It took some digging, but I had to pull out this old benchmark:

Now, I'll take back my 8th place please..

Wow...talk bout desperation to keep on the top 10. Men digging up vapourware and all. Isn't competition awesome?

Philosophical45 · « **Reply #342 on:** April 11, 2009, 10:37:20 PM »

shouldn't your residence in the list reflect your "current" specs? just humbly asking...

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #343 on:** April 11, 2009, 11:19:33 PM »

Well philo, I was wondering the same thing myself...

Saxito Pau · « **Reply #344 on:** April 11, 2009, 11:40:14 PM »

Yes, it is "current". I just never got around to posting it up. It is not different to a person receiving an award after he/she dies.

Hey, if you had the hardware on hand, built it up, stress-tested and benched it, then your scores deserve
to be there if you want it to be.

There have been people demanding to have their scores included, who know FULL well that half the parts
in their rig were 'borrowed'. (You know who you are). We included those too ent?

My views on this may not jive with everyone, but we include all the scores.
You don't like it, then don't compete.

That is all...

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #346 on:** April 12, 2009, 12:31:39 AM »

Well, the king talk...talk done.

lol @ borrowed parts. call names na arc

Nephilim · « **Reply #347 on:** April 12, 2009, 07:45:38 AM »

i agree with arc. the borrowed parts thing is no different than getting a sponsorship of sort. as long as is not ninja thing then we cool.

but may i suggest placing in the scores a note saying that parts were borrowed or even that the 2 ppl pooled resources to bench as a team? i mean. imagine what woulda happen if any of the 4870x2 men went xfyre, much score rapeage

yuh know...gatt could well host a lil OC competition.

get the retailers across the country to donate parts and such, much blatant product placement here and there, host it in a mall or sum...lil 300/400 registration for the team, use that for the prize pool...hmmmm....anyone?

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #348 on:** April 12, 2009, 08:02:07 AM »

Good idea neph @ oc competish. But I can think of only one retailer that could supply the kind of enthusiast gear needed...

TriniXaeno · « **Reply #349 on:** April 12, 2009, 09:26:44 AM »

lol, I don't know what milkshake doing in this thread, she has an xps laptop, hardly a top rig contender.

@ Hard O/C, exactly, it is a competition. Just online (and ain't nothing wrong with that)

I'm between two minds on the borrowed parts bit. For instance, imagine if all of the gatt admin (and that's about 12 of us) decided to make a big weekend lime by arc, "borrowed" his parts and benchmarked "our" rig. Now you'll have 12 men in the top 20 whose scores were augmented by Arcs 4ghz beast of an OC. Didn't spend a dime of our own money, nor much effort save for re-seating his mobo/cpu in our case and clicking 3dmark 2006.

Not exactly fair.

The more I think about it, not fair at all.

On the other hand, it will be difficult, if not impossible for anyone to know that we "borrowed" those parts, making it hard to police or enforce the rule.

Short of spontaneous audits at a man's house to check to see if his rig is legit, lol.

Tricky situation indeed.

Arc, what you doing this weekend?, "forget the salt, neighbour, I come to borrow yuh cpu!"

"So it is written, so it shall be done."

Nephilim...that competition idea is a pretty good one, but as the goodly Cap'n pointed out, getting all that hardware in one place
might prove somewhat problematic.

As for the points raised by NGW, well, you must be a mind-reader.

I have a whole RIG yuh could borrow.

Crixx_Creww · « **Reply #351 on:** April 12, 2009, 04:19:59 PM »

certification.

I remember we used to do these OC competitions at the GLs, so man have witness that they rig is what they say it is.

Print ah lil certificate.

Easy, make a man stand in front of a camera holding 2 forms of valid national id and holding all ORIGINAL receipts for parts in his claimed rig...

aren't we getting a bit carried away here?

Sax, you see what trouble you causing?

and his grand mother confirming his identity also

why not just use gpuz and cpu validations? or orb links or such?

GPU - Visiontek HD4870 (Gpu clock 790MHZ / Core clock 1100MHz)
MB - eVga 112-CK-NF75-K1

why the weak oc on the cpu? (

love that i can call man oc weak now

*glee*)

SPK · « **Reply #358 on:** April 14, 2009, 06:17:19 PM »

Scores and list updated, remember this is a top 20 list Crixx...

kgfalby · « **Reply #359 on:** April 14, 2009, 06:36:10 PM »

Hey!!!!!!! Don't dis the oc Crixx. Anything higher and the board fails the Intel Burn Test. My view is if "it don't pass, it don't post".

i have not yet given up though... I'll get that 3Ghz and then (evil laugh) bwahhahahahahahahahahahah!!!

PS: thanks for incliding me in the rankings
