Btw; I do not think ES is allowed, Im not sure - however I know that submitting results from a none released Gulftown, will get you disqualified in a split second.
It wont solve the cherry hardware debate. I'd rather fight dumb luck in picking a CPU from a tray than go up against someone who might have £10K at their disposal to find the best CPU.
Picking from a tray on the day levels things out a bit.
I vote for Intel binning ALL ES and ALL retail so they ALL do the same frequency.Quote:

Just saw this thread :)... GOOC 2010 Asia Regional Final will be held in Jakarta, Indonesia in June. Looking forward to meet with all my friend again :toast:
Cap = fixed MHz by organizerQuote:

Thats a better way of explaining it ;) Always good to weed out the total lemons in a bunch of competition chips.
:up: I totally agree :yepp:Quote:

+1 vote for Intel speed binning all the Extreme Edition CPUs to 5.5GHz 3D and giving me the only one that does 3D @ 6.5GHz :p:

That was meant ironical, but on this OC 55 event, are allowed only Retail CPUs, i am sure everyone brings Ci5-750 for first test and Ci5-670 for second ... i am sure, we all will brings the same models :) But this thread is abou GOOOC, not another event.Quote:

Cant wait to see some of the benching this year. Last year had some awesome overclocking.
disagree, totally kills the idea of overclocking (beating high-end with low-end)Quote:
