It's a shame that the few have ruined this for the many as is often the case. I didn't even know software cheats existed. I've always treated it like gpu benching where faster cpu's yield better scores along with optimizing your OS. With PCMark05 it's about faster HDD's and OS optimization. Try to play with all the tools the OS provides and see what yields the best scores. Before we scrap this alltogether I think we should continue to search for a viable solution. On HDD limits: By the reasoning I'm seeing here are we going to start limiting cpu scores in 3DMarkxx, because all of those benches are dated and everyone keeps rebenching old gpu's everytime they do a cpu upgrade? Why isn't that capped? Either let that go or be consistent with that methodology. There a lot of gpu points here that are cpu dependent. That will hurt a lot of teams, but it's the same thing. Capping a variable that very significantly affects the end result. @Scotty: No hard feelings here, everyone is entitled to an opinion and you've argued your point with sound reasoning.

obviously this needs to be corrected, how the heck do you edit your submission?
