Stage 3: GPUPI  for CPU 1B : Pinnacle and Summit Ridge CPUs only AM4 - 3 scores
              Pinnacle & Summit Ridge CPUs only, according HWBOT database/ No Ryzen 5 1600X (8 core)
            

Why would you ban 1600-8C if it doesn't bring any advantage with 3 score stage? Optimal setup is 2700, 2700X and 1800X or 2700 Pro, or smth.

I'd sub 1600-8C since I dont have other 8 core chips on hand 😋

Limited availability?

Seeing two different benches for AMD/ATI GPU Stage 4.

@Leeghoofd , for nvidia cards is it gtx 550 or gtx 550Ti ? I ask because on the front page under competitions it states gtx 550Ti and in here on this thread it says gtx 550 ? wish one is correct ?

I'm confuzed 🙃 with this ...

Thanks Alby.

 

Small typo Angelo, we don't have a GTX 550 at HWBOT

Stage 2: 3Dmark11 Extreme  GeForce GTX 550 Ti/560/560 Ti - 3 scores
               Single GPU cards only

Official Team Cup 2024 wallpaper ( not resized )

AMD CPU ( NO ES samples )

Stage1: Cinebench R11.5 AM2 - 3 scores
             AM2 CPUs only, according HWBOT database

Deneb athlon 5000 allowed? It's only ddr2.

Shouldn't be as they're AM2+

correct the Deneb one is Socket AM2+

How many scores count into toral with no limits stages (ref clock and 2001)?

Ref clock is dogpile, current limit is 200

2001 stage is no hardware limits but only 3 scores

For DFi stage Lanparty requirement should be extended to allow Infinity/Blood Iron too, they are budget counterparts of LP line-up from DDR1/DDR2 era

Compo is already running, so no more hw changes to avoid drama at specific forums 😛

Come on, man, it's only a week, and you're not cutting, but allowing more, besides - it makes sense as those boards are often were similar (LP Nf2 Ultra vs Nf2 Infinity, they even share the same BiOS, other example on 939 where Infinity is stripped from UV). I'm surprised no one mentioned this before.

url for AMD stage is broken with Bad Request Error 400 error for me. Can access via OC eSports still.
