FtW 420

Great run Patch, congrats man!

Just saw this, what happened to SniperOZ? Scores get deleted or removed?

Some good GPUs you have there bro, all 4 at 948 core. Wish I had more than 1 that could do that... Nice!

There it is, fast easy fix. Thanks man!

how often are the achievements calculated? I've hit 50 cups & medals a couple times now but only held em for a day or so before someone beats a score & the achievement doesn't register. Today I made rank 195 & wondering if the achievement for top 200 will go through before more submissions come in to knock me back a bit (everybody quit submitting till I get it dammit!). Yah I know I need to make my scores harder to beat, but still curious...

His run was done in xp though, so shouldn't make any difference anyway.

Only things I can see are you forgot to open the mem tab on one of the cpu-z windows, & attaching a picture of the rig (not sure if this is 100% a requirement or not, I do it anyway). Nice score BTW.

It's the XFX ddr3 card, I just picked the one with the highest stock mem.

yes, I used hicookie's pcie mod which was posted on xtremesystems.

Definitely a nice job, that's one heck of a boint bomb you dropped here with all the new submissions... Congrats man!

Thanks man, the gpu was loading at 1.55V, I'd like to get it on water or freeze it, but at least it's a cheap card. I'll give it more before the end of this competition however it is cooled.

A cheap card for people who haven't volt modded before , not a big loss if it goes wrong. Can also run it to death since it is pretty much useless for gaming.

I noticed I still show up in the #1 spot for 2 x 285 in vantage hall of fame but my profile says 2nd place & a silver cup. Invisible submission above me or bug? http://hwbot.org/rankings/benchmark/3dmark_vantage_-_performance/rankings?cores=2&hardware=geforce_gtx_285

All my best submissions since Dec.31 still get no points or awards.

I submitted a few scores for an 8800 gts 320 mb card & while they show up in the hall of fame in the right spots for the hardware, they are coming up saying 'not FtW 420's best 3DMark Vantage - Performance GeForce 8800 GTS 320 Mb submission, only best is ranked.' even though they are my best scores submitted for that hardware. They also show no points, & my profile has not updated with the new scores since they went in this morning. http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=936355 http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=936358 http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=936365

Got it. After reading that I went & looked through some of that other category & they are mixed up in there as well. Looking at the screenshots GPU-Z reports them all as Radeon x1650 series whether they are Pro or whatever, since buying the card used I was going by that so guess I can't even say for sure what my own card is. So no problem, thanks for explaining.

I realize that, but they have a section with their exact hardware specifications & instead of submitting there & competing against more submissions with their hardware & getting a lower ranking, they submit it as a (slightly) different card with much less submissions to get higher ranking. Does that mean I can just chose any x1650 category that will give me the best ranking whether I have that exact cards or not? You're basically saying that is OK & it shouldn't be.

I was benching a new (used) card last night & submitted my scores, looking at other scores in the hall of fame I see that the top 2 guys are using different videocards than the specs for the card I'm submitting x1650 512 mb is the card they are submitting: http://hwbot.org/hardware/videocard/radeon_x1650_ddr2 But x1650 256 mb is the card they are using, it has it's own section to submit to: http://hwbot.org/hardware/videocard/radeon_x1650_pro_ddr2 Says it was checked by a moderator (neoforce), does that mean we can just submit scores for similar hardware that we can get the highest ranking for? (hey I'm only number 6 for my card, if I submit it as this card I can be #1 yay) Doesn't make sense....
