    XTU version 6.2017

    in Benchmark software

    Posted

    Thanks yos for the tip about Win 8.1!!! I have the right update for Win 7 and have it installed. It has worked before on Win 7 with my G3258. I lost the older version of XTU i was using though. I'm having trouble finding a win 8.1 iso, that is why I chose to bench XTU on win 7. Would you know where I could get a good win 8.1 iso?

     

    I don't have a stripped down iso, but you can get it straight from microsoft with this tool http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=510815

    XTU version 6.2017

    in Benchmark software

    Hello joe_joe and Massman

    I am having a strange issue on my G3258 with XTU. It reports 0GHz and the utilization never goes over 12%. The benchmark also never finishes

    Here is the install environment:

    XTU Version: 6.4.1.15

    OC: none, installing XTU with stock settings in bios

    OS: Win 7 Pro 64bit

    Mobo: ASRock Z87 OCF ac

    Internet: No connection.

     

    Is there any solution to this issue? I have submitted a G3258 score before, but never had this issue before. I have a LN2 pot now, so I was hoping to get some cold subs in. Lol

     

    Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!

     

    Have you also tried win 8.1 32bit? It tends to score the best. For win 7 I think there's a specific windows update you have to install, I forget which one.

    BC1 Mini Power Supply size

    Just bought a BC1 Mini and am looking for a SFX/SFX-L PSU to go along with it.

    This is my first entry into ITX and as I am not familiar with this form factor, what PSU (brand and model number) would be of good quality? I am interested in 600W-700W range.

     

    Corsair has a very nice 600w sfx power supply. There's a silverstone 700w and 800w as well, however from reading reviews the fan seems to be based on load not heat and supposedly some have died because the fan didn't spin up so may want to avoid. I know that for most itx cpu benching you'll be doing the 600w should be fine. I've actually run quite a few cpu benches using corsair 600w and it's a nice little unit, although 600w probably isn't enough to really push a cpu and gpu on xtreme cooling.

    Whatever happens here is impossible to see by just examing the screenshots. The performance is not the issue here, but the timer might be. Those scores were done with the RTC timer, which is currently approved by HWBOT for older Windows versions. It might get skewed due to improper handling on the SR-2 or on every dual-socket board for 1366.

     

    As always: If a run takes 4 minutes in real time and is submitted as a sub 1 minute result, it should be reported by the overclocker instead of being submitted.

     

    Btw, if this is really a timer issue then I would recommend to remove all dual xeons scores from the bot. Other benchmarks could share the same problems, I can help to point out which ones. But it's too early to say yet, so let's not jump to any conclusions.

     

    If anyone could give me remote access to a setup with sr-2, I would very much appreciate it. Any good offers on a cheap sr-2 are welcome as well. :)

     

    I actually have an sr-2. I'd have to set it up and there's no time this weekend but I could definitely work with you on this. My best guess is that it has to do with changing bclk in OS but I could be 100% off on that. If it is legit then I'd love to see how far I can push this gal on dice, 5 ghz 12c westmere beating 6 ghz 7980xe is big if true :D
