Ticket ID: 402 Priority: Low These CPUs don\'t exist, all the X2 4000+ Toledo cores are mislabeled by wPrime, and the others belong to other categories (at least that was the case the last time I checked). The other two are empty and there is NO chance that AMD managed to create a 2.8GHz stock Manchester part.

Rejected doesn't really mean anything these days because of that issue. But it's not a real problem, as you WILL get a link with all the details. A REAL problem would be if the file wouldn't be uploaded at all:p

What's interesting is that only a small part of the vista scores get that kind of PP;) Someone should look into it IMO... I'm not a great fan of asking every bencher to reveal his tweaks, but this could very well be a bug. The difference is just too big. Agree? It's like someone starts posting 1m scores at sub-6.5s:p

I don't have a clue... http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/Opteron%20165%20.09 http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/Athlon%2064%206400_%20X2 http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/Opteron%20170%20.09 http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/Athlon%2064%206000_%20X2 http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/Athlon%2064%205000_%20X2%20Windsor http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/Athlon%2064%204600_%20X2%20Windsor http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/Athlon%2064%204400_%20X2%20Toledo http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/Athlon%2064%203800_%20X2%20Windsor http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/Athlon%2064%203800_%20X2%20Toledo There are some scores with WAY better performance products than the rest if you look in the top 3 of all these categories. I don't have a clue what that special tweak is, but it certainly makes it close to impossible to break their scores without it.
-
There is some special tweak that cuts off like 10% of the total score, too. Some use it... no clue what it is, though:rolleyes:

where is that my hw points?
knopflerbruce replied to KAPTAN54's topic in Submission & member moderation
Make a sticky, massman;) -
Nothing has been deleted, it's just a bug... it WILL be fixed!
-
I lost one golden cup, no idea about silver etc - which makes sense if this is a GPu score bug, since nearly all my scores are for K8 CPUs:D Being robbed for 1700 points would be a bit... OMG:D If it was the other way around.

An interesting problem, at least for us dual socket users
knopflerbruce replied to Movieman's topic in General overclocking
You can still get the wprime scores;) It's impossible to beat them with a single socket, so there is a similar problem - but in the other "direction", too. -
I've had a couple of nasty experiences with CPUZ lately... I use one CPU, and press F7, but when I upload it the link may lead to a different CPU. For instance the Athlon 64 2600 I asked Turrican to add. It WAS OK, but now it's linked to my old LE1660-validation. Since I have no chance to eliminate this bug by using a validation file, I'm asking for an exception to the validation rule, so I can upload the BMP file you get when you press F5, as that one can't be messed with;) Ticket ID for 2600: http://www.hwbot.org/forum/helpcenter.php?do=ticket&tid=257 Result: http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=866062 Edit: same happened to the 2650e-validation. Same solution as well, I uploaded my F5 screenie

Formula One Overclocking Contest
knopflerbruce replied to The_Overclocker's topic in General overclocking
The rules do look a bit strange to OC'ers, but WE don't decide who should be invited etc etc. However, if there is no qualification etc - just handpicking of benchers - it's not like it's a competition that decides who is the best overclocker out there or something;) As long as no-one claims that that's what it is, then it's fine by me:p Hopefully this "test round" will succeed so the REAL stuff can come to life later on. -
What do we do when CPUZ goes bonkers?
knopflerbruce replied to Barton's topic in Submission & member moderation
This isn't really a CPUZ issue (I think), more a processor problem:) -
Please clarify the "New Rule"
knopflerbruce replied to Barton's topic in Submission & member moderation
I don't think it's a good idea. Even if "the gentleman way" would be to tell those who wonder what batch/stepping you've got, it shouldn't be mandatory. It's close to revealing all tweaks in a notepad document:p Plus, it's very time consuming. (make screenshot, take a shot of the CPU, edit it, paste it into the old screenshot). -
GPUs have never been cheaper, why split them now that more people than ever can actually afford top end gear?
-
It's allowed to buy HW that has been used here before. That's what I've been told at least...
-
OK, small difference there;) Thanks.
-
I thought the rules were pretty clear - borrowed CPUs for 2D are not allowed. Or did I miss something? IMO there is no difference if it's Intel or Joe the Tweaker downtown who lets someone have a chip for a session, it still is the same - a borrowed CPU.

Hadrware sharing spoted AGAIN?...
knopflerbruce replied to hipro5's topic in Submission & member moderation
It's not illegal to share mobo, PSU, memory, GPU. Or HDD for that matter;) In this case it's proven that the CPUs are the same, so then there is no illegal sharing. However, if the CPUs were the same model, I would agree with you that it's indeed a bit suspicious. -
Xeon W3540 for 3D03 Blocked
knopflerbruce replied to AndreYang's topic in Submission & member moderation
If it's an ORB problem I'd say that's a valid reason to make an exception (but I'm no result mod, hehe...). Can't you view the details and post a screenie of the "private" result? I haven't been to the ORB for quite some time, so my apologies if I wrote something that sounded stupid:p -
AH, I thought you meant CPU support, not support of the application itself:D
