Forum Wars - Winter 2010 - How to properly submit scores

[The Smith]

You must submit your score here.

 

Instructions:

 

For 3DMark03 and 3DMark05, you have to sign up for an ORB account and download these:

 

-->3DMark03

-->3DMark05

 

When you will complete one of these benchmarks, click on the "Submit Result Online" button. Then, login in your ORB account, if it's not already done. Once you've done that, you can close the web browser and continue benching. The result has been saved. When you're ready to publish your results, come back onto ORB and login. In the left menu, click on "My Results". Next, navigate to your result and click on "Details". Edit the project name in order to replace the "Untitled" by your forum username(eg. The Smith - OCC). Once you've done that, you can click on "Make Public". You will then get a comparison URL, which you will post in the scoring thread later. You can save it in a text document for quick reference.

 

For Geekbench, you also need to create an account for the online result browser. Use your username(eg. The Smith - OCC) so we can recognize you. Download the benchmark over there, version 2.1.2 or newer:

 

-->Geekbench (32-bit version only. 64-bit NOT allowed)

 

Once you've installed the benchmark and ran it, you will get your score. Click on "Submit". Then, if it's not already done, login with your account. You will now see the same results you got right after running the benchmark. Copy the URL in the address bar of your result browser in a text document for future reference. This is the one you will submit later.

 

For SuperPI 1M and wPrime 32M, a screenshot is required instead of a comparison link. You can get the benchmarks over there:

 

-->SuperPI (Be sure to use the version 1.5.)

-->wPrime 1.55

 

For wPrime, make sure you go into the preferences and set the right number of threads. When you complete a run, you just have to open a CPU-z tab showing the CPU and another one showing the RAM. Then, hover your mouse over the clock at the right of your taskbar to show a timestamp. Hit "PrtScr" (Print Screen) on your keyboard and open Paint. Click on Edit and then on Paste. Save that as a jpeg. This is what you will post instead of a comparison link.

 

Once you've done all of that, make a post in the scoring thread. It should contain the comparison links and the screenshot(s).

 

Moreover, you can determine your score with the calculator.

 

Example post:

 

Raymo - TRP - A Class -

CPU - i7 965

RAM - Gskill Perfect Storm 2000 DDR3

GPU - (x4) (Sapphire "HD4870x2 (x2)")
