Massman Posted November 20, 2011 Posted November 20, 2011 Seems like a good way to upgrade to X79. Either you go for the overall prize, or you feel incredibly lucky Quote
PROBN4LYFE Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 I'll give it a run with the big boys...Happy Thanksgiving to all! Quote
04ahgy Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 The stage 1 limitations says that "Use 1 videocard core(s) in total" - Manufacturer should be MSI, or it could be from any vendor? The stage 1 limitations says that "Use 1 videocard core(s) in total" but the competition details says "This “MSI Sandy Bridge Evolution” contest is opened to overclockers worldwide, and requires MSI 6 series mainboards, N580GTX graphics cards and Intel 2500K or higher processors." The stage 1 limitations says that "Only use processors using socket LGA1155". Thus HD6970 or low-cost LGA1155 CPUs (such as Celeron G530, 540, etc.) are allowed or not? Thanks in advance, HGyu Quote
Massman Posted November 24, 2011 Author Posted November 24, 2011 1) There is no brand limitation for the graphics card, only for the mainboard 2) The GTX580 is what MSI/HWBOT expects to be necessary to win, but it's not a limitation in itself. The limitation is "a single gpu graphics card". HD 6970 + Celeron G530 is a system that can definitely be used for the competition! Quote
PROBN4LYFE Posted November 24, 2011 Posted November 24, 2011 Yes thank you for clearing that up. Quote
Earthdog Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 Some nice scores have been posted. I wont be able to rerun as the MSI board is gone now... oh well. Quote
Xtreme Addict Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 It;s normal. MSI boards are killing CPUs Quote

Coldest Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) @ christian ney : Please check my submission history : http://www.hwbot.org/user/coldest/ There I clearly submitted 2149 Score for DX11, then I scored again 356.25 for DX9. After this, i updated my 2149 DX11 submission for photo update, but then suddenly my GTX 580 score reverted to 356.25. http://www.hwbot.org/submission/2231504 How to fix this? I cannot edit my DX11 submission again since it would need me to submit the .hwbot score.. I can send you the 2149.hwbot score if it's needed. Thanks, Edited December 17, 2011 by Coldest Quote

Lucky_n00b Posted December 17, 2011 Posted December 17, 2011 Hello, Since the competition is now ended, I will tell how to I get x8 multiplier using some software, as promised. - Download a program named ThrottleStop 4.00 - run it - click 'turn on' - set 'clock modulation' to 12.5% - if all is correct, Your CPU now has x8 multi Hope it helps Quote
