Welcome to the Rookie Rumble! We assume you arrived here via XTU and that’s great but the OC world offers much more. The Rumble introduces you to the concept of competitive overclocking. It’s a contest only for new overclockers like you. Good luck!
There are three stages, each with the same hardware restrictions but featuring a different benchmark. The benchmarks are: XTU, HWBOT Prime, and GPUPI for CPU - 100M. You can gather points by submitting in each of the three stages. The better the result, the more points you acquire and the higher you'll rank overall! Note that the validation process for the benchmarks is slightly different. Check out the rules section to learn more or drop us a message on our forums if you have a question.
The Seidon 120V Plus is the latest AIO watercooler that boasts an excellent value for performance. The compact 120mm radiator fits in virtually every case. Thanks to a premium 120mm JetFlo fan with a wide RPM range, Seidon can operate silently or unleash a powerful cooling storm at your command. Durable FEP Tubing provides the advantages of nearly no moisture absorption, high thermal stability and high pressure tolerance which all contribute to a long operating life.
More information: official website.
To apply for the lucky draw you must make a valid submission in each of the competition stages before the end of the competition.

tomasallendec
what factors are used regarding the invite list for this competition?
Oops, that was a small bug. The competition is open to every Rookie overclocker!
(please let me know if you're not able to submit)
thanks,
fixed now
I can't compete against @Hilderman 4900MHz, was funny anyway
ok, another potentially stupid question
what are the settings for the GPUPI benchmark? i only have a selection for gtx 970.
no cpu setting.
I am def a rookie with all this
I did have CPU selection at GPUPI benchmark, that's weird
I'll try and post a screen of what i have.
weird. prob a rookie error, lol
had the same problem the furst time i traid this benchmark on a cpu,so no rookie error lol.
but than i found this post from GENiEBEN
awesome
thanks very much
yup, that worked, thanks again
@Hilderman, what voltage and cooling solution do you use for 4900MHz? If you don't mind sharing
1.43 ish, gone as high as 1.48 vcore but with little return.
Corsair H60i at the moment.
24/7 I run 4.6MHz @ 1.275 vcore
Hi @ all users in rookie rumble#17,
please look that you use the right settings for stage 3 benchmark... some users are posting their graphiscard scores instead of cpu scores.....the wrong timings... u have to post that timing from cpu in GPUPI for CPU - 100M....
Best Regards and have fun while benching ;-)
@Hilderman, u have to download some additionaly drivers from intel that u can see your processor in settingsmenu from GPUPI for CPU - 100M... its writen in the description on that hompage from GPUPI for CPU - 100M... in german and english ;-)
sorry fro my bad english guys...
It would be nice to make GPUPI a per-core stage, actually it favorise too much Xx9 platforms over Zx7 ones.
Per core benefits 8core event more since the score is "lower = better"
Yep but for NN#2, you make the GpuPi stage as a per-core stage.
http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?t=132135
In my memories, all multi-threaded benchmarks for RR (hwbot prime, cinebench ...) were implemented in a per-core stage.
Can we disable cores for HWPrime? or does it have to be all cores used(IE 4 cores disabled in a 5930K or 6 cores disabled in 5960X?)
!!! Plz guys make squre you are not wasting your efforts on HWBot Prime and GPU benchmark in Windows 8 or later OS versions !!!
Also make sure the scores are visible and the CPU-Z CPU and Memory tab are included in the screenshot
Full core run mate
Hi Guys,
can please tell me anyone, how to handle that gpupi 100M CPU -benchmark.... ???? in my opinion its only a lucky thing to get a good result there.... i run that benchmark a few times all with same bios settings.... and always got different scores..... doesent matter if i overclock my cpu or not.... any suggestions here?
Seems like sharing is hard with local products on stage 3 ....
