AMD users are screwed from 2D boints in anything but CPUz and PCMark. (Pcmark only if they have SSDs and multiple cards)
Want to level the field so only the best "clockers" get top spot? You can keep points from any ONE benchmark per application
In other words 100 CPUz screenies of 100 chips, you can keep points for one. (will be done automatically, whatever one is best)
The argument that the guy that benches every cheap piece of hardware should not get to keep his points is silly. After all Vince benches how much stuff? Differnce is he is doing it while the stuff is new and expensive. His points are not so much a reflection of skill, as they are, a reflection of "look what I got"
Not saying he is not skilled, but a kid that can hack a dell laptop BIOS OC it till it burns up and only get s 2 points for it? I have more respect for that kid then the guy that is being handed stuff for free and being lauded for it.
But I have a different perspective, I am on the bottom looking up not the other way around.

Show me that kid cuz I spent months trying to do that to no avail.
Also, don't you guys start making up shit in your heads that I'm saying Hardware Masters shouldnt get boints, cuz thats not what I'm saying at all.
Now, if you wanna play it legit. There should be a baseline for all hardware at the bot and any score or clock improvement from that baseline should yield boints. Not a stock run on a Non-Overclockable Dell laptop getting boints for free. Get the baseline and if someone tweaks the os install or settings and improves from the baseline then give jerky some boints.
But in the Global vs Hardware scenario, add no-cap to hardware, it will be an eventuality that the hardware guy spoons the global guy in boints. Lemme tell you, two guys spooning isn't a good thing. Unless the Hardware guy is actually
which would make the Global guy
Mancer, you and I both know that Vince didn't start off as some spoiled brat with uber special ES Cherry high end hardware. He's got knowledge, skill, and has put in the un-godly time and effort required to be at the top of the ranks. If you're gonna be a hater, hate properly like me, hate because its your god given right to hate on the top dogs.
