Anandech, tom's hw, guru3d are some of the most respected sites worldwide. Their readers ( millions ) do not care about LN2 benching. Do you really want us to believe that both Intel and Amd care about a couple of thousand crazy maniacs who bench, lol. No, they care about billions of gamers. That is their market target.

I did not observe Alby any serious reviewer anywhere refering to these cpus as 8+8 or 6+6. The products are advertised and sold by Intel as 16 and 12 core processors. Guru3d made comparisons with 5900X and 5950X. Both single core and multi. I am not exactly sure how and why this whole thing evolved. It is not my business. But my ears hear a lot of angry voices and laughters. Anyway, ee are all guests here, so our opinion does not carry any significant weight if any.

Seems that nowdays there is no objective way of evaluating things. If you THINK that it is an 8 core, then it is an 8 core. Illusionary way of looking at simple mathematics. Hwbot is happy, Intel is happy, 500 normal ( not elite and funded ) members are unhappy.

Don't bother mate. I lost overnight 200 career points and 80 career places. All reviewers consider ( and test ) 12900K as a 16 core cpu and 12600K as a 12 core cpu. As they are advertised and sold by Intel. Hwbot has a different opinion. More than 350 subs under Dice with genuine 6 and 8 core cpus zeroed. Well, who cares, lol. I was looking for a reason to stop buying expensive HW. And benching them. Aloha, hahaha.

All items are NOT for sale anymore. Thank you for the space HWBOT. Please close and move.

I know that both Kintaro ( from Hellas overclocking Team ) and Roman ( der8auer ) have a couple of those. Maybe try contacting them ? Regards

We must not try and re-invent the wheel Cores are cores, whatever tricks companies do to evolve technology and improve performance.

Hi, I am in Europe. I have a pristine cpu pot Der8auer Fusion 3.1 - full bundle plus a quality K probe attached. Color is blue. I am asking 180 $ for the pot and 90 $ for tracked shipping.

Sold. Thank you for the space HWBOT. Please close and move.

Hello, This cpu does 4.5ghz on ambient with 1.35V. Asking 140 euros plus shipping.

Fixed. Had to fully unistall Benchmate and manually delete all relevant folders and files and clean up registry. Reinstalled. Works OK now. Thanks and apologies for the fuzz.

Ohh my... Albrecht, I fully unistalled Benchmate and manually deleted all relevant folders and files. After a registry clean up, I reinstalled Benchmate. No issues now. Yet, my NEW 5950X submission is not accepted in the comp. George

Win 10. Samsung 28" 4k. Native 4k resolution. No pseudo resolution enabled. Problem is not constant. Seems to occur mostly with cbr20 and cbr23 benchmarks. Also either RTX 3080ti or RX6900XT do not make any difference. HDCP ' HDMI usage also makes no difference.

Thank you Albrecht. Much appreciated.

Each sub I saw before submitting was invalid by UL standards ( LOD ). Even Splave's and mkrl88. Ok, I will rerun. But block every single sub with LOD tweaks.

No Albrecht, Mat must find this out. Benchmate is imposed to users by HWBOT. Benchmate is designed by Mat. How on Earth am I supposed to know or find out why sometimes Benchmate captures the entire screen and sometimes not. I am not obliged to contact Mat. If there is a flaw in the capturing mechanism it is his problem to advise people and correct it. It is supposed to be an automated process. Well it is not. Because even when screenshot is ok, you must go back to the sub and fill in manually missing details without which the sub is not accepted for the comp. Thank you.

Min 38c, max 59c. 4850 with 1.43v. Sure this is on ambient mate ?

Strong score Antonio :)

192 euros here. And you cant find one. Not worth selling below 140. Then I keep it.

Up

Firestrike sub mate :)
