Default Thermaltake Benchmarking Challenge

Hello Guys,

Thermaltake is interested in running a Benchmark competition soon on your forum exclusively for registered Overclockaholics members.

We were considering something along the lines of a low clock or clock limited contest.

We would like your feedback as to what benchmark would best interest you for the competition.

Prizes will be provided by Thermaltake for the top spots at the end of the submission period.

Please discuss.

Love the low clock idea. Contest are always geared towards overclcocking. How about underclocking. Low BCLK contest please.

we are open to any challenge you would like. Instead of shoving a contest down your throat you tell us how you would like to compete. We'll gather up the top 3 ideas and you guys can decide what bench from there

then you have fun!

and win some cool stuff

IMO, there are only two benches that really work for low clock challenges, SPi 32M and 3D01, and even in the case of 3D01 a cap on nature is needed.

i agree with you there, something like a 1300 or 1400 Nature cap would be required along with a CPU frequency limit as well.

But thats pending that #D01 is the bench you would like to compete with.

Or we can do a Clock limited Spi 32M to see how well you can strip down and tweak your OS.

Lets get creative and most importantly have fun learning how to squeeze every bit of performance from your system.
