# of submissions / Popularity in Quick Search - Or ranking page

[voidn]

It existed for a little while in 3.0 I think. When you entered say "8800" in the Vga quick search it would list all the variations + (# of submissions).

 

Can we get that back? Extremely helpful when looking for popular hardware.

 

Or if that is too DB intensive how about a HW Popularity Ranking page?

I think we didn't make such a page to not put too much stress on the 'popular' hardware. Rather than using the term 'popular', we also prefer the term 'competitive'.

 

That being said, I don't really mind making such a page. Updating it once a week wouldn't really hurt the server, I think. Not sure what RichBa5tard thinks of it.

Actually, I just noticed all the info is in http://hwbot.org/browseHardwareVideoCards.do?gpuFamilyId=162 . Adding an "ALL" field to the Benchmark drop down menu would be handy.

 

"competitive" gotcha.

 

Edit:

 

Every info page has "Popularity: xxxx submissions were made using this processor.". Competitiveness?
