    Now functions more like Blender's BMW test rather than finishing in 4 seconds on a 36 thread CPU.
    And no longer can greedy OEM's hide behind super high CB runs before their throttle systems drop the scores.

    This can now be used as a better stress test without having to resort to prime95 small FFT (AVX disabled). Although people should still check out prime95 v29 build 9.

    Going to the dead husk of OCN and finding the thread, it still gives a 500 Gateway error.

    I just double checked it and it opens for me.
    It does *NOT* open on windows Edge. 500 error.
    opens on Chrome.
    Maybe OCN got attacked by the BGA Bear, eh? @Papusan
    Can you get on the main page directly?
    Go to benchmarking ->benchmarking and software discussion and it should be up there.

    Ok, um.....that actual thread is error 500'ing on Edge but not on Chrome.....

    What sites do you visit besides here then?
    Hard OCP is good but has such low traffic. Linustechtips is filled with um...random young kids and God knows who else. Neogaf is for videogames...

    Nice score @aaronne, I can only muster 331 from my X1E. It does run at the 3.9GHz all core the whole run though.
