Posted December 14, 201212 yr As those processors don't exist, the categories and submissions in those categories will be removed from HWBOT. http://hwbot.org/hardware/processor/pentium_2_200mhz/ http://hwbot.org/hardware/processor/pentium_2_233mhz_deschutes/ All submissions will be hard deleted. Thanks for your understanding and PM Massman if you want to complain

December 17, 201212 yr Crew Great news! You're one of those who still do their job, nice to look at the results.
December 17, 201212 yr Crew i wonder who added those categories back in the day. i would have never added something like that.
December 17, 201212 yr Crew Oh, I remember the first one having hardware even more "fun" than this Still have some of his masterpieces saved on my disk.
December 18, 201212 yr Crew Like I said before - I've seen CPUs (and have a number of them) that do exists, are mentioned on hardware sites but are not listed on HWBot. But I've never seen a CPU that is presented on HWBot but not listed anywhere else in the Net. So c'mon and paint it black, Bruce
December 22, 201212 yr Crew And I'll do more THX guys. Very nice to have you around. All of you. Like I said to Christian before - the best way to validate that a result is in the right category for Pre-K8 AMD and Pre-370 Intel would be a photo. There's no way to verify a CPU 100% by software.

December 23, 201212 yr A photo doesn't really prove anything about the result either, though. I guess in those categories we should just assume overclockers respect each other enough not to use different chips. Thanks for helping out!
December 24, 201212 yr Crew A photo doesn't prove, yes. But it confirms two things - first the CPU does exist and it's not a CPU-Z bug. And second - the user does have this CPU. For example, a Pentium Pro 133MHz does exist but for some users that were caught before I'd rather believe they emulated it than that they have this rare ES. Same goes for Pentium 1 vs Pentium 1 Mobile (CPU-Z isn't able to tell them apart http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=404891 ). User may assume that he has a mobile part because it's installed in a notebook (so he isn't trying to fiddle with the rules). But a photo might show that he has a desktop part in a notebook and the category was chosen wrong. I'd help out more but for the last years I was stopped by staffs ignorance. Until Ney came to the team and things started again.
