Winners are top 3 (you got your mail :p) , nothing changes on the E-sports ranking, for the lucky draw winners, one Russian guy still hasn't replied, once I get hold of him it will be finailized.... He has till Wednesday to reply, otherwise the system will draw another lucky draw winner

Matt will be back end of next week of a biss trip, meanwhile I want to make a select group of people of e.g. teamcaptains (as we have noticed making a poll never worked in the future) to talk about points and benchmark your users want. Only topic which is not debatable is that 3.3 scores will be mixed with prevvious scores. We also have two cinebenches, why not two GPUPIs?

nope, 3.2 is valid, 3.3 won't

sad but true, and removed

3.2 and below Scotty, sorry I can't accept 3.3 like this

At least people will still benefit from their hard work done in the past, which is completely eradicated by this new version... Stuff has been handled wrongly in the past, this time it might be my time to make the mistake, yet carry full repsonsability. Version 3.2 will still be used for 100M and 1B for CPU / 32B for GPU. Nothing more and nothing less!

Both will not be accepted, sorry

I already talked to Matt today and this version will probably be called GPUPi4 and we will have to decide on other benchmarks for it. Let it be clear that I will not let this benchmark version interfere with scores of previous versions, not on my watch. Whatever happened in the past does not interest me at al. After some testing and debating I decided that these boosted algorythm scores will not be included in any current GPUPI ranking. Hate me for it, I don't care. The created stir just proves again that people just prefer easy points and not a challenge. @bigblock990You can bench whatever version you like, but till now only 3.2 or below will give you globals and hardware points. 3.3 will only give you pleasure and nothing in return at the Bot, untill a new benchmark is introduced.

Both, I quickly tested 3.2 versus the new one, sorry this is a no go

Scores removed... I will not accept this new version versus the old ones

There is no comparison, the designer changed the algorythms, this is a new benchmark to me. No scores will be accepted on this version!!

You assume everybody still has their gem CPUs. It is not only about latest generation processors, Anyway your reference to the 3Dmarks is not valid as you just add more CPU horsepower to the benchmark. The 3Dmark06 or Vantage algorythm doesn't change here. Which is the case here, GPU PI has drastically been altered and is not the same benchmark it was before. If Futuremark releases a version which boosts a 30% increase I wonder if you would just enjoy people beating your LN2 scores running stock GPUs. At the moment removing all points scores for 2D one by one... and deleting. We will set up with Matt a new benchmark for this. But these scores will not be compared with the old ones, all 3.3s will be deleted!!

DO NOT USE THIS VERSION, till the community finds a plausible solution for everyone!!!

It is as simple as it is at the moment,, do not post scores with the new version. Wwe will need to debate amongst members and staff about the usage of this new speedy gonzales version of GPUPI. The score improvement is way too big (even up to 30%) to just grant free usage and trash all scores ever done on this challenging benchmark In my humble opinion the new score is achieved way too easily and will stirr up rankings like we have never seen before. Making some happy and utters feel extremely gutted We will open a thread soon to ask for your opinions and eventual possible solutions Leeghoofd out

What does it prove in the sense of your overclocking capabilities? I would urge everybody to stop benching the new version till the HWBOT team sorts out a viable solution for the usage of the new optimized version!!

Sorry Matt but this new version is ridicilous in performance... 5200 beating 6900MHz, nothing to do with tweaking OS, finding right CL driver... You provided the boost for them If it was me this version could not be used on anyhting older than e.g. Kaby/Skylake X or 10 series nVIDIA GPUs Those that benefit won't complain, those which LN2 scores get beaten by air setups have a valid point for removal... Like Allen said maybe we need to move up a step and go for the heavier calculations.

Nothing in life is easy, there are always workarounds... but not gonna devote my limited time into this

Good score, but new GPUPI scores are silly...

Is this the Maxmem or normal mem version
