TerraRaptor Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 whoa, I will try to take part in #3 & #6 rushes Quote
Christian Ney Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Can't go to France to grab my rigs for the next 3 weeks (2 days ago I was in France though FUUUUUUUUUUUUUU), too bad this one sounds load of fun. Next time announce it earlier Quote
fuzz3l Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 (edited) Uh there is a good chance to win something, if Christian Ney cannot start his loads of rigs... Edited October 8, 2012 by fuzz3l Quote
Rasparthe Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Like this idea, thanks for feeding the addiction! Quote
knopflerbruce Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 I don't mean to sound like an ass, but didn't we already have a 939 01 stage? or was that 03? Quote
just_nuke_em Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 You thinking of the 06 one back in Feb? Quote
Mr.Scott Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 (edited) Might be a good thing to tell what benchmark you plan on using. It's not mentioned on the entire challenge page. Â EDIT- Nevermind. I see the benchmarks on the stage pages. Edited October 9, 2012 by Mr.Scott Quote
kikicoco1334 Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 I may actually stand a chance now since I just put my finger on a GTX580 Gonna try bake my 6800Ultra back alive for 03 Quote
knopflerbruce Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 You thinking of the 06 one back in Feb? Â Possibly. I remember fighting my ass off for that one:p 01 will be even more GPU bound I bet. The question is... what CPU to use, and can I get Ln2 in time?? Quote
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 9, 2012 Posted October 9, 2012 (edited) One with a large cache Remember Opteron 144@3.1GHz beating Venice at 3.4. Not sure about dual-core vs single core. Dual core should be better, but if it's too gpu-bound, I don't know. Â Finally some use of my AGP cards, but I'm not sure if I will have time for all this. Edited October 9, 2012 by I.nfraR.ed Quote
knopflerbruce Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 I have no idea... but I guess you need ~10% higher speed with a single than a dual. I can 06 at 3550-3600, so I'm thinking I can do a tad more for 01, although it's a weird chip. How much FX57 power do I need to match that+ Quote
Rasparthe Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 If it doesn't fit just push harder... Quote
d3mox Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 in socket 939 can i use am3+ maybe? Â Wtf Quote
Rasparthe Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 I take it that the second stage has no restrictions on GPU number or cores allowed? Thought I would ask before setting up anything... Quote
Moose83 Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 If it doesn't fit just push harder... Â Lol, thats an good idea about CPUs that dont fit Quote
Saito Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 i always thought am3 has 939 pins looks like i was out by one lol Quote
Moose83 Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 For AGP stage are there some limits? I mean CPU clock, manufactor or something else? Quote
just_nuke_em Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 For AGP stage are there some limits? I mean CPU clock, manufactor or something else? The benchmark limitations will be revealed on Oct 17, 2012. Isn't the suspense fun? Quote
Moose83 Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 No fun for my banc account I have to prepare more stuff, than i need Quote
