Yeap.

Thnx:)

Stage 7 require AMD for both processor and GPU?

[Xtreme Addict]

Unlocking cores for UCBench isn't allowed?

No, only for CPU.

 

Unlocking cores for UCBench isn't allowed?

 

AFAIK disable cores isn't allowed but enable cores van be do it without problems.

[Ananerbe]

2 core CPU unlocked 4 core CPU allowed??? о_О

[xoqolatl]

Use 2 processor core(s) in total.

You must have a total of 2 cores after unlocking - you can unlock a Sempron to 2 cores, but you can't unlock a Phenom II X2 to 4 cores.

Stage 1: "Averange of top 5 scores by 5 users with 5 different setups"

why is for example united kingdom with a avg of 259,67 better than indonesia with a avg of 377,05? Oô

does avg of top 5 count or the summ?

[Christian Ney]

Yes, 5 people is more important than 3 people with better score

2 core CPU unlocked 4 core CPU allowed??? о_О

 

It's allowed for a stage that needs four cores (i.e wPrime)

What's up with the unigine problem ?

We can't run DX9 heaven as it freezes at scene7 .

That happens always even at stock clocks .

With 580 and 5870 no problem . But with 275 & 285 it stops at scene 7 . Tried with winxp , vista & win7

 

Is there a workaround ?

[Christian Ney]

I had this one as well, did not manage to fix it afaik

[I.nfraR.ed]

I've had that with HD4890

[LaTour]

I had it also, but with the normal Processor benchmarks

it works fine

memory related.

lower strap or relax timings will help.

Strap ? At p67 ? I tried also running the CPU at stock clocks and it didn't work .

 

But ... a few minutes ago i managed to make it work at win7 !

I played a bit with the windows services and i reinstalled the driver . It now works .

I disabled the audio services and that's all

 

At winxp this trick didn't work . At least i have a working OS .

 

I can't understand what is the problem with 1.0.3 version ...I doubt it's the audio services .

[Rasparthe]

you may need an audio driver and sound card if you don't have onboard audio. There is audio during the benchmark for some reason and if you have no driver perhaps it is causing the crash.

[Rasparthe]

Tested now. Before crashed at Stage 7 no matter if at stock or not. After installing audio card and drivers no longer crashes at Stage 7. Hope that helps!

[Massman]

Audio service, huh?

 

That's interesting!

[Stelaras]

Confirmed .

 

There is something wrong with the audio .

 

Try to enable the sound card and install the drivers . After this , disable the soundcard and the services again.

Good find guys

[GunGod]

Looks like some use only SSSE3 instructions for UCBENCH and score is still validated on anrieff.net. This help get some more mhz and test runs very fast is this allowed ? or we should run test with def. settings ?

[Turrican]

should be default i guess.

[GunGod]

Example:

default : http://hwbot.org/submission/2224442_gungod_ucbench_2011_core_i5_680_582.9_mpt_score

 

Only SSSE3 : http://hwbot.org/submission/2224444_gungod_ucbench_2011_core_i5_680_600_mpt_score?recalculate=true

 

Just notice this on other submissions
