Questionable results impacting the 'above / below average for this GPU message.'

[mvz]

I recently tried to bench my 3080ti with my G2, which according to the leaderboard was perfectly normal, and in between a lot of 3090's and 3080ti's.. but at the top of the leaderboard are questionable scores, like double that of a regular 3090.. but set by someone on a 7th gen i7 with a 2080 super.. this means that all 3090 and 3080ti testers from hereon out get the message that their setup is below average.

What is done to ward off leaderboard cheaters? or are there other metrics at play that we're not seeing?

Hi! A few outliers submitted by people will not negatively affect the "above / below average for this GPU message.". So no, it won't mean that any 3090 and 3080ti tester will see any incorrect message.

it gave me the message that it was below average, while literally the only other 3080ti above me in the screenshot has a score nearly double that of mine, on a way older cpu. So where then does it get the information about this from?
