    With the most due respect, no background in the new Div Compo...security wise, but especially PROMO wise probably a questionable decision. I go with the flow as a relative newbie but it also affects authenticity and participant/competition experience for the actual Compo. My humble 2 cents.

    No Quad Core global scores?

    Hey Guys,

     

    Asked a question a couple of months ago on a single score, where it was not showing a ' best global score ' but I knew it had to be my best. Am getting used to the different areas of HWBot and found the per benchmark overview of listings with cores associated. Look at the pic, and you'll see what I mean. I haven't checked all of them, but the first handfull were also missing. No biggie, but I might be missing out on some global points ;) Curious anyways haha...

    Great if you could have the time to look into this!, and thanks, Michel

    Hey HWBot team,

     

    One can never express enough the appreciation for you guys keeping things running, just wanted to say that again!

     

    I have a simple (I think) issue, or we have for that matter. I am one of the guys in the team who likes to eSport, and I look at the ranks and different disciplines a lot. But our team does not have our HWBot logo visible at the eSports site. Mr. Leeghoofd gave it a try, we do have a logo now at HWBot, but it seems to be tricky to get it represented at eSports. Could you lend a hand to get this done, or point us in the right direction?

     

    Very much appreciated, and I wish you guys a happy and prosperous 2017!

    Identify a Mobo Alu Cap (help!)

    Report!

     

    Well I went ahead tonight with some further TS...and I thought if the fuse is broken I should not be able to meassure resistance, but on all I could meassure a value. Then it had to be the cap, and I replaced the obvious one closest to the fuse that had the failing voltage. A pain to get a nice clean hole, but once soldered I fired it up and bang...no failure message :D ....yeah baby! I made a BIOS with USB disabled and flashed it before I started looking into soldering, that seemed to have worked like a charm. Instant OC from scratch setup in the BIOS...if it wasn't so much hassle you'd want that for each of your boards....babbling along in my exstatic state lol

     

    Thanks a lot for the good help, learned a few things on the way...easy to overthink things when you are on unknown grounds. Now for the big test with the 8350...see how she holds up under a decent load ;)

     

    Thanks again, you rule, Mies

    So short it by hand and see what happens...if it runs, solder a fixed bridge or simply add a new breaker. The fuse is there for Voltage I take it, but it probably has a wattage rating as well. I presume I can simply put a new fuse parallel on top of the broken one. Comes to question if caps that were bent like on the picture can actually work if you push em back. In case it is just the broken fuse it would probably be caused by a faulty USB device...can't really think of anything else. I really was suspecting them caps though:

     

    Edit: Really need to read up on the Mobo subcomponents...been primarily focused on straight component repair, pin jobs, power sections and memory for modding ;) . Fun too, and if I can get it to work I'll be grinning for a couple of days !
