I don't like to compete in them anymore because at this point being competitive is more about who can bug them harder and not actual OC.

Not sure on the cost but I know of at least a few people who would consider contributing towards Mat creating a wrapper depending on the cost.

This now links to the microsoft store, on this basis I'd say that kills the bench for hwbot until they can fix it. Especially since it's not any more secure to .ini "tweaks" than previous versions of cine are.

If we're lucky it'll lose all points. That pile of garbage that intel calls a bench should've died a long time ago.

AFAIK you usually need windows management instrumentation enabled for it to work.

Ladies, enough of whatever catfight/feud this is. Can we stay on topic of how leagues should be seperated?

There are additional requirements to enter the comp, must also read rules on competition page

The point of this bench is to get cpuz to read a number, has nothing to do with comparing to other cpus in any practical sense. If you want to do that look at a bench like x265

You have completely misunderstood the point of this bench.

A cpuz validation doesn't even run any stress, it's literally a test of what clocks cpuz reads out so it is in fact single threaded

They no longer add devices, only processors, this breaks the mobile hwbot prime submission however that software is deprecated and should be considered EOL with no support.

There are many "singlethreaded" benches out there like superpi 32m which people tend to disable cores for. I don't see any reason to do away with that.

Lol, this times it seems it doesn't matter. As long as you don't get a ddr2 model or something and there's enough vram for the bench (all models should have enough) it should just be about mods (I'm sure there's an IC that's best but I don't know what it is)

No longer true now that avx2 is supported, most cpus haswell and newer it impacts. As for gpu tests it shouldn't matter but :shrug:

Yes, HD 5450 or any other Cedar core
