Would a R9 270X be allowed for the 3D benchmarks? Since it being functionally identical and all.

No exceptions on Div II and III, card like stated there. We really have tons of options this time at different divisions and also tried and hopefully succeeded in limiting division vgas reasonable, but we will most likely make zero changes anymore

We will look into it if a solution is possible anyhow to allow wider variance of cards, initially we planned this. But don´t set high hopes...

Seems rather counter productive to allow the repacked version (the 3xx line) of it but not allow the one that performs the exact same but has a slightly different name to it.

or bearing cards gtx 780,770.670 to which I can give to a test to be able to approve the outcome of this chalengu div 3

No other cards than listed at page, I proposed "tier" model including older generations but this was not approved because handling not possible

May 2, 2016 at 2:47:24 PM UTC

I do not have from where to take the only model I have listed the gtx 780, 770, 670 radeon r9 280x

HOw about a GTX 550Ti? Would that old card be allowed for aquamark? GPU has little effect. (lol... I already put the 960 back in my wife's work rig. I got it out on a "one time" deal. :-0 ) Would like to see how much XP impacts the benchmark.
