Sorry Ihatethedukes. Your previous scores were attained with an E8400 so I won't be adding the Vantage score of the Q6600. If you want to use your Q6600 score you'll have to run the other three benchmarks again with your quad core in the system.

Quote:

You can only submit scores for one system. The system must be of the same configuration for each of the benchmark runs, otherwise your score won't be added. For example, swapping a higher clocked dual core CPU for a quad core for one benchmark means that your score won't count.

Basically, this is because all benchmarks are supposed to be run on the same system in an effort to reflect overall 3DMark performance. Allowing members to swap and change components around completely negates the point of the Top 30 systems. If this was allowed, ncsa would never be removed from the top spot.

You can remove my scores from the spreadsheet. I no longer have the same hardware. It's only fair.

Just because you no longer own the hardware used to achieve certain scores, doesn't make your submissions invalid. This only applies to those who make submissions where they have changed over the CPU, or GPU's in different benchmarks. For example, it's easier to overclock dual core CPU's higher, which helps in 3DMark03 and 3DMark05, but 3DMark06 gets more benefit from lower clocked quad cores.
