    So I guess going back to what this whole thread was about, I think if we want to push newer OS's the way is to promote newer benches like timespy that utiliize the newer OS as opposed to trying to make old benches work or drop them. I want legacy dropped for other reasons that I've stated already.

    So state the reasons. Whatcha trying to hide? 

     

    Entire team? Hardly but I bet we could summon a few more members here to explain to you what legacy means. You obviously dont get it...

  2. its a competition to beat another score. If I have the same tweaks as you, why would it matter. If you need advice for old hardware and legacy benchmarking, swing by warp9-systems.com and do some learning or relearning. If not, then perhaps some other teams forum.

    The way you word it.... Like people cheating. No.... Its people taking the time to use legal known tricks to beat your score that you where to lazy to tweak out a bit. Reservez rightz to pull man card.

    Instead of bitching about tweaks, try practicing them and then become an overclocker. (In general, not solely directed to you.) 

    Wow you over clocked DDR4 on windows 10. Such a hard core oc addict man. (In general, not directed solely to you)

    But who ever said competition was easy any ways. Just because my Nike looks cooler than your reebok pumps, doesnt mean I can run faster.

  3. I have a couple recent submissions with TEC cooling. It is strictly TEC on top of cpu, not chilling a liquid with the TEC.

     

    I choose water chilled category which is somewhat accurate, but not really at the same time. I run geothermal or a tap to drain liquid cooling. Im not decided if thats chilled or not but I submit using chilled category.

     

    Can an admin help with proper category for geothermal and or TEC?

    The Legacy Benchmarks are part of HWbot & they need to stay as most of us here still enjoy them :)

    The legacy benchmarks is what started HWBot and the need for people to feel competitive and be rewarded for it.

    If you haven't or are not willing to run Legacy benchmarks, then (in my opinion not at any one here directly) your not a bencher. you haven't experienced it, you can't be it. 

    Perhaps some game benchmarks to gather the gaming crowd. Lots of titles with built in benchmarks. Shit even Crysis. The old saying.... Can it run Crysis? lol.

    I think the current policy of ES hardware at HWbot is just fine and support it staying the way it is. 

    I agree with this 100% If it isn't broken, don't fix it.

    I don't see why anyone would lie about being sponsored. it's the other way around people might lie.

    See a sponsor probably wants something in return like advertising. Obviously they can make more sales.

    So you want/need that displayed somewhere. 

    Personally I don't really look at most other teams submissions unless it happens to be in the area I'm benching at (Cpu Mhz ect) and could care less if some random guy that's big into overclocking gets free hardware. So to me, it doesn't matter and really care less. I'm already on the right team.....

    That said, You want it simple, just let people overclock. Sponsors should be sending hardware to the people that have never been sponsored, not the same guy over and over again. Seems boring and gives small returns imo. The top guys have been on top for years and years and they earned it, sponsors or not. 

    Vote no to sponsors unless one wants my address haha!

    Temperature can't be proven but neither can pro/sponsored, so..... novice league is nice imho, as you are competing with new members. There is less need when you have seasonal rankings though.

    Can I inline a poll for this or do I need to create a separate post?

    How about they have to prove that they where sponsored. Like the sponsor writes a HWBot validation letter and must be included in the screen shot.

  9. I'd like to be in the everybody else League!!! Pick me Pick me!! 

    Is everybody else league just a nicer way to put poor broke looser? 

    ____________________________________________________

    On a serious note, I'd be happy to be in a lower class league or non sponsored league, still make points for myself and team, and also be able to "watch" the pro league.

    So Pro League could be a yearly Team Ranking for top rank while maintaining the All time Teams Ranking. 

    Boys bench the biggest hardware from each team, there's your winning team for that season. Yes. Hhmm that could work.

    Cut out leagues by temp could be ok too, maybe not even a bad idea. However it was implemented because of complaints of ranking while it seemed unfair that not everyone can get LN2 for example, it was tried and it stuck. Ya.. Get rid of it. There's an AirGas in every major city.

    True, but the argument I was saying was if you ran it 8.2 this year, you beat them, but since you didn't beat your best ever it wouldn't count?

    Unless I'm misunderstanding how the points would be calculated in which case ignore me :D

    That's how it works now? Don't think there would be any change there. You can't beat your own score, then you can't move up. Save last years sandbag score for next year. It's not that hard.

    The TPP is a drain on resources and maintenance, but if the concept is loved I'd consider maintaining it. The big drawback(imho) is that it is quite static but so be it.

    TPP was loved the second it was implemented. You should consider maintaining it. It's a good deal for teams of people. 

    Any how Fredric, Have a good Thanksgiving and Holiday season. I haven't much more to voice. Hoping this new Rev works for everyone which will be impossible. But at least you're trying and put this out there for people to try and understand. Me, I'll be back at W9 and concentrating on our goodness at the home site. Will be looking to build a sA system for the at home comp now that I got my IDE drive is wiped (the only one I have left in good working order)  clean and see if I can't get a decent percentage OC and just have a blast doing it.  Again all are invited.

    One thing I did miss years ago.... I was able to upload my CPU de-lid pictures for that particular CPU avatar. Wish I could do that again lol. Here's an example. http://hwbot.org/hardware/processor/phenom_ii_x4_965_be/

    Yea... the good old days.

  12. OHH and also forgot!!!

    W9 (the current fastest team on planet earth) is holding a holiday event. OC your processor and hit max % OC!!!

    No points, no numbers, no hardware or cooling restrictions. no points, no prizes, nothing but good old fashioned fun. 

    Register at Warp9-Systems and have a wonderful Holiday season!  http://warp9-systems.proboards.com/thread/778/w9-holiday-oc-competition?page=1&scrollTo=24121

    My apologies for the off topic post. Thought it would be nifty to mention that here....

    What fundamental change to gl/wr do you suggest?

     

    straight forward answer.

    No fundamental change needed. 

    Rev 7 is fine. leave it alone and repair the odds and ends. 

    Advertise overclocking to young crowds. I'm (we) not getting any younger. Need a larger crowd. It's harder to please the few than the many. 

    Who's idea was it for this big revision change any ways? and WHY? (don't wanna hear about the way HWBot works but want to hear about the people running it and WHY the feeling or awareness of some feeling to make such a large drastic change... In other words I don't want the hardware answer)

  14. From my side it looks like I've been with my Team for 12 years and at hardware bot for probably about as long. What 06 07'??

    So we where ClassicPlatforms and changed to warp 9 and grew allowing new members in here and there and earned our way which took many years to a top of a very aggressive make of teams.

    NOW, we suddenly come up with the idea to basically tear apart a team of human beings with heart and soul put into HWBot?

    Really, boycott would be a good term for decisions like this. (please no offence it's business I understand that) and any good team with good leaders and members are going to agree here.

    A yearly fight sounds fun. But you're really going to break hearts here Frederic.

    How about a yearly team comp that GIVES A LARGE SUM OF POINTS that other teams would have to grind on for a while.

    As for the Team Points being the sum of points for the current year, won't that lead to gaming the system by rebenching all of your hardware that gets the best scores every year plus what ever new hardware benched that gets a good score?

     

    Well you just save last years screen shot and bench your new hardware and all set up! 

    I still have all or most of all my benchmark pictures. I saved them before uploading to bot. :D

    Team points rankings:

    • Sum member points current year

     

    • There's the buzz kill. Any points done in the past prior to previous year is null and void. Your team is based off points for that current year.

      TBD, good concept but takes too much computational power?

    • Too much computational power? Overclock the goddamned server for ducks sake. lol. No but seriously, perhaps move the database to newer server hardware and shop for better pricing maybe? 
    • Is HWBot hurting for cash. I saw some thread about paying to lvl up your points or something. I sit in the midwest. Perhaps put up some billboard advertisements and hold some events outside the usual boxes.

    oc-esports.io

    Rankings scrapped, only to be used for read only view of schedule and the competition/stage pages.

    Thoughts?

     

    Scrap the points, scrap the whole thing. why hang onto it? read only view will use computational power.

      • More focus on medals, a bit less on points.

       

      OK so why change points. Make the medals easier to come by. Like adding some in!! 

    • Platnum

    • Diamond

    • Gold

    • Silver and so on......

    Just some ideas.
