Is that were you excelled my little brotha

read LN2 tested OBR... I've had 10 pieces and only two could boot 5GHz air at +/- 1.4Vcore. Not even being called stable. .. Now I didn't have one that passed the CB test at sub 1.35 at 4800 It is not a must buy, you still decide for yourself... if you have three good ones, good for you :nana:

Very good explenation Andi. Though some reflections: the comparison with the 2 core result where 23K subs are faster is logic as the latter will have more cores of course. The 980Ti should be compared to the fastest running and most core equipped CPU in the Dbase. Maybe e.g. the 5960X... Global points seems on par really in most cases. I think we have to adress the GB points thing per benchmark: especially XTU Global points is the culprit for most 3D benchers. If we take the same CPU again i3-6320 in Cinebench (108 points) or in Wprime (98 points) thus scoring way lower global points than Ian's run while it is the fastest dual core on the Bot in some benchmarks. Than again most top XTU scores require LN2'ed memory, something many will also avoid... If we put money vs points yep than it all goes downhill again

Very cool feature to add...

hoppa Franky!!

balancing this in life is the hardest thing to do

lol I just asked Roman yesterday where the heck is Ian? Solid run slim guy!

No idea what the fuzz is about being 7th or 8th anyway? Next year less talking & more benching for everybody

GPUPI from version 2.2 Futuremarks FS and co from Systeminfo version 4.31 on... Read about the rules here: CPU: http://hwbot.org/benchmarks/processor GPU: http://hwbot.org/benchmarks/videocard

I think he was on the profile tab of XTU instead of the benchmark tab...

Strong score man, well done

I had a quick look at the scores, watch out with Geekbench stage, NO WIN8 or later unless you are using a SKylake CPU ( Intel ix 6xxx series) Always make sure the benchmark score is visible, plus the screenshot ( if needed) inlcudes the required CPU-Z tabs ( CPU & Mem tab) Bench on!!!

Checked all the scores, watch out for HWBOT Prime stage, no Win8 or later allowed on AMD CPUs... Read up on the rules at: http://hwbot.org/news/9703_application_57_rules/ Greetz Bench on!!

ow you bench retails now, time to stop OC, all is lost

I think another issue is the hardcore 3D benchers are just focussed on globals, while the real fun is with the old cards

This is my thought exactly, but I spoke with some unhappy 3D benchers. They reverse it. they claim: Because 2D gets more "easy" points, people are more interested to bench 2D... Dunno bout that statement... Do you think it would be interesting to have a 2D and 3D ranking on the frontpage. So the results are split? And the 3D guys also get their moment of attention... would that already encourage people to bench 3D more?

Interesting conversations here, grabbing some popcorn... we need more memes though

Newer architecture should be faster per IPC ? Anyway you know what I mean Gunnie Don't go to personal guys, Alex had no intention to attack Ronaldo, this is the way of the internet where things get out of hand in a matter of minutes... so keep your cool

Maybe that is why we should impose a CPU limit to the old benchies... Sounds weird but think about it. I know it will be but hard to control, unless we approach it as with the EK competition where we could only do max XXXX combined or XXXX CPU score... Like Kenny said it might be that at a certain point the CPU will take over as we are seeing with the older legacies and Vantage runs... FS and co will be next if Intel keeps on pumping them cores

X99,WIN10 and Geek don't match my friend. Rules are rules, I know how hard these target compos are, but we have to keep it fair for everybody. We all make mistakes, been there done that...

So George buy a 20.000 dollar fishing rod, catch a fish , take a selfie and throw it back... To be honest there's a lot of " I don't like this, I don't like that, it will never turn into that,... Plz provide some thoughts on how to improve things... The Bot has gone through so many versions and it always boils down to the same: I don't like the new algorythm, I don't get enough points,... Ow really ? I haven't notived much in all these years that I've been active here, I didn't experience a massive drop in my ranking. All is done for the better, but the knife will always cut on both sides... Where I think the root of all evil is: Many of you think you get into OC and get lots of freebies because you are ranked high or break some WRs. That has happened to a mere handfull of people. But not alone because they were active HWBot but also do their own development, write reviews, provide feedback and spend weeks debugging the darn board or card. Let me tell you: "The golden ages are over and done with" Yeah it is a hobby that can cost a freaking lot of money. But it is still you that decides in the end if you want to buy high end GPUs and cherry binned CPUs. You as an individual determine how far you want to push the envelope... so you blame the Bots algorythm because you wasted 10K on hardware and now you dropped in the ranking? Like stated by Alex, depending on the benchmarks, no points last forever. Records will get broken again, time after time, that is evolution my friends. Either you jump on the bandwagon and keep on riding it or jump off at a certain moment... Where you want to go is again fully up to you... I also wonder also what you guys think of OC becoming E-sport... is it again the green cash that thrives that thought ? We have more and more events worldwide. True we will never fill a football arena with 20000 mad gamers watching a boring card game alike Hardstone... I don't care as long as we can get together on any location, bench and have fun... you really think all E-sports players can make a living out of it... for sure, the happy few again... Criticizm is easy to do, constructive inputs is something else. Some of you look at the Bot as a bussiness machine where all the people involved earn lots of money because of your hard earned scores... Remember myself and loads of others do it all for your pleasure, read for free. The moderating, debating done in our free time coz we want to share our passion and improve it. Fly to Taiwan at our own expense just to hang out with one another and too have fun. That is a hobby my friends, as long as I can afford it I will do it. But the constant nagging is a true pain in the ass, as we get confronted with the same this and thats, time after time. Change something and it will result in others being unhappy... seems like a never ending story... Just my two cents... the guy staring back at you when looking in the mirror is the one that decides which way it al goes... you need to focus on the fun part instead of what do I get out of it...

not a bad ceepeeeuuuuuuuuuuu Peeet

hats off man, job done!!

Wow even the Greek GOD of OC approves thx guys, very easy going board and the CPU is still happy

Was the CPU delidded? Or is the difference in Mhz so huge between these CPUs?
