  1. Don't sweat it Zorchie.... This is THE exact reason I don't bother with PCMark05 a LOOONG time ago. Every year the rules change on this bench at least twice.... May as well be removed and call it a day.

     

    It's closely watched by everyone for the breaking of rules and in some lower life terms "cheating".... Ask me, I'd say let people run w/e they want for this, disregard the cap for XP start up and see who can tweak the hardest.

     

    I think this way based purely on HW speed. Obviously the one with the fastest DDR3 is going to run software ramdisk and hit a good high score... like it should be??? WHY because OCing ram and then running software off it is a daily basis for many people and should be taken advantage of for any benchmark. So I never understood the rules of restricting software that completely utilizes the hardware..... Either way at the end it's just a number. It doesn't matter how big either.

     

    In a way having a sub looked at helps protect you as much as any one. If it's pulled and you redo it, resub, no big deal. Not like your going to banned over this BS benchmark that's packed with BS rules.....

     

     

    My 2 cents and no offence to anyone who reads the above.

  2. An Intel Outcast Hmmmm that must be me and Sparkey

     

    Actually, Sparkey is running a i7 965. I'm the other Intel guy 3770K fyi. My second Intel rig ever, did have a 2500K and laughed when my Phenom II's performed about the same (for 3d mainly).

     

    Nice work Team CP. Keep it up!

  3. It sure would be a really sad day to see Omega go down. http://www.omegadrivers.net/

     

    In hopes of some support from the over clocking community, I come here in search of help to a friend of ours in the time of need.

     

    I'm trying to get this out in the open as big as possible for donations to help keep the site up, or just to put a few bucks in this guys pocket.

    Well, been a bumpy ride, but all things come to an end...

     

    With great pain I have to inform everyone that I can't continue working on the drivers or maintain the website.

     

    During the past years I have been struggling in life to keep my family happy but the recent recession has been a big hit for me, not even my new business is going well, barely can pay the monthly utilities/rent and the risk that I took by holding the payments on my house to get the business going has come back to bite me in the ***.

     

    Read the rest here... http://www.omegadrivers.net/index.ph...news&Itemid=74

     

    Hopefully some of you can find it in your heart to send a small donation as a token of gratitude for all the years of hardwork and excellent service especially with drivers which make some of the best OC's possible.

     

    Thanks for reading,

  4. I'm losing speed with the New 1.61.2 revision here. Can I please use the far more stable 1.60 and see if we can get cpu-z to get the validator to comply with 1.60 until the comp is over or they have something stable.

     

    Getting cpu speed readouts as low as 26.xx mhz...

     

    Here's an example of a 4mhz loss. The speed is constantly moving around as well.

     

    EDIT:

     

    Also the new cpu-z rev. can not see my windows oc. I find it useless at this point.

     

    See pics below.

     

    Thanks for any help yes?

  5. I saw a tab to upload a picture for an image of the Cpu that is listed. It was otherwise grayed out 400x900 i think it said in the box.

     

    Example picture of my working 1090T http://hwbot.org/hardware/processor/phenom_ii_x6_1090t_be/

     

    I noticed the picture is a little blurry being the IHS plate is next to the cpu so it's hard to make out the actual part number of the IHS plate.

     

    Could you guys clean that picture up or perhaps make the picture clickable to a second window for actual size?

     

    Thanks for your inputs and Merry Christmas to all of you.
