The moderation guidelines say that we can approve scores even if the verification is not 100% correct as long as it's not suspicious or a highly ranked wr run. the question is whether we accept results which have a link but no screenshot. I'm fine with both ways but we have to judge the same way.

Yes and that's weird isn't it? The FM-Link has a higher value as it's only mandatory for the top 20 and it "approves the screenshot" but it's not valid without a screenshot?

Sure I just need the clarification as well because there are often reports due to missing screenshots but the link is available. I always approve them

Yes the screenshot is required for PCM05 but for the 3DMarks it should be fine if the link is available. edit: Just an example: http://hwbot.org/submission/994172_kingpin_3dmark_vantage___performance_2x_geforce_gtx_480_50992_marks Vince always just posted the verification link in the past and it was always fine. He is the only one I remember doing that Result is 3 years old tho. I could be wrong tho. Not 100% sure at the moment to be honest. edit2: In the past it was written like that: I agree on the "All benchmarks require a validation screenshot" part but does it still apply if the link is available?

No, the screenshot is not required if a Futuremark link is available!

We all know the clock range of the Titans by now and you can be 100% sure that we will ask for video verification if somebody uploads a 1700 MHz Titan score with stock VRM. If you achieve a great score or high clocks maybe directly take a video showing the card and the result. Shouldn't be a problem nowadays since everybody owns a smartphone or even a camera.

Yes, intel will change that according to Massman.

please use the report function and dont comment on the submission

was testing with a i3 ivy bridge dual core for the dual core ranking. So points are actually fine looking at the other scores. I had about 1000 points with a 4770k at 4,3 GHz so performance should be fine. I will check that.

I just spent some more time with XTU and I can always reproduce the same thing. Even by overclocking with the XTU software the score does not change. As soon as I set the same values directly in the BIOS and boot into windows the score is improving. XTU shows the correct clock but still doesnt affect the score

The rule says no external VRM from a different vendor than MSI. So just cut a old lightning like GTX 580 and use that one as external VRM. Should be fine or?

I noticed something pretty strange yesterday. Boot into windows with 100 BCLK x 35 Multi 2000 Mhz Memory. Result was 360 Points. Increased clock with TurboV to 104 BCLK and reran the benchmark. Still 360 points. Closed benchmark, ran again and again 360 points. Tested several times even after a restart the result was the same. Boot into windows with 104 x 35 straight pushed it to 372 points. Now raising the BCLK to 107 the system still runs stable but the score stays the same. Pretty weird.

You have to install Service Pack 1 on windows 7. That should fix the performance.

I guess you're talking about water-cooling? Haswell is pretty much the same for moderate overclocking like ivy bridge. Depending on the quality of your CPU you should aim for about 4,3 GHz for 24/7 usage. Usually 1,25 Volt is enough on the vCore. Just keep track on your temperatures and don't exceed 80°C on the core. That should be safe. For the detailed OC you should read a good OC-Guide tho. Can't explain everything in this one posting. Sin made a good one for GIGABYTE but the process applies for ASUS aswell: http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?t=78510

Usually you dont need much voltage anyway. The G200 GPUs scale a lot more on temperature than voltage.

can you post a link to the submission?

you can always just upload a higher score. The old one will automatically be removed from the ranking

Cant browse the Socket 1150 mainboards

How low could you go with the 7 Ghz CPU?

Damn thats awesome

Here you go:

Bad luck still good job!
