Precisions about XTU rules + W10

[Taloken]

Hi all.

 

 

First, for XTU, can the settings be private are they have to be public ? please explicitly precise it in bench's rules ^^

 

 

Also, in all concerned benchs rules, can you add W10 in the list of disallowed W8 based OS ? It's not explicit and some people are tented to use this consciously for submitting invalid scores.

 

 

Thx !

Win10 is not forbidden.

Settings can be private for regular scores. For competitions they can be private unless specified otherwise.

You mean that 10 is not impacted by the RTC bug ? Oo

 

Thx for the precisions

The rtc bug also occurs at win10, so please note that all restrictions that are referring to win8 also refer to win10 - win8 is allowed at xtu as well because it was tested and the rtc does not influence the score

For those who enjoy information,

 

XTU was affected by this RTC bug/feature (depends if you ask Microsoft) in every version before v4.2.0.8. Intel changed the timer to HPET and since then Windows 8/8.1/10 are all fine to be used with XTU

On Win 7 XTU used to be effected by the RTC bug lol
