I like the idea of using older hardware, but this old? I'm hoping it's not a preview of the real thing too :(

old? only k7 an pentium II are old, for the other stages u need the newest hardware... ;)

i like the idea. so u don´t need to much money and everybody can compete :)

I just think something like K10 and Core2 would be great. Still old, but cheap and easy to find.

Other than the "spirit" there is no connection between the warm-up competitions and the actual Team Cup.

@robbo2: i like the idea of changing the required hardware often, so there is no binned hardware and everybody has the same chance to win. :)

I think this year TeamCup will include Ati (Radeon) subcompetition like the Nvidia last year and most probably there will be hwbot prime subcompetition :P.

yeah there aren´t to much current manufacturer of gpu... ^_^

 

because of that i like the classic competitions with non-nvidia/amd...

Its good to have a competition that doesn't require the usual binned newest generation stuff. Plenty of other competitions like that. Besides your Team Points are calculated by all your hardware, no need to turn this one into who has the best sponsorship.

Just sold my only K7, man was that a dumb idea.

 

Any word on when the real thing is happening?

In the fifth stage, we must use a single core/single die cpu or we can use even a multi core cpu with cores shut down?

Tell me about Via SuperPI 1M {LIMITATIONS} Only use Via processors. Can I run SuperPI on Cyrix CPU? (Historically Via bought Cyrix), or only one way to use VIA C3 and VIA C7 cpu? Ths.

cyrix III = via c3, isn´t it? Ö_Ö

but cyrix 6x86 is ibm, not via, right?

"Single Core" is one of the benchmark settings of Geekbench. You can run with all cores enabled!

You know I meant in terms of the age of hardware requirements.

@zeropluszero: don´t be afraid, on team-cup comes real old hardware like pentium 1 and voodoo II :D

stage 3: 3D Mark 99

all limited to pentium 1/AMD 586/Cirix/IBM 5x86

stage 4: 3D Mark 2k voodoo full out

:D

So what about this? I need official answer on my question.

what says cpu-z to your cyrix III? normaly it´s automaticly detectet as via c3. so there should be no problem...? :o

integrated gpu of course is allowed, too. why not? :o

Discrete and intergated GPU both allowed?

 

Yes :)

I have to wonder if they even read the rules. :D

I hope no one want to break my WR ;) I will be really sad if I need bench this platform once again :P

 

You're wrong, I want to break it :D

But wanting and succeeding are 2 different things :P

And again...Overclocking heroes, you 're submission is in the wrong stage...

The result moderators are pretty active. If you spot a wrong submission, just hit the report button and they will take care of it :).

You actually just have to fix the bug that everyone can submit with everything in the pentium II stage

Oh, I didn't add those limitations. Sorry for that, I'll add it asap

Just fixed the limitations for that stage. Weird that I just forgot to configure that one LOL.

 

Thanks for the heads up!

Submittee my score for the via stage. No where near the record but it'the best I'm gonna do!

One question about this competition. So I have in test with CPU "A" result "A". I want to improve this result "A", so I've got with CPU "B" result "B" where "B" is better then result "A". And I will upload this result "B" in the same test. Does system automatically deleted result "A" or I must do it manually or something else?

Rasparthe
Rasparthe

If your score B beats score A, then the system will automatically only account for Score B. Score A will still be on the system but for the contest only Score B will be recognized

the 3d on amd stage was a great idea. 3d fun without binned 4770k :D

and i like the 3DM01 because it isn´t automaticly the most expensive gpu the best ;)

in that stage has a cheap phenom II with gtx260 good chances ;)

 

hope something like that would be in the team-cup :)
