For the users whit a gigabyte 1030 oc

The voltage controller for the vcore is a up1542s.

Same chip on a msi gt 730 " mod from Lucky noob @ jagat oc "

The Mem controler and readout points i don't have fount jet

Edit 1 : I like to add foto , but option is not working

Edit 2 : I found the mem and core voltage readoud point , and i think ( not 100% sure ) the men voltage controller up8801

Try to make a new post with the picture, it seems nothing works anymore at the forums...

Even when i start a new thread in the vmod section i can't add foto's

Its open now so where is the wallpaper?

Someone stole the background :-o

Here is the official wallpaper

Thanks Michael

I can't download the wallpaper, could you provide a new link websmile? Thanks!

Copy and paste the link into your browser

The link should work, as said you can copy the link adress and open it in your browser if it does not redirect you at first.

I have a quick question.

I see its live now but there are no stipulations about the CPU or platform. So should I assume I could use an ES CPU on the X299 platform? Thanks.

Silly question but how do we bypass the 4gb vram requirement for superposition extreme?

Superposition Extreme needs 3Gb of Vram.

The best you can run is Moderate with 2Gb of Vram.

We will have to wait for the mods to change the bench to Moderate I think.

At least they know now once they read this.

Right on i thought maybe there was some sort of workaround for it since there are gt1030 subs for it,thought I just needed to use some elbow grease lmao

I see half a dozen of extreme results 1080 for 1030a with 2GB ram? So I think it should work, maybe casanova can tell who already ran it

On the cpus, we have 5g limit and no restrictions

obligatory screen background? not speciffier in the rules !!

The background is at post 7 of the thread

it does not work !!

It does work, you copy the link adress and put it in your browser - several people checked it already

now yes, OK.

The background is at post 7 of the thread

This needs to be specified in the rules. Just found out about it now.

BG requirement is not stated... so it's only fair to make it optional at this point. Now that I h ave it, I'll use it for any future subs.

C'mon......

You guys have been competitive benching long enough to know that there is wallpaper required for every single comp.

Just fix your mistake. It's easier than arguing for a rule change.

C'mon manl - the BG didn't show up until after the comp began. No rule to change - It's not specified at this point. Read the rules, then comment.

What no comment on ES chips?

hey dopies ^^^^^, when has there ever been a comp held without a wallpaper needed ???? you know damn well what is required, even if there is a glitch with it , so stop the bull...shit talk !!!!!

I'm not arguing about the need for a wallpaper. Only the impractical way to hide it in the comments of a suppoort thread.

impractical way to hide it, what a load of garbage, you think bot wants to go thru all this crap over a impractical way to hide it , jesus, ive never entered a cheapaz chips comp yet but i do know this , it requires a background, and so do you, like any other comp, were you born thick or does it just come naturally ??

I don't know why it is you can't have a simple discussion in these forums anymore without being called an idiot by a new user. It didn't use to be like this.

Anyway, cya guys in the competition where the results will do the talking.

a new user eh ??? lol, too funny, if youre an old user you know the rules already, like i do !!!!!

Vmod not working , card stil alive

I already tasked internal that the rules and the background shall be provided, I hope we can get this done

hey dopies ^^^^^, when has there ever been a comp held without a wallpaper needed ???? you know damn well what is required, even if there is a glitch with it , so stop the bull...shit talk !!!!!

And there has always been other rules in other comps... does not mean they apply to any future comp - right? Or should a user ASSUME what rules apply. Geeze.

^^ yeah, oldies.

Any particular reason the background still doesn't seem to appear on the stage pages? (I know it's in this thread)

I have no access to change this

The link is dead, here a new one : https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/282084086762176512/395209329688576002/Cheapazchips-s2-Wallpaper-v1_preview_1.png

In which case who needs to be poked?

George Storm I heard

Thx for adding the background!

Was wonder where you can get GPUPI 3.0? I see a few people using it.

Was wonder where you can get GPUPI 3.0? I see a few people using it.

gpupi 3 can be found

https://www.overclockers.at/downloads/GPUPI%203.0.zip

new back ground?

do we need to re bench whit the new?

You can use both backgrounds, I found the new version with Galax sponsorship and improvized.

Some people seem to have found a way to modify BIOS, any hints?

Just to make sure, GPUPI 3.0 is fine to use for the competition, right?

Is it too late to change to superposition medium and or require a valid link so we can see bugged runs?

Extreme is just a random number generator and throws you a nice score when you bug and run out of vram.

To answer some questions, GPUPI 3.0 is ok for me and we stay with extreme at superposition like agreed on the thread, too late to change this I think. The result tab shows min and max fps at least

I think the 8** scores are bugged, and Ikki's is more on track to what to expect. Those guys should be around 680-695 tops

YES! They are bugged, its not a tweak. If you don't want to change it then we need some guidelines in place to toss out the 8xx scores.

Changes need to happen, its nothing new. I recall changes made in the last weeks of a GB comp because of the raymarch test in catzilla.

I confirm, high 6xx without bug is possible, maybe something around 7xx, but 8xx is a bugged score with extreme preset

The only changes made at GA were that I removed more results, and mainly because the raymarch bug was happening more often than usual.

On the "bugged" runs, so how to see these? minimum and maximum fps are completely in line for the results. We cannot block results because of efficiency being too good if we do not have more hints. This is a quite new benchmark and it has not been run on lower end gpus much. What is even more hilarious, the community discussed the benchmark choice and hardware for months and obviously no one did in depth testing.

So, let s hope in honesty

I might exchange stage 3 if we cannot find a solution that either shows these runs are tweaked or bugged. It is always risky to use newer not much tested benchmark on rarely used hardware. This decision will be made saturday/sunday most likely because everyone will feel bad if we have to rely on chance.

I have to comment here because I believe in Honesty too.

I installed W10 and setup everything up and on the first run it crashed I was using the same clocks as I was with 3D03 so I lowered them a bit and it went through and gave me 851 marks so I thought beauty saved the screenshot and subbed it this was on the second day of the comp.

I wasnt thinking anything about bugged run or anything as far as I knew at the time it was good.

Later I tried the openGL API in the bench and got a very low score after going back and trying the Direct X API again I could not reproduce the score.

I have been trying for days and done 4 more complete reinstalls.

I can get 730 easily enough just tweaking with inspector and am sure I can get into the 800's with cold on the card.

As I said I believe in honesty and fairness but I am not removing the score I have not got the highest score maybe Electron Libre can come in here and tell us all how he got a score of 889 he's score appeared a few day ago and I would say he was out to beat my score so maybe he knows how to do it legally.

Edit:

Michael if we change the bench I vote for heaven its in a wrapper and is the same thing basically it also meets the objective of keeping the CPU out of the bench.

I think if this needs to be done, just extend the length of the competition to make it even.

Macs, as much as I'm sure it is awesome to hit an 850+ if it cant be replicated - or even id say within 20 points I really reckon its bugged.

I second the motion for Heaven.

I agree totally Matt but if Electon Libre can show up and tell us how he actually done it then I will be able to do it again and so should everyone else.

My actual choice is to change the bench.

heaven would be an excellent sub if we have to change benches.

My actual choice is to change the bench.

exactly, and if he can do so, and replicate it, sure, but until he does. bugged.

I think Heaven's a good choice as well. Although incorporating new benches into currently running comps is nice, if bugged results are getting posted, then it really starts to become an issue. The behavior of Heaven is well known, and it's a "similar" bench(both developed by Unigine).

Superposition medium or high might be fine also since I think the issues lies in the limited gpu mem capacity

my question is this michael if you will, and im not even in the comp but watching it, i just tried to download the bench directly from bot comp link to have a look at this bench, 1275 mb, took 20 minutes, i know australias internet isnt good , bit it gets to the end of the dload and its failed ??, my main question is this, has anyone in BOT ever tested this bench, for bugs, or what ever or has it been just chucked in for a comp like so many others and hope for the best and doesnt give dramas ???, coz from what ive seen so far theres many people wasting a lot of time , money, and energy on another bench like the last XTU / realbench experiences ??

thx ozz

The benchmark was tested with a couple of different GPUs, but you can´t test new benchmarks on all different cards available. For this competition, hwbot did not determine the benchmarks used but the community did at a special preparations thread so you are asking the wrong person for "if this was chucked in"^^. The benchmarks we use normally are tested and bugs are known unless we make special stuff like the realbench beta comps in the past to evaluate new options

michael i asked you coz i know youll tell the truth, simple, my original question stands, bot did not test it, im still trying to download the bench,ark form the comps link the 2nd time, 1st time failed, got to the end within 15 seconds, the failed, oops , failed again for the second time in the same comp download option

i watched the video of it and it will be a top but hard benchmark when all is sorted , i loved the older stuff in it, a top music back ground too, and thx for the realbench of late update

The benchmarks we use normally are tested and bugs are known unless we make special stuff like the realbench beta comps in the past to evaluate new options (not really good stuff to put in a comp is it untested )

cheers ozz

michael, i just downloaded it off unigene website and downloaded and installed no problems, i dont have the gear installed to run it but it installed no worries, so can you tell me, everyone what the problem is with the cheapazchips comp download is please ??, i tried it twice same result..failed???

I do not understand the question about the download - if I click the ocesports download link at cheapazz it leads to unigine site directly for download link, so there is no difference for me. Does it lead you somewhere else?

no michael, what i said was if i download it from the cheapazchipz comps link from bot it doesnt download properly for me, it stopped twice and didnt download, both from 2 different ( times) not stages , sorry , typo, there is the option in each stage to download each stage correct ?, stage 3 the super 1080p extreme is not downloading for me, now whether anyone else has had these issues i dont know but im wondering with the talks of a bug somewhere in which ive read of whether that bug is in the download from BOT , clearly theres a bug in it somewhere form the comments already and for me to try download it twice with the same results off BOT from the comp stage page

if i go to unigene site itself then no problems, it downloads perfectly and is installed on my pc now

All downloads work for me, they lead to website of piblisher or direct download at 3dm03, but I need to use the normal left click and cannot download with right click. Same as on hwbot directly, also the 03 being shown as shortened url problem is same. All works nontheless

i give up, all the best with it !!

The superposition stage will get deleted and I will add a UH Extreme stage instead. For this stage I prolong the contest to 20th of january

hello, for the score I made I just made changes in the NVIDIA configuration panel in other changed the speed of the frames and tested others .change the bench pad worries for me since I'm not looking not the 1st place.

And may the best win .

cordially

but if we change we can also say that the score of 03 are buger, I made a score of 115000 point that is not validated but well past it is necessary that the competition ends
