Default Hwbot and unlocked cores

Just finishing up my dual core single GPU runs, going to hit up dual GPU next, but I was wondering what i should do about running my 550 with 4 cores?

Do i just post it like normal but change X2 to X4?

I do not want to go violating terms etc.


Oh one more question.

Was thinking about installing AMD fusion. But reading terms last night it is confusing. Tweaking is allowed but software is not. Since hte software is just disabling things in windows... that make it okay?

Thanks

For the GPU benchmarks, cpu catagory doesn't yield points. You should label the cpu portion of the benchmark as the make/model of your cpu. The x2,x3,x4 indicates the amount of cpu sockets being run on the motherboard.

Use the correct cpu brand, name, model. Indicate in the notes or discription area if u want, the number of cores being used, or better yet, spam that description area with www.overclockaholics.com as if you make it in the top 20, it'll be listed on people rankings page at their forums.

Regarding the Fusion software, I haven't seen anything regarding it but if it only disables other programs in windows and does not directly alter, hack, change code within the benchmark, it should be o.k.
