PCMark05 Tweaking Thread

I can't test this 'cause I can't validate since last winter.

 

1.5.6 ? too new Test 1.2.x I've found 1.2.3 and 1.2.4

 

If we update IE9 why don't update them ?

 

@pro : I've found drivers searching by google I don't think they're so special.

 

@cherv : Is 120hz monitor needed to make trasparent windows in upper left section of monitor ( as your video ) ?

 

No, switch 120Hz you can get extra 10K ~ 15K , 69K is using 100Hz , 120Hz will boost more.

Touch Screen is much faster....!!

Tried once with touchpad, my fingers didn't like

Did you ever tested updated edition of DLL files ?

I did. They do add much performance but are clearly restricted by the rules. I was testing this back in the days when rules weren't that clear about modifying the files.

 

pro, do I understand correctly that in your TW you have only the windows titles flying around? Is such stuff allowed?

So is anyone here going to drop a hint as to how they're messing with the GDI+ stuff? I haven't been able to figure out how to get the TW test to look like the one on Pro's video.

32m is for noobs, 01 same

 

 

U mad?

[BenchZowner]

PC Mark05 has become the most tweakable ( and probably annoying ) benchmark since last year

If you want to make the perfect run there are so many variables to take care of, and enough luck to get the best subtests scores at their max value at the very same time, have fun with that

it looks like bob's tweak isnt taking effect. use pro's directions and it works 100%. also as a hint to transparent windows... setting core affinity on pcmark05.exe does absolutely nothing for the bench. if you manage to set priority, it will fail the benchmark. pcmark05 must be run at normal priority.

[Tweak-venetica-]

oke that makes sense thanx , ( about affinity ) oke pro's directions .... that would be located on the first page im guessing ? if not .

 

link pleeeez

[Tweak-venetica-]

okay guys a few guys still having problem with bob tweak, easy way to do it,

 

1. open pcmark, then open the details tab, where you normally see the game tests displayed

2. change theme to classic

3. lock computer

4. unlock computer

5. you will notice the details tab is now an inverted grey, now you know the tweak has worked

6. change back to aero theme

 

this method ?

[zeneffect]

this method ?

 

thats the one.

[I.M.O.G.]

Tweak-venetica, we have an easier tweak that works the same as the locking your computer thing. That isn't the tweak thats getting these guys to 60K or higher.

[pro]

Crazy new finds gluc, the audio encoding makes sense but I'm scratching my head with latency

 

How is it possible to change memory latency score to that magnitude unless the benchmark incorrectly calculates it? It is unlike any tweak we have seen in any benchmark and is preety crazy, i like it haha
