new CPU-Z wont validate?

[MaRtIe]

hey guys sorry if this is the wrong section!

having a really strange problem since updating to the newest cpuz.

It seems to be detecting my 955 wrong and invalidating my Overclocks

Here is before i updated cpu-z (1.52.2)


Here is the messed up one (1.53). Notice the package name is now coming up as socket 939? it wont validate even at stock.

Great CPU you have there BTW...

1.53: (100% stable, 24/7 settings)

And my sig is the "suicide" valid....(1.52.2)


Package name however is changed for a reason, pinout number is wrong...(should be 938 for AM3) but it's correcting AM3 vs. AM2+.

aint a bad 955 is it.

yeah, i understand the AM3, part, just not the socket pin reading haha.

Guess we will have to sit tight for an update.

I've seen a number of rejected validations around with 1.53.

What cooling did you use for that 4.8GHz?

[Hedghawg71]

Mine too. I thought something was wrong at first but I started looking at everyone who has posted with theirs in the last week or so.

[Milans]

we have also problems with validating e.g.

even stock won't validate :/

does anyone have any solution?

[charged3800z24]

I haven't had any issues. I use the stand alone for 32bit and 64bit. I haven't tried the install version. Not sure if it is issue with both methods or not.

Mach 2 GT but it cant handle the load though, soon as any load hits the temps start to rocket.

I tried both stand alone and the install versions here. My laptop won't even validate successfully and I promise you it is as stock as it gets.

Im having a problem to i cant validate mine also

So i tryed to uninstalll it and reinstall and still nothing

anyone find out whats doing on?

[jedihobbit]

Glad to it isn't me!! Did my first attempt at validation today in a while and had to down load 1.53 before it would let do any thing. Wasn't paying attention so this is the only copy as I was "suiciding".

lol ... i had mine showing wrong vcore .. i used the stock vcore at 1.475v .. it's showing here 1.152v

Honestly, some of you guys crack me up...

"Oh, something is wrong with CPU-Z 1.53... It won't validate my 4.8Ghz run!!"

Not trying to be a jerk here, but did you ever think it's because your 4.8 run isn't really VALID?

In all reality, CPU-Z has been a little loose in the last couple years.
It's validated alot of things that aren't stable at all.

I had no problem getting a good validation with 1.53 (see Sig).
Then again, my rig actually is stable...

Personally, I'm thinking they finally fixed it.

CPU-Z is not suppose to validate stability, it is for validating a clock was actually achieved...period. drop the 'more stable than art thou' speech. there is clearly an issue with the latest CPU-Z and some CPU's/MB's or some other unknown variable apparently.

i only run Intel and 1.53 has been validating everything i have tried the last couple days, i would suggest contacting Franck with details as it may be something that came up with specific processors/boards. is there any rhyme to the pattern on invalid's showing up in this thread?

I'm not trying to claim that "I'm Holier than thou", and I don't doubt that there are some problems with the newest version of CPU-Z.
It wouldn't really be anything new, now would it?

That being said, here is a WIKI definition of Valid:

In common usage, validation is the process of checking if something satisfies a certain criterion. Examples would include checking if a statement is true (validity), if an appliance works as intended, if a computer system is secure, or if computer data are compliant with an open standard. Validation implies one is able to document that a solution or process is correct or is suited for its intended use.

I seriously doubt 4.8Ghz will meet that criteria on anything less than extreme cold, and certainly not on Ambient Air or Water....

1.53 was giving me problems when i was trying last week, it was not validating, showing wrong speeds, i would submit one score & it would output another, etc... i will also be waiting for an update i guess.

daveburt maybe you missed it but it wasnt validating one persons laptop @ 100% stock so i dont think its fair blame it on the people trying to validate high clocks

[MaRtIe]

Daveburt714, the current version doesnt validate my CPU at stock, or any of my overclocks.

i Emailed CPU-Z earlier today reguarding this, i just had an email back from Franck Delattre, saying there is infact a Fault with 1.53 and K10 processor's. He has been looking into it today and i just tested out a fix and its validated my cpu and i think hes releasing it.

So sit tight guys!

[MaRtIe]

Looks like he has released the fix (1.53.1)

[beta]

where can we find it? the cpu-z homepage still has the old version..

My bad beta, i thought it was released. i must not have copyed over the version he emailed me.

[MaRtIe]

Here is the link to the fix from Franck.

thanks for the link man!

figured as much, Franck is the man and usually way ahead of the game

new version of CPUz (1.53.1) doesn't help at all. Still there are problems with high frequences
