October 8, 201213 yr 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
October 8, 201213 yr Uh there is a good chance to win something, if Christian Ney cannot start his loads of rigs... Edited October 8, 201213 yr by fuzz3l
October 8, 201213 yr I don't mean to sound like an ass, but didn't we already have a 939 01 stage? or was that 03?
October 8, 201213 yr Might be a good thing to tell what benchmark you plan on using. It's not mentioned on the entire challenge page. EDIT- Nevermind. I see the benchmarks on the stage pages. Edited October 9, 201213 yr by Mr.Scott
October 9, 201213 yr 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
October 9, 201213 yr You thinking of the 06 one back in Feb? 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??
October 9, 201213 yr 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. Finally some use of my AGP cards, but I'm not sure if I will have time for all this. Edited October 9, 201213 yr by I.nfraR.ed
October 10, 201213 yr 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+
October 11, 201213 yr I take it that the second stage has no restrictions on GPU number or cores allowed? Thought I would ask before setting up anything...
October 11, 201213 yr If it doesn't fit just push harder... Lol, thats an good idea about CPUs that dont fit
October 12, 201213 yr For AGP stage are there some limits? I mean CPU clock, manufactor or something else?
October 12, 201213 yr 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?
