My result has been removed from the competition not because there is something really wrong or it's bugged etc but because "monitoring doesn't show load". It's because I was waiting too long to make a screenshot ... is it a reason to remove result from competition ?

 

In rules is "XTU Monitoring MUST show the CPU frequency DURING load. Results with monitoring disabled or not shown are invalid"

So it's showing CPU clock - 5.3GHz ( what is also in other window ) Monitoring isn't disabled and it's not hidden ... it just moved in time so you can't see full graph during the benchmark ... actually most results are missing most of this graph.

Yes: "XTU Monitoring MUST show the CPU frequency DURING load. Results with monitoring disabled or not shown are invalid"

 

actually most results are missing most of this graph.

 

Where? I checked TOP10 and they all have "load time" in the graph.

As you see, on my screenshot is 5.3GHz all the time. It simply had to show 5.3GHz during load as in idle it's also 5.3GHz. On the graph there is straight line showing 5.3GHz.

There is also no way it would throttle as it was made on cold.

 

With current time how long CPU-Z is loading it's not that hard to pass default time of 5min on the graph.

 

Result isn't any special and can compare it to any other 5820K at ~5.3GHz.

I said there are last couple of seconds/mins on the graphs on most screenshots. Big part of it is the same as on mine.

 

I understand if I was hidding something, trying to cheat or if my result was the best in competition but it's just like searching for an issue here. I won't win anything here and I won't rerun it as this chip is already degrading. But really you had to remove my result which would be what ... 10th+ in the stage ? because I clicked print screen too late ?

rules are rules and are made to be repcted

Let's wait for final ranking...

Congrats to dancop, you deserve it bro, you nailed it from the first week until the end, I like this. For sure your GEM (4770k) help you, but your 5.5 XTU are amazing... you are a nice competitor. I'm waiting next round for revenge

Thank you wiz!

It's always nice to compete with you!!!

Regarding my way of doing this...I like to show what is possible from the beginning on.

so I usually don't use too much backups

Congratz Daniel for the First Place.

Congrats to the winners...

 

I hope to see another competition like this soon, my CPU do not arrived on time

Congrats to all and especially to the winners, much congrats Daniel, Wiz, Michal !

It was fun, unfortunately not much free time to bench and no good 4770k/4790k

Waiting for next round

Hi Guy's

A browsing the rules again I noticed you need to use an ASUS vga so my round two subs may be disqualified as I used a EVGA 980 classy. If so the only setup VGA I have is a ASUS R9 295X2 can I use that?. Also I missed round 1 so does that disqualify me as well

Thanks Mkeys

Hi Meankeys,

 

- The R9 295X2 is a dual GPU graphics card, and for this competition only 1xGPU (single gpu) graphics cards are allowed

- Missing round 1 doesn't disqualify you from round 2, so you can still participate!
