Validating CPU-Z with older versions

[K404]

I dont know much about the validation process.... I think I remember from old, that as soon as a new CPU-Z version was released, .cvf from previous versions wouldn't be accepted on the canard site?

 

Because of the bugs, I don't really wanna use the latest version... do I HAVE to use it or can I stick with 1.55?

These days it's a little bit "hit or miss", i remember I used 1.53 after 1.54 was out or something like that, it worked. However, to be 100% sure nothing goes wrong it's better to use the most recent one available.

You can still use the older version for a while, but not too long. canardpc valid won't allow you to submite with the older one after 1 or 2 weeks !

that seem to be new. in the past after a new version was out, the older one was immediately not validate-able anymore.

when the 1.55 was out, I was still submiting with the 1.54 for 2 weeks and then It says ''not the right version of cpuz please download the last one''(or smthg like that) .

if it's REALLY important and you ask Franck or Sam politely - you can validate even the pre1.55 dumps

In the spirit and the letter of the rule of Cpu-z, It is determinant and conclusive, "use the latest version and have the corresponding validation".

 

Any online CPU-Z submission must comply to the following rules:

 

use most recent CPU-Z version

have a valid canardpc validation link as verification, screenshots are no longer allowed since 19th May 2008. You can save your overclock and submit later if your benchrig is not connected to the internet.

use the same nickname in the CPU-Z submission as your hwbot name

 

IMO, I think that leaves no doubt

 

Better safe than sorry!

 

I fully agree with this
