I can't find an answer anywhere... Also 8774(*) seems freaking low for 3600 multi core? Actually lower than 1700x... (although tbf i have steam and rainmeter running) PS: single core result doesn't have a "*"... what gives? At least I beat the pesky 1700x (1170)! PS: ok, turning off steam / rainmeter let me beat the 1700x, but it still says "*" so apparently something wrong?

The score is normal. 3600x typically exceeds 9k. I’m 90% confident the asterisk indicates a minimum test duration is off. You can test enabling and disabling it to see if it removes the asterisk.

My prediction is accurate based on the results. The test was conducted by @Mark Kaine without a required minimum runtime in multi-core mode, and the score displayed an asterisk. After adjusting the test to enforce a 10-minute minimum duration (Test Throttling), the score changed and no asterisk appeared, confirming the theory. Updated April 21, 2021 by The_russian

Sure, disabling most background features (though GFE and Corsair links are a bit tricky) helped me finish the 1700x. Maybe I'll give it another shot. The odd part is it doesn't show the * symbol on single-core systems, just multi-core—still to be seen.

Likely due to the lengthy single-core evaluation, the required test time surpasses the allowed limit.

Sure, I ran a 10-minute multi-test and everything made sense! So the mystery was solved.
