Members GeorgeStorm Posted October 18, 2018 Members Share Posted October 18, 2018 LOD is allowed in most benchmarks, should say in the rules, TimeSpy it's not allowed I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this legal or not legal? I see quite a few of these submissions beating me (2080 TI Single GPU - Class) when I could have clearly used this to surpass many. Read the rules of the benchmark. It is explicitly allowed for all 3dmarks except timespy and timespy extreme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why it's the way it is becuase you can't tell. Relying on honesty will never work in competition. Do e-sports use cheat detection as well as judges or do they just say hey let's all be honest guys. Is this still allowed ? :)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GeorgeStorm Posted December 8, 2018 Members Share Posted December 8, 2018 In general that's been the way hwbot has worked, it's only the 'active' component which counts as sharing (gpu for 3d, cpu for most 2d, mem for mem benches, mobo for mobo freq). Not ideal but since you can't really prove otherwise better than nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
