In what way?

Overall I think it's reasonable. As mentioned privately I think it would be sensible to have a worldwide ranking for both seasonal and career points. Then you have league, national, team and worldwide ranking for both. May have more to comment on later.

Having fewer results doesn't stop people submitting, simply tries to put quality over quantity. Having a 'season background' would work, but I feel it would have to be treated as a comp, where users have to click to enter it as a season score, with a note saying the needed background is required etc, as otherwise the amount of incorrect subs would just be ridiculous.

Seasonal is meant to be more of an active ranking compared to career, and so including hw does make sense to me.

I thought it was because one of the gb3 subtests massively favours bandwidth, and is weighed heavily enough in the overall score that pushing that high gives you a better score overall even if you lose score in other subtests? (but I could be wrong as I've not tested myself)

The objective is to allow people to take part in competitive overclocking/benchmarking in my opinion, which doesn't just mean the top 0.1%, that's just a WR tracker. Also to a certain degree yes, but one guy having one binned chip that gets a bunch of global 1st places/golds isn't any better or worse than someone who does well in a wide range of benchmarks and with a range of hw. So you need to have some kind of compromise in my opinion, as having too small a number of scores counting will mean those without highly binned chips will next get near the top, but on the other hand having every score count for example would turn it into just a spamfest of results hah (which would still possibly favour the top end benchers I think actually due to the points scaling)

Which undermines the algorithm in my opinion. Also @Rauf I can see where you're coming from, but by limiting it too strongly you're still making it a money game, just instead of hw breadth it's hw depth so to speak, with needing to bin/buy binned hw at a premium. As @richba5tard said, it'll be impossibly to keep everybody happy, but hopefully a compromise can be made

Doesn't that just promote benching as much as possible, with no real regard for submission quality?

Now you're getting it

Results submitted to uat.hwbot.org won't be ported back to the main site as far as I'm aware. It's a test server, normally using a copy of the main database, hence why it'll often be a little out of date.

Crazy chip! ?

Use the new opencl and you'll be much faster, nice cpu :)

Yes I agree it wants to be inclusive and open to all. I was thinking of it in a way everybody gets to do what they want, with no pressure to do things they don't (so if they like comps but don't care about the 'normal' ranking they can still compete, and if they don't care about comps they don't have to do them, and if they like both then they get to compete in both etc.) Wasn't trying to divide things in a negative way. Rauf the reason I suggested either eliminating or greatly reducing both globals and WR was to improve the spread of points, as I feel it's currently a little extreme, since as you pointed out, when something like 03 doesn't scale with multiple cards, it means a single score can give over 450pts, which compared to a global first in a popular category (4x cpu r15) is over 200pts difference. It's possible that simply changing the benchmarks which are awarded them and reducing the ceiling of them will solve the issue whilst still rewarding those who want to push crazy setups that might not get many hw/globals. (what they were designed to reward in the first place) Edit: Unity one of the 'issues' with comps is that they're time limited, which means once they're over that's it, nobody can beat you, which goes against all the other points on hwbot, hence why looking to keep them to a system that resets, naturally counteracting that aspect.

I personally think comps should have a dedicated separate league, so you can take part and get rewarded, but you don't have to take part for the rankings if you don't want to, since they are limited both in hw and timescale.

Nothing to be gained by disabling SMT/some cores?

Done https://hwbot.org/hardware/motherboard/c9z390_pgw/

Think just that this is the 3D thread and there's no mention of 3.3 gaining points in the 2D thread.

Killer work as always! atleechna (apologies for non Cyrillic)

You should be able to edit your own score, top right of the score page

Killer ?

In this case isn't it mat going the extra mile to prove people could go the extra mile... ?

It's not a requirement in general, but it was for the Country Cup, hence why the score was removed from the competition but is still valid on the site

Don't think anyone will be sad about losing XTU

Good to see you back at it, waiting for 2500+
