cyclone Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Damn, that was my idea for another XtremeLabs.org Primus Inter Pares Challenge! -))))) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Naaah. Let's not allow Ivy . Massman, we've already sold our Sandies (the last one these days -)), so you're closing the door at least for one team. Let's allow Ivys? (anyway still have to get those somewhere) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I can sell you a 5.2GHz Sandy, ok? Nice competition and nice time for me to get some 8800 scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Leeghoofd Posted April 3, 2012 Crew Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) We only get our retail Ivys at 29th of April... how can you include them in a competition ? With Sam onboard this is going to be a breeze.... It will be the world against Kenny's expertise !!

d3mox Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I think Massman should disable Ivy from this competition It's too new? For some teams it's too expensive i think ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xoqolatl Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Dammit, I just passed by an 8800 GTS being sold for pocket change earlier today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivanov Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I can sense it will be fun competion :-) I'm really glad, that I recently bought 4 8800 Ultra cards ^^ They will be of use now. I also vote for disabling Ivy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaPaKaH Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 With Sam onboard this is going to be a breeze.... It will be the world against Kenny's expertise !!dude I see you're writing in rhyme .. this contest is shit so I will pass it by3D is too much about CPU .. top scores will go down way too soon when Ivy comes out you'll see for yourself .. you'll have to rebench them all over again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivanov Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Well, but to be honest it's Futuremark fault that their tests are too much CPU dependant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hondacity Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 bench is shit or bench is awesome to pretest gpu before ivy comes out. its gonna be good. just 5-10liters for the gpu and then bam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K404 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 (edited) Like with the Abit compo, I wish participants didn't have to be part of a team, but there aren't many people in my boat Only just noticed this compo. Sam prodded me. Cynical Kenny wonders if this explains some of the PMs i've had over the last couple days..... I think I know which cards will win.....and with what mods................. I'm out, I don't have any CPUs. edit: Do HWB hope to have the 3DMark06 submission problem fixed so competition scores aren't screwed with?

I.M.O.G. Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 @k404: I have my own batch of 8800's I plan to jump in with, and didn't know about this comp when I pm'd you. I was starting work today, but had moisture problems... letting things dry out, and I am hoping the CPU lives at least. The mobo would be easily replaced, if the chip is dead then I am out.
