GOOC 2010 - North America Regional Final - Press Release

[rdrash]

Matt's woes you can maybe blame on me (and his hangover), but Buckeye and Jody did it to themselves


By the way, my report is on the way, but it's going to take a few days as always

It was all on me Patrick... (and yeah killer hangover didn't help). I should have swapped boards and not just CPU after the brown out...oh well.

Super congrats to Jeremy, Mike and Ross

Event was fun, Gigabyte staff are awesome people!

[G H Z]

Jeremy, Mike & Ross - good work guys

Big thanks to Gigabyte for putting on another great event for North America

Hicookie & Rita you guys rock this years final will be really good I think.

haha, finally found this picture. Check out that PURE t-shirt, straight out of Detroit.



One of the skills required of PURE members is being sneaky like ninja but not being a ninja

I think everyone, at some point in your life, should take a trip through airport security with Gomeler. We get up to the security thing, I put my backpack and flip flops on the conveyor, and Chris busts out an F1 with the mounting hardware attached and everything, a soldering iron, hot glue gun, meter probes, all kinds of stuff. I'm laughing my ass off as he just sets all this stuff in the bucket like he does it every day. Nobody said a word, the dude just looked at it on the x-ray for a while and let him breeze right through. I wish I thought to take a picture though, it was pretty cool. When I got home, I found an "inspected by TSA" slip in my checked bag, and was missing a sock

[miahallen]

.....and was missing a sock

You own socks



oh....sorry, nevermind

Hmm, that sucks... I got it from Polizei in Germany last time I went home from Frankfurt airport, and they broke some wings on 120mm fans
They seemed to have been after my otterauge pot.... 3.6kg devil

here is the final score board, http://gooc2010.gigabyte.com/north-a...ore.aspx?id=38
due to ross's wprime 2.937 fail in screenshot validation. so we fix the score board, but not affect the final ranking.

hicookie

3rd place winner, ross

Pifast 14.55 ( 1.68v 5.8GHz...lol not bad chip )


wprim 3 sec


Maxmeme 25796 MB/s


Super pi 8m

[boostedevo]

Oops, did I do 2 of the same tabs on the wPrime screen? At least it didn't change anything

I tried higher Vc in the second round, but the proc didn't go any higher. I wish it would've run that maxxmem uncore for everything

[Gautam]

My retail gulftown is very similar actually...1.76 is about the most it needs, and it clocks pretty close to max even with 1.68v.

Yeah, I kept playing around with it. It actually seemed to like more/less depending either on # of core or multi or something. That wandering CBB still has me puzzled too

2 of CPU tab........lol

[[XC] gomeler]

Holy uncore batman

[boostedevo]

2 of CPU tab........lol

I had a feeling I did that on one of them, too bad it was my best wPrime. Sorry that I made some extra work for you

Holy uncore batman

That's not as good as my retail for uncore, but my retail cores won't hit 6GHz either

[SF3D]

Congratulation to the winners! Have fun in Taipei!
