wouldn't it be better to create sort of idea box, to clearly see what people like/dislike, want to improve in the Rev3. My vote goes for this : 1) better boints spread for top 10-15 ( no matter what hardware ) 2) Cup awards again for top 3, medals for 4 and 5th place (in the hall of fame list) 3) WR scores top 10 need to be rewarded accordingly ( keep the nr of GPU's split like it is in Rev 3) And sorry for those that lost a lot of points, I too lost all my SLI score points. ( and makes the cards i bought less rewardfull, but I try to bench anything I can get my hands on) It's the new game, adapt to it. I prefer Rev 3, as I don't like being trounced by a dude that got the ability to buy 3 5XXXseries cards , runs them stock, backed up with a good CPU and gets awarded 30 points per benchmark for zero effort. If you payed big cash to get these points, sorry for you. Understand that this had to be corrected in some way. Buying points is plain silly. Like you have a 1500Hp F1 car with auto braking and steering. And finishing in the top all the time, just having to keep the accelerator pressed all the time. Does that give you the feeling you really achieved something ? Does it justify the insane cash some have spend to gain some these easy points ? Maybe for you it does, to me it doesn't at all... Sadly this new system also has a bad influence on those that really pushed the envelope. Gaining 0.1 points for litres of LN2 mmmm , needs to be corrected Give the new system some time, forget about the lost points and start to bench again, keeping the new system in mind ( hopefully with some slight alterations ) and let's all see how it evolves... Anyway Happy New Year and chill...

Is there a way to get another font or sortlike to distinguish the differents benchmarks when looking eg in the hall of fame ?

nope it's not ! that's where you are missing the point... I see some posts here complaining about the rev3. Then I look at their results, a big fast CPU, and stock clocked GPU's, maybe they got 150 points in the old rev due to the possesion of 1000 euro's on GPU's... them days are over :woot:

Then you are in the crowd they want to realign... seems you are missing the point of the rev3 and are just sort of digusted that the cash yo put into it isn't as rewarding anymore. Those who were on top in REv 2 will still be in Rev3... points for the easy I have loads of cash to spend crowd will be less... this was really getting silly as those that were able to buy 5970's and a good CPU gained more than those that benched their a s s es of to get anywhere... it had to be corrected somehow...sometime... somewhere... Give it some time it's it first day out, some things will prolly be adjusted on demand of the users... I enjoy overclocking for the fun of it, not for the points gained...

That is mostly for all top spots mate, also it ws liek that in Rev2 if you want big points. Yes in Rev3 you need to get LN2 out as the points are there for single cards and not for dual tri quad card setups... it takes more skill now tio get big points and not just wasting mega cash in the GPU department For the CPU's I would like to see it being recalibrated a bit more, as the top 5 takes points, the rest is pointless ( to bench )

I would just award more points per CPU for the TOP 10 per type Richba5tard. Maybe it's hard to implement but I see people running over 50% slower score getting the same points as me For the rest it will take some time to adapt and to see how it will evolve... I like Rev3 as I don't have the cash to get 2 or 3 59xx cards to get easy mega scores... It will take some time, some will feel robbed as they put hard earned cash into it and seem to loose big points... but we are on a better balanced playing field for everybody now... For the not commonly used hardware , I think the Hwbot crew wants to avoid that people went out and buy that special CPU, GPU to get easy cups and points... time to get some LN2... I have some issues with the screenshots Rich, already advised Massman. It sometimes wants me to down the image : afterwards it errors in Irfanview loads fine afterwards...

Congratz Romania for taking top spot ! Runners up Russia and Poland... You really gave us a god spanking... very consistent and devoted team benching going on !! Let's hope we have a few more competitions like this next year. Merry Xmass and Happy New Year to all.... @Chaos : very nice team benching there for poland in Stage 7. I think Massman will try to give you a run for ya money for sure... you got any backup scores ????
