I got rid of all my AMD stuff.............

Looking at 1090 and a 965 though .......... they are almost to inexpencive to ignor, and with the new rev breating life back into these chips could be fun .......

College tuition has been very very cruel to my benching funds

955 BE and 965 BE FTW. 955 is worth more. You can pick them both up for roughly $109-$129.99.

I like BZs idea... with multi benches and points assigned for placement in each category

benchzowner's #2 idea looks good.
please don't do something where ONLY sandy bitch can compete.

While that may be true, it doesn't have to be. Especially when the OP asked YOU what parameters you would like for the contest.

I'm fully aware of that but lets be realistic. The majority have sandybridge while it appears two that have posted in this thread don't. What would make a better contest catering to the majority or the couple? I wish there was a contest that could make everyone happy as well as everyone compete. There is nothing more than I would like to see than an AMD contest here. If and when there is one count me in.

how about limiting to 478 sockets with AGP and K6 procs? That would be unigue

Any single socket Intel platform is fine with me. Don't own AMD and can't affort to buy it.

Run all 3Dmark 3D benches, add the points together - highest points win.

Regardless of what we do the reality is one of 4 or 5 people are gonna win anyway

I'm not un-happy about anything. As a matter of fact, I'm quite happy just being a member here with the privileges that I have. I was just expressing my opinion is all.
Whatever is decided on will be fine. If I can compete, I will. If not, oh well, maybe next time. I'm good with that.
