Christian Ney Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 hmmm, and for 1 core ? I only have a GA-5AX from gigabyte atm. EDIT : also 2 boards s478, one slot one, a s462 and s423. Only 1 Core Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoro Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 i guess we cannot use 2 or 4 cores of a 980x for the corresponding categories!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharpshoooter82 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 can you use amd cpus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steponz Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Gee buy a gigabyte board to win a gigabyte board... If I had a board maybe... Maybe if the prizes were better..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerou Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 6core wprime? Do I smell dead Gulftowns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punky260 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Gee buy a gigabyte board to win a gigabyte board... If I had a board maybe... Maybe if the prizes were better..... I can't see the "use a Gigabyte-Mainboard" requirement this time, is it simply a mistake, am I going blind or are you allowed to use any motherboard this time? I think most sense would be to allow all boards, otherwise the prizes are some kind of stupid. If I won a competion with me state-of-the-art Gigabyte board, I don't need another one. But if I used an Asus board (just for example) and would win a new Gigabyte-Board I could try this next time ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mefist0 Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Yes, you are blind - Only use motherboard manufacturered by GIGABYTE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xoqolatl Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Another compo with entry cost higher than the best prize. <goes back to his Sempron 140 rig> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mefist0 Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Does this rules allow to use Hyperthreading in category 4 cores? I think it will be unfair to people who have processors w/o HT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Hyperthreading is a feature, so of course it's allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhpsystems Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 (edited) The cores are physical or HT can be used?. EDIT: Thanks, I don't see your post. Edited October 31, 2010 by rhpsystems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 1 Core I have a GA-5AX too, with two AMD K6/2, is it a "DualCore" ?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 2x CPU indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazzgul Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Mass, can I participate only in 4 cores or I have to participate in all stages? Bye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Prizes are awarded per #cores. So, to win the 4-core prize, you only need to compete in 4-core Wprime 32M and 4-core Wprime 1024M. Not competing in the other stages is no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dayvid4820 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Honestly I do not stay clear. If I have a I7 875K, this rise in the category of 4 cores (without HT). O in the category of 6 cores with ht. With a I3 530 or I5 655K compete in 2 cores without ht? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.Beier Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Retail only, means my B1 ES is out... Might go for the dual core stage though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again - hyperthreading is a feature of the CPU. 875K = 4-cores (with HT) 530/655K = 2-cores (with ht) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mefist0 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Wrong result in category Тур 3: 4 core Wprime 32M http://hwbot.org/community/submission/1072425_teemto_wprime_32m_athlon_ii_x4_640_7sec_578ms?tab=info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbster Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Can we use an unlocked X3 as a four core submission? I have tried this but it will not allow it. Can you clarify? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinos22 Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 so you mean when you unlock the X3 to X4 right? It will show 4 cores and pretty much becomes a 4core processor = yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
