July 3, 20159 yr Small note: from this round forward it's no longer allowed to use Xeon CPUs in the Rookie Rumble. Also, we will be checking for double accounts more closely.
July 6, 20159 yr Can you redo scores and get a higher overall score in the rookie rumble? I'm just curios, I probably won't stand a chance when the 5960x on dice come out of hiding along with a pentium...
July 6, 20159 yr You can submit as many scores as you want, Br3tt96. Especially if you're improving your score . Dry ice isn't allowed in this competition as that would push you straight into the Extreme League and this competition is only for Rookies.
July 8, 20159 yr Crew Plz make sure for HWBOT prime, no runs on Windows 8 or later due to RTC bug. For the score validation: make sure the needed CPU tabs are opened in the screenshot. A tip for HWBOT prime: move the save window around first than press the save button. This will make sure the HWBOT prime score is visible in the screenshot. Keep on pushing it!
July 12, 20159 yr Can someone please clarify the Windows 8 exclusion please. Slightly misleading as the links to the rules are wrong. HWBOT verification rules point to xtu rules and GPUPI rules point to MaxxMem regs. Took me a few to notice this. Please fix, Thanks! Salud
July 13, 20159 yr You can read the full explanation in this article: http://hwbot.org/news/9824_breaking_windows_8_benchmark_results_no_longer_accepted_at_hwbot/
July 31, 20159 yr Small note: from this round forward it's no longer allowed to use Xeon CPUs in the Rookie Rumble. Also, we will be checking for double accounts more closely.It would be awesome if this was updated in the rules sooner rather than later. If it was already done, thanks!
August 12, 20159 yr Can someone please let me know how to get a screenshot of my HWBOT Prime Benchmark so my submission doesn't get rejected again? When I press the save button, it saves a file to my desktop, but it's not a screenshot. Actually, I have no idea what kind of file it is.
August 13, 20159 yr The file includes a screenshot inside ^^ It's this one you have to upload on this page : http://hwbot.org/submit/benchmark/hwbot_prime/ Keep attention to the "file choose" window when saving the score, it can mask infos on screenshot sometimes
