Is using HWmonitor to show CPU temperatures OK?
websmile replied to buildzoid's topic in HWBOT Competitions
Yes, as long as the tool is working, we cannot handle this differently now that Ryzen needs also other tools -

There is nothing I have to defend on the hardware here because the Gigabyte series is one of the few competitions on which I had no ifluence on hardware selection. But I disagree on the statements about hardware being too expensive and useless 1. The 730GT is 50-60 Euros new at shops, on Ebay it sells for 35-40 often, even if you sell it for 30 you had 20 Euros invested for a decent competition 2. On the 7350K, the cpu is not cheap at 160-180 euros now. But we are at hwbot and we talk about the fastest dual core cpu now and most likely for a long time. Every bencher who does competitions and ranking benching will have to use this for years most likely. Other than on 1151, which now is beaten by Intel´s decision to move a quad core to HEDT X299 (facepalm) it is useable on enthusiast platform, it is unlocked and it will be most likely most performant dual core for years!. It is needed for Challanger div 3, it is and was used for tons of other comps including vendor sponsored stuff in the past and maybe in the future as well. While your 7700K in terms of dominance was killed by Intel´s decision to release the 7740K not even 5 months after official release of KabyLake the 7350K is still best of its class and most likely will be for years. -

OK, brother, this is now the 6th bugged 100k+ score you posted last days. I am a patient guy, but if I see such a score again you are out of hwbot - trolls not welcome remove xtu and reinstall newest version, if this doesn´t help bench something different^^ -

It was a decent competition, nontheless I am very disappointed by the participation, it would have deserved a lot more guys and the hardware needed was affordable and often already part of stock people had. Maybe time for comps with prices is over... Congratulation to the benchers who participated and the winners, good job -

Graphics doesn´t matter for 2D stages, you can use discrete card as well

websmile replied to mllrkllr88's topic in HWBOT Competitions
This is why I gave the warning but also said 400-450 will be ok depending on clocks and cooling for me. Noone intends to kill the work of people who invest time, effort and money for the competition. Decisions will be made in favour of benchers, but 500+ is something I have confirmed information about partial black screen runs and this is not the way a 3D benchmark is meant to be run. Handling is not easy, but I will try my best -

With all respect,this is completely wrong. It is your responsibility to watch your results, and if you have a black screen or the picture is rendered in a way that it is not visible anymore, this is part of rules of all 3d mark and catzilla benches for example that this is an invalid result. It is also your responsibility to check the plausibility of a result, and if you do not bother to check for example catzilla 730GT scores and ask yourself why you have higher raymarch, fur or whatever on your result than people with cpu and card on LN2 and hundreds of MHz more on both it is not the staff that has to take responsibility for this, but you. Sure it is easier to blame someone else when you simply do not do your job, sh.. on fairplay and simply upload what you have and hope that staff overlooks it. But then blaming people who adress this is nothing but a lame excuse P.S. Jason, the choice of benchmarks will not change a single issue. We used time spy for Galax qualifier and had big drama because some guys showed impressive scores and others claimed they are bugged. As long as some tweak, max out or prepare OS better than others, we will always have this problem. As said, I would not have bothered with raymarch here because margin is real low, but I had first some requests and then a report of one of the benchers that he thinks his score might be bugged. The problem is simple, when does tweaking stop and bugging starts, even with videoproof this would be impossible to judge if we accept artefacts for example... -

We cannot take the responsibility for all that members do - there are dozens of results of catzilla in the database for 730GT, if you check these you get a landmark of what is possible and what not. With a couple of thousand of videocards of which a lot of have different characteristics and vulnerabilities people have to check this themselves, it is their responsibility and it is easy. All benchmarks can cause bugged runs, staffs job is only to weed out the worst ones because we usually decide in favour of benchers if we have dounts at borderline results. It is futile to discuss this anyway, each time we handle this a bit more strict we get criticized as well, even if someone asks like Leeghoofd recently did with a member, we get reactions we act unfair or this is not ok. -

Fact is that these benchmarks were selected not by hwbot, and that all benchmarks are vulnerable to bugs. A score of raymarch at 400 even on air is simply the result of if you get the card run at the limit before the driver reverts, artefacts are part of the game at 3ds. Unless we ask for videoproof of all results we get for competitions we have to put a limit somewhere by subtest and general score for results to avoid problems after the competition ended, and some cards are more vulnerable obviously for this kind of "boost" than others. What we face last years is another problem. If I take the catzilla and ice storm part here for example, a lot of people always cry "cheat" or "bug" when they cannot beat scores others can run. When they get the tweaks then or find the solution, suddenly all is OK. This development leads to benchmarks now that are barely tweakable like Time spy on which LOD and so on are completely forbidden, but even then people complain. I would not have bothered at all even about the 600 of OGS normally because it maybe 20-40 points in overall score and as stated above it is result of being able to run the card at absolute limit without getting an unrealistical score like posted above, which is what OC should be about, but the drama always starts then during and after the competition. So if you want to solve this problem, the only chance would be to stop making competitions for prizes, ban all tweaking and also ban volt mods and maybe even cold which push cards above the limit. I am not sure this is what competetive overclocking should be about. -

Load up what makes sense for you, I check and remove the creepy ones^^ - I tend to handle this in dubio pro bencher, but what is obvious cannot be accepted some benchmarks are hard to moderate -
Lets get some free stuff from Ney, if everybody does I want some as well - can you send me a list of your offers?

Closed, thanks for space hwbot

Wit win7 being mandatory for this and the trouble we already had at normal ranking and the quarrels at low clock we decided to take rtc bug safe benchmarks for this. I think it was a wise decision after AMD did not bother to do the job Intel was capable to do at 1151 (fixing rtc bug for the platform)

websmile replied to mllrkllr88's topic in HWBOT Competitions
This is mainly a thumb rule, if you have 300 raymarch normally there can be no wrong anyway. We have problems with catzilla Fliud and raymarch bugs for years now and this is hard to determine where bug starts after lucky run with tweaks ends. If your fur tests su... and you have 200 raymarch there will be no need to block, the problem is that this is a competition and because of the prices people always search for bugs when they cannot beat scores - but a normal raymarch is 300-350 max for this card, 450+ is normally not doable unless you have a ton of artefacts plus partially blackscreen. This happens when card is on the edge, and the driver doesn´t revert. So around 400-450 is max we can accept depending on card clocks. lilchronic`s Catzilla - 720p score: 4469 marks with a GeForce GT 730 (GK208, GDDR5) It can also happen if your card is no good overclocker and you are on the edge at 1200^^ -

I checked the catzilla scores after someone asked about raymarch scores, and the first scores in the lead are doubtful, to make a clear guideline for all, raymarch higher than fur test will be blocked, to make sure all is correct, even small margins can make a difference. -
