hw bot sample error Engineering Sample

[btimofte]

HI all

I wanted to submit my XTU benchmark and i got this error:

Engineering sample or unreleased hardware

This submission was made with an Engineering Sample or unreleased hardware. Only you can see this page.

Insufficient data

Sorry, we do not have enough data collected for a Core i9 10850K yet. If you make a second analysis, we'll be able to draw the chart properly!

Can you help me ?

btimofte, Thank you for posting in the Intel® Communities Support.

In reference to this scenario, just to let you know, we can confirm that the Intel® Core™ i9-10850K Processor is supported by the Intel® Extreme Tuning Utility as you can see in the link below:

https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29183/Intel-Extreme-Tuning-Utility-Intel-XTU-

Now, the Engineering sample (ES) Processors are also known as qualification sample processors. They are pre-production processors Intel® loans to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), original device manufacturers (ODMs), and independent software vendors (ISVs) to be used in the product design cycle before product launch, they are not covered under Intel® warranty and are generally not supported by Intel®:

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000056190/processors.html

At this point what we suggest will be to gather the markings of the Intel® Processor and verify if, in fact, it is an (ES), you can always use the page below to check the warranty status of it, if you get the warranty expiration date it means it is not an (ES) Processor:

https://supporttickets.intel.com/warrantyinfo?lang=en-US

If the results show that it is an (ES) unit, then the next thing to do will be to get in contact directly with the place of purchase to report this scenario and to check with them if they can replace it, provide a refund, or any other option they might have available in this case.

Any questions, please let me know.

I have intel XTU 7.3.0.33

[Alberto_Sykes]

btimofte, Thank you very much for providing that information and the picture.

Just to let you know the BIOS of the board is directly related to the performance of the Intel® XTU application, by any chance do you know if the latest BIOS version is currently installed on your platform?

Please attach the SSU report as well.

Hello btimofte, I just received an update on this matter.

Just to confirm, are you using any other overclocking tool?

We can see that you have an eGPU installed, do you have the option to unplug it and try with Intel® graphics controller only?

Please make sure to follow the steps below to upload the score:

-Open the Intel® XTU. 

-Go to Benchmarking - Run Benchmark (with Intel® XTU Benchmark selected). 

-Wait for the Current Score to appear -> Click on Compare Online.  

-You will have an option to save the profile to use locally or upload to the HWBot website later

-A popup shows up showing that the data is transferred, and will get you to the browser with the submission.  

-Check the HWBot website, and follow the prompts to finish the submission:

http://%20https//hwbot.org/

We can see there are newer BIOS versions available on the OEM website, please try to update it to version 2103 which is the latest one:

https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-Components/Motherboards/All-series/PRIME-Z490-A/HelpDesk_BIOS/

In case that you are still having problems after following the above steps, try reinstalling the Intel® XTU:

I forgot to mention something . I dont know if its important or not : I changed 2 mainboards because i had blue screens and my Creative Sound Blaster Ae5-Plus was corrupting the sounds after a while(Gygabyte, Asus z390 chipsets and core i9-9900k) and i changed to my current mainboard z490-a , core i9 10850k) and i didnt reinstall windows . I just put the SSD with the old windows installation into the new mainboard and waited for windows to detect the new hardware at startup. Worked fine , except i had to reactivate my windows 10 when i changed the cpu(not the mainboards).

btimofte, Thank you very much for sharing that information.

It should not be a problem, but in this case, if you have the option, you can always get in contact directly with Microsoft to gather the instructions on how to install Windows* from scratch on your system and then test it to confirm if the issue is related to the OS, due to licensing it will be better to check directly with them, they might have other options to do this procedure as well:
