There is some controversy over "fixing" the results in the past, as well as weird personal behavior from the owners: https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/

There is some controversy over "fixing" the results in the past, as well as weird personal behavior from the owners: https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/ykx4yd/i_knew_userbenchmark_was_bad_but_i_didnt_known_it/ https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/ykx4yd/i_knew_use...
But bottom line is you want a benchmark that represents your actual application rather than some unrelated synthetic test. I do like geekbench more because its a big bucket of "real" applications without the associated controversy, but its still less than ideal.
- SpecialistK 3y agoAFAIK, Passmark and UserBenchmark are not the same thing. UBM is the one that's so bad it's a meme.
- brucethemoose2 3y agoAh I think you are right, but still: https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/fhzn0e/passmark_follows_userbenchmark_and_adjusts/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/fhzn0e/passmark_follow... I remember controversy from both, but theres a lot of noise when I try to go back and look outside of Reddit (which is not always the most reliable source).
