[HITandRUN]

Don’t want to be picky or anything but the first entered score uses CPUZ 1.51 instead the 1.52 stated in the rules. I don’t know how tight you are with the rules? :) Also on the top is says Core 2 Quad competition and the first entry uses a Core 2 Duo CPU. Does that mean we are allowed to use both? It’s a little misleading. :blink: :thumbsup:

[Kal-EL]

Thx buddy, cpuz-1.52 is whats needed for the competition.
Any Core 2 cpu may enter.

There is but a single score currently posted in the core2 section and by default of only submission, ranks #1 with incorrect cpu-z. It'll soon change as people get off their duffs to submit scores.

Congrats on your premium membership btw :D

[rickss69]

I will update and re-run bench. Thanks

[Kal-EL]

I will update and re-run bench. Thanks

Roger dat homie, if the 48 hours notice comes up and passes and you're the only bencher, you'll be the defacto recipient of a brand spankin new BFG GTX285 graphics card :D

[rickss69]

Kal - Please delete the previous score as I have updated cpu-z and re-run the bench...with an improvement on the score btw. :) Thanks

[Kal-EL]

Noted!

[HITandRUN]

Roger dat homie, if the 48 hours notice comes up and passes and you're the only bencher, you'll be the defacto recipient of a brand spankin new BFG GTX285 graphics card :D

Are you deciding when the 48 hours are up or is it 48 hours from the first valid entry? If you decide you should wait until we have some more entries. It would be a shame to give this precious card away without a battle. :D:rofl

[Kal-EL]

I've done stranger things, lol.

But yah, I'll be deciding when the round is ending and provide a 48 hour window to benchers to finish up their Round 1 benches.

[punx223]

wow... i gotta get my rig put back together and dammit i hope she still works lol

[punx223]

nice run rick btw

[rickss69]

nice run rick btw

I have no way of knowing without something to reference to, but thanks.

[punx223]

your runnning a very good fsb and I will be at a disadvantage being DDRII but dont take that for granted as I will hold nothing back!!!

im coming for you :morpheus:

[69_Goat]

Hey Rickster, you forgot the little notpad thingy in that second submission.

[sofos1990]

Very nice results until now, not the best but nice!
Keep 32Ming it lol :)

[punx223]

hey guys i saw the discussion on the other thread.... since the core2 is ok with 1.52 cpuz

because i dont have a copy of 1.51... i have 1.52...

if its required can someone drop me a copy?

[punx223]

btw i will be doing my best but something is sick/hurt in my rig... i cant even run 6x multi

really disappointing that we have to 100 post count to enter the contest .

Do you want to open a real contest or only your active members contest ?

I think it's a invitation to everybody spam on your forum because they want to enter the contest . increasing the post count is not so hard but forum credit will increase by it members articles , discussions and ... . it's a way that you deny pro overclockers like hipro or ... to enter this contest .

It was my idea but forgive me if were rude or impolite .

[rickss69]

btw i will be doing my best but something is sick/hurt in my rig... i cant even run 6x multi

You are not as far back as you think punx. 6 multi is very hard to run. It is all a balancing act. If it's any consolation, I'm having more than my share of problems at the moment.

[punx223]

thanks buddy... i used to be able to run 6x but this thing is as unstable as they come now.... i was able to get a halfway decent score, but i want better lol

[rickss69]

That was a very good run Rommy! Now go away...:taunt:

[Kal-EL]

Try to stay positive Shahryar. Member rewards are generally based on member contributions to the community. Occasionallly, contests will be geared to the masses.
Do you want to open a real contest or only your active members contest ?
It depends on what contest I wanna run at any given time. All the contests I run are real, the prizes are real and the competitors are real. Visit the contest section on the left side bar for more details.
I think it's a invitation to everybody spam on your forum because they want to enter the contest . increasing the post count is not so hard but forum credit will increase by it members articles , discussions and ... . it's a way that you deny pro overclockers like hipro or ... to enter this contest .
The rules for each contest change and since the beginning I've said "If you keep participating and contributing on the forum, I will TOO" I've also said many times "Post count requirements will continue to increase". The door for spammerz and uninvited new members has been shut. If you don't have a referal from an active member in good standing, you will not be permitted access to the forum. Read the rules of the forum if you want access to this community. If you spam because you want prizes, step off a high ledge. If you contribute because you like it here, you're post count will rise.
It was my idea but forgive me if were rude or impolite .

Thank you for you input on the way the contests are being run, feedback is important. At this time, I don't agree with you on any of your points.

Couldn't put it any better than that supes. Shahryar_NEO, I do understand your frustrations being a non-native english speaker. As Kal-EL said, we aren't here to have a bunch of spammers to increase our post count. This place was made for like minded people to have our own place to hang out, AND push people over the edge... cool2

If you look at it from another angle, the post count requirements as they keep increasing for each contest, keep the spammers away or at the least make it obvious at their motives. Thank you very much for your very valuable input. I hope that you see where we are coming from.

[Shahryar_NEO]

Thanks for you reply . :thumbsup:

Personally I think that if it's overclocking contest it has to choice the best overclocker with only technical limitation like clock speed and ... . because your forum is friendly form and everybody checked it will love it to returned but this work in my thoughts is a filter that you can only choose your best overclocker in your active members . :blush:

btw , I'm really happy that you open many contests one after other . I try to participate on it and have a great time with my friends here :Hi:

EDIT: sorry didnt read the 3rd page first

[karmakazi]

Sorry to double post, but I think you guys would love the new HCE @hwbot. Im a member of the staff/development forums there so I can fill in some "top secret details." Please dont leak it around out of respect to hwbot crew (I only post here cuz this is a closed forum).

Members will be able to setup competitions restricting clocks, hardware, etc. Give it a customized Title (I.e. OCA 32M LCC 2009) and the winners will get specialized trophys for their hwbot profiles. hwbot sponsored contests the winners will get hwboints too (or compboints or sometihng). Its going to be a very cool platform for sure!

THx for the inside scoop brother, we're honored :D

I posted in the hwbot forums when I first caught wind of this new engine and details were pretty much SHHHHHH DON"T TELL, lol. It sounds very cool, interesting and awesome. When we first opened up shop here at Overclockaholics, we were kicking around the idea of approaching Rich to license the hwbot code for mini-competitions and to track our members benchmarks here at overclockaholics.com. If you get a chance to discuss it with him, see if it'd be feasible to implement a small engine for forums like us to have a site specific ranking system for our members.

They are going to implement a function that users can submit for verification/validation on hwbot but it will update the proper user forums, based on some sort of API set. I.e. you will submit on the bot but the "bot" will update OCA with screenshots and hardware info. Very cool idea for sure.

I would be really doubtful that RB would license the hwbot code to anyone, unless it was in a smaller restricted/neutered form. Even if he was willing to do so, hes such a busy guy you wouldnt see it till 2011 probably lol.

[DrNip]

Sweet!

[karmakazi]

Also, I sure hope my asus rampage extreme gets back in time to compete in the S775 rankings.... HURRY ASUS!

Yah, I was thinking of a small watered down engine for license to forums. But I also realized the code load he's under and said F-it, we'll keep track by hand, lol. :Dizzy:

[crio]

I have a serious doudt that Shahryar_NEO time at 32M was done at 3200...No tweaks have benn made (see available memmory) and RAM are at 1200 with 5-5-5 DDR2...
Sorry to report that but i believe it is not legal (regardless of the post limit)

look at the start times
are you sure you are running LSC
sorry to ask but the difference is astonishing to me

start time is an indication of LSC not running or being at much different clocks. i cant think of of others unless you are really working on some weird wazza but why such a huge difference :shock:

I'm afraid I must concur...:thumbdown:

[dinos22]

rick why dont you test with XP man
why are you wasting those prescious seconds on W7?

[dinos22]

i think when you start getting low 13m times you are on the right path basically so there is a lot more tweaking required to get there

[rickss69]

rick why dont you test with XP man
why are you wasting those prescious seconds on W7?

No matter now lol. My phase unit just broke in half. I will have to test it another time. Now where did I put sdumper's phone number....:sign14:

[Chuchnit]

OUCH ohcrap I'm sure he'll fix you right up :) Care to elaborate on "broke in half"?

[rickss69]

OUCH ohcrap I'm sure he'll fix you right up :) Care to elaborate on "broke in half"?

The tray it all is mounted on shattered (plastic). It trips the breaker now when I try to start up. Always has been a shaker on start-up...don't know if thats normal or not. I'm sure Scott can take care of it...just pissy happening right now.

[rickss69]

Better news - The unit does start now, but it will require some repairs. I needed something else to do...:D

[dinos22]

lol crio you noob :p

[crio]

What???:D :D :D

[dinos22]

you forgot reg tweaks on first run didnta ya :P

[Buckeye]

No matter now lol. My phase unit just broke in half. I will have to test it another time. Now where did I put sdumper's phone number....:sign14:

Just saw this, do you have any pic's of this. I would love to see a Phase unit broken in half :Dizzy:

What happened with it, suction line break off ?

[crio]

Just did some new and done better waza....Also run RAM better.

[Kal-EL]

[Shahryar_NEO]

Unfortunately crio thinks that everybody who gets good Score/Clock is cheater !:blink:

do you really think that i cheated for that first run ?! :blink:

I think it's so normal for that clocks but if you have doubt about it i could capture a video of my benching and upload it for you to be sure that i'm not a cheater . :thumbsup:

Kal-EL , do you delete my post becaue you think that i'm cheating ?!

IF yes , please provide me a way to prove to you that i'm not cheater . :eek:

Round 1 ends in 48 hours or at 0700 hours on Friday, July 31, 2009, @ 0700 hours, Hawaii Time.

[crio]

I told ya,this time without copy-waza and maxmem done plus the ddr2 modules is a least suspisious.That's the way i see it.
I see something suspisious i report it.That's the way it goes...whether you like it or not....I don;t care

[Shahryar_NEO]

if you think that tweaks are only Coppy-wazza and maxmem . so i couldn't do anything for you .

i'll give you the video to be sure about it . maybe i'll share my tweaks after the contest .

Kal-EL : if there is any way to prove expect capturing movie tell me please :thumbsup:

[punx223]

hey man i tried, all i can say is without 6x533 and being ddr2 so less mem bandwidth.... i am OWNZORED

[Shahryar_NEO]

hey man i tried, all i can say is without 6x533 and being ddr2 so less mem bandwidth.... i am OWNZORED

I'll test today again and see what will be happen . :blink:

[crio]

As i told you the main 32M tweaks is waza-maxmem.Didn't do that and ur Windows don't seem cut off sooo?That's the way i see it.I mentioned above that if you don't like it i don't care.

[sofos1990]

One more main tweak is LSC! OK to be honest I think that some registry tweaks should be included to "main tweaks":D

[thebanik]

I cant find the damn 1.6 Superpi anywhere on the net, any linki plz

[sofos1990]

Here (http://www.techpowerup.com/wizzard/super_pi_mod.exe) you are!

[Kal-EL]

Did everyone get a chance to read this portion of the contest rules? Please answer if you did.

[punx223]

i read it and followed it...

maybe thats why my score is significantly lower?

[crustytheclown]

I think i'm gonna give it a shot.I'm getting my camera ready!!!

[Shahryar_NEO]

as I said before i tested again today with video capturing for the proof and of course new settings . :thumbsup:

[V2-V3]

dude, my R1E just does not like dual channel memory right now.... at stock it works but dual channel it will lock on DETDRAM weird thing is that with single channel i can get 2200MHz.... never been able to bench on X48 above 2100MHz usually 2000MHz is a problem booting into OS!

[crustytheclown]

i did some test with Superpi1.5 this evening...have full proof with video of both screen and motherboard(no tweat it bull$h/t) from booting to screenshot...I'm currently testing 1.6:)

congrats nice efficiency . :thumbsup:

[Splave]

shar, jesus man trying to get 100 posts in or what lol take it easy bro.

[crustytheclown]

Jusy did an untweaked 13m23sec and keeps going down!!!this time i had cpu-z 1.49($x@*%)and two mem tabs...again full proof video...
I don't worry though

http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/9259/capture3ggw.jpg

[Chuchnit]

I want your waza skills crusty. Look at that available memory :D

[crustytheclown]

At these low speeds waza is very tricky.High available memory doesn't always mean lower time...trust me :)

[Kal-EL]

I'm gonna go ahead and make a command decision here. Its obvious that many benchers are running scaled down os to obtain their best possible times. This means "no internet" and they are carrying their screenshots to other computers to get cpu-z and tpu validated. This is gonna be deemed "ACCEPTABLE". Remember we have an honor system, nuff said.

One item that needs addressing is V2-V3's validated Superpi V 1.5 result. WTF? does the validator always work with 1.5? Regardless, V2-v3 will have to run on v.1.6 to make a qualifying run.

- Additionally, I've decided to keep the combatants from each round and carry them over to the succeeding rounds since we have so little combatants. Points system will remain in tact. This means a loser from the 1st round may have a chance at redemption in Rounds 2 and 3 FTW.
~Any questions?~

thank you soups, are we allowed hardware changes between rounds? as i may have to swap mobo's as this one i believe is FUBAR

[Kal-EL]

You may only change ur keyboard and mouse once. You can change ur gpu unlimited amounts. Your cpu and motherboard, however, must remain core 2.

[crio]

Coming down to the last day i think...I need to sit down and bench.....:D :D
With an hour bench no work is done,

[Kal-EL]

I've been getting a shitload of pm's regarding the lame screenshots that have been submitted thusfar in the contest. Also complaints of it being unclear if it is o.k. to super-impose screenys taken on a non-internet os onto a internet capable os. At first this was acceptable, but it opened too many doors. Some benchers werent sure so they benched what they brung, others chose to play the gray from the git go. I can see problems arising and it'll be no fun for anyone at the end of the day. We live and learn in anything new so here we are learning.


SO ROUND 1 is being extended to Wednesday, August 5, 2009, at 0700 hours Hawaii Time. You have until this time to get your screenys in on time. CPU Tweaker is being dropped from the i7 screeny requirments so we have continuity across the contests. Its not a popular decision, I know.



ROUND 1 REVISED SCREENY REQUIREMENTS



-Screenshot with the following all in one screeny (No internet? Get some): (REVISED!!!!!)

Super_PI_Mod_1.6 w/Validator 32M
techpowerup validator showing valid run
CPU-Z 1.51 w/processor, mainboard, mem, spd,
Text document w/ "Name, date, time, score, "Overclockaholics SPI_32M Challenge"
AGAIN, Uploading to the forum is not necessary, having a clearly viewable screenshot IS!
CPU-Z validation link that mirrors the date,time u completed the benchmark w/your name on it must be in your sumbission post.


This is a perfect example of a screenshot:

I plan on sharing the things I have learned in a very similar style to what vivi did with his 3d2001 thread, and I hope it will become a working progress where others can post their experience.

:morpheus:

[punx223]

all I can say is holy shit.... i wont it... i thought for sure someone was gonna drop in last second and screw me....

BTW didnt wanna say anything until after the competition but had someone swooped in to beat me i woulda been defenseless My e8600 compleetly shit out on me the next run after my last.


i cant thank crust enough for getting me started on tweaks, once he gave me some guidance, hell i couldnt get WAZA to work, i will figure taht out once i get another CPU but otherwise i started trying all sorts of things.... I will be putting togethre a thread for us to use with all my experiences as to what worked and what helped,

I really hope all of you will try it and also add to my thread with what you have done and what has helped

im planning on putting together my thoughts/performance review.... but i do have to wait for cpu

[DrNip]

HAHA nice one Shannon! Don't trip if you blow out the RAM as I have done it once already. I'll just RMA it again! Remember the one card overclocks better than the other too that I have marked.

Also, you might work that eraser a lil better as I see alot of spots where there are vulnerabilities. I'm talking around the caps and socket area. I'm bettin though you ain't done and will finish her up when you drop the CPU in it.

yeah, just some pre prep, to save a lil time once cpu is in, but that is only the beginning :D but awesome catch, if i was a noob that woulda been a BOOM moment :morpheus:

[punx223]

Hey guys im gonna bring this thread back just to say something that I dont think I stated... Ive sat and got all excited about the new card and everything, But I do wanna say one key thing...

By all rights crustytheclown beat my 4.2ghz score at the 4ghz mark, so by all rights crusty did win the competition. I dunno how I can say thanks to him for basically giving me the win by not entering but in my book he did win, and teh fact taht he would give me the chance to get such a cool prize when he could have easily blazed by me speaks volumes to his character, and not to mention the fact that he gave a guy trying to come up in the overclocking world a chance to gain some ground...


Not only that he also took the time to give me some major pointers as to which way to go on many settings to help get me faster times, and that too speaks volumes to his character.

Hats off to you Crusty :Hi: you have my upmost respect :thumbsup:

:morpheus:
