HWBOT Competitions

Today, my HWbot Rank changed from Rookie to Novice. Does that disqualify me from the Rookie Ryzen Challenge #1? My submissions were made during my "rookie" stage, last weekend.

I assume AMD owners cannot join the competition as it seems XTU is working only with Intel.

Jumper118`s Geekbench3 - Multi Core score: 17699 points with a FX-9590 My geekbench does not have show the small table of results under the main multi and single thread scores? Idk why but I thought I would say before you delete my score after its ended I am aware this may be an issue but idk why it happens.

hi, I have a probléme to submit for the stage 1, the error is : Validation error: A valid x86-secret url is required for cpu-z submissions. This is my link : https://valid.x86.fr/d89wmp Where is the problem ?

For some reason, when I try to run GPUPI, it tells me I do not have HPET and it will not run. However, BIOS is telling me it is enabled. I'm using a Gigabyte Aorus, AX-370 Gaming 5 motherboard. I have the latest bios ver 5Fd. Is there another way to ensure HPET is working or not? Are there any other BIOS settings that may conflict with it?

How does the scoring work? Is the total point supposed to equal the sum of the three stages?

What about the 980ti? It is a cutdown Titan X, and will outscore anything you throw at it.

3DM01 would not be a better choice than 3DM03? I'm asking this because 3DM03 does not run on older Matrox cards like G450 (DX6.0) and it would basically limit the competition to Parhelia/Millenium only.

Should be fun, I guess this will be the first time benching subzero ram for many overclockers out there (including me)

Can anyone point me to these rules?

To start the support thread, I received feedback that Realbench can give trouble to some contestants. Please bench with internet connection active bencause save file does not work, you have to submit directly after benchmark. Would also like to have feedback on open CL and compability issue, I know geforce 7 works as I tested it on new gen asrock board, but if you see problems, this is right place people can share experience on this

Two days before ending. Is this a mistake?

Alright, put this one up. Looking forward to see the comparison results

We're about 10 days away from the end of the competition, so let's ask the question: is VRMark suitable for competitive overclocking? Would love to read the input from the top competitors in this contest

Hi, I am seeing a lot of subs in the div's with not the correct backround. I allready reported several of them. Some of them get deleted, some are not. For example an sub for div II with a background from div I. So what is the deal. Are you allowed to sub with different background ? Or are the rules enforced and are ALL the subs with wrong backgrounds being deleted. I am hoping to get this sorted out. Wat is the rule on this. Thanks in advance

is the bg available?

Hi, i don't know if it's only for me but i can't submit any file of GPUPI. It's said invalid file but online submition by GPUPI API works. No one have a GPUPI score so i'm wondering if it's bugged.

I am getting this after submission. HTTP Status 500 - Could not resolve view with name 'fileTooBigFailure' in servlet with name 'springmvc' I am unable to enter my submission because I am getting above error.

Gpupi Cpu because you need to specify the video card?

Every time i try to submit a score it says "Invalid data file: Unable to decrypt the datafile" And its a bit strange that everytime i hit the calculate menu, i can only see my GPU. Now i have uploaded it via GPUPI and used the HWBOT Submit online function, but did this count for Stage 3? Cause i can´t see my submission there.

How many GPU cores are allowed, one as per normal or no limit?

Guys, what am I missing here? Do I actually have to purchase the full version to compete in stage 2?

3rd and 4th place have the same score, but for the oc-esport points there is a difference what determined the 3 and 4th place.
