scr4wl Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Also, does throttling effect the results at all? I noticed when taking screens that my CPU is throttling down to 1.6GHz which is something it's hasn't done since I first overclocked it. The benchmark should put your CPU under load which will bring the clocks back up so the throttle shouldn't have an effect. If it does it would be a small one. Your scores might be reported though, because the frequency doesn't reflect the overclock, I'm not sure how that works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably add another week or two to the deadline for this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scr4wl Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 Make sure you still submit to HWBot, even if the scores are odd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedway Posted March 2, 2012 Posted March 2, 2012 So I am realizing that the drivers I am using aren't approved by FutureMark yet :mad: So in order to get a valid score, I would have to uninstall my current drivers that allow me to use CF in Skyrim, install older drivers that are approved, but don't work for CF in Skyrim, run Vantage, then uninstall those "approved drivers", and reinstall the new drivers again Looks like unless I am extremely bored and want to change drivers that are running solid right now, I will not be helping the OCC HWBOT team with Vantage scores until after they approve the drivers that work with Skyrim and CF Just can't risk anything with AMD drivers when I have it working right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 Then can we take our scores, divide them by the money we each spent respectively, and see who wins the ALL-Important Price-to-Performance ratio money spent or retail value? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
