  1. +1 Keeping internal lists for specific tasks is difficult, but worthwhile. Having a list on HWBot would make it more useful.

     

    Going one step further, I would like it as well if I could maintain my own hardware library. For example, if there were a checkbox or something I could clear to indicate if I still have a part or if I have sold it... Then if we encourage our teammates to keep their hardware library updated, we can look at all hardware the team has run, as well as all hardware the team currently still owns. :)

    Nice. I agree.:)

  2. Mr. Scott I disagree that pcm05 does not scale with cpu - it certainly does.

    As for windows and storage tweaks - its part of the bench.

    The same is true in other 2D and most 3D benches as well - there are some windows tweaks that you MUST do to be competitive for the top scores.

    Bottom line is if you don't like to bench pcm05 then don't - easy answer. :)

    Steve, no dis-respect intended as you are most certainly a master at this bench, but in the other benches you don't need to basically construct your own OS using pieces of other OS's, or use batch files and sub-routines to switch drives for sub-tests to make them all work together for a decent score. That to me is a lot more than 'tweaking'. Not going on any more about this here. There's another thread for that. Besides, I'm obviously in the minority here anyway so there's no point in beating a dead horse. Enjoy your bench.

  3. Mr Scott, as someone with about 100 league points, and not a single rank in PCMark 2005 that is competitive globally - you quite possibly could be the least qualified person on HWBot to comment on the validity of this benchmark. Put some hardware together and actually try to do something with it, and I'd give your opinion more thought than the 15 seconds it takes to reply to your ignorant opinion on a benchmark you don't know anything about.

    Ah, but I DO know about it, pretty well actually. I just choose not to bench it.

    It's no fun, which is why I bench, for fun. As for my points and qualifications, well, I don't recall anyone asking for your opinion of either. They're not the issue anyway, so you wasted your ignorant 15 seconds trolling somebody you don't know from a bag of beans. You must be proud.
