  1. yes, account has to be unlocked, this will be done soon, it is because we had too much spam bots lately -welcome

  2. You could have mine now that I do not bin memory anymore, but shipping will eat you alive - if Asrock clears warehouse it might be better to wait
  3. Did you uninstall the old sys info before you installed 4,48? It can also cause conflicts if you update without removing old version, I hope you can find the problem and bench on. We do not want to annoy people for sure^^ - it is just that we have to look for the bad guys and make precautions, these are few, sorry that the honest guys suffer from this as well P.S I made a check again today on some stages, for stage 1, x265 1080p, please note that the screenshot has to be part of the benchmarkfile and has to be submitted with the benchmark file - this is similar to hwbotprime for example. We can and will not accept discrete screenshots for verification, and a screenshot obtained with file on which cpuz is missing is not valid. So open the cpuz tabs before you save the file or submit to hwbot directly to guarantee you have an accepted verification. Thank you
  4. Using latest sys info is always mandatory for comps, normally even a link would be mandatory but we do not handle this strictly on community competitions (as long as win7 is used). If it does not work usually processes which are disabled or a software conflict with other drivers/tools causes this.
  5. We have a change obviously at the way database is handled, so device id no longer is valid to determine which class a card belongs to but the amount of shaders, Rops and so on. This might lead to flashing being allowed as it doesn´t matter anymore what model you buy but what gpu characeteristics are shown, a quadro then is determined by BIOS used it seems. Will update this when I have logical explanation for this why this refers to some cards and why I should not allow this here
  6. No idea, I will have to try on Impact if I can run 4133 49/50 with the 6100 or maybe even the 6600k, on my MOCF sample I cannot even boot 3866 49/50
  7. Testing gskill tridentz ddr4-4133 c19 "my wallet edition" - cpu on air, could be worse
  8. For future reference, at general rules 1,2 (unreleased/NDA hardware) there is a table that shows the use of unreleased hardware and also ES hardware.
  9. General rules are still valid, these rule out ES use at competitions unless they are explicitly allowed. I see no parapgraph that allows them, so they are out
  10. And another update - if you need an FM link which is the case for nearly all competition entries and especially for 8/10 where we treat this mandatory, use latest sys info. We are not anal on benchmark version if we do not ask explicitly for a certain build, you will find disallowed versions at rules anyway, but latest sys info, aka 4,48 atm, is needed to rule out problems cazsed by newer os and updates and so on. It is clear by rules and common sense to use 4,48, and it will make life easier for all of us. This is mandatory for all comps for a long time now, and even if mods did not look that tight on it on community competitions, it is now really time to do so Thanks in advance
  11. I gave around 1.95-2v max on mfr, and I am considered to be quite conservative on this. Others gave more, they are quite robust
  12. Please note that the windows8/10 restrictions are still valid for all non skylake systems because rtc bug is still not solved. This means you have to provide a futuremark validation link using latests enabled sys info for vantage and all other futuremark benchmarks that does not show time measurement error or timer off if you use one of these operating systems on haswell e or broadwell e or amd for example. Thanks
  13. As shown at ranking the result is divided by Core count of cpu used, if you use 5820 with 6 native cores, score is divided by 6
  14. I will repeat it, you had more than 4 months of time to make proposals, this is not!! hwbot made stages and I am tired of people complaining but not moving their a.. when it comes to give input - so all was too much work when Mr.Paco proposed the stages publicly (we made open thread with search for proposals here) for you to give input but now you can bunny around eternally? Sorry, being negative only or complaining when comp is already starting in a few days is not what I understand as constructive input. No one here stopped you from giving feedback 16 weeks ago or even later to discuss this P.S. We still have the rounds coming up, if you or others have realistic and decent proposals for round 2-5, you can still make proposals here http://forum.hwbot.org/showthread.php?t=160802&page=5 But honestly, Mr.Paco already invested lots of time and energy into the concept, why did you or others not give input before that you want certain stage for example with hardware included? It was an open thread, and I am sure there could have been made adjustments at one otr two rounds
