Massman, you can compare 3DMark Vantage on older hardware and see that there is a difference
Some didn't want to install Vista and the didn't run the benchmark.
-
Maybe Bruce was speaking about DX11 for DX11 cards and DX9 for the rest? Then there's no over-weighted categories.
-
LOL
I thought that 109 are the boints achieved but it's the benchmark score
-
Agree to this and 3D benching for me and my teammates will be closed as we can't afford and i7 (not speaking about gulf, at least 920) config and Wolfdale for each team member. Disagree and guys that binned a Gulftown will proceed using it for 5-10 members. As they binned it, they can easily post a photo with 10-20 gulfs so nothing will change for them.

Even fans and thermal grease? Total prohibition is unwise - ridiculous situations like PSU and other stuff. You want to change the disallowed list - make an opinion. But don't suggest to disallow just everything.
-
You've just posted an obvious fact - where's the opinion? As to me an opinion is either a statement to be discussed or a suggestion on how to fix this. Don't see none of these. Or retelling the facts is it?
Don't judge this as offensive.

Some 6OXET power? Nice one, GraduS.

LOL on thatFirst of all, we have a staff of moderators to ensure that whoever is moderating is not doing it because of personal/team objectives, but to keep HWBOT clean.
Agree on that. And there are such ways, you know. I've written you a number of times on this as I remember.And by better I mean: less cheaters, but also not making it extremely complex and slow. We want to remove cheaters, but not by making the validation process 10x longer. -
You realized that only now?
-
Nice score!
Look like a little contest starting up - I better grab some pizza and beer and watch the show
-
The main question is whether it'll be s/w accessible
-
Wow! 212 is insane!
GraduS, it's on air
-
Can people who run the competition check whether the memory frequency is shown only in CPU-Z 1.55 or both 1.54 and 1.55? Looks like Franck made another stealth update a I don't know what bugs I've reported on he did fix and which ones he didn't
I know he fixed an old bug used by a number of cheaters, checked that.

How can you prove that the piano didn't fall from the window by accident?Only action deserving lifetime ban on HWbot should be killing another bencher in real-life... yeah
-
Nice result, OptyTrooper!
-
I'll write Franck after he fixes the bugs I've written before. If I send him more bug reports of feature requests, he'll stop writing back like Massman
-
No, I've seen it, thank you
-
Officially - yes. But sometimes you just have to ask and say "please"
-
I don't see any problems in your submission. You mean it doesn't show the default frequency? Well, Linux isn't able too - it can make you think it does
Take a socket 7, change the multi and Linux will get confused too.
-
TiN was born with a soldering iron in his hand - make sure that guys tells the same
-
Lol
-
DrSwizz, you uploaded two validation files. I asked to the "TXT report"
it's on the last tab, the "About" one. -
I'm not rushing anywhere
Anyway it's up to Franck when he has time to implement this. And at this moment he doesn't. So it doesn't change anything.
New rule suggestion / adjustment
in HWBOT Development: bugs, features and suggestions

This was discussed quite a number of times. I've suggested this one in 2007 and I'm pretty sure that I wasn't the first one.
I want to argue on a complication:
Massman, if I post 20 results on one piece of hardware in one benchmark and a guy posts a worse score - he'll get like if he was 21st or 2nd?As for the second - yes, such situation makes it harder for the novice but this will shift the situation like it was with rev. 2 - more people will go to old-school since it's easier to grab scores there. They'll bring a big variety of categories, not like it's now - "Get an i7 rig, and plug as much G80, G92, RV770, RV870 as you can and you'll get more boints than this guy ever see even with his amount of CPUs".
I hope you follow my mind
Yes, a novice won't get scores on a stock 4870, but how much can he make in 3DMark01 on stock now?
Is the situation really going to get worse? No, it's going to get different. Newcomers won't try to get hot hardware in order to make the category even more hot but they'll more likely get less popular one and improve their skills in such a sandbox.
It's just an answer on your arguments, I don't say this way is perfect - it obviously isn't like many others are too.
