Yeah, I agree to that. It's not right to call people cheaters if all they did was to try to validate a bugged run - without intending to claim the WR. I like that ripping seems to "auto-add" x86-submissions to the database, but SOMETIMES it causes some trouble;)

Obviously bugged;) But I don't think it's a cheat.

I agree, too. If it is a bug, I can forgive a Black Joke. :lol2:
However, it is a problem if it is malicious fraud.

In any case only a registrant understands the truth....

It's quite easy to fix this... just remove the score (and perhaps the 4,5GHz Phenom as well... benchmarks anywhere)

in all my time spent spotting fakes, and such over the years.
the one obvious thing is always this...

WR's tend to be in small steps. not huge leaps.

WR one week 8100 mhz (631 P4 example) next week, 8120 mhz.... and so on.

WR's in huge leaps, from unknown names, with little more then a single screen shot, or single validation... throw it out.
if its real, let them prove it. if they cant... too bad.

plain fact is - EVERY serious overclocker here, would do more then 1 screenshot for a WR.
even if it meant lowing the max OC by 300 mhz for a few small benchs.
anything to back up the OC.

... exactly;)

The two validations posted by massman are not from the same user, at least name wise they're not. How did you know the voltage on the first massman, forum post somewhere?

Rejected by CPU-Z 1.48

Does this mean anything or i am missing something

I found this score on ripping.org where it was added manually, I guess. The voltage was given there.

I talked to Franck today and he switched the score (Phenom) to unsure because of the reasons already given in this thread. The score really looks suspicious: a sudden increase and no threads, no pictures, no backups.

Well, what about this one ?

My jaws dropped down to the floor when i saw that....

I can vouch for that one. It was done on the stock AMD cooler and is 100% real

May be stock Vcore too , you know CPUz sometimes report wrong voltages :D

Well it happened in the beginning of the year as you can see, while playing a little with a spare pc at home....

....i think i was around HT = 278 or just over it, and after trying some settings, it freezed 3 or 4 times and then it booted like what i posted above...:shocked:

....obviously its some kind of bug/malfunction...after a reboot everything came back to normal...:p:

What do we need Nehalem for anyways:D

Didn't that Sempron slip though ORB and grab a world record? I seem to recall something like that.

Oj101 if you're referring to my "odd" sempron, i didn't even validate the result through cpu-z , since that would be unfair (although i don't think there would be a single case that they would consider it as valid)...

The specific result is only posted & marked as odd and not valid result in the "AMD OC result thread" in the AMD subforum of Thelab.gr, where i also state that it is obviously caused by a bug...

No, someone had their 30GHz or whatever Sempron ORB validated with a world record score.

Does this WR exist till now ? If it is, unfair...
