Cool competition!

How does the stage victory work? If you win a stage AND overall do you get both prizes?

Same timeframe as moa, gonna be busy!

Can we have clarification on hardware that is not commercially available at the start of the competition?

Are we allow to create our own modifications and modified hardware?

It was already on the 3DMark Sky Diver stage page, but I added it to the competition page for clarification.

- only Asus graphics cards

- only single GPU

Will the maximus 7 formula be allowed?

Cause in germany it is just available in one week...but buyable at Newegg now

and pre-order able here

Local availability does not matter. Only released or not. Even if it's not for sale it's fine.

So...is it released or not In terms of competition rules?

Well it's available on newegg so it's obviously released. The release date was already during computex.

How about Maximus VII Impact?

Well it's available on newegg so it's obviously released. The release date was already during computex.

Its not on Newegg in the US

but here mike

so it should be fine

Both, Impact and Formula were released at the Computex 2014 press conference which should count as "released". Would wait for massman to confirm it tho.

Released does not mean available for sale or local availability.

^ It has to be available SOMEWHERE, usually that being US/Korea/TW, no paper releases.

be a man, win with a hero. I think we should have to show receipts
