  1. Stage 3 - Geekbench - URL required or not?

    In HWBot general rules its mandantory, but in stage rules only screenshot is needed...

    From the comments for the rules:

    "GENIEBEN SAYS:

    Well I can see why it's confusing. If you use the paid version that displays the score inside the app, then there is no need for a verification link. But if it's the freeware version that sends the score online, we'd have to see it's not a user generated html page with bogus scores."

  2. Dont think so. CMOS cleared right after LN2 session over. And about million frustrating times since then :P

     

    I isolated it down to a CPU/motherboard combo. I have another i7 6700K to test and an Asus M8G.

     

    For some reason i5 6400 + Z170 xpower cant reboot, stuck at 00 or 30.

     

    But if I swap for an i7 6700K the same Z170 xpower reboots normally.

    The i5 6400 that cant reboot on the xpower works fine and reboots on Asus M8G.

    I had reboot issues before as well. Bios 1.41 solved them for me on 6700Ks.

  3. One annoying thing however is that often after a bios flash the board enters a sort of mode where trying to reboot won't work 9/10 times. The errors are persistent and occur both at stock settings and under LN2. Both reboots after bios changes and reboot from windows gets stuck. You have to power off, reboot into bios because board reports failed boot, reboot again and it works most of the time. Sometimes it will take multiple tries to get successful boot. Sometimes a reflash of the bios will help cure this problem, but I'm hoping for a fix in upcoming bioses. I have seen this reported by another user so I'm not alone with this problem.

     

    Bios 1.41 fixed the reboot issue. I can also confir that 4 dimm now work with 1T. Have also done some testing on 4 dimm vs 2 dimm and there is NO performance gain when pushing frequency and timings with both 2 dimm and 4 dimm.

     

    However I have a problem with my board. It's probably just my board, and problem probably occurred during LN2. But it gets stuck with USB over current protection and shuts off after 15 seconds. I've tried to disconnect all USB devices of course but it doesn't help. Looked at the USB ports but they seem fine. Sometimes I can get the board to boot after resetting bios and powering on like 20 times. Then it works for a while, but after a few reboots it's there again. Is there any way to bypass this? Any way to hardmod it or something?
