DFI X38-T2R 2900XT 1GB @ QX9650 5.8G 3D06 Start to Test

[AndreYang]

This is my first time test 2900XT at Tek9 3.0 under LN2. I am hard to handle 3 pots together, so I only test 1100/1050 on 2900XT. And QX9650 under LN2 at Dragon F1.


Here is some pics for sharing.

I will push 2900XT to 1200 next time. Maybe it will be close to 30K for sure.

Thank you.

[Praz]

Nice Andre. 30k looks like a possibility.

[Gautam]

Very heavy clocking Andre. :clap: :slobber:

[MTP04]

WOW that is a strong setup.:clap: Nice pictures too btw.

[Atal]

wow!!!!!nice score!! are the 2900 xt's 1Gb versions?? would you expect a higher result with 2 3870's???

[AndreYang]

3870 need to mod caps. The max is 1100 if you didn't mod.

[ZoLKoRn]

nice score! Andre and i think you will a lot of busy on this benched if you playing alone :up:

Good job :clap: :clap: :clap:

[andre X_X]

29k is amazing Andre... :up:

[DMH]

Very nice maybe when 780i is out Vince can put the Ultras to work:D
5.8G 3DMARK06 it's XTREME:D

[jugeen]

nice photos Andre as always! Keep on OCing! GL 4 NU WRs! ;)

[n3wbi3]

Nice score buddy and really cold lol well done.

Were the cards volt modded, same with the mb modded at all?

Also i like the heat sinks on the card can u plz tell were u got them or brand cheers.

[hipro5]

WOWWWW.......NICE benching..... :D :up:

[Dynasty]

real nice work Andre......:clap:

its great too see you as an world class 3D bencher, keep up the good work
and push for 30K m8, you almost there dont give up! :yepp:

[dinos22]

awesome results

[giorgioprimo]

Finally you show your pearl ...... :clap: :clap:

[G H Z]

Big time benching power, well done Andre :toast:

[Zannema]

OMFG......love the pics and great bench:eek:, now break 30k:D

[NH|Delph1]

Wow, 5.8GHz 3D stable :bows:

So close to the record, don't stop now!

Anyway, :toast:

//Andreas

[blind_ripper]

good work andre ;)

[Paxi]

Congrats, very nice scores and i love the pics from your setup :)

[SIOUX]

Very nice 06 Andrew :toast:

[LardArse]

wow, thats hell impressive!
That cpu is nuts!

[Sampsa]

Great cpu and score + excellent pics! Nice work! If you can push R600s close to 1,2 GHz the score should be 30k without doubt.

[Oliver]

That is really impressive, and yes that cpu is a gem.

Founded together with vince?.

Keep pushing it.

[k|ngp|n]

Damn proud of you man! :up: :up:
Really awesome work Andre. 1200mhz+ should be easy on those gpu units if you feel like pushing the cards harder. I could do 1220mhz core all day 06 on just dry ice with a 2900xt(512). Mid to high 1200's on LN2. You will need that whole rig firing on all cylinders pretty soon... ;)

[K404]

*chants*

30-K 30-K 30-K 30-K 30-K!

:D

Keep pushing!, and congrats on what you've achieved so far!

[dpa]

to have control over 3 pots is hard as hell, I feel your pain! hehe..

GREAT benching there AndreYang, that score is VERY VERY good.. take Hipro down by running 1200Mhz on those 2900xt cards!

[AndreYang]

That is really impressive, and yes that cpu is a gem.

Keep pushing it.



Vince also has one the same limit CPU.;)

Cards mod Vcore. Mobo don't need any mod.

Cards' heat sink is kingpin's Tek9 3.0:D

[pumbertot]

man thats bloody awesome Andre, 30k you will hit for sure.:toast:

seeing andre pushing these cards so easy i cant wait to play with mine this weekend , 2900xt single :D .

andre push those card's and take down that 30k !!!

[EXPANDER]

Good clock :up:

[toddm27]

very impressive

Sounds really good :).

Keep pushing it.

DFI X38-T2R Motherboard super performance good.

[metro.cl]

Amazing Andre, you have all the best hardware now just go for the WR :)

:down: at futuremark those CPU tests are just plain stupid 5.8GHz Yorkfield just 4 Fps :slapass: :slapass:

[NightRaven]

wow thats good going man :)

excellent cpu i must say! keep it up!

[binormalkilla]

Simply amazing. Great job man.
May I ask what voltage you have on the 2900xt cores? I run 1.35V for water.

[AKHandyman]

Simply amazing ... Great photos and nice work ... I don't think I'll try that anytime soon ... should have a disclaimer saying ... "Overclocking done by professional ... Noobs should not try this at home!" :rofl:

[AndreYang]

2900XT 1.55V @ -100

[Fr3ak]

Very nice results Andre! :D

With a little tweaking, you can surely go for a WR or at least get pretty close to it.

[binormalkilla]

2900XT 1.55V @ -100

:eek: MAN that's some voltage! How about your PCI-E frequency?

[systemviper]

that is just friggin unreal, you r a better man then i

great job

[AndreYang]

:eek: MAN that's some voltage! How about your PCI-E frequency?



I didn't adjust any PCI-E frequency. Could PCI-E frequency help score on X38 mobos? I really am not sure, but I will test again this weekend.

[zanzabar]

what kind of psu dose it take to do that

[binormalkilla]

Well on mine I run 115, and if I set higher it causes instability at 950 Mhz on the core, and any lower it does as well AFAIK......I'll test again though tomorrow or the day after.
I've always found that it gives a little headroom for OCing the GPUs.

[AndreYang]

Thermaltake 1200W

I remember someone told me X38 PCIE doesn't help any 3D score. It's different between P35 and X38.

P35 PCIE 125+ help 3D score much, but X38 doesn't. Maybe we need to test again.

Oh I've never heard that it affected scores, but rather OC stability.....I'll test though. I can't get stable past 960 @ 1.35V in games...I freeze after about 5 minutes. I tried lowering the PCI-E to 105 and it didn't affect it, and I've tried higher too....

[divxwant]

greatest point 30k

[lukas69]

Great bench Andre
:shocked:

[blind_ripper]

vic push the pci-e bus :D , damn u should alway's push it !
X38 just hass pci-e 2.0 but the 2900Xt's are just pci-e so yeah oc'ing the pci-e bus will help u get more speed . the reasson why it helps on P35 more is that it only hass 16x 4x cf :) , X38 hass 16x 16x so u will see nice boost when u do oc the pci-e ;)

I heard someone already done 5.9G SLI and score is very close to 30K. I must test again soon.
