Rookie Rumble #49

Welcome to the Rookie Rumble! We assume you arrived here via XTU and that’s great but the OC world offers much more. The Rumble introduces you to the concept of competitive overclocking. It’s a contest only for new overclockers like you. Good luck!

There are three stages, each with the same hardware restrictions but featuring a different benchmark. The benchmarks are: XTU, Geekbench4 Single Core and 3DMark01. You can gather points by submitting in each of the three stages. The better the result, the more points you acquire and the higher you'll rank overall! Note that the validation process for the benchmarks is slightly different. Check out the rules section to learn more or drop us a message on our forums if you have a question.

wickpote's 3d mark 01 score does not appear to have used default settings as the rules dictate. From my testing you can gain over 10000 from running non defaults.

Report it.

 

Screenshot fails anyhow. Don't worry, it will be blocked.

In what was does the screenshot fail? I am just wondering so I can make sure mine is correct.

The "Overall score" window is blocking/on top of the main benchmark window. Rest looks fine, this needs to be 100% visable

Only the 7 game tests. The other tests don't actually affect your score.

 

You don't have to run them all at once, for example once you have a score you can rerun just Nature for basically as long as you can be arsed with in the hopes of getting a better score out of it and a higher overall score as a result. That's what's going on with scores like scannick`s 3DMark2001 SE score: 156998 marks with a Radeon HD 4870 where you can see only 1 game test is selected.
