How to Become a Benching Team Member
- Thread starter Brolloks
- Start date
Ok, I got all my 10 benchmarks uploaded, but have to work on getting enough points to be accepted.
http://hwbot.org/user/trdoc/
Since I think I borked my Matrix GTX 580, I guess I'll have to throw my GT240 back in and just concentrate on 2D stuff. Learning as I go, but boy this stuff can be frustrating.
Really pissed that it looks like I fried a Matrix after 2 days and never made it past 950 core clock... Gonna really hold back my potential for points!
I was thinking of picking up another 580 ref card and just SLIing later when I get the Matrix fixed (I hope!), but I'm taking The Boy to SeaWorld and buying my mom a better used car this month, plus plonking down for the 580 and a new sub amp for my truck... looks like alot of my disposable income for the month is gone. If my 2D scores can't get me in, then maybe next month.... <sigh>

You're getting there
You've got some easy points sitting in that 2600K. If it'll do 55 multiplier you should be able to grab close to 10 with just a CPU-z validation

It won't... not unless I approach 1.6V, which I just can't convince myself to do just yet.

Read the rules for being admitted to the benching team...
The first thing I see wrong is that you don't have the minimum 100 posts on the forum.
Just a heads up...

Bingo. After you make the 100 posts you should be good. PM one of the team leaders (or both) - Brolloks and/or nzaneb. They have the power; once you're in they'll notify a mod/admin to do the whole permissions thing.

You got it all wrong PhIly... The 100 post requirement is not about post whoring at all man. It's about commitment. It's about someone being willing to put in the effort of making 100 "non-spammy" posts and doing the required benches and getting the required points. It's how someone that wants to be on the team shows us (the other members of the team) that he/she really wants to be in it with us. The badge makes no difference, but being an "official" member of the team does give you access to some "perks"...

Understand, I work all day and can't just get on a computer while I'm working. I need the PERKS now to help tweak. I also understand you got rules..........

Here's what you do...
Start a thread in the OC Forums Benchmarking section... List the HW you have and we'll help you get there.
We have people that will be more than glad to guide you through the ins/outs of benching so that you can get on the team.

Cool!
Thank you! Just going to do that, among other things I'm trying to repair an LCD screen and working on another PS fix.
