What kind of error ?

* ONLY USE PROCESSORS USING SOCKET SOCKET 462. - YOUR SUBMISSION DOES NOT COMPLY TO THIS RULE

 

It then spits out a list of 462 procs, and the 1700+ Thoroughbred is not listed. Palomino is, but not Thoroughbred.

 

You need to run 1:1

Not really sure what you mean. Do you mean for ram?

Yes, you're right. It finds it in the database and suggests the right model, but when you try to submit, the lowest Thoroughbred is 1800+. I guess Massman should add it to the competition, right? Probably it's done manually for the competitions and he needs to select all allowed processors with a bunch of checkboxes?

 

If that's the case...Massman failed Spank him in the @ss, lol

[Turrican]

it's there

http://www.hwbot.org/hardware/processor/athlon_xp_1700_thoroughbred/

 

just type "1700+" and it shows up

It's in the database, that's not the issue. It doesn't appear in this list: http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac115/justnukeem/1700TB.png

and therefore won't be accepted. I duno how much of an issue it is, I called it a Palomino instead of a T-bred. The database doesn't have a couple of my motherboards in it either, but that's a different story.

Sounds like this is the problem. Actually, the 1600+ T-bred is there, so there just isn't any love for my 1700+ T-bred

ok, i think massman has to look at this problem. i'm sure he can solve it.

No checkboxes, dude. Our system is far more complex than that .

 

Okay, problem is fixed. For some reason, the 1700+ tbred did not have the right socket in the database. I changed it now

[Calathea]

Ahhh, I bought a i5 760 to have some bclk fun with p55-gd80... just to be welcomed by a 222Mhz-wall Anyone have any ideas?

[just_nuke_em]

Having more submitting problems. Why are some 462 mobos accepted and other not? Having problems with it accepting a Shuttle AN35, Asus A7N8X and A7N8X-E (only will take A7N8X-X).

[Massman]

What is the error? There should be no problem at all since the stage limitations are based on the socket linked to the CPU model and not the mainboard model.

[just_nuke_em]

The error is shown here http://i891.photobucket.com/albums/ac115/justnukeem/Untitled-3.png. This is shown after trying to submit this cpu-z http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1948825

 

As of a couple of hours ago, the Shuttle board works now, aka the model# pops up in the field when I start to fill it in. The only reason I can see is that it works now is that I was doing some other submissions today that seem to be the first use of that board model (this one for example. infact, the only 2 submissions for this board are mine that I made today). Coincidentally enough, some of the board that won't get accepted don't have sumissions in the reference clock categories, which makes me think there is a connection to it not accepting boards that have not been previously used. Or maybe the site is just mad at me?

[Massman]

Okay!

 

The problem is that the boards were not in the database yet. I have added them after your first post and that's why the AN35 board is working now. The A7N8X-E should be working as well.

Good to know, thanks.

30 min to go and I cant upload my score !!!!

epox EP-8RDA6+PRO

even tried as different mbo still getting error "Motherboard is required for motherboard benchmarks!"

 

OK it worked somehow but now I wont have time to properly bench my p4c800

Really nice for the epox

 

Too bad for the P4C800 though

[I.nfraR.ed]

Really strong FSB from the Epox board. I should have tried harder. Congrats for winning this stage.

 

Any way to recalculate the points for highest submissions? It seems it works only if you submit another one in the competition. Then the previous one gets the points.

hope next competition will be about old hardware again

when does the september competition start?

Yes indeed that Epox is a monster. Congrats. I tried SS on my NB...no worky.

[I.nfraR.ed]

It's CPU-dependent as well. I wanted to try dry ice on the NB, prepared the board, but had no time to go and buy dry ice.

I'll have it up by tomorrow
