please delete that sisoft score, it put me in 3rd

[Sparky]

I can't figure out how those people got such high scores with the same CPU or graphics card as mine. How did they reach those clocks??
I can't get my CPU above about 3.01GHz, no matter what voltages or memory timings I use. I have to set it in the bios because clockgen won't work (has the wrong clock settings shown and freezes the system every time).

Not all processors are created equal xtreme cooling helps combat this a bit but in the end, it isn't a level playing field.

alright, finally got to 50 points man, Super Pi 32m on a 600Mhz P3 is painful lol.

Does anyone know how to get PCMark04 to run on a Conroe over 2.3Ghz? I keep getting an error in Grammar Check, and from looking it up it seems that other people have gotten the same error. But I looked at the top scores and people have gotten it to run at 3-4GHz, so it must be possible.

*edit* nm, just saw the post over in the benchmark section.

[Sparky]

hey at least Spi 32m ran on yours, for some reason it keeps crashing on my systems Every time on each one it gets to the 3rd or 4th iteration and then "SuperPI mod has encountered an error and needs to close, we are sorry for any inconvenience." AHH you bet it is! What bugs me is it ran fine once on the one system, but the super pi window was off the bottom of the screen so you couldn't see the final time and I couldn't move it up without clicking OK and making it disappear

[Raiden Zero]

just switched to xtremesystems team =).
i already submitted 2X points before i joined xs team. so i need to add another 50 points?

btw: there are is one thing i realy dont understand.
7th celeron lga775 352->14.4 points
2nd p-m 750 -> 1.6points

AFAIK you need 50 points, but I could be wrong. You get more points for the Celeron because more rsults were added. It is a more popular CPU than the 750 (at the benches you ran) so you get more points, as it is harder to get to the top spots

No idea if this is the problem, but I found that my P3 600Mhz is no longer stable at stock voltage. I had to increase the vCore to 2.1v, because it was crashing in windows a lot.

I found the problem, they each only had 256MB of RAM, apparently it wasn't enough room for all that pi Put an extra 256MB in each system and they ran it fine. And the duron 1.2GHz was more than 20 minutes faster than the celeron 2.5GHz I knew celerons were pathetic but didn't know they were that bad!

[jimwah]

This explains why Spi32M crashed on my mobile P4 too, that puzzled me for a while 'cos I know its stable. Got about ~60 points here now, I'm trying to push my GPU's at the moment which is proving much tougher than benching obscure CPU's for me

[massman]

So all I have to do is join the XS team and earn 50 points? Sweet.

DON't use scores of Shamino to upload in our database, use your own skills.

Your scores are now blocked.

If you have plans to upload more results to our database, know that I'll check them out myself and make sure they're not fake. If you try to post other person's results, I will ban you.

@ Fugger: Sorry, I posted this in the contest thread.

That is a problem with SisoftSandra that is why they don’t give points for it, re run it with an older version and you will get higher results although it is not counted

[sushrukh]

Everytime, I submit my results,that shows for some time % then I can't find any existence of my scores.I think as I'm a not a well known overclocker,my results got deleted.I've scored 239 point last time for XS but today I saw that my scores are nowhere on the charts.This is not done.Where my benchmark results are disappearing to ? I had to post the results 3 times & every time they r disappearing after some time.Please help me.I really want to get that OCZ memory but it seems that they won't allow me to do so.

Looking to your account, but can't find any scores. Normally they should have been blocked and still viewable, but apparently they're not.

Can you please upload your scores again and I'll have a look at it.

[Sparky]

OOooo this PC at work has a gforce 2 GTS in it, time to load up some old benches maybe...
kind of sad that I can get points out of all this old hardware but barely anything from my main rig Too many people out there have opty 165's darnit!

Owkey, something strange here:

SPEEDYNSTEADY2 and SRKFC2K5 Have the exact same 3dmark01 entry:

http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=576897
http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=576522

All scores of both users are blocked.

Currently looking into sushrukh's results ...

I have looked into your results and I must say ... I'm amazed. Faking screenshots in one thing, complaning when they're block ...

First result:
Bad copy-paste of different pictures (you can't put the resultscreen behind the 3dmark01 main program).

Second result:
Very good cpu I must say ... and 97k with a mx440 ??? Impressive

Third result:
Aweful photoshop ... there's something missing on the right side of the final score screen.

Fourth result:
Great CPU, you have the fastest 3d benchable x6800 in the world, leaving others 300MHz. behind. By the way, there's something with on the background of the final score.

Fifth result:
You have benched with Windows Vista, but 3dmark says XP ...

So, to make sure you got it ... you're banned.

[jmke]

ROFL @ sushrukh, complaining about this fake results:p

Now thats what I like! Someone who doesn't ":banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:foot" around..
BANG! Your BANNED!..I got to buy you a drink for that one!

that's some pretty funny stuff man ROFLMAO. but on another note i had my 2001 highest score w/ my QX6700 blocked and not sure why, i think for some reason the bot thinks it is the same processor as my 74K run with the X6800

Unblocked it, won't make a difference though. Both scores are 2x8800gtx, so highest score will count.

What are you saying man ?

1) They were not any fake screenshot.Yes, I did copy paste but from my own benchmark results.I've started benching my system from the Geforce 4 MX 440 days & I'm benching now with my Geforce 8800.
I did copy paste coz I had greater scores some times ago but when I've recently benched my system to submit results to the HWbot.org, I found that I had better results in the past with the same configuration.
So, i did copy paste from my previous benchmark to the new window so that I can submit better results than what I'm getting now.I may have done something wrong in copy pasting.That's why u've noticed that MX 440 but doing copy paste from my own result should not be a problem. Isn't is so ?




2. "you can't put the resultscreen behind the 3dmark01 main program"--- Now what does that mean ? My 3D Mark results are viewable but I didn't know that putting the results behind the 3D Mark main screen is not a valid option.I could not find any rules on both the sites.So, keeping the result window over the 3d Mark main screen is vaild ? Can I re submit my results obeying that rule ?


3.I have not benched with Windows Vista.That was only a Vista theme.I've just posted a link where u can get to know that it was only a Vista theme,not a real Vista.I think you know about the Vista Transformation Pack software.

First result: 3DMark itself doesn't allow you to put the results window (the one that contains your score) behind the main 3Dmark window. That had to have been photochopped (or MS painted) to look like that.

Second result: That could have been real, I don't think 3Dmark01 would know what a 8800gtx is, but I'm not sure.

Third result: Looking at the 3Dmark result window, something has been obviously chopped off.

Fourth result: The final score window has obviously been modified, why else would the stark white rectangles appear in it behind the score? Bad erase of the real score, perhaps?

Fifth result: Here I do agree with you, I have a vista-looking theme running on my XP rig as well. Mine looks nicer though

The fourth result in itself I think is enough to prove cheating and disqualification. Sorry, but we don't tolerate cheaters here
*EDIT* I see you edited your post, so here:

So, i did copy paste from my previous benchmark to the new window so that I can submit better results than what I'm getting now.Is this a crime ?

And give us one good reason why we should believe you got those scores previously? Those pics are chopped, the one has the score erased and rewritten, the one the GPU doesn't match up (though like I said, does 3dmark01 even recognize an 8800gtx at all so this one is uncertain). The scores you send in must be the ones that you get now, not a month ago, or a year ago. If you want to rerun benches and do system tweaks until you get the highest score you can, fine. But copy/pasting, no
