    What's the deal here

    in Submission & member moderation

    Posted

    Question: Are all of these submissions in the wrong category, or is there really a problem with CPU-Z? I've already reported these, and a mod moved them to what is believed to be the proper class, only to have the person who submitted them move them back. Thus, I reported them again. Today I see more of the same type submission from the same person. If it IS a CPU-Z error, how do we really know what type of chip it is? I'd really like to know this, because I have MP's that I'd like to have scored in the XP classes too. BTW, this shouldn't be taken personal by the one submitting them, but his are the only one's that are like that. tia

    F*** man... I need a DFI like that and good pair of memory to my 3K+ Venice. Could bench at 2815MHz and value memories on standart air cooling. Know someone that's selling?

    Whatever, nice result. SPI 32mb is a really torture test. =]

    You'll need more than that.;)

    Let me pose a different question then.

    In the socket A Sempron categories most (99%)of the SS's in CPU-Z have no numerical designation in the CPU PSN or specification lines for whatever Sempron is installled. Example:

    http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1363245

    Yet I see a few entries that do. Example:

    http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=651371

    CPU-Z version doesn't seem to matter because I can find another like the above one using version 1.55 too.

    What bothers me is that even with an overclocked FSB, it still reads as a 2200+. Why would it not read higher like the other Athlon CPU's do when they're overclocked? Here's the kicker, this one does:

    http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=847707

    That's actually a 2300+ Sempron overclocked to 2600+ specs.

    Why?, and why does it not work the same for all of them?

    I reckon CPU-Z has never detected socket A cpus properly, so you I'll have to rely more on the info which the owner can physically read off the actual CPU rather than CPU-Z/CPUID cpu name string

    I'll field that question. It is possible to have a Sempron show up as an unknown XP-M if the motherboard is not a NF motherboard and the CPU is bridge or pin modded to a mobile CPU. Case and point, my 2200+ Sempron here.

    http://www.hwbot.org/community/submission/807817_mr.scott_cpu_z_sempron_2200_athlon_xp_2415_mhz

    It's also possible for a Sempron to read as a MP (multiprocessor) if the motherboard or bios isn't coded to actually support Sempron's.

     

    This is actually a huge problem in the socket A categories because it's so easy to work a cheat into the mix. I already know I've been taken advantage of by said cheats, but because of the inconsistencies with CPU-Z there is no real way to prove it, or stop it. Taking the word of the submissour is simply not good enough.

    Not buying it. I have Sempron CPU-Z's on versions ranging from 1.42 to 1.56 and none of them show a numerical designation. I have modded bios' by Merlin, TicTac, Etc. on all my boards, not to mention I mod my own bios', and none read like that either, so that doesn't wash.

    I'm more suggesting a photoshop session at this point, if you can't tell me why your submission is the only one that's like that in the entire Sempron category in all of HWBot.

    How'd you get CPU-Z to read it at 2200+ with the increased bus speed? As a matter of fact, it shouldn't read any numerical designation at all. It should just say sempron. CPU-Z doesn't read a numerical designation on any of my semprons, no matter what version I use, and after checking a lot of everybody else's submissions, in all of the sempron classes, it doesn't show on any of their's either. I smell a rat here.

    I don't want to use the "C" word here, but unless you can come up with a good explaination as to why your CPU-Z is the only one on the bot like that........well......

    Uploaded by wprime. If you take a look at the screenshot, there it is listed as a XP 1900+. The Mainboard doesn't recognise it.

    But you were content to leave it as a XP-M 1900 even though you knew it was a bad entry.

     

    Thank you Sweet for fixing that. Question: If Wprime has a problem uploading the correct info, shouldn't we not be using it and manually entering the submissions? Does anybody really know how many submissions like this have gone un-noticed?
