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"
CPU-Z validation link that mirrors the date,time u completed the benchmark w/your name on it must be in your sumbission post.
AGAIN, Uploading to the forum is not necessary, having a clearly viewable screenshot IS!
This is a perfect example of a screenshot:
