The best thing is...with the same settings and without closing xtu I got one 0 ghz and once 3637228282ghz

 

I have still some ln2 left here...if you don't mind, come over and check my result

Did you apply any tweaks to the OS? Like disabling services?

No...nothing!

I just tried the high mem freq.

It was the first run exactly after boot...just to check stability!

And it worked pretty fine.

It was truly nothing changed! I promise

What about all BIOS settings @ stock?

Haven't tested...

Your line is almost straight which is okays. No bumps visible. However Max CPU 0 is strange.

 

MAX CPU at zero is that not nasty slow mode still enabled? - no its not that

Have a question about the weekly prizes......

 

If the leader for the 3 weeks will be the same person will he get all the three prizes ?

Yes, we are discussing this internally at the moment

 

please make SS mandatory on all XTU now as well while you are doing it

giorgioprimo, quote from rules:

"Week #1 ends on August 22, 4PM UTC. Week #2 ends August 29, 4PM UTC. Week #3 ends September 5, 4PM UTC. If you are winner of 1st week and still leader of 2nd week, the second motherboard will be provide for second position."

Did you guys made a decision for the XTU problem?

I just want to know if I need to prepare a XTU OS and test RAM for the weekend

For XTU check this post: http://forum.hwbot.org/showpost.php?p=328768&postcount=111

 

As long as your result is like the first picture you are safe.

 

Just not sure yet how we can solve the 0 GHz and 4565354325 GHz results.

Alright... have seen this like a kind of suggestion or idea and not as a final statement.

I will take care of these information in the screenshot!

Thanks Roman!

 

Will all new uploaded scores will be checked?

Or is there just one check for plausibility and errors/mistakes/tweaks at the end of the competition?

 

If the first point is true I will upload some stock/light OC scores just to check if all Screenshots and Validation-Files are ok.

Just to prevent something happens like we seen during MOA

You mean that we get "0" value or "crazy number" is not valid ??

Just keep the mouse on the monitoring lines for utilisation, clocks and temps, while the benchmark were load!

Then a vertical white line appears, which will also be on the screenshot. The line shows you the actual clocks while load on the left of the monitoring window...when you move it from left to right, you see changing, at least, the utilisation of the cpu!

With that way, we all know, what were the clocks while load...pretty easy...isn't it?

I'm getting 0Ghz also. Normal boot, no diagnostics mode or disabled services.

I've seen similar behaviour when you run HPET off, but I haven't messed with HPET in Win and I belive it's on in bios.

Edited August 27, 201410 yr by twisted1

HPET should be enabled for Windows 8 based OSes for XTU to work correctly.

I was on win7 though. And HPET is enabled in bios. Haven't messed with enabling it in windows.

 

Perhaps I should enable it in windows.

Hmm, even with HPET enabled in BIOS and in windows I'm getting 0Ghz. Chipset drivers and IME installed. I've had it working before, tried in on w7/8.1, M5G/M5E/M7R and wont work on any of them now. Strange..

Sry, have to say again, score not shown in competition...

 

says screenshot required...

Z87 allowed ?

don't think so...only Z97

Forgot the link...

Want's a screenshot, but can't upload...

Did upload again, works now...

Did you submit via the normal way or via the competition submission way?

 

For datafile competitions it's best to submit via the competition page.

Will this be a problem in FSX Validation?

 

 

I have some valid results and at some point the results are not valid anymore.

Same OS (Windows 7!), same benchmark version, 4.29 systeminfo... all the same...

I benched even without restart.

First result is valid, second result (100 points higher) have time measurement problems.
