Perica_barii Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 Vivi you are preparing hard for second round.... Quote
DrWeez Posted June 23, 2013 Posted June 23, 2013 Vivi you are preparing hard for second round.... not as hard as you Quote
Bobnova Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Good luck editing ES out of SS and not noticing. There's a reason CPU-Z centers text Doesn't seem hard to me to count pixels and get it centered with ES removed. Quote
redmax Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 I was told the 780 Lightning wouldn't be available until August. Maybe that was a the world wide availability date or just something they made up. Either way crossin my fingers. Quote
Gunslinger Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 I was told the 780 Lightning wouldn't be available until August. Maybe that was a the world wide availability date or just something they made up. Either way crossin my fingers. I hope it appears in July, it's the only way I'll be able to participate in this round. :celebration: Quote
driftingforlife Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 End of july at the EARLIEST for the 780 samples. Quote
zzolio Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 hw must be available before the competition starts otherwise it is not allowed Quote
Mikecdm Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 hw must be available before the competition starts otherwise it is not allowed GTX 780 is already available. A lightning isn't, but the reference card is. Quote
rbuass Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 Even 780 Lightning is available, I don't believe it can beat a Titan... almost sure that the finalists will have a Titan scores. Quote
Gunslinger Posted June 24, 2013 Posted June 24, 2013 GTX 780 is already available retail, not sure why a sub model such as 780 Lightning wouldn't be allowed to be used, pretty silly IMO. After all this whole deal is about marketing for MSI... Quote
Massman Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 The rules are clear, no? If the card is not available at the beginning of the competition, it cannot be used. - GTX 780 Reference = available => can be used - GTX 780 Lightning = not available => can not be used Doesn't matter what marketing or advertising value the card has.

icebob Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 that ain't right, 780 are avail so any flavor should be allowed... show me in the rules where ref and non ref cards are mentioned... Quote
Gunslinger Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 (edited) lol, whatever. You guys have fun in round 2, hope you don't roast too many Titan's in the name of marketing. Edited June 25, 2013 by Gunslinger Quote
icebob Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 to follow your logic, if costa rica haswell hit the shelves mid July, only malay chips can be use during the semis? Quote

l0ud_sil3nc3 Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 I give up Totally cool with that:) However before giving up, just wanted to know if 2600/2700K is allowed in B class. Quote
l0ud_sil3nc3 Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 to follow your logic, if costa rica haswell hit the shelves mid July, only malay chips can be use during the semis? All ready out apparently, I will troll the local store tomorrow and see what is going on as mine should have them since I am very close to the San Jose Fry's where the first pics of a retail Costa cpu were re posted at XS. Quote
rbuass Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 From what I know, 2600K is not allowed, because even is older than 3570K, is stronger since 4C/8T > 4C/4T. (to benchs like 3DM11, Cinebench, Vantage ...) Also.. nobody asked and used to 1st stage, so, why allow to 2nd stage? Quote
icebob Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 This for class B, benches changed from prelim, and rule say any 1155 cpu 3570 or lower, 3770 not allowed.... so 2600/2700 being prior gen, should be allowed... Quote
