Forum Wars begins in February 2011 with a new look and many sponsors donating some great hardware. We will also be using the new benchmark "Vantage". There will be a new handicapping system in place for the next war, so your system will be competitive in the class you run in..
All PC's entered will be givin a point value based on their componants..
All CPU threads will be added to the number of VGA cores along with your cooling options.. See below.
Air cooling = 0
Water cooling = 1
TEC & Chiller = 2
Phase & DICE = 3
Cascades & LN = 4
Examples:
(1) an i7 920 with 8 threads and a 4870X2 with 2 cores with Air cooling
This system is handicapped in this manner..
8 threads + 2 vga cores + (air) 0 = 10
(2) Q6600 (4 threads) and 2x 5870's (2 vga cores) using LN (4) is a 10
(3) Gulftown i7 980 (12 threads) and a 5870 (1 core) using H2O (1) is a 14
All Forum Wars 2011 Classes are listed in the Rules section.. Find yours, and get ready.
