I only benched it last week, they have tied our points now so justice has been served.

I have literally spent hours trying to get that bench, I threw everything at it. Without going to better cooling I don't think I can pull clear. Originally we were on equal points which I was happy with. Too many other things to bench at the moment so will be a long time before I revisit this.

I should be ranked 3rd place ahead of Jokot who completed the bench almost 3 seconds slower than me but he is ranked 2nd and I'm ranked 5th. Looking at the table I should be on at least 73.1 points the same as Jokot which I was until NoMS made his submission which should be ranked 2nd. At least he has the correct points though. Hope it's not too much of a problem to sort out. Thanks in advance.

When I looked in the bios CPU was at about 17 degrees C ticking over, when I monitored under load it would crash if it hit 23 degrees C. Well happy!! I'll be concentrating on my FX8370 at the meet, time goes quick and want to try for an 8ghz CPUZ score. Once I have it dialed in I'll keep running other benches with it. Will lap it and start practising with it next weekend. I'll bring the FX6300 & Sabretooth as a backup.

This is the hardest score I've ever got, I even bought this motherboard purpose for the job!! Homebrew chiller rules!! Plus it was free and took me about half hour to make.

When I try to compare CPU's & graphics cards no benchmark results will load. Quite a handy section for general visitors to the site looking to upgrade hardware.

Could be, I had some on Fry Bench.

Homebrew chiller appears to be a success!!

+1 I've noticed this too.

Will definately be there, need to prep my Formula Z and go for an 8+ ghz clock on my FX 8370.

You got me beat.

6 core i9 beater!

Thanks but are submissions on Wondows 10 valid on hwBot if on any system or just Skylake & Kaby Lake etc?

I can't see any rules available for this benchmark and want to play with it on some of my older hardware but it won't run on Windows 7. Can I bench my FX, Haswell and Ryzen etc on it using Windows 10? Thanks

By the way it was the E-2160 that I tried on LN2 not this E-2180. Got a bit mixed up as it was so long since I did this benchmark.

Error code 500

I was using LOD, made a small amount of difference. Just looked at the maximum CPU speeds I got with the E-2160 on air. Before delid 2900 mhz approx on air. After delid 3200 mhz roughly on air. Something like 20 degrees C difference on one of the cores at 2.9ghz. I tried a TEC on that CPU but didn't upload as I wanted to stay in enthusiast league. I got 3.2ghz with that before the delid but once I did it the TEC was no better than just using a decent air cooler. In fact I think I got a few more mhz over 3.2 with just the tower cooler. I suppose for LN2 you are right it wouldn't make a difference, but I still like benching on air/water & chilled.

Maybe won't use that cpu again cold as it's past it's bext but I've got 3 decent X48 boards now and a few 775 cpu's. I coud do with a decent delid tool though as these old ones are really hard to do with a razor blade without damaging them. I bought one of ebay but it was rubbish. By the way Grorge now the competition is over what is the secret to decent scores with the GT 1030? I had decent CPU, memory and GPU clocks but still go beaten by people with slower setups. I tried tweaking every setting in the Nvidia 3d settings I could.

It was delided but no I didn't get a sub, as soon as I loaded CPUZ it crashed every time even when I kept lowering the clock. The CPU is over 10 years old so I guess it was degrading fast.

No, but I did try it on LN2 and I couldn't hold speed long enough to save CPUZ file, think I had it over 4.6ghz. My pot was bolted on though as didn't have the right bracket so that could be the problem.

Cannot submit as 3 core submission, please report.

I always bench Kaby Lake with Windows 7 now anyway as it gives better results most of the time. You don't need chipset drivers for most motherboards if you just want to run benches either, I don't bother loading them in anymore.

All my AMD cards do the same, use Catalyst 16 drivers. My cards do seem faster on the newer drivers if not overclocking though.

Won't let me submit with 3 cores it keeps reverting back to 2.

Even though it's non BE AMD overdrive let me up the multiplier long enough to use CPU-Z before crashing.
