Fine. and Yes i noticed recent Contest, well it was my first experience that's why not a perfect execution.

i noted your suggestion will try to fill prize section before contest actually starts. Thanks for your kind opinion.

Any other suggestions regarding Contest Nature like overclocking, Benching, whatsoever coming in your mind, i have few ideas but i wanted to know community's will.
Still, was a great execution. Did a good job. (y)

Following are some ideas that I think could work for upcoming competitions:

  1. Overclocking competition. Have separate section for CPU and GPU. Set targets. Those who reach them move to the next round etc.
  2. Rig showoff. People can clean up their setup and show it off. Cable management, cooling hardware, modding etc. And maybe use public voting to decide a winner.
  3. Lower end PC benchmark competition. As you know, most people don't have expensive high end rigs. So I think it could be great if there is a competition where lower end rigs are tested. And I believe many people will join it. Have two or three top positions with prizes. Set a criteria for highest maximum specs allowed so people below it can enter.

I guess Benching bohat hogae. i think its time to show off Rigs. seems interestting competition. what you say? could be a good promotion for section itself.

Was just going to post that I received the cash in the main thread but I see that has already been taken care of.

Thanks to @Jshak for sponsoring the second place price, and for sending it to me. :D
And thanks to @nafu for organizing the event.

keep it in classes

1) cpu benches
2) gpu benches
3) combine benches
4) keep the penalty so that it balances out if the classes are in the same bracket and doest handicap the other .
5) also we need more people because we are about 6 people competing and it would be more fun if there were more people


just my two cents . and yes keep it after January . I'm in a bit of a mess during this month .
