    One Question About 3DMark 06 Resolution

    in Submission & member moderation

    Posted

    I can only assume that your result was blocked because someone reported it. The moderators do not go around looking at peoples results. They will only look if someone reports the entry.

     

     

    So if you find results that are not run at the default setting report them, just as your result had to have been reported.

     

    All results are peer reviewed results. What that means is that those members who are benching the same hardware will police those results that are similar to theirs. Once a result is found that they do not think is correct, it could be bugged or have the wrong hardware specified or any of the 100's perfectly normal human error type glitches that are made during submission to the bot, then they report it (flag is a better word) and a moderator will have a look and decide what is the appropriate action to take.

     

    Now running benchmarks at default settings is mandatory - that includes the default benchmark screen resolution. Does not mean your screen has to be that resolution of course. Just that the benchmark not be changed from default setting.

    Dinos I know I could do better just do not have access to anything to freeze my toys :D :D :D So I am done for the 4000MHz plus side of things I guess.

     

    There is no way I can get my 750 to post at 235 on air so no gains for me in the 4Ghz competition are possible either. I have matched my time posted 14 times in the last couple of weeks but never bettered it in over 200 runs.

     

    Has been a great competition. Congrats to all that took part and especially to those who are contenders. The big winners are those of us who had the opportunity to bench with some parity using entry level budget CPU's. I certainly can not ask for more.

     

    Cheers

    *edit vcore fluctuates 1.478v - 1.482 v .....i hope it doesn't fluctuate @ 5ghz+ hehhehe

     

    I did not even measure actual - just set and forget. :P It is what I had to do. Oh and hope of course.

     

    I could only find a few pieces of Dry Ice from a local resturant that he was going to toss, to bench with. So my benching session was over too quick.

     

    Got my brand new one day old i3-530 CPU to 5.6 benchable but had no time to tweak or test what CW worked best or anything. Did some runs in Win7 just to get them done and have something to submit.:D

     

    Then started with the XP and CW. Made a difference - a big difference as I was able to cut 5 secs with the first attempt. But just how much who can say, I will never know. Managed only one more run before the DI was finished. :o And that is me done for the competition. 750 is back in my 24/7 box and the baby board and 530 are now the HTPC system.

     

    Thanks to HWOBOT and Gigabyte for the fun competition this last month. And I hope we have more competitions like this - ones that all can participate in and not just the lucky few with heaps of money to buy the kit.

     

    Budget is Best.

    I like overclocking for the sake of overclocking!

    Hell no you are not the only one. This is what benching and overcloking is all about - getting the best out of budget equipment and having a blast doing it. Has been a really good three weeks of fun with that tiny motherboard and two entry level CPU's. Toss in some OEM ram and a huge slice of learning how to bench 32mil, and you have the recipe for a good time overclocking.

     

     

     

     

    :D Not so sure about your poetry mind you.
