HWBOT Country Competition - 7 weeks, 7 stages, 7 prizes, 150 competing countries

Wake up everyone!!
HWBot is excited to present its first official competition. The concept is completely different from all other competitions so far, so let us explain.
1. Concept
The competition consists of seven benchmarks spread over seven weeks. In other words, chances are big that you will not have the time to submit a world record breaking result, which makes it interesting to see who will come up with the best result within a very limited time-frame. The results are grouped per country and countries are ranked based on the average score of the top-3 submissions. So, in order to win, you will have to motivate your fellow overclockers to submit good results. Per stage, countries are awarded points and the country that gathered most points at the end of seven stages wins the competition.
2. Stages
For each stage, the HWBot staff has prepared a combination of platform and benchmark. To keep things exciting, we will not reveal the combination, but only the list of platforms and benchmarks. This prevents people from benching in advance and preserves the concept of one-week benching, but still allows people to prepare as you can already figure out the limitations of the platform. The only two people who know the combination of the platform and benchmarks are RichBa5tard and Massman. Evidently, both can not win anything in this competition.
2.a. Benchmarks- 3DMark01
- 3DMark Vantage
- Pifast
- SuperPI 1M
- SuperPI 32M #1
- SuperPI 32M #2 (different hardware limitations)
- Wprime 32M
2.b. Required hardware
In order to make this competition fun and challenging, each stage will have certain hardware limitations. For example, we could limit the 3DMark01 stage to only use a Intel Core 2 Quad processor. The hardware requirements for each stage will be announced a few days before the start of the stage.
Hardware required if you want to compete in all stages:- AMD processor
- AMD/ATI videocard
- A P55 motherboard
- Intel Core 2 Quad (not extreme)
- Any single core processor
- Any Intel Core i7 processor
If you do not own this hardware, either go bargain hunting or encourage fellow countrymen with this hardware to join the competition. There are 7 stages in this competition, so it's not a disaster if you can't compete in one of the stages due to hardware limitations. Remember, in the Country Cup competition it's not important how high you score, it's important how high your country top 3 average is.
3. Prizes
As this is an official HWBot competition, we need to give away prizes to those who performed best during this competition. Although this is a country competition we cannot give a prize to every single overclocker from the winning country. No, you have to put a lot of effort in trying to win something.
At the end of the competition, there will be a top-3 formed based on the points each country has been able to gather. The best overclockers from each country will be sent a K|ngp|n LN2 container. The containers (2x CPU, GPU and NB) are awarded as follows:
- Winning Country: top 3 overclockers get each one container
- Runner-up: top 2 overclockers get each one container
- Third: best overclocker gets one container.
- Special achievements (eg first submission): hwbot T-shirts, hwbot dog tags
4. Rules- Submission verification must be according to the HWBot rules.
- We expect everyone to play fair, whoever cheats in this competition gets banned from HWBot.
- This is not a software tuning competition, but an overclocking competition. Any special software tweaks must be explained to the HWBot staff during the competition and will be published on HWBot afterwards.
- Reminder: act smart.
- Retail hardware only. Hardware must be availabe for purchase at the beginning of this competition. Pre-order is not okay.
- The usage of Liquid Helium is not prohibited.
More details and the official link to the competiton microsite will be published next week. The first stage of the competition will start on Wednesday the 4th of November.

Sa stiti ca eu imi pot pune zilnic camera la dispozitie pentru a gazdui un oc-session, unde mai pui ca am si un SS dual stage :P.
Din pacate acum nu am cu ce concura.

S-a dat drumul la jocuri:
http://hwbot.org/article/news/hwbot_..._1_has_started
Cine are un Quad potent sa nu fie timid. Combinatia cistigatoare pare sa fie RE + DDR3 + Q9xxx. Dar nici cu DDR2 nu cred ca se face cineva de rusine. Sa fi avut proc ma bagam si eu pe frigul asta.

Pentru Sparta, pentru lab501 si pentru glorie eterna Romaniei, daca unul dintre voi crede ca are un quad suficient de potent, pot sa ii imprumut RE-ul si tubul, daca baga dice sau azot.

Daca vine cineva la mine cu un tub, imi pot pune Q6600 la bataie. Fara el nu are rost sa ma chinui

Daca este bun, iti imprumut sculele si poti sa te destrabalezi. Problema este ca treaba dureaza 7 zile si trebuie totusi trei rezultate. Hai bateti sa va vad cu 3 quad-uri ultra mega potente, si va ajutam cu ce putem

Pentru gama lui e potent. Oricum nu il putem compara cu seria Q9xx. Asa ca oricum nu are rost bataia de cap.

M-am mai gandit oleaca. Haideti fratilor sa o facem lata!!! Pentru asta trebuie sa ne organizam si sa actionam precis si ucigator pentru urmatoarele 7 saptamani. Daca nu castigam unul din primele locuri, macar vom castiga mai multa experienta in astfel de concursuri.
Ideea este urmatoarea - trebuie sa avem trei intrari cat mai bune la fiecare categorie. In loc de 10 intrari mai slabe, mai bine facem un efort si incercam sa avem trei intrari cat de bune putem. Nu este obligatoriu sa iesim in top 3, nu este obligatoriu sa dam joc un WR sau ceva de genul asta. Tot ce trebuie s afacem este un efort colectiv, in care punem cap la cap trei platforme solide pentru fiecare proba si incercam sa fim consecventi, sa ne mentinem constanti
De data asta, partea frumoasa este alta. Daca sunteti cuminti, poate participam si noi la cateva dintre probe, ca sa dam un boost echipei. Totusi, de data asta vreau sa va vad pe voi in actiune, vreau sa vad cat mai multa pasiune si lupta de la voi, iar noi incercam sa va ajutam cu ce putem (hardware, solutii de racire, etc, in limita a ceea ce avem pe acasa). Daca trageti tare si va tineti de treaba, ne bagam si noi la cateva dintre probe.
Ia sa va vad, cati dintre voi sunt interesati?

Pai platformele inca nu se stie ce trebuie sa fie pentru toate stagiile. Asa ca din pacate nu pot fi puse la punct din timp.

Bun. Haideti domnilor, sa vedem cine se mai baga. Cum spuneam, de data asta vreau sa va vad pe voi in actiune. Mie nu imi trebuie nici un premiu, chiar daca particip, deci aveti un motiv in plus sa bagati mare. Vreau doar sa vad cat de pusi pe treaba sunteti si mai vreau sa intregim randurile overclockerilor care au ceva de spus din Romania.
