Or this
3DMark11 Basic - free
3DMark11 Overclock - $5
3DMark11 Advanced - $20 - shows subtests score for easy screenshot
3DMark11 Professional - $999
what's the point of the $5 version in your setup?

cooperation?
3DMark11 Basic - free
3DMark11 Overclock - $5 - basic + shows subtests score for easy screenshot
3DMark11 Advanced - $20
3DMark11 Professional - $999
try to get a deal with FM to get -$5 off when HWbot sends a referrer to Futuremark to buy a product;
- HWbot users can get 3D11OC for free OR spend $15 and enjoy offline result storage and unlimited submissions published (for TOP 20)

gamer girl clans sometimes reach the finals in esports events, they do so on their own merits and they are respected for that.
Getting a "free" pass to such an event sucks for all the male competitors; those interested in the esport, not their epenis.
next we'll have OCers crossdressing to get into these events for free. Same as one of my friend disguises as a girl to get into dance clubs for free

define "false results"?
use this link to get all the good stuff: http://hwbot.org/forum/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=70,71,72,73,74,75,60,44

those dippers are quite a bunch!

"Pi sign sitting in a speeding car"

no
SLI/CF gives better results;
biggest advantage of Lucid is the mixed GPU mode
-
at best it will grow out to become similar to the gaming league I think.
-
energy efficient if you are using a CRT monitor.
LCD monitors use the same power for all white or all black
-
write a randomize algorithm that picks one benchmark & CPU/VGA from a pool of hardware based on popularity overtime, recent time, number of results per user, etc
that way you can still choose to manually pick stuff, or let the bot decide

google might help you

that's awesome, FM is one of the few companies around that actually listens to user feedback, even if support for 03/05 only accounts for <10% of activity

Jfyi
just Repeating This Again For The New Page.We Have Been Listening To The Feedback And We're Re-evaluating Our Options, So Stay Tuned For More Information Next Week.
While The Older Benchmarks Named Represent A Fairly Small Portion Of Total Futuremark Benchmark Usage, We Do Recognize That The Users Affected Are Our Very Core Audience, So Please Keep Voicing Your Opinion On This Matter And Stay Tuned For Further Information Next Week.
Thanks,

Release the validation process for the older versions to HWbot and other websites who wish to authenticate results instead of doing that yourself. The older 3DMark versions will maybe not be missed on the ORB as much as we'd miss being able to verify their validity for competition purposes on HWbot and other sites, whereever applicable..
^^ +1 vote for this approach.

you're from Canada, right Chew*? ;p
-
wait wait... are we building a manual database, posted on a site, where the biggest and baddest automated results database exist?
@Massman: get RB to code a quick extra PCMark05 field for XP start & General usage; then you can make nice queries from the dbase
-
best of both world is to change the vBulletin template and change the "new post" link to exclude the RSS feeds
http://hwbot.org/forum/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=70,71,72,73,74,76
that's the link ^^
that way you can see new posts by human, but still browse the RSS feed forums if you're interested
that's how I implemented at [M] with good result

when it comes to hardware sharing, it's not exactly cheating. Rather exploiting a loophole in the system. Closing it by removing any chance by teams to gain from sharing any HW component will just cause big teams to split up in 1001 small teams.

Ownership of what? If say Gigabyte wants to put up a banner, they'll look for a site that has most people from their target frequenting that site - and that is/was/will be HWBot. Doesn't matter if the site is situated in Denmark, since people from all over the world are here. And if they really want, any advertising campaing can be set so that it only targets people from a specific country - again, not ruling out HWBot.
in a perfect world it would work like that; however how it now works:
company asks site where they are located;
redirects them to local PR
-
Nobody smart would put HWBot into local category considering the variety of people here.
has nothing to do with "smart". All to do with ownership and where the site is situated.
-
See I am a partner of a local technology forum as well, and companies put their ads just for the marketing they get out of the forum, I am sure these companies will be more than willing to sponsor a decent amount just for the banners and with no say about what the rules of running the website of International caliber like hwbot are.
the international nature of the site might actually be a limiting factor if the sponsoring company puts the site in the basket of the local marketing budget.
HWBot owner -> Belgium -> Benelux budget -> tiny compared to US/UK/DE/TW
HWBot has year over year +94% more visitors
+125% more pageviews and +11% more new visitors
at this rate they'll surpass 2 million page views a month easily next year, which should give some good CPM for banner ads from small and big companies
they could also look into hiring an advertising company to do all advertising for them, thereby splitting the operational half (Massman, RB and others) from the monetary half (advertising)
making sure one doesn't influence the other.

easy to calculate Massman, extract a list of all members who post scores to this site at least 1 score per week.
that is your active membership where potentially you could expect subscription money from; take 30% of that number; multiply by €10/year and you have a number to work with
I voted €0
I'm not an active bencher, I post benchmarks for the team score if possible;
3DMark11 added to HWBOT?
in Benchmark software
