Teemto Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 New version of Intel Extreme Tuning Utility will feature a built in benchmark in association with...hwbot.org! http://be.hardware.info/nieuws/30015/idf-intel-overklok-utility-integreert-hwbotorg Haven't immediately found an english site posting so you'll have to use google translate ;-) A quick search lead me to: http://www.hwbot.org/benchmark/xtu/ But we'll have to wait till Haswell before it becomes available.

Crew Leeghoofd Posted September 12, 2012 Crew Share Posted September 12, 2012 very cool !! Massman's Porsche is on the way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaPaKaH Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 waiting for a comment from Massman that this is NOT to make money... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 This is what 90% of our development time for the past couple of months has been dedicated to. It's a pretty big project, but a very interesting one! Looking forward to seeing it in action. Don't let this one aspect of the project fool you, this is bigger than just integrating a benchmark. Much much bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teemto Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 Please elaborate on the much bigger -> what else is in store? Intel sponsoring of Hwbot? Or do you mean bigger than the Porsche :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENiEBEN Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 - hardware specs are correct, not manually entered in a form. Much less error prone and more reliable. Site-wise or just for XTU bench? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaPaKaH Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 How much crap (win7, frameworks, etc) does it need to run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENiEBEN Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) How much crap (win7, frameworks, etc) does it need to run? I had a look at the XTU.msi, it needs NET3.5 (installed by default on Win7). EDIT: This application is only supported on Windows 7 or higher. You must be an administrator to install this program. This application requires .NET Framework 3.5 SP1. Please install the .NET Framework and then run this installer again. ..and it only starts on predefined platforms EDIT2: XTU with no launch criterias http://tiny.cc/xtumod Edited September 13, 2012 by GENiEBEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teemto Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 It's much bigger than just the integration of a new benchmark because of three reasons:- industry level security & encryption between HWBOT and XTU. Cheating is nearly impossible, or you'd need to borrow the supercomputers at NASA for a decade. Or have access to Turrican's hardware. : ) - hardware specs are correct, not manually entered in a form. Much less error prone and more reliable. - bios/uefi settings are can be shared, and if you have similar hardware you can apply the settings of another submission to your system with the click of a button. Don't try to apply one of k|ngp|n's world records to your aircooled system though. ;D That's indeed 'much bigger'. Very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Well the only thing I can say is. Nice job for everyone involved! And well I am going to keep en eye out for this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinster Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 So what is the hardware requirement for this? will all Intel CPU MB's be able to use this or only Intel Boards? will it work on 775MB's or older or only new socket types?

Massman Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I'm currently attending Intel IDF Beijing and tomorrow morning around 11AM local time, there is going to be a technical session on overclocking including further disclosue of this project. The slide will be made available for everyone to see afterwards . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K404 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 VERY awesome I hope it goes well!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 As we're getting closer to the release of the new software, things are looking more promising. Saw more than a couple of working boards this week ... . Soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobnova Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Awesome! I'm looking forward to checking this out. Could be huuuuuuuuuuuuuge for OCing and HWBot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massman Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Awesome! I'm looking forward to checking this out. Could be huuuuuuuuuuuuuge for OCing and HWBOT. That's what I hope too. We have been working on this project since January 2012 and it is really cool to be so close to the actual release. The project is mainly set up to lower the entry barrier for new overclockers, although it should be okay to use for the more advanced users as well. It's a first step, actually, as there are more plans for improvement in future releases. The initial goal is to have not just ODMs (MSI, ASROCK, etc) support it, but also OEMs (Alienware, Lenovo, etc) and of course pre-installed on systems built by SI. Judging by the feedback I get from Intel, I get the feeling they are very serious about overclocking and enthusiasts. Obviously there is an economical reason for this (read: more money), but I don't see any reason to dislike a company that wants to generate more income by increasing the amount of overclockers, haha. I think XTU will be a very good tool for OC workshops as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtreme Addict Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 It may be a breakthrough for us. Even though I have feeling it won't be interesting (yet) for serious ocers - it's the first step. Good to see Intel involved in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtreme Addict Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Does it scale with mems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Seems so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtreme Addict Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 But with mem frequency or timings also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Haven't tested it that much in depth, but so far it scales with memory enough to need high frequency to get the top scores. Just as a reminder: this is not a benchmark designed for competitive overclocking. It's designed as a quick performance indication to be uploaded along with an OC profile. The benchmark rankings are just another way to have fun with XTU . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
