Wrong competition sir :D

@richba5tard Hey rich, looks like the competition points are getting doubled for our seasonal ranking, is this by design or a bug? Ty.

PM'd

Radeon 5450 is old but easily accessable and very cheap. It's also heaps of fun to overclock once you get some volt mods on it, those things absolutely fly.

Sending PM

Now you just need Carlos or the likes to come back to repair your board

Woah the return of Jabski? You came back quicker than Jesus did anyway

We should be selling in euros instead for when our stock market crashes in a few months time

I probably wouldn't advise running hypers at that kinda voltage for too long, it's not going to do the longevity of them any good.

yeah please stop, the minor details such as accidently seleting liquid helium vs liquid nitrogen are not important in the slightest

You're on the right track I think. Maybe we limit the competition to biostar boards only?

It almost certainly a rampage 3 formula because 1. CPU-Z says so and 2. There isn't a Rampage II formula. Also no disrespect but is there any need to constantly necro bumb really old scores like this

even here in the UK, the supply has massively dried out, I'm going to have to try and have a look at pc recycling centers etc

2 x 24 pin also

There were some flying pigs last night, so I guess that means bench time for me

holy mother of efficiency batman, colour me inspired to give this a go myself.

don't mind 0+0 he has a particular sense of humour that very few people understand.

Well we at least need some sort of clean up on the results already on the system if we are to eventually give the benchmark points again. So making it a seperate benchmark at least is the easiest and cleanest way of doing it imho.

Can I suggest we reopen the upload page for HWBot prime as a seperate v 1.0+ benchmark and have it as a finite beta period. After which time all results are removed the database. This would allow for people to run the benchmark and for us to upload results to better find bugs and abnormalities. Also being clear up front that all results from the beta period will be cleared means we won't have any potentially bugged runs in the database after such time is over and people can't complain when the results are removed. Just my 2c anyway

Hex core CPU benching before it was cool :D

Untouchable no, almost impossible to beat maybe...

Reference clock is based off the motherboard socket and all CPU benchmarks are based off the CPUs intended socket. As simple as that

No the L3014 counts as a 771 CPU as it's based off the socket of the CPU itself

Garrrhh Leeg you still didn't answer the question though, I understand we can only use one socket once, but is socket determined by the CPU itself or the motherboard itself for the reference frequency stage only. All others are really clear because they are either CPU or VGA benchmark. Reference is a motherboard benchmark and I trying to determine if we are basing it off motherboard or CPU

It's not a case of it being confusing to me, I literally couldn't give 2 about whether it was motherboard or CPU it's based off, only that I got an official answer as it would determine what I'll be benching.
