HWBot August Event

I'm definitely staying out of this one. I just can't compete with the big guns that have the expensive hardware and extreme cooling.

HWBOT has a habit of almost never updating my point totals anyway, so even if I gained something crazy like 300pts in one month it probably wouldn't register any of them. Seriously, I made like 10-15 submissions in a row and it didn't add the points for any of them.

Finally after I made a submission that had global points involved it finally registered in the system that there was a change in my points tally and it recalculated to the proper amount. By that time though I was 20+ points higher than what it had been displaying.

Here we go, I'm in!

ShrimpBrime · Aug 1, 2013

I haven't benched much in a while, this looks like fun.

Does it matter if I'm not on team OCF here?? If not, I'm in too!

I'm in!

Bobnova · Aug 2, 2013

Here's me:

Not sure I'm going to have time to bench anything this month, so I may manage to end up with a negative score

We'll see though.

EDIT:
For those feeling overwhelmed, know this: The more points/submissions we start with, the harder it is to get more.
I won't be extreme cooling this month, so y'all definitely have a chance at beating me at least.

I forgot to make screenshot before I posted some results yesterday ... ( 5 HW, 5 GL, 15 TPP or something ... not really important ).

I will add something this month but I doubt it will be long list. Replacing old scores on the same hardware is not adding much points and I don't have anything new except one little notebook ( most results posted already ).
I wouldn't be surprised if I end up with - points at the end of this month

( all who have more globals know what I mean ).

94 ( Pro League , huh )

Too late for last month's awesome Cinebench event, but guess who is back in business for this one? :attn:

Total points are recalculated once a day. Sometimes if for some reason site isn't working it's not recalculating. Sometimes you have to manually recalculate all results or they won't change at all.
Also if you are looking at top 5 team members list then not all points are on that list and it's correct only 1st day of the month ( or just before ). Sometimes when you post something like 30 globals/hardware points and add slightly better score then on total list you have 2x more points. It never been perfect.

Allmost all 2nd places because of CPU. Just can't beat i7 with low power i3 in 3D even though gfx card has 150MHz higher core and memory clocks.

total +36.2 points

Nice

36 points already :thup:

Thanks, soon moving to pcmarks. Results made on Lenovo M490s notebook , it's not even listed on Lenovo site ... but was cheap ( ~$350 ) and is pretty good

I probably won't find a way to overclock cpu in this "beast" but at least gpu is overclocking good.
Btw. anyone knows how to dump GF700m series BIOS and edit it ? GPU-Z isn't working.

Yeah, but I clicked the "recalculate all submissions" button a lot. It still didn't add in the rest of my points from new submissions. This was over a period of about a month where I made new submissions but the points weren't added to my total.

Woomack overclocking a notebook, I love it! :attn:

EarthDog · Aug 2, 2013

Lol, "notebook". I see that term and think 'Trapper Keeper', not laptops.

Probably shows my age there.. haha!

Woomack · Aug 3, 2013

EarthDog · Aug 3, 2013

So, that 24 points in procup, If someone beats you, don't you lose points?

In fact, doesnt all of these entries have the potential to lose value through the competition window?

Bobnova · Aug 3, 2013

Yup, all of 'em do. I was under the impression that's why we're posting our starting points.

EarthDog · Aug 4, 2013

Ahh, just makes me wonder why we are posting interm points when they have a good chance not to be the same.. kk, I'm not (too) crazy.

keny · Aug 4, 2013

You never know you could even gain some boints without even benching, if you're lucky enough to have a load of people submit worse scores than your previous subs :attn:
