this is a 1080p score not 4k.

Apex's ftw

yeah someone pointed it out to me last night, sub will be replaced tonight.

definitely gotta try direct die sometime monster score man!

heaven would be an excellent sub if we have to change benches.

Was a lot of fun! Congrats to the AU boys!

oc panel readout is 1.750 set 2.425 actual the left figure is basically what bios is set to right is actual. cpu-z readout is probably actual vcore the vcore doesn't report on my oc panel on my M7 Impact only vccin for some reason but if it did it would have to be selected to display vcore.

epower's bigger than the card! massive score!

simply amazing.

tooo fast nice!

gotta be sure to get good screenshots man, i take multiple if its a really good one

killing it.

was surprised it was able to do 6 ghz myself always been pleased with what this cpu can do though, thanks guys.

for me at least on a R6A with a 7820x neither cpu-z or hwinfo would report correct vcore, only asus software would. hwinfo will report vid which usually seemed right though, overall vcore reporting on x299 for me has been pretty crappy in software, on the 7740x for example everything reports exactly half of what it actually is except for asus software.

325 usd was what i ended up getting for it.

probably want to put a proper example in the stage info like example 1x of each i7 kaby lake i5 kaby lake i3 kaby lake i9 skylake i7 skylake i5 skylake i3 skylake etc. just so its clear.

anyone know what safe daily uncore offset voltage is? just curious because on auto the apex is setting it very high (+0.450) according to turbo-v (its the only thing that spits out what that is set to)

Frito`s 3DMark Vantage - Performance score: 72741 marks with a GeForce GTX 980 Ti proof the card works good, its in my rig right now working nicely, mem overclocks like crazy still not sure what the top end is I've always been nice to it the few times i have benched it

@Achill3uS not sure if my PM reply went through or not seems to disappear both times i sent it. in any event reply here if it didn't.

*SOLD*

kaby lake will take 1.5+ on water for a bench run. as Mick said it can be quite risky though but its CPU to use how he sees fit.

I mean i've ran 5374mhz on my 7600k for GB3 in the past Frito`s Geekbench3 - Single Core score: 6040 points with a Core i5 7600K other than them running a really high voltage for ambient which is their risk to take I don't see it being impossible to do on ambient TBH.

Indeed screen resolution limits is a pretty crazy excuse 1920 x 1080 displays are dirt cheap 2nd hand a dime a dozen and as you said even old CRTs could commonly do 1280 x 1024, 1600 x 1200 etc. Edit: sort of related, i had an XTU sub removed because XTU (incorrectly) reported 5.01 ghz due to bclk buggyness with XTU, i subbed it anyways as an improved score seeming to recall websmile saying 5,01 was alright and totally should have looked for what he stated in here to refresh my memory but didn't and once it was removed i looked that up and saw that he indeed said 5,00 XTU. 5003 in cpu-z. this sort of complaining is like if i complained about XTU being buggy and reporting 5,01 where cpuz never even broke 5 ghz ever with bclk drift but i did not so there is no point. The only thing i would say is it should be stated in the stage rules to make it easier to find (stage rules just said 5003 in cpu max) In any event though great competition everyone, this comp was actually what got me into overclocking comps on hwbot via r/overclocking and to websmile we appreciate the hard work you put in and know its not easy to moderate all this esp with the state of slowness of the site under load. I also apologize for subbing that XTU sub without re-checking what you stated in this thread i totally should have but idk was just pretty happy with my bump'd up score so i subbed it under the assumption i remembered correctly but obviously I didn't.

I'm not new to PC's or overclocking, my first pc was a Pentium 75mhz and i've been overclocking sense celeron 300A days but am new to getting into comps and such but i have to agree. The thing that has surprised me the most about HWBOT is that its almost at times how much you know about specific benchmarks and tweaks required to score highest for a given setup that matter end of the day and that info is usually hardest to figure out. its also kind of blown me away at how honor system everything is but i kinda understand that sense many benches can't produce specific validation files and whatnot but still if work was rewarded/put in on discovering really game breaking exploits like this one and then used to fix the situation that is better overall than just punishing the offenders for finding it but at the same time we'd need to expect everyone that finds a really lame exploit like this to report it and not just pretend like they found some special driver/software tweak that gives them the result and keep it a secret which in a competitive environment people will never be inclined to do so not sure how to handle it, it is quite difficult. But in any event to give my rookie .02 cents on things i think you'd see more participation if things required a bit less tweaking/discovering the trick to specific benches. Some of us find it fun to search and ask around to figure out how the heck people manage certain scores that seem impossible but at the same time it can be quite frustrating to newer competitive overclockers looking to get into it.

same was fun, not having a 7700k held me back, picked up one the other day for a good price but sadly its not a great clocker like my 7600k is
