Is the timer correct on this contest? Two of the stages say they end in 4 days, one says 8 days, and the title says the contest ends on Mar 10, 12 days away. Are the stages staggered or everything ends on Mar 10, like the banner says?
Any update here?
1st stage would end tomorrow morning, kinda unusal.

My 24/7 rig is fully updated but still I get nothing. Why doenst XTU installer checks for needed updates? Who does fully update his bench OS?
-
No need to hurry, its just good to know that someone is still working on it.
-
Any update here? (I know, this is probably much work but just let me know if this has other reasons for delay.)

i have used 3 english versions 2 whit sp1 and one whit out sp1, and all have the same situation.even whit upping the multi by one above stock gave me -- for the temps and 0 for cpu speed.
i am letting this comp go, good luck to the rest.
I have exactly the same problem.
Two different systems with different Windows Installations, one Asus Z87 Impact for my daily rig and one Gigabyte Z97 as my bench rig give all 0 Ghz and -- Highest CPU Temp. Also latest XTU from Intel website.
edit:
Reinstalled XTU: no change
Updated Bios on Asus to 1603: no change
Used Bios F7e on Gigabyte: no change
Tried ME 9.5: no change
Seems Im lost...
edit2:
Tried new Win7 Sp1 installation without any updates or drivers. Just XTU 5.1.1.25. Again no change.
Has this something to do with Watchdog?
I got:
Watchdog Present: true
Running at Boot: False
Failed: False

sure but i hate that benchmark. i´ll only get a tennis elbow from maltreating the mouse
You have to move the mouse in the corner of your screen so your mouse pointer dont interfere the moving windows. It was actually never about moving the mouse as fast as you can.
I try to imagine a PCMark05 Pro see someone benching and thus moving his mous rediculous fast and wonder: "Should I tell him? Oh no its just to funny..."
Anyway, Cinebench 2003 was a good idea in TeamCup. Why not also for Pentium III? Only downside is that there are no hardware points enabled for this one.
some more name proposal: Vintage Hardware Festival Series

Wow, nice CPU. Is this possible to buy that type of "adapter"?
That would be nice. But cant find any. Seems that, apart from those China fakes, some Laptop Manufactures soldered these bga cpus on socket 370 adapters but why?
edit: some more pictures

Mobile Tualations use Socket 478A will add it. So nobody gets confused with Socket 479 (478C) used by Dothan/Banias. These 478/479 are tricky.
Thx for your feedback, good idea to add socket 478A! I was just confused by all those similar sockets. I have one Pentium III-M here in front of me and its pin compatible with Socket M, too bad it will never work with my i975Xa-YDG...
Anyway I forget to add Celerons for Socket 478A.
#18 Also add to Socket 478A
Mobile Celeron 733Mhz (Coppermine)
Mobile Celeron 800Mhz s479 (Coppermine)
Mobile Celeron 866Mhz (Coppermine)
Mobile Celeron 933Mhz (Coppermine)

Just doing some database cleanup and additions.
Sometimes its a little bit hard to make everything correct as CPU-Z doenst distinguish between BGA and PGA sockets. In this case I didnt added them twice. But by looking in our db MCA and MMC seems to be detected so I added them. Unfortunately CPU-Z is buggy detecting most Sockets as nanoBGA2 which seem only correct for VIA CPUs.

Problem is: I simply cant find a Mobile Pentium III with 667Mhz. Its either 650Mhz or 700Mhz.
-
Well I it seems that this CPU official never did exist. Or at least I cant find any information.

Some years back we had monthly competitions on hwbot often featuring some old but gold hardware. Often goal was to achieve fastest result in benchmark x featuring using socket z.
There was often lot of research necessary for finding best CPU / Mobo combination and of course find those items on the market...
To be honest, Im missing those competitions...
I know Team and Country Cup often has some stages for old hardware but why should we do this fun just 2 times in a year?
So my idea would be to establish an ongoing competition using all results that are already in the bot. I really, really would like to see some of those benchers who showed incredible skills with old hardware a little more often in the spotlight. So the idea is to create yet another league called "classic" which is actually something more of a mod to hwbot than a league.
You know playing with old hardware can be really fun but often there isnt much competition and therefore points worth spending lot of time for research, modding and of course hours of time just to complete some benchmarks. The idea is to create a ranking which just includes classic cpu sockets featuring single core cpus (Intel up to s478, AMD up to s754) and graphic cards featuring up to dx8 (Geforce 4, Radeon 8000). Ranking system could be the same like we already have in the bot. Means best 20 hardware points and best 15 global points plus a classic hardware master league equal to current hardware master league.
Oh and global points would be awarded totally different. Right now we award a zillion of different benchmarks with globals. Of course not a single of those new benchmarks runs on vintage hardware. So the idea is to concentrate on the classic benchs and instead award a zillion of different cpu sockets and slots.
i.e.
superpi 1m slot A
2x wprime socket 370
pifast socket 479
superpi 32m socket 7
...
For graphic cards there could be fastest dx6, dx7, dx8. Of course, this would probably mean to enable points for 3DMark 2000 and 99.
I hope I could explain the basic idea behind this. I think this would be fun for all who still know that overclocking was actually badly needed to have a decent system and all those mad scientists that appeared out of nowhere and showed tricks that doubled your system speed and made you feel happier than any 1.1V 5 Ghz Haswell ever could do.
-
When I remembering some years ago I submitted a result using a watercooled TEC on a Pentium 3 which was worth 2hw points and next day I began to wonder why my position in the league was now 500 places worse...
Really I couldnt understand why bot do this kind of punishment for trying something new.
So my opinion is, dont let us think too strict. Why people always have to be part of one particular league? Whats the advantage?
Lets say your are an ambitious Rookie. During the first 6 months you have your place in Rookie league all is fine but maybe you say, its not enough for you to be only on water. Maybe you want to participate a team event with DICE or LN2 and someone of your team mates will guide you to do than you would switch automatically to extreme. -Very bad
So my proposal is let him rank in Novice, Enthusiast and Extreme at the same time! Of course your extreme cooling results would only count in extreme league but the rest of your results remain like they were before. You stay in Rookie league to have the motivation but also see what happens when those 6 / 12 months "protection" is over.
I know this would require some extra server power but it would be my view of a fair and motivating ranking system

bugs:
Challenger 2015 Div V Round 1:
"Only make submissions with a 195 videocard."
Challenger 2015 Div II Round 1
Heaven DX11
"a videocard with the 2375,2408,2049,2050,2064,2116,2370,2110,2334,2114,2160 core"

Yup, finally I tried them. Seems they can produce some good results.
Still think, this should be probably under .58 but still a huge jump from my old ripjaws.
-
You definitely need X04, I train my mems now with samsung tight memory profile, then I lock rtls before I alter some of my subs. If this is booting I try to tighten rtls even more. And then I work on the subs and thirds. Often I need 1-3 trys before board boots successfully. At least I figured it out, though it seems my performance is still poor but at least Im finally under 6 minutes.
-
Everytime I submit, I dont get ranked. I always get rank n/a and not "Strunkenbolds best xyz position". I always have to hit recalculate. Very annoying.
-
You cant set tcWL=6 with other bios then X04. You have to stick to 7 otherwise board hangs at C0.
-
X04
They even didnt solve tcWL bug with 7e or X08.
-
Is there a way to set RTLs? Mine seem to be very high like 47/48 9/10. Also every reboot they seem to differ, so a good sp32m run is coincidence.
And how to get tcwl=6 ? Every time I try to set, board hangs with C0.
Im on Z97X SOC Force F7e and Samsung ICs running 1400Mhz CL9-12-12-21

Very interesting read...
Stopped benching PCM05 some years ago when those super tweaks popped up. Then someone said a wrapper would be made... Waited another year, nothing happened. Gave it a try last year again for some scores but didnt tried more since then. Then this poll appeared, voted for 3dmark05 if I remember correctly, red nothing about results and totally forgot about this.
Now, I read again nothing in the news and just wonder why I lost 200 tpp. Atleast, now I know why...
If I get this correctly, we disable global points for this bench because we cant verify correctness? lol? Didnt we already said the same some years ago? Didnt all say "We have Mods that can distinguish between tweak and cheat?" What happened in the last 2 years that this changed?
Next thing what is questionable, you disable GP but leave hardware points on? 49.9 hw points for a result which no one can legitimate are ok but 15-30 gp for 3 and 5 core results are too much?
There is no question, there had something to be happen. I just wished we had some more option and actions hadnt be made silent.
-
You simply have to recalculate this submission. Sometimes, Hwbot server seems to have problem when uploading many subs in a row.
