Why was the q6600 not allowed in the kentsfield stage ? but the qx6700 is ? the Q 6600 is so much easier to get ahold of lol

Q6600 released in 2007 while QX6700 released in 2006!

Thanx dude

 

[Dead Things]

Can Xeon E5645 be added...

Wondering if there has been any thought given to my *polite* request as of yet?

Added. Sorry for the delay .

[Dead Things]

Thanks & no sweat. Will you also be adding it to SC1 and SC2?

[Leeghoofd]

What about Titan now in SC3 ? yes or no ?

 

Last I read was TITAN was only allowed in SC4.

 

Plz add it to the competition rules if it's allowed or not... not everybody wades through 15 pages...

[Massman]

Sorry guys, getting caught up with meetings this week. I'll update the Team Cup info pages tonight.

 

Titan allowed, yes. Not where the limitation says "must be available in 2012".

[Leeghoofd]

So we have to rebench everything then and test what works or not...

[Massman]

Most of the stages are CPU limited anyway; no Titan will change anything about that.

[Leeghoofd]

I think from bloomfield on we will get big differences... between eg 7970 cards and the TITAN...

[Gamer]

You can also see a big difference in s775, about 2000 points between 5870 and 7970.

[Bobnova]

I expect there to be a difference across the board. CPU bottleneck takes a lot to hit the point where twice the GPU performance doesn't help.

I agree. I run all of my cards on Vantage with the 980X because it helps me beat scores run with a 3770K and the like. I absolutely guarantee you that there are instances where CPU + Titan is going to beat CPU + 7970 outside of the range that CPU tweaking can make up.

 

Bottom line, Titan will help scores, no matter much it's role is deceivingly downplayed. It released after the competition started and should not be allowed. This has always been the case. And my team has quite a few Titans...

[Massman]

Alrighty then, by super popular demand let's not allow the Titan then. Removing the 8 results from the competition. All complaints can be send to "allowtitaninteamcup@hwbot.org".

 

Now, let's get back to benching!

[Gamer]

 

Now, let's get back to benching!

 

Have you?

[Leeghoofd]

I always get the invalid recipient error from Outlook...

[Guest Arne Saknussemm]

I entered this comp with a submission 62000+ points and it doesn't show up amongst top places ?? The option to enter score came up automatically when submitting so I downloaded background and entered....

 

No big deal...but something doesn't work...or something escapes me?

[GENiEBEN]

^ Your team has a better score http://hwbot.org/submission/2360302

[Massman]

Another heads up regarding the prizes.

 

On thursday I am meeting with Cooler Master to finalize the competition details. Cooler Master is the company that arranged all the prizes and will be taking care of the winners .
