XS HWBot Team

[Don_Dan]

My OC project is on a hold for the moment.. I had a spontaneous leaking Apogee GT in my main system (the copper base plate has become spherical, so much that it is leaking from the bottom of the block itself, I don't know what is the cause, it has been running full-time for the last 2 years ), destroying my 4890..

But I do got a Ti4600 voltmodded ready for the HWBOT competition, including Asrock s775/AGP and a E5300 coming in tomorrow. The only problem is that my Philips 42" 8404 has arrived this week, and its very difficult NOT to play with all the time

Awww, that's really terrible to hear, I'm feeling with you.

I'm looking forward to the modded Ti4600, do you have any test runs to share?

Nice submissions!
I expect to get 460 total "easily", just ran out of time now. Going on a trip today and will be back Monday for some action.

Did you get better performance now? Did removing some mounting pressure help you?
I'm sorry I couldn't help you more.

Yes, that's what I thought. I guess it depends if GPUZ accesses the hardware directly, rather than the driver - I'll investigate. Mind you, if I wipe the board with top spots anyway I guess it won't matter!

*edit: It uses a rom strap so it didn't work

On the plus side, I'm so close to 1st place on 3dm'03 I think I'll be earning us a small number of points

As far as I know, GPU-Z accesses the driver to determine which GPU you use. It's hwbot's policy that modded hardware belongs to the category it originates from, so this would be 8600M GT regardless of what GPU-Z shows.
I can asl Wizzard about that if you want.

Please try to take the other categories as well, did you try to run 03 with LOD already?

Damn, you're were faster than me.... ^^

I left my old team of which I was the creator and joined the xs team. If anybody feels like taking 5 minutes and look at my submissions, I'm sure with a couple tips I could get more points for the team. I brought a little 13 points or so, and wish I could bring more!

on board!

I noticed you didn't run all the 3dmarks, please run all of them.
Can't you get any more speed from your chip? 4GHz should be possible at least. What kind of cooling do you have?

back home from taipei - though after being stuck in Alaska and 50+/- hours of travel I will be tired a bit more than usual so I will take some time ot get back up to speed

Good to see you back! I hope were able to enjoy Taipei!

Hi chaps & lasses, just wondering why it's showing none of my points towards XS. I have about 40-50 but none are marked us as 'for xtreme systems'. Have I missed something? Can't find much in the rules...

Thebluemeanie1 is right, the other categories in your points tab are only relevant if you have results that would earn you global points in more than one category. Since you only get the points for the most-rewarding global score, the other global points still count for the team's total!

we are coming for you XS

I removed my post from your hilarious thread on hwbot, I don't want to "embarass" my team any more. It's your show.
