debs3759 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I just took a look at the CPU frequency results for the 3870K, and I see that the latest CPU-Z has rejected every result, no matter what the overclock. I also noticed that only 2 of the results gained any hardware points for that result, and they aren't the fastest results. In fact, most benches with this APU have resulted in 0 points for the best result! Does anyone know why the results are rejected by CPU-Z? Also, is that the reason why most of the results got no hw points? I'm asking because I will be benching one very soon, and as I know I won't be breaking any records, if I am likely to earn no points I may not push it as hard.

Formula350 Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Tried it with the latest version? CPU-Z 1.59.4 just got posted on Stasio's list of tools today. I haven't had my desktop connected to the network lately so I can't tell you if it's approving results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debs3759 Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 Thanks, I've now downloaded that. I can't test it yet as I'm waiting for the processor in the mail, but I will try it as soon as it arrives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 CPU-Z has had this problem for a long time. Officially, it's because the CPU isn't stable enough, but ... well, it happens to stock systems too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Ney Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I think they are all rejected due to validations with bus speed x2 on AMD's cpu on valid.canardpc.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
