2013 Autumn Folly
Summer is well and truly behind us and time to start using the cooler weather and get benching.
This time round it is going to be slightly different.
To compete in this contest you need to form a team. One Intel CPU and one AMD CPU. The choice is there to bench solo if you own or have access to both. But the idea is to have a benching buddy and bench as a team.
Both CPU's have to run each of the benchmarks. The two scores are submitted and the points or times are combined.
Benchmarks
Wprime 1024 mil
Super Pi 4mil
ROG Realbench
Futuremark
As always there are limitations. This time it is no different.
Rules
Challenge Wallpaper courtesy of Chris as always.

Contest starts 1st October and end 31st October.
Due to forum being down for a few hours last night the contest will close 9am 1 November 2013 London time.
Important notice: i5 Processors get an additional 100MHz extra to the cap.
Caps Off Bonus
Two day burn - there is no cap limit at all for this special 2 day part of the contest. Just push your hardware as hard as it can go and show us what you could have done if there had not been such a mean cap. Set by the wicked witch of the South. That is me if you are not sure.
Cooling restrictions still apply of course.

I am more than happy to play along, after all who among us appreciates folly more than I .. oh that's correct all of 'we'.
But I find myself in need of an Intel Team Buddy for this .. any takers ? I can only promise to do my best.
Let's ROG.
