    6x multiplier ddr2 or ddr3 Geekbench 3 Multicore (no multi CPU)

    I like this stage cause it implies that you can run amd and that'd be perfectly fine even if you wouldn't do very well. Make it ddr2 though, I don't want to have to source big chips on lga 2011, pretty sure ivy has enough ipc+cores that even at 600 mhz it'd win let alone with bclk and straps

    Things that don't work:
    - Some benchmark rules have not been updated to contain 2020 rules in the first page, instead posted in comment section.. oh boy

    This is because the original post of rules is basically a comment, and it was made by someone no longer active on staff.

    - Some benchmarks don't exist on benchmark listing (3Dmark03,05,06 with benchmate) (Said here already?)

    These are not seperate benches, the "with benchmate" categories that exist currently are temporary for the purpose of testing benchmate. They will all be rolled back into their respective benches.

    Priority:
    Get website working again (hwbot 7.0?)

    Message does boil down to this, and definitely agreed. Sounds like current issue is waiting for the merge to finish so that new company has access to the code needed to fix website.

  3. I would agree that unless there's some actual dramatic difference between various tdp bins not much reason for seperate categories. I don't think we have categories for various steppings on any other cpus?

    Mats:

    HEVC h.265 needs a boatload of memory in absolute mode.  With my 7980XE cut back to 32 threads, it takes around 14GB of available memory before the benchmark will even offer absolute mode.  Fewer cores probably take less memory than that, but still a lot.  If there is too little installed or too much is truncated, the absolute box can't be checked.  The increase in cores from 7640X to 9960X and likely a difference in truncating between Win7 and Win10 BCDs could account for exactly what you are seeing.

    This makes a lot of sense, would have to go back and look but the cpus that don't offer absolute mode for me on am3 are typically the 6 cores so perhaps those chips are only seeing half my dimms. I've had a surprising amount of cpus refuse to use all 8gb of my hypers even at stock.

    I have a clean install of the latest version Windows 7.  I can run the HEVC in absolute mode when using my 7640x. However when i put my 9960x in the same motherboard and dont change anything except Windows recognizing its a new processor and thus updates the basic core internals it impossible to run the same bencher in Absolute mode. If i do exactly the same change in Windows 10 then there is no issue.

    Is there thus either incompatibility with Win 7 and the 9960x processors or is there a specific trick to get it to work?

    I don't know why it does it, but it seems to be cpu to cpu. Ran a bunch of AM3 cpus and certain cpus don't have absolute mode for me and others do. Not core count dependent or clock dependent. Apparently there is a way to get it to work but the one person I know who figured it out is waiting until after comp to share

    one of the reasons you can't implement a change of this size as many users didn't cast a  vote. Is it that they just don't care or had no clue this was going on... you tell me...

     

    I'm gonna go with a mixture of both. It's tough as perhaps many think there is a change that's needed, but ofcourse you're correct in saying that it's too far sweeping for 40 people to decide the fate of thousands.
