We'll gladly welcome you with open arms:thumb:

Simply select and download a benchmark of your choosing here (some are less time consuming): http://hwbot.org/benchmarks
Make all of your submissions here: http://hwbot.org/submit

To submit scores, you will need to have CPU-Z and GPU-Z installed.
The programs need to be opened and included in the screenshots that are submitted to HWBOT (example).
CPU-Z
GPU-Z

Once you enter your computer specs for your very first submission, your specs will be saved to make it easier to submit additional results.

May the addiction find you!

Thanks!

Good point is that I've just ordered Noctua C14S to maximize my cooling capacity..:D I'll definitely try R7 1700X 4Ghz+ram @3467Mhz...:D

Yes I've scored my first points with my cinebench R15 score..:)


I've tried to submit my RAM speed (3520Mhz on Ryzen is clearly a cool achievement)...but I was blocked as picture should be hosted on canardpc...
Do you have any clue how to submit scores on that?

I believe that you need to validate your CPUZ as the pictures are stored on CanardPC.

Added a few entries, although I gave up at Unigine Heaven - the HWbot implementation unfortunately seem to be lacking...

After quite a bit of headbutting it turns out that the files hardware-bots own tests produce can be too large for their homepage to receive if your monitor size is large (I even had an error with 1440p). That is because they contain a screenshot with apparently very lousy compression.
So if you get an upload error due to size but really like your results, try lowering your current resolution and save the validation file once more. Below 5 megabytes seems "safe" but some say 2.

It also turns out that if you use the wrong windows locale on these same tests they wont work. After I changed to UK it worked with the heaven benchmarks.

I have always wanted to try this so I'm on the team. Ryzen 1700 stock CB run to see if I was doing the submission right. I finally have 3200mhz on the ram with the lates bios for my mobo. SO, now to squeeze the cpu some. I had 3.8 stable on the last bios with no issues before the ram increase so I will start there.

Working with a B350 board and OK air cooling so may not get too crazy pushing it but will see what my budget R7 setup can do for the team.

So my cake and eat it too scenario isnt working out too well. I can get the 3200mhz ram OR the 3.8 OC on my CPU. Also, with this bios version I can only hit the cpu OC with Ryzen Master and not with the same settings in bios directly..go figure.

was hitting 1623 CB with 3.8 in bios under older version.. now 3.8 on CPU with Ryzen Master and only scoring 1563. boooo.

@MarcParis what settings are you using in bios for 3.8-3.9 on your 1700x?
