Novice Nimble #4

Welcome to the Novice Nimble! Via the Rookie Rumble you’re now familiar with competitions at HWBOT and OC-ESPORTS. Now it's time to learn about team work. Find an overclocking team, motivate two other Novices and enjoy the Novice Nimble!

There are five stages in the Novice Nimble. Each of the stages requires combining 3 scores to form a team average. The team with the best average gathers the most points. In addition to the benchmarks we know from the Rookie Rumble, you will also have to compete in two 3D stages. To win, you will need good overclocking skills but most importantly a strong and cohesive team. Check out the stage tabs to find out the hardware and benchmark requirements. Good luck!

Stages

Novice Nimble: How Does It Work?

The Novice Nimble is based on the concept of the Country Cup competition series. To move up the rankings, you need to improve your team’s best-of-three average in each stage. It is up to you and your team members to determine the best strategy. Our engine is not doing the work for you! So you need to find out who takes on which particular challenge in the stages.

As a general rule of thumb, it’s good to assign members to specific hardware for each stage. Individuals trying to compete with all the hardware are quite likely to block other users from contributing to the team average.

To explain how the average is formed we provide you the image below. You will find three different scenarios, each explaining a specific situation for each team:

  • In Scenario 1, three users from one team each submit scores with three different hardware items. The team average is based on these scores and all users are contributing. The team average is completed.
  • In Scenario 2, three users from one team each submit one result. Two use the same hardware. Only the top score is used for the team average, so the team average is not complete (2/3). In order for complete the team average, one user must submit using different hardware.
  • In Scenario 3, two users from one team submit respectively two and one results with two different types of hardware. In this case there are two options: in case one user has the best score with both hardware, the score of the second user is not taken into account. Then the team average requires two more submissions to complete. In case two, each user has the best score for a hardware item. In that case the team average only requires one more user with a different hardware to complete the team average.

Can you confirm the 5G for Stage 1, not 4G ?

Nop but 5G seems high for newbies so i had a little doubt ^^

 

1.5V air-cooled incoming xD

Hi !

 

We have these 2 scores which are linked with comp, but are not added to our results :

http://hwbot.org/submission/2970334

http://hwbot.org/submission/2964857

http://oc-esports.io/#!/round/novice_nimble_4/2446/pcmark7

Can you fix it plz ? ^^

 

Also, can this submission be removed from comp ? http://hwbot.org/submission/2965809

Corentin2347 had issues with leagues, but as he is rookie, this score doesn't mean to be in Novice Nimble ^^

Removed the score, we have to check why it prefers the AMD score over one of the two haswell scores...

Thx Leeghoofd ^^

 

Logically, 4770K & 4790K would replace 8320 & 3930K scores.

I think the 4770KJ and 4790K might be classified as Haswell architecture so they might be the same... But indeed the AMD score should be replaced by an Intel score...

Guys, remember our Engine is not as smart as you!

Yup and i don't see why there scores were not added :

Pasty and ThePsychotik were not already part of our results, and neither 4770K or 4790K.

Rules of unique user and unique hardware for each stage is respected.

 

 

Niuulh deleted his FX score, but i7 ones are not replacing it, also with recalculation.

Bump.

 

 

Still no-linked-result bug. Now we have only 2 scores appearing on oc-esport page, MAO_FR submitted a score 4790K score yesterday, but not added like posts above : http://hwbot.org/submission/2978349

Guys plz make sure when submitting the XTU scores that the 5Ghz or lower is visible in the XTU benchmark screenshot. Don't post screenshot with the profiles as it is NOT considered as valid!!

Fixed,

 

Nexus35 was blocking the Haswell category with this score: http://hwbot.org/submission/2945338_nexus35_pcmark7_core_i5_4690k_7078_marks

Nope limit was 5003Mhz Mhz and the nr of cores. No division by core this time....

Thanks a lot Massman !!

But i'm sorry, next OC Show will again have a lack of diversity in NN results x)

 

This one was really not easy, GG to OCN and HwReady for their involvement in this challenge !

Ok thanks for clarification.

Another question -does it need to be a valid result for cloud gate ie: invalid driver listed or url not submitted?

And three cheers to cowcotland.

Awesome job

Hello,

 

I received a reported mail of my Cloud Gate score.

 

A team guy told me that I forgot the webpage of this score.

 

But I don't have any more because I installed Windows 10 since.

 

Edit : He turned up the webpage.
