How do you score a chip that hasn't been built yet?

Taτsu@TatsuEcosystem

How do you score a chip that hasn't been built yet? On @ChipForge, every design is compiled, built, timed, simulated cycle by cycle, and checked answer by answer. Independent validators then rerun the same tests. Speed isn't claimed. It's counted.
