I thought the lights dimmed a little this morning

Motherboard was Asrock Z170 OC Formula, Database not populating

Maximus VII Formula board, not listed on database

Great live stream, great score considering equipment used.

Man monster score.

Do I assume correctly that no adaptors from slot 1 to socket 370 are allowed. Just need to be sure before I start searching for more crap to fill the house with.

Hey thanks for the rapid reply. Sorry i'm still relatively new to this.

I have got 1.78.3 working but it is very unreliable. The core voltage is miss reported off and on and it still freezes but only when I have a good score to screen shot. Back to 150 version of Cinebench and 3d mark submissions if that is OK. This old shit is starting to cause me to lose hair.

Can someone please tell me what is wrong with this CPUz Validation link https://valid.x86.fr/war9nx and why it is failing to upload.

Thanks TASOS, I have also tried setting DMI to 0 in the config file with no joy. I have also tried using 1.78.3 as a portable run from a USB which failed in the same way. I'll try clearing out all previous and reg entries. Thanks again for pointers.

I'm having major issues with CPUz freezing the system at about the 12 to 15% point whilst detecting processors. Version 1.50 works fine but I can not get a validation link and therefore can't compete in the % overclock round. Any ideas would be appreciated, I'm trying to use an Athlon XP 1700+ for this round.

Are there any operating system restrictions in this comp regarding geek bench running a 4790K as HWBot seem to stipulate one prior to Windows 8 while Sky and Caby Lake can use Window 8, 10.

I have the best Haswell, I'm taking that as a moral victory.

Has PCMark04 got a RNG that the score is processed through before displaying as the scores seem to be all over the place. Extra 500 MHz on the core and F m=lower score :-{ Anyone else notice this.

Yes could we clear this up as I've noticed a p35 chip in the WPrime rankings.

Why not the Quadro they are easier to find. I Have been looking here in the UK and there are no Ultra's, Pro's or Ti's. Can we use OEM cards eg Dell, Gateway ETC.

I made the mistake of getting 2 GX2's when I saw the rules on multi GPU's only to find 3D Mark Ice Storm hates Crossfire. Took a while to get them working in 4 way as well, then I saw the score :-(

Can we not ever never never use Real Bench again for Old School competitions. It's over 30 minutes of mind numbing boredom with the hardest test at the end, so you have to wait a long time for the inevitable system crash.

Thanks very much. should read the other post I guess had no clue from the title though ;-0

I've been looking at the submissions so far and they are using FX4600 cards which seem to be G80GL based. Is the G96 refering to the core if so aren't we taking the FX380 and FX580. The only others I can see are the mobile FX770M and FX1700M ones. Could someone clarify before I source something I can not use, thanks.

The verification guideline links are not correct, just like RR#23. Click HWBOT Prime and you get the guidelines for XTU submission Click both links for GPUPI for CPU and you are greeted with the Maxxmem ones. I got caught out last time with HWBOT Prime as I assumed that the details of OS were that of XTU as I was linked to it, plus the fact that it is stated in the overview that quote; "the validation process for the benchmarks is slightly different" Remember we are Rockies and some of us are a bit thicker than others----Thanks.

Skylake seems to have a massive XTU advantage over Haswell hardly seems worth competing if you do not have the latest kit.
