Massman Posted March 3, 2013 Author Posted March 3, 2013 Any more information on this fluctuation? Does not seem that good ... Quote
GENiEBEN Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Had same problem with a gap of ~30fps in Ice and ~15fps in Slingshot, but I can't reproduce it. Maybe it's down to drivers? Quote
Splave Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Im not sure whats going on but out of 4 runs I have gotten a 7095 a 7465 7585 and 8250. This is on air 4ghz 2400mhz 8-12-8-28 psc and card 1150/1800. Quote
rbuass Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) I had some issues...but it can happen even in other benchs.... Here worked well.... everytime I got bad scores was just change and fix the settings....so.. will be all right. Pretty nice benchmark With more time... 12k is possible I think Edited March 3, 2013 by rbuass Quote
Splave Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 and im out, not going to kill myself to beta test this bench reinstalled bench, reinstalled drivers good luck guys. Â PS if anyone is still benching kill explorer before you run for a boost Quote
Xtreme Addict Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 I surrender with this benchmark. I don't understand it. The efficient runs are simply "lucky runs" in my opinion, that's all, I thought it needs very big stability to score good but nope, it doesn't. I can not reproduce my best run, which was in fact on low clocks even with much bigger clocks... Quote
GENiEBEN Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Splave, uninstall and then delete the configuration data (you have the path in the error message). Quote
FtW 420 Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Gave it one last try just now & failed. Ran 11.1k & was going to compare the new driver & it would only boot with the vga driver after the install. Trying to fix it & the board stopped getting power. Â I gotta start remembering to at least save the test runs when they are better than my current scores, although it wouldn't help much here. Quote
Xtreme Addict Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) I lost two cpu phases on my mpower, the board is still working but isn't capable of OC. Nothing burned, only PHASE leds show no activity on LED 7 & 8. Â But all in all it was fun :D Thx MSI for the contest Edited March 4, 2013 by Xtreme Addict Quote
Splave Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Splave, uninstall and then delete the configuration data (you have the path in the error message). thanks mate, good to know for the future Quote
Gyrock Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Hi Xtreme Addict-san What happened to your submission? It disappeared... Quote
Xtreme Addict Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 Hey Gyrock -san  Look in this link  http://hwbot.org/forum/showthread.php?p=229761#post229761 Quote
Gyrock Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 I read the thread... I really feel sorry for that... Quote
Massman Posted March 5, 2013 Author Posted March 5, 2013 Okay, updating MSI later today (awaiting some information) with the winner info. They will make a news item about it later this week, which you will be able to find on the front page. Â - Winner: Rbuass - Runner-up: Gyrock - Lucky Draw: Cagrimir (for this submission: http://hwbot.org/submission/2353621) Â As some of you already know, there was a problem with Xtreme Addict's result, which was done with an non-MSI graphics card. For those that like to rant and complain, you can check out the thread here. Even though the result is not valid and is removed from the competition, since the competition stage was confusing MSI will prepare a second Z77A-GD80 for Xtreme Addict. Â Sorry for the confusion and let's do it perfect next time! Quote
Xtreme Addict Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) That's a very good solution, I like it But I was also fine with the solution, that I could try to score 2nd with Lightning, with no hard feelings if I fail. But it's easier for me  Please next time add all limitations in stage details, most of us look mostly on those requirements, even add rule "ES not allowed" cause almost in every contest topic there are questions about it even obvious info, it's better to write more points with simple words than catching rules from marketing press release  Examples:  "MSI board only" "MSI gpu only" "only single gpu" "only Z77 boards" "use only Mpower Z77 to score for prizes" "all MSI Z77 boards are valid for lucky draw" "no ES" "use special background" "link to ORB required" "tess off is allowed in AMD drivers" "photo of benching rig is required" "use only hw which was launched and available before contest launch" "Titan is not allowed" "submit result before 10/02/2013 to take part in lucky draw" "all tweaks have to be valid with hwbot rules and terms"  I can't think about more, those rules/limitations in stage page would be very clear and there wouldn't be any doubts Edited March 5, 2013 by Xtreme Addict Quote
Massman Posted March 7, 2013 Author Posted March 7, 2013 MSI has the info of the winners, prizes and so on. Updates will follow shortly. It's been less than 4 days since the competition closed, this is the normal amount of time it takes to arrange everything. Quote
