While we are at it... Hardware-sharing. What is allowed or not. Seen it in the Lightning subs.

Not only do some share the same GPU, but sharing the full pc platform in the benchmark. I guess when you share the same platform you also share same Cpu, GPU, memory and ssd. From what I think this isn't allowed from what i can understand from the rules. Or maybe I don't completly understand this rules due English ain't my first language? Please englightning me what's correct. Use of same (binned/golden) GPU or platform for posting results from several users (two or more) will push other users down the ranking list. And same happens in several different benchmarks posted on hwbot. This can't or shouldn't be allwed. Or as I said... I just read the rules wrong.

3.2 E – HARDWARE SHARING

This in a delicate subject as we have to trust on the honesty of those participating at the HWBOT that they are indeed using their own hardware and not sharing a golden sample CPU or VGA card. Let’s start with what is allowed to be shared: everything except:
 

• VGA may not be shared for VGA 3D benchmarks.

• CPU may not be shared for CPU 2D benchmarks.
   

• Special cases, like what to do with joint bench sessions and manufacturer hardware. Ensure there are enough pictures and/or video footage of the event.

While the rules are quite simple and straightforward, enforcing them isn’t. If you are having a joint benchmark session, provide as much proof and information as possible when you submit a new HWBOT score. Showing you were using your own hardware for the benchmark in question, a photo with a paper showing your nickname and the product serial number is good way to do this. Video proof or plenty of pictures from the attended bench gathering is also a bonus to avoid being accused of hardware sharing.

Since HWBOT does not tolerate the sale of benchmark scores, usage of double accounts, the act of both selling or buying benchmark scores and uploading them to this database is not allowed. In addition, we strongly believe that no overclocker who is involved in this kind of business should be allowed to be part of the community.

Example of many posted results from Shaggy SVK and Slovak_Killer. The same whole platform get double up with points. The only difference between the posted results is the wallpaper and scores.

If this had been a BIOS MOD/Unlocked hardware then WHY was their scores from the 1x or 2x runs not also subbed under the GK106?

Thank You

Do I need to do anything more, and also, am I a dick for doing so?

I became a regular member first and used it for a while. Yesterday I paid to upgrade to a premium member~ Just after I reported cheating~ Today the website said that I am not eligible for membership! What about my money?

Hmm i think im the issue

"Anyone want to swap your top scores for another top score Luumi's your man, I got this message last night:

Here is the message and my reply.

"come on

that 1210

share me file

ill give you 1386

this is almost too good man...

Windows 8 pro sounds that it is surely bugged"

My Response to Luumi:

Just to be clear I do not cheat I hate cheaters and will have absolutely nothing more to do with Luumi, he can go and play where ever he likes but I'm done with his I expect your score attitude.

My files are bugged accoring to Luumi but perfectly good for him to use.

Rules only stated VGA and CPU sharing to be against rules when used in their corresponding benchmarks but if someone is making world records with DDR4 "golden sample" and sharing it, that is ok?

superpatodonaldo`s 3DMark2001 SE score: 120816 marks with a Radeon R9 290

bl0ndug`s XTU score: 2694 marks with a Core i7 5960X

distribution.it.pc`s XTU score: 2683 marks with a Core i7 5960X

can someone check them?

Noted this and the results of it just doesn't add up compared to all other results in the same category, this entry to me looks suspicious and needs to be reviewed.

hope this will be the right place

I recently buyed an HD6950 to partecipate at the Team Cup and, looking around about benchmark results, I notified that several benckmark are made with a "supposed" HD6950 with 1536 shaders (HD6970 bios, effective HD6950 has 1408 shaders).

Is it acceptable? Is it valid?

Thank You for Your attention and sorry for my poor english

The temp says 29c, on water (apparently)- at 1.7v. That's good SS/weak pot (dice) territory (or better) talking to some other members who use Skylake.

So I checked some other submissions because maybe, temp bugged. But there are quite a few that don't seem like AIO/custom loop scores at all...

Might be worth a look at.

submitted at the old school is best school season 2 round 4

looks to be bugged

does not have required comp background

Doubt you are going to beat people like vince & co with an Water i7 and a stock GPU.

Also no GPU-Z or CPU-Z.

According to HWBot database: LINK

No one did even more than 2.3 GHz, and the suspected valid is 4GHz What do you thing people?
