Windows 8 Benchmark Records No Longer Accepted At HWBOT - Benchmark Result Veracity Compromised

[TwsT]

An article on hwbot about the removal of windows 8 benchmarks for the time being on HWBot As they can apparently be compromised.


I'm sure 8 pack knows more about this than I do but still figured I'd leave it here for anyone interested

Rough translation:

Due to changes MS have made to Windows 8 to cater for portable devices, Windows 8 will give incorrect performance figures if the BCLK is changed from within the OS (at least on Intel systems).

Another nail in the Windows 8 coffin.
