HWBOT Competitions

Hi all! A few hours ago the Rookie Rumble #51 ended. From 27.12.2017 to 15.01.2018 until 12:00UTC inclusive, there were clear rules - Stage 2 HWBOT X265 4K and Stage 3 SuperPi 1M had the same limitations: The final table contains violations of current rules. Namely, Ackerman, as a novice, participates in the final table (Stage 2 and 3) contrary to the rules. The administration of the competition has not reacted to this violation of its rules. Also, I want to write I'm not familiar with such elementary algebra, where: 0+15+10=24. Like that:

Best wishes for everyone, I hope you will a blast at HWBOT in 2018. For all your submission plz make sure you verify the rules laid down per benchmark. Especially for older gen Intel and AMD CPUs not all Windows versions are allowed (RealTimeClock bug) Don't blame HWBOT, blame Microsoft for not fixing it! For this Rumble: Stage 1 XTU: no verification screenshot required Stage 2 X265: a verification screenshot is needed, including the benchmark score, CPU-Z CPU and Memory tab visible! Make sure HPET is on !! Stage 3 SuperPi: a verification screenshot is needed, including the benchmark score, CPU-Z CPU and Memory tab visible! Check your OS before su…

just noticed i had a setting wrong on my submission which caused an invalid score

Hey, There is a lot of intel and non-rookie sub

Hi, as country cup starts tomorrow I'd like to make sure that I know what each stage is and what is allowed before I buy any new hw. For stage 1 it 8 different intel cpu subfamilies. Does this mean i9, i7, i5, etc or is this generations like kabylake, skylake, haswell, ivy bridge, etc.? Then for stage 4 it needs 4 seperate gcn1 model gpus. So for example r9 280x, r9 280, 7970, and 7950 is good and we don't need seperate actual chips (tahiti xt, tahiti pro, tahiti le)? Also going along with that question is HD 8000 series allowed and are firepros allowed? Neither are server hw, and technically did retail although you could not buy hd 8000 outside of a prebuilt pc and…

Sadly here in Italy it's impossible to buy a RX Vega, there are some retailers who list them, but have not actually received from the warehouses yet

Hi Guys and moderators. Mistake. This result http://hwbot.org/submission/3728665 not considered by system for calculating of average score. Why?

I have read future task competition and saw that in some tests its need to get 2 and 3 results from the Team. Is it possible to change the rules so that only one better result is enough? For small Teams 5-10 persons, finding 2-3 identical HW is very turbulent and problematic, enother words impossible. https://d1964r093mwb8w.cloudfront.net/Competitions/1971-1974_TeamCup2017/TeamCup17-banner-1920x1080.png Background

Hi, I'm trying to upload our GPUpi 1B score for validation. The program appears to run the macro and submit the score, but it does not appear on the submissions list or on our score. Is there something we're doing wrong?

Do we really need all those tabs open or just what's required by the rules?

Odd, I don't get an option to submit my HD7870 card for stage 5. I think I got everything right? http://hwbot.org/submission/3716767_ A poor score is better than no score

If you use last version of CPU-Z you cant load SPD information. I have try with 2 cpu ( x2 370k and x4 760k ), 1.81 not work and 1.80 is ok. How do we do ?

question is in the subject line. :-)

Closing this one, check out the official thread in the new forum: https://community.hwbot.org/topic/173114-galax-goc-grand-final-2017/

hi , can I use 5 cores for cinebench ? it is write 2,4,6,8 but if I can use 6 and 8 cores maybe I can use 5 cores.

Hello, I see some regular points loss on last HWBOT Team Cup 2017, as if the ranking was being reupdated regularly...? (aren't scores written in stone?) How is this possible? How to actually be sure the personal ranking is correct there, given only the team ranking is shown...? Thanks if you have time answering on this. Cheers

Hey ! The end of the CC is in December and not in November as said in the "Rules".

As the title says, It's more than a little confusing when the counter shows 35 days until Stage 1 finishes but the Rules say it ends in 5-6 days time? Which counters are we trusting and which ones need updating?

Why is temperature monitoring required for stage 3, where apprentices are allowed to compete? Not all CPU's will register temperatures once they go below a certain point.

Why is it not allowed to use Win10 in SuperPi 32M? In the rules stands "Desktop and Laptops without bus clocking tuning capabilities are allowed". My Motherboard has no Setting for BCLK.

Can't submit result from both HWBOT & OC-eSports. After hitting "submit benchmark result" button I'm getting blank screen with Apache Tomcat/7.0.59 - Error report link. Using Firefox 56.0.2 x64. And please, fix rules. One page says "3 different unique AMD GPUs, single gpu only", other says "processor manufactured by AMD" & "a videocard manufactured by 1". Where is the truth?

God save the Queen!

Could we have a stage in the next competition or team/country cup that includes Xeons and titans please. I would Like to see some monster scores. I'm sure there are people with sr2, srx, d8 ws etc gathering dust somewhere Maybe have stage 1: Lga771 xeon Stage 2 Lga 1366 xeon Stage 3 Lga 2011 xeon Stage 4 Lga2011-3 xeon Have both single and dual socket config. Then titans: Stage 1: Kepler titans Stage 2: Maxwell titans Stage 3: Pascal titans Tbh titan are only like 'ultra' version of cards in the past and other than the name have no real difference to gaming class cards. It's not like a p100 with 5200 cores and hbm 2 that cost £10…
