Ehm, I dont play the game at all, what does that say?
Understood.
I don't play either.
I find it ironic that in the not so distant past, Optytrooper was labeled a PCM05 cheat for suspicion of using powertoy, that was never proven BTW, and what goes on now makes that look paltry in comparison. Now it's all high fives and "nice tweak" and nobody seems to think anythings wrong with that. It's bullsh1t.

If enough people decide they like PCMark05 played fair I will make a wrapper
So you're admitting that it's not being played fair then?
-
As stated many many times before, when the mods admit it can't be moderated, it's time to eliminate the bench, or at least the points.
Personally I don't like the PCM05 anymore. I liked it back in 2008 but now it's 98% about tweaks and 2% hardware. Imo this is not what a benchmark is about.Evidence of a perfectly good bench ruined by hackers.
Take away the points, I guaranty nobody will waste their time on it any more.

The question is why HDTune doesn't work with it, but PCMark05 works and how PCMark is indicative for system performance
If a 3DMark run bugs and I see a black screen through the whole subtest, then when my subtest score is a lot higher than comparable systems, my score is invalid (for obvious reasons). When someone discovers another loophole/exploit in PCMark, then it's a tweak.
But yeah..I'm a hater, you know
.It's ok, you can hang with me and the other haters anytime.

I would like to clear this a bit more...
I don't like my submissions to be reported, so... the question is:
We have an Phenom II X2 550BE...
We unlock it to quad core but we disable two cores as per below attached screenshot...
http://www.hwbot.org/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=1353&stc=1&d=1348875005
Can we submit results to X2 category let's say for wprime32m?
For benches that use only one core as pifast & spi1m i think there is no problem,
But is it acceptable to submit results to other benchmarks that use multiple cores?
Since we use only 2 cores i think it is legal but i prefer to clear it out first before i submit results...
Anyone pls?
This is my recent spi1m submission including all the above... is it OK to submit all other results to X2 category?
Can I ask why you bother to unlock if you're just going to use it as a dual anyway?
EDIT- Nevermind. Probably just picking the 2 highest clocking cores and disabling the other two.
-
Safe to say 05 needs no rules anymore..or points for that matter.
Totally agree.
-
Wrong Wprime version.
-
Not sure what to write here as you guys are genuinly right. Sorry about that!
This was enough.
-
i'm also an idiot to keep everything.
running already out of space here.
Me too. Wife is pissed that I took over her closet to store more stuff.
-
Yea sigs are broken too. And some tabs in my profile and Team profile too.
Points tab especially dont load.
Yup. Same here.
-
Most of the achievement awards are broken again, as well as the sigs (still), and some of the 'my team' tabs again.
-
It sucks that these two won their challenges when their results are incorrect. Maybe I should delete both?
Fair. Couldn't follow the rules in their own stacked challange. That's pretty bad.
-
Dead DFi nf2 works well as on/off mobo.
You don't need all that. Jumper the green wire in the 24 pin to any black wire in the 24 pin and you can just use the on/off switch on the PSU.
-
It's because 'pot' is mentioned in the title. lol
-
maybe Asus did something special
Think they'll charge more for it?
-
XP with SP3
Me too.
-
On A8N-SLI ?
Negative. DFI Ultra D. I would be very surprised if the type of board made a difference.
-
Bug with latest cpuz, changed fsb with clockgen but didnt update it in cpuz. 1.58 still works...
Interesting. It works for me.

lol, not with that nic.

maybe just a little comparison:
If there was a questionable penalty in the 5th minute of a football game the ref will decide it in the 5th minute.
He will not come after playtime and call "uhhh I think I was wrong in the 5th minute this penalty does not count".
Bad comparison, there is no 'real time' ref at HWB. It relies on the members and staff to police the subs when they have time. Ultimately it is the responsibility of the bencher to check his sub for accuracy before he submits it. If you don't want or like that, then it should be up to their respective team captains to check it for them. There is no fault of the staff or anybody else here, except the bencher who submitted the entry and maybe his team for not checking it.
-
It would be appreciated, I think, if the rules were actually published.
I feel like an awful lot of misunderstandings would be avoided if the rules were all actually readable. The current rules that is.
THIS ^^^ :celebration:
-
Calm down mate. Its calling Team Benching. We benched very good. Maybe better than other Teams. But if one member didn't looked carefully over the cup rules and we, the more experienced benchers didnt make him aware of it, we failed.
You did bench very well. Don't be so hard on yourself. Things slip by. It's very hard to police every single sub made by your team.
I've seen other subs by other teams with errors in them. They will be found also.
Great comp, loved it. See you the next go round.
-
Later.
This was just for a challange.

Shows 1:2 on the validation though.

Yup, that's right. Now those subs should be re-instated, unless you're just going to pick and choose who's being called a cheat.
