Crew pro Posted June 13, 2012 Crew Share Posted June 13, 2012 not sure if this is posted elsewhere, excuse if it is, just saw this on Australian website ----------------- Update for the Grand Final: Total 16 teams: 3 from America's, 5 from EMEA and 4 from APAC, presumably another 1 from each region through the Lords of Overclocking contest.. That leaves one place TBD. Confirmed Date for Grand Final: September 28. Focused product: X79 for MB, VGA:TBD Interesting choice going with X79.. That would point to a 3Dmark11 stage for VGA. Presumably the CPU benchmark/s will have a multi limitation so massive CPU clocks are a moot point. Cold bugging will be interesting. Last year no torches were allowed (venue requirement) so a big powerful hairdryer would be needed in that case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hondacity Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 no limitation on the cpu imo. as always heatgun(welder type lol) is the choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.Beier Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Has anyone noticed Lab501 didn't enter the EMEA qualifier? I already went crying to Monstru about this, he then lifted me up and padded me on the back stating 'stay calm, we will go, its ok, dont cry' Thats pretty much how it went down : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Timing of the final is confirmed: 28-30 sept. What's left is HW (assuming 680 lightning) and the new judge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K404 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) I'd vote for Sam. That'd be AMAZING! Team X: Disqualified. Reason? Running 3DMark11. But this is a 3DMark11 competition! Team X: Banned for one year. Reason? Arguing with judge. Edited June 26, 2012 by K404 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint19 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 cool thanks MM, Mixed regions, same as last year? or is there a switch up to add some excitement?

This is going to be bloody :D Anyway, what's the challenge this year I wonder? Could it be something like 3DMark11 Multi-GPU all-out? It's really interesting to see multi-GPU setups like LOC 2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splave Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I agree they are interesting to see but then that just ensures the rich will beat the poor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 cool thanks MM, Mixed regions, same as last year? or is there a switch up to add some excitement? Uhm, maybe I should say "unmixed" regions in that case. Let's just say there are three more tickets for EMEA this year (j/k) Mixed Regions, ouch! This is going to be bloody :D Anyway, what's the challenge this year I wonder? Could it be something like 3DMark11 Multi-GPU all-out? It's really interesting to see multi-GPU setups like LOC 2010 I asked if it was single GPU and they did not want to comment on that ... given the XPower II was their first official 4-Way board, who knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
