Great job, Andrei! Result! MTK might finally see the light and stop this stupid software-juicing. Especially as they now seem to finally have SoCs that won't need to cheat to perform well (D1000).
I fear UL has overplayed its hand. MediaTek doesn't need them to sell to its customers. But I guess we'll soon see who has the real power in their relationship.

They don't have a choice. If they hadn't delisted MediaTekCheat they would have lost all credibility which arguably their most valuable asset.mode_13h - Saturday, April 25, 2020 - link
Agreed. UL's reputation extends well beyond this benchmark and is something worth protecting.Koenig168 - Sunday, April 19, 2020 - link
Well done, AT & UL. Good to know that I can continue to trust my 3DMark suite.Sivar - Monday, April 20, 2020 - link
Good for UL, doing the right thing for the integrity of the industry (and their reputation).Also, this is not the first time this has happened. Never forget:
