We should go out of our way to ensure that the developers of benchmarks like GPUPI are even more valued than our scores... Furthermore, if you happen to be a really gifted developer, not socially retarded and you are community centered well - hwbot should make a little statue out of gold in mat's likeness and consider making him part of the logo or <insert some creative idea here since mine sucks>. I don't get the problem with everyone having to rebench - go look at #1 for the apprentice league. That guy (no disrespect to him and certainly he hasn't done anything wrong) is going to be #1 for ever with no chance of anyone ever catching up to him. He doesn't even need to compete in any of the competitive challenges. I don't get how someone just has to run 3dmark 03, 05 and 06 with different video cards to maintain supremacy of an entire league. It seems some periodic rebenching helps solve problems like this. I will be the first to admit that I'm relatively new here and I may just not understand how the rankings work but god knows I've tried to understand the formula but am more confused than ever with the new revision. It feels like I'm actually competing in three different leagues with different rules. I can be 90th in USA, 60th in the world and 79th in my league. I'm always a little baffled when I look at the Elite league and the #1 person isn't ranked #1 in the world. Anyways, probably not staying on topic now so anywhoodles...

Ah, no worries then :-)

Splave, I think you forgot to change one of the CPU-Z tabs to Motherboard and have two open CPU-Z to the memory tab.

congrats, man - really impressive score!

yep! :-)

I think in the interest of - i don't know- can't think of anything - but you should avoid sweeping the competition with 50s across the board by temporarily becoming mortal on the final two GPU benchmarks for div 1 ;-) PS: insane time!

I am trying to enter my score for SuperPI in my latest result and it won't take "05:27:016" and keeps changing it when I hit submit to "05:27:160" which is obviously not the same thing. See the following link: http://hwbot.org/submission/3807117_marco.is.not.80_superpi___32m_core_i7_7700k_5min_27sec_16ms/ What the heck?

Nice one, boss!

I don' t know enough about LN2 to tell you if that means it scales but I can tell you just so you can get some context that using a water chiller my 8800k is doing 5.6 at 1.58.

Mat, this is old news but I never did officially thank you for removing the HPET timer requirement in GPUPI for Skylake and above processors. Thanks for all your hard work!

veryimpressive, jpm...

30 seconds is huge!

Shit... how do I correct that? I guess I can't... Man, I was so tired and forget to change the tabs. Of course, right?

Amazing score - is running this benchmark on XP or even Windows 7 that much better performance? I mean, I'm killing myself on this benchmark and have only shaved off a few seconds - no way I could do 5:15 so it's obviously possible. Anyways, nice job - really good time!

:-(

Mind altering performance (and of course entertainment!) :-)

actually maybe it's just bad IMC luck...

you need to show me how to get my ram timings so low - I've just don't get how I could purchase so many sets of b-die and have never got one time where I could just do some thing like 12-12-12-28 at 4000 ... I think I've just over studied it and have missed some obvious thing... We should get on Skype or some shit like that one night.

Crazy!

I'm fairly certain that the issue is caused by the hwinfo64.dll since I stuck a debugger on it and it seemed to suggest that was where it was getting hung up but of course I don't have the source code or all the symbols but I'm curious to why some people who had the same problem end up getting a working version by copying the program directory from another machine... ? Or maybe I read them wrong...

this sucks guys - I'm getting the exact same problem with steam version and website version (purchased versions) on both of my benchmark machines that run Windows 10. One is a brand new installation so obviously there is something wrong. There are also a few forum posts on their website that go unanswered dealing with the same issue. It makes no sense that it's a driver issue when everything else works but Catzilla has an issue confirmed by many others...

Wait, so $300 for both sets? Will you ship to USA? The first screenshot says 4GB DIMMs but are the second pair 4GB or 8GB? I assume 4GB but just in case. - Marco PS: Also willing to trade for me becoming your PR manager. ;-)

Very nice!

Yes, grats to winners - and good luck to all on random draws!
