Nope, there is no value to compare apples with oranges, XTU never required any screenshot even though sometimes it detects the CPU speed wrong. Verification screenshot requirements: N/A Verification datafile: Mandatory for submissions Example screenshot: N/A That submission is just a perfect example of user lazyness to properly submit the correct speeds and settings... Just await the final call of the moderator team, you are not the only thing they have to deal with and dripping more oil on a hot plate will not change anything to speed up the process...

If an Aussie tells it is off I will force it through

Did anyone present verify the score ? Did anyone verify the way you took the screenie ? Lol, that claim is so off track Alex... it is not because a HWbot staff member is in the room that all scores are automatically legit lol. Even after competitions scores are rechecked for submission issues, buggs etc... but they need to figure out this wrapper thing asap what is allowed yes or no... this is getting out of bounce and people start to take it too personally Off topic: Everybody knows Smoke has 30 legit keys for Photoshop lol, a full hardware crew modding the cards, 6 benchers, 3 photoshop teams and a room with a swimming pool, this thread is so escalating lol

It's coz you can, you still don't get the concept

Those legacy benchmarks have become CPU powered bu tonly when using recent cards not ? Does it really pay off to run a 6.5Ghz haswell with a 8600GT ? I vote let them be, many OCing records are never for ever... or you should lock them by CPU/platform being used

The coder of the benchmark also has to work along ( referrring to the tragic UCbench thing) or El Genieben has to be able to tackle it... For the Vendetta thing, now it will be either Genieben or CN that will block your scores, even if not being reported by another user so you have a 50% chance. Again not everybody can rewrite the code or is allowed too do so. Like I said before things don't change over night and Roman has stated it also that new rules are in the making... No action is done on pupose by anyone of the HWBOt crew to p i s s any of you guys off. Howeverit is all done to avoid bugged or tricked scores. It all takes loads of time and it might perfectly be that your score and others might be up again tomorrow... and like everything most things have a learning curve, sometimes it takes a few errors to set some things on the right track... Can we all kiss and hugg now ps: I'm not involved at all in this "communist" machinery, just giving my own two cents on the matter

First off all there is no personal vendetta or such going Alex. You make it shine out in that way as you are getting treated badly while others are apparently not. Secondly I didn't know communist behaviour was related to do doing it all on your own without asking anybody... where does all this frustration come from? Let us start with the basics: Why do submissions get blocked? 1) People report them 2) Scores are bugged (intentionally or not) 3) Screenshots lack verification Both Christian and El Genieben are workhorses, two human beings that take the effort to go in their free time to search for particular/special scores in the huge score database of HWBOT. Today you get the penalty, next day it will be me or some other person. A score achieved by using LN2/time and now all of the sudden it might get removed. Does that make anyone happy, ofcourse not. Question for you: Do you have any idea how many scores have been verified or still have to be checked ? Don't think so, so it is not something that can be done on a matter of hours. so plz for starters don't take it personally. Yes it is your own perogative to counteract a decision made by an admin/moderator but starting these kinds of threads including certain accusations ain't going to help at all. Yep even the moderators are only human and can block perfectly good scores. So address issues in polite and mature way, conversation is the only way something can be achieved or changed. Look at it from their side, they spend so much time to get things right and straight for ALL members. Now honestly Alex do you think they wanna damage our hobby? Yes don't forget it is still a hobby, so lighten up man. Sure there is money involved, but it should be first of all a way to spend your time with. Another question: How many users had their scores being removed for PCmark05? How many already for UCBench? Regulations were not clear: some tweaks were at a certain moment allowed. Than something changed and scores got reported and deleted. Did I lose points, yeap I did lose a lot for the team. I don't care for my own ranking as I'm a team player. But let us focus on the regulations issue and the cheating that constantly occurs. Again no-one is calling names here, so don't take it personally. Too many scores are bugged, tricked you name it. Photoshop has become as common as taking a selfie. Many think a few scores might get them on top and open the gates of free hardware. Others that are at that top want to stay there and might use loopholes or even assume anything goes. It is not an ideal world and some things have to be addressed, expect some losses. The HWBOT prime wrapper is indeed an issue. I usually save two screenshots to avoid the overlap thing. Honestly it should evolve in the same usage as the wrapper for AM3 and Heaven. Where one is obliged to open a CPU & CPU mem tab and then can press the save button and that is where it should be fully validated. It is an art to keep a system on the edge of stability up and running to make a proper screenshot. In your above AM3 score you provide the score from the wrapper with nothing in it... so the score is missing stuff don't you agree with that comment ? The second screenshot has all the required tabs, but is not made by the wrapper, which leaves room for you too add later on CPU-Z, GPU-Z and other stuff. A wrapper is made to leave less room open for photoshop artists and co. Does it completely avoid it, ofcourse not like Sam stated. The HWBOT Admin/moderators are already discussing this behind the scenes and it is not because one thing is not right today, that it won't be rectified tomorrow. Everything is a learning curve and experience is sometimes defined as the sum of all the errors. So don't get all too wound up, trying to define conspiracy theories, etc as there should be none... Is it frustrating at some points, yep it is, but you have to thank those that have defined their own set of rules that the HWBOT rules are in a constant changing mode... Nothing is changed over night...

CPU score is 226 mate, benchmark is Release R15 not 11.5 as you submitted

Nice work son ! CL11 also possible ?

I hope they call it Ucbench 2015 .... and unbuggable plz this time...

My FX-55 should also be around 9 years old ( at least )

Disable HT and indeed show us them memory timings, prolly way to loose there in the sec and tert timings

Cascade CPus only mate... Phase is good for around 5-5.1ish 3D speeds...

Happy B'day PJ!!

Kaboooumm

Sweet score a tie Maybe include mini weights with the PSU Ian

Makes me look 32 years younger :woot:

vcredist_x86.exe and AMD APP SDK v2.7 here worked fine for the FX-55

Any specific requirements, I have plenty

Nailed it man, great one!

Nice one man!! S775 rules!

Putting them in an excell format atm sir Massman will add the excel or the list to the first post, will update weekly from now on... Plz if all can provide from now on the following info: Batch nr VID Stable Cinebench R15 voltage for 4500MHz ( or lower) & type of cooling used (binning) Stable benchable on LN2/ H20 with required voltage CB and CBB for the particular CPU under cold Potato or not thank you

I fear Christian is just getting warmed up, he was born to put the OC community on the right track

We all have them issues mate, hence why I stated before delete all the submissions for UCbench and redo it when a unbuggable version pops up

I hope PJ can arrange that bubblebath suite again guys gimme some dates to book a few days before Computex and staying about a week later ? prolly going for Emirates, takes 4 hours longer but the flight is 400 euros less
