October 3, 201312 yr Excuse me, but how is hwbot going to enforce the rule where everyone has to use Kingston memory? As far as I know, they never made any retail HyperX using single-sided MFR or PSC, which are the top choices for stages #1 and #2.
October 3, 201312 yr Crew But they made values with psc, hyperx with bbse and 2333 t1 that clock like good psc. And afaik, you will also find MFR on Kingstom memory like 2800c12 and 2133s and so on Edited October 3, 201312 yr by websmile

October 3, 201312 yr - system picture- memory picture (of sticker) - spd memory tab Also, engineers will check if the claimed result is within expectations. Kingston engineers my ass, for reasons mentioned by websmile above. - in a proper system, memory will be on LN2 so system picture won't tell anything - memory picture doesn't actually say that Kingston memory was in use - SPD can be reflashed Cheating memory brand is very simple, do you really think noone will do it with $10k on the line?
October 3, 201312 yr Crew this calls for the ban hammer lmao - no, you won´t, you are simply to honest for this
October 3, 201312 yr I just locally bought a s775 DDR3 board for SPD flashing, I won't cheat as well.
October 3, 201312 yr Elpida D-die (BDBG). I think there are the best choise for pi32m... But my best cpu can do 6,1g for pi32m so i´m out if someone have interest in kingston hyper x 2333 MHz cl9 i have two kit´s of this!
October 4, 201312 yr Hmm, Cooler Master power supply needed? I know the CM is sponsor and so on, but this limitation is really not cool :(
October 4, 201312 yr Yeah I get it, but this limitation could be on final stage on CES, not for qualifiing. But I'm respecting all rules and dismiss this competition. Anyway, good luck guys!
October 7, 201312 yr Here is the link to the official wallpaper: http://media.kingston.com/images/hyperx/oc-competition/HX-overclocking-wallpaper-1920px1024.jpg Edited October 8, 201312 yr by Massman
October 7, 201312 yr We should be glad that there is another live event In my opinion it's 100% fair when companies sponsor OC contest, they have full right to give restrictions to their products to , of course when there are no restrictions - it's more interesting, but be honest, for 2D you don't need 1500W PSU, 600-700W Coolermaster should be more than okay and cost of it is very low comparing to other parts and you don't need to bin PSU In this contest you shouldn't worry about PSU but about CPU/MEMORY
