For pcmark 7 will lga 1151v1 and v2 count as one or two different socket?

October 31, 2020 at 10:25:58 AM UTC

CC2020, HWBOT x265 Benchmark-4k, Use 1,3,5,7 processor core(s) in total. I think there is an error

Is downcore allowed then? Or is it only unlock cores? Cause like no am3 cpu die has more than 6 cores... 

November 1, 2020 at 8:52:12 AM UTC

To achieve 7 cores in this stage it must be the only option...

So assuming this goes for the other subs too. Meaning you want to downcore *lake or zen 2 for optimal scores on all 4 subs

November 1, 2020 at 9:19:57 AM UTC

Also is downcore allowed to get core counts for ycruncher? 

November 1, 2020 at 9:29:15 AM UTC

nope, only for the 7core score...

"A VALID Futuremark verification link is required registered on your HWBot name"

How strictly is this enforced?  I think my Futuremark name might be slightly different than my HWBot name (NiobiumOC or something), is that okay?

Also my 2c for quadros in pr is they shouldn't be allowed, but I did vote yes cause it'll be hilarious to see how pissed people are if it's allowed and someone posts monster score on one

I do not think scores will even be better than a cold 2080ti. Probably best to just leave them as banned to make it fair for everyone 

November 2, 2020 at 10:16:01 PM UTC

So how ridiculous did this turn out. Some vote yes to create a stirr... Well you lot just ended any future use of a poll A nice round of applause...  My turn now... Will reconfigure tomorrow 

November 2, 2020 at 10:26:21 PM UTC

I don't really care if they're allowed I don't think it will make an impact, but they probably shouldn't be allowed just the same cause people don't like quadros in most stages.

Why not create different tiers and make overclocking the comp, as an example there are those that only have a 570 and can't compete at all with a 2080ti or 3090 so then creating specific tiers like 570, 580 etc.

That's just normal hwbot, idk but having 500+ stages in country cup is a maybe not the best idea. There are however cheap stages so everyone can participate 

November 3, 2020 at 11:05:40 PM UTC

In the GTX400 stage, is it possible to for example sub 3 x GTX480 as one score and 2 x GTX480 as another and have both be counted towards the overall score? Or is it one score per SKU?

November 3, 2020 at 11:07:53 PM UTC

one score for 480 SKU, 470,460,450 whatever makes you tick.

November 4, 2020 at 9:31:25 AM UTC

3DMark - Sky Diver (GPU) - 4 scores: gpu score or total score??

November 4, 2020 at 1:21:02 PM UTC

GPU score only counts , but score needs to be VALID at FM , so you need to run it fully

November 5, 2020 at 5:11:51 PM UTC

Reminder that crosshair 8 dark hero launched after the comp, want to make sure nobody subs and has to rebench on different board. Posting here and on Discord to make sure everyone sees it, don't think it will be a problem but will suck if someone does a sick 3000 series sub on the new board for country cup and can't use it.

Hello my friends - nice to "see" you all again! Question about Stage 12 MathBenchmark... are MP server sockets allowed as long as they use desktop DDR2?

November 7, 2020 at 3:08:24 PM UTC

if you pop in one single processor yes

November 7, 2020 at 3:14:19 PM UTC

Reminder that basically all s771 boards use fbdimm which is not ddr2, so would need to be like socket F or something 

November 7, 2020 at 3:14:49 PM UTC

Yes, Socket F is what I had in mind. Thanks!

 

edit - oh, and one more question, sorry - for the purpose of this stage, do AM2 and AM2+ count as 2 sockets?

November 7, 2020 at 3:33:29 PM UTC

yes, unless I misconfigured

Another question. If i submit 4 scores with different hardware does it counts ? For example the same motherboard but 4 different cpu's ?

November 8, 2020 at 2:12:52 PM UTC

In the Memory Frequency competition, is it possible to send more than one result for different memory types? For example, I have a result for DDR1 and I posted it earlier, now I added the result for DDR3 and the result for DDR1 has disappeared. Is this a bug or is this competition only allowed 1 user = 1 result?

November 8, 2020 at 2:47:16 PM UTC

1 user : 1 result per stage...

November 9, 2020 at 2:22:28 AM UTC

do you mind changing my score on this submission to the gpu score (5329) and not the overall score of 6k? I forgot it was gpu score only

Is Ryzen PRO allowed? My laptop happens to have a Ryzen PRO APU in it, I've already subbed it for the Sky Diver stage:

https://hwbot.org/submission/4593865

But would be good to know if this is considered workstation hardware. I'd think not but better to clear up the ambiguity early on as I'm sure I won't be the only one thinking of subbing Ryzen PRO.

I think normal win 10 rules apply, so Skylake and newer can run win 10, otherwise has to be benchmate, x265, or 3dmark/PCMark with valid link

Depending on the benchmark like Yosi mentioned, Study the rules per benchmark , if unsure ask first before benching.

There's no software that I would know off besides XTU that would give this error while submitting. If you want you can pass me the screenshot and FM link and I can try to sub it for you

Small update on the Unigine stage:

thx to user Gt403cyl it became apparent that Unigine's website does not support multiple GPU configurations. 

This means if you submit the score to their website the verification link afterwards will not work (404 error)

Therefore we will remove the verification link for this competition. The request was forwarded that their leaderboard would support multiple GPU configurations in the future.

If you found the glitches that caused the need for update you'd understand, pretty sure will need version 1.3 as there's a MAJOR flaw that wasn't patched in 1.2. Waiting on dev response but they reply quickly so perhaps it will be fixed.

November 17, 2020 at 8:13:10 AM UTC

I mean, if we don't know very well how it runs or if it's bugged and so on, we don't need it for a big comp like this ?

November 17, 2020 at 8:32:52 AM UTC

I personally think knowing how it calculates a score and knowing how the calculations are done would be great as well.

 

Patch notes would be icing on the top

November 17, 2020 at 9:44:46 AM UTC

I think that there need to be a time to mature/quarantine new hardware and new benchmarks before they are used in competitions/point giving challenges. like 2-3 months even if scores are posted on the bot.

For hardware.

Based on that some new ryzens have even been noticed to break even CPUz with wrong reporting.

Thus any new hardware need to be going through informal tests by users and experts on a number of benchers before they are confirmed. To for example update benchmate or other envelope.

For benchmarks.

Based on that its not fair to have updates in the middle of competition to have to re-run scores based on issues found.

Meanwhile cudos to the developers who keep correcting the issues found and for the guys who can actually find such issues ?

Mathbench was in beta for a long time, it was requested to be used.

Now some glitches were found with older hardware & affinity and directly fixed by the dev team. 
Aren't we slightly overreacting?  Like has your country already 4 LN2'ed scores done? 

With the development team immediately reacting/fixing I think this competition is ideal to get stuff sorted.

November 17, 2020 at 4:26:24 PM UTC

It has been configured by CPU socket, so if its an AM3 cpu it will count as an AM3 , unless there's some weird bug in the code (don't be surprised), other possible selection was mobo socket.

Germany not sure about Math Bench Stage.

AMD DDR2 optimal using is a AM2 Board + AM3 CPU and AM2+ Board + AM3 CPU for two Scores? Or has the CPU to be AM2 and AM2+ also Board?

Optimal list is something like 1090t, qx9650, x5470, and ??? 

Og phenom could be used but they kinda suck so may lose to qx9300 or socket F

imo it could be used in an other comp, not a big one like CC or TC, but, I repeat, just my opinion

btw no problem, will improve it

Stage 10 hyper pi 32 m

 

Is this per cpu socket?

 

Are we allowed to disable cores and hyperthreading?

 

Thanks in advance

Rules say cannot disable core/ht, and is not cpu socket ranking

3090 KP launched after Nov 1 and is banned correct? Want to make sure it gets confirmed publicly to save people time for PR, more of a reminder than a question tbh

nope, the verification link needs to be VALID, so no LOD or other optimisations allowed as it wil not be valid at Futuremarkwebsite

What's the percentage of deviation from validation to screenshot on mem frequency Alby?

And is SPD tab required for screenshot?

November 26, 2020 at 6:46:46 AM UTC

we take 3% in general Scotty, CPUZ valid counts

No SPD tab required, but has to be readable in the CPUZ validation link

November 26, 2020 at 2:38:39 PM UTC

So, usual rules then. Thanks Alby, just wanted to check.  :)

@Leeghoofdthe Time Spy stage is currently a mess, in the design thread it was mentioned that Titans and all RTX cards would be banned but as configured, some RTX Super cards have been missed and some older Titans are allowed, e.g. RTX 2060 Super and Titan Xp. Can you close the gaps please?

November 29, 2020 at 11:58:02 PM UTC

I looked how they scored and they were in the score range of a 1080Ti around 10-11K... so they were not left out by oversight.

November 30, 2020 at 12:00:16 AM UTC

Hyperpi allows CPUs from the same socket, is that intentional? e.g. can sub something like 10900K + 9900KS + 9900KF + 9900K

November 30, 2020 at 12:02:16 AM UTC

yes HyperPi its defined by CPU type, not Socket type. Just ensure you run instances equal to either HT or physical cores (non HT CPUs)

  • CPU ranking type

Exactly...US ain't doing bad...with luck US has a bunch of great scores saved as well. I really hope there is a massive country effort where all good OC'rs pull together and make shit happen.

 

I know CC the last few years down here is more a social gathering then an OC'n event. So please bring the joy of a comeback victory worthy.

Is there a possibility to add rule like "No cores or HT disabling allowed" to HyperPi stage? Currently it just says "HyperPi Instances = processor/HT cores (max is 16 instances)", logically it's not clear that you may not disable cores or HT, it just says bench instances must be equal to core/HT number. Personally made this mistake, adding clarification probably will save time/effort for others :D

Why wouldn't it be? It is Ddr2 with what ever CPU you want.

Score averaging in the 4K stage is screwed, e.g. USA has a full set of subs averaging out to about 7 FPS but the stage shows 1.08 fps (I can't believe I'm helping mortal enemies ?)

Its screwing everyone equally so not so bad a thing to want fixed lol, that is kinda an odd average though. Perhaps it's doing per core score but that doesn't seem to math out right either. 

December 7, 2020 at 7:04:48 AM UTC

Set it average hardware iso per effective core 

December 7, 2020 at 7:09:50 AM UTC

Didn't even know that there was an option to rank by "thread count", in old ranking 9700k would be op I think 

December 11, 2020 at 12:42:03 AM UTC

hyper pi 32m is calculated per core not total time?

 

skydiver is overall score or graphics score? subs are half and half lol

December 11, 2020 at 5:44:17 AM UTC

Crazy idea but are any tiebreaking mechanisms intended? Or are you happy with a shared win in that case?

The hyperpi score that the bench spits out is an average of the times. Bench launches an instance of superpi on each thread. 

Skydiver should be graphics score

Okay to sub Sky Diver without valid veri link? Using latest version 3dmark and SI but still giving me graphics card not recognized after uploading score on 3dmark.com

4650G if that helps any. Can PM screen and link to verification if needed

Did you reach out to fm? 

December 15, 2020 at 8:14:51 AM UTC

superpatodonaldo`s 3DMark - Sky Diver (GPU) score: 6400 marks with a Radeon R7 Graphics (Spectre, 512 Shaders) (hwbot.org)

when I subbed it I was be able to see the fm link...now it seems to be hidden? and also I have issue to graphic detection

but notify my cpu has 2 core at low freq, so I benched just 2 instead of 4

December 15, 2020 at 10:36:06 AM UTC

Ill add it to the stage rules that only graphics driver not approved is acceptable. 

mail the FM screenshots to me plz I'll add them to the sub

@superpatodonaldo, nope still hidden, let's do the above

UL/FM is actually pretty quick at adding hardware (at least in my experience with sample size of 1). I think it took them about 1.5 days before they added the i7-5775R, Pentium G5500, and Quadro P1000 to their database after submitting a support ticket.

Hey,

I've submitted a TimeSpy Score and an PCMark7 Score, but only TimeSpy rated.. the PCMark7 ist not rated (did two Benches and both submissions are not rated).
Did i something wrong or just a bug? If everything is ok, can it be scored?

The ranking is by socket. Bullshooter already made an AM4 result which is better than yours.
