is not the Radeon RX Vega M GH a discrete GPU?

I made this argument to leeg before the competition started - it is on the same package as the CPU, but is connected with PCIe 3.0 x8 (over EMIB rather than the motherboard but still) and exclusively uses its own HBM rather than system memory.  The only IGP-like thing about it is the shared power management.

Apparently it's allowed, and we get a lot of people with different hardware on /r/overclocking so we easily found a user willing to bench it competitively.  As a result, however hard you OC no-one without Vega M will be able to touch our score for that stage.  I think Skull Canyon NUCs start at $700 for the OC locked Vega M GL version (DDR4 SODIMMs sold separately), have fun.

Alternatively since afaik no-one has gone out and bought one for the comp I'd still totally support them being retroactively banned.  We have to take advantage, if we don't someone else will, but it's not how I wanna win stages.

I know this may sound dumb but someone will always try to read between the lines. The Y-Cruncher bench has the CPU listed as "Use 4 Cores in Total". This would imply that you can use an 8 Core CPU BUT disable 4 of the Cores.

Don't read between the lines then.

I don't see that implication at all.

Good going, I hope OCN can find a couple of users with the RX vega M. :thumb:.

It is listed at HWBOT as integrated GPU... so hence why it is allowed for this stage... but again Team Cup is not won in one stage

For the below, disabling cores has never been allowed, in contradiction to unlocking cores

Windows 10 Not allowed?? I thought that had been fixed.

depends on the benchmark and CPU used

What is going on with the links to the 3dmark Vantage submissions that have already been made by teams? I try to view submissions by clicking the overall score and it only says "There are no submissions." So far it seems to be the case for any team that has all 3 submissions. The permalink brings up a Bitly "page not found" message. Is it only me or is this the case for others trying to view it as well?

thx for the report, @richba5tard

Not sure why but TeamMLGs 3rd R15 run has not been taken into account, still says we need one more score even though the sub is listed at the bottom of the page!? 

Richbastard is investigating the CB bug, vantage is solved

SC4: DDR4 - PCMark 7: Can I use 6950X cpu? Or 5820K? Sorry if I am asking again but so far I do not seen that kind of question or answer.

Any consumer DDR4 platform should be fine

Thanks!

Any update on cinebench per core rankings?

@Leeghoofd@richba5tard Any progress on this? I know for example that my 6.36 ghz 7350k r15 results of 711 (355.5 per core) is not being applied to our score while a 5.2 ghz 6700k r15 result of 1176 (294 per core) is. Hopefully this ranking is sorted by end of comp.

i have the same issue for team MLG on my 7350 score

I got the heads up by Frederik that some of your teammates also benched similar CPUs, overruling your sub,

Plz email Frederik for an exact detailed description who submitted what at frederik@hwbot.org

thats not the issue Leeg. we are two members who have submitted 7740 x results. meanwhile i have also submitted a 7350 score that per core is higher than all. but as the overall summary score is higher the per core score is not considered.

I have sent message to fredrik

if u haven t tried: delete your 2 scores and resub the highest 7350, by retyping all the info. Do not use a previous sub info, which can m,ess up things around

I have deleted my scores. I cant delete another members scores and even if i resub my 7350 now it will not be shown, no score recount happens as the issue persist on the competition machine
