View Full Version : 20k possible with OCz booster, 256mb bh5 at 260MHz and ti4800se with mods?

I hit 18955 marks right now at 238x11 with ras-cas3 ram. How much will I gain going to ras-cas2? I recon 300 marks sounds reasonable. Then add 22fsb more, how bout another 200-300 marks more? Thats 500 marks at least I hope, lets say I hit 19.5k barely with the two. I am at 101.5 in nature and its my experience that each fps in nature I gain 100 marks since the other tests go up too. Thus id need a ti4800se with enough clocks for 106.x in nature for 20k. Andy gets 104.9 in nature at 345/720 clocks on his. Thus 350/740 clocks on one of those should do the trick! Maybe a few MHz more clocks but around that! How much would this cost me?
$70 for good ti4800se plus time to vmod
$58 for OCz booster
$70? for 256mb of GOOD bh5, the kind thatll do 260fsb at around 3.5v I hope!!!!!!! I highly doubt I can find any bh5 thatll do 288fsb and if so, id have 20.3k then :D
How risky is the OCz booster to the a64's ondie memory controller? Is it compatable with chaintech VNF3 mobo? I only will use it to break 20k with ti4200, 15k with ti500, 12k with mx440, 24k with 9700, etc :slobber:

it should be pretty easy to break 20k with a good ti 4800se, like the Asus one with 600 mhz ram and the ti 4600 PCB.
A64's are indeed vulnerable to Vdimm, so going high, always take it slow, cause theres literally no warning when they die.
your screen will go black silently, and that will be all you see.
no burn marks or smoke, just a CPU that never posts.
I killed 4 AMD 64's in the span of about a month, all from Vdimm.
but that was on old boards, like the K8V and K8NS.
newer Boards are supposedly better and allow high Vdimms realitivly safely, but like always, never assume your safe, and take it slow.
A64's aren't cheap.
try to avoid the 512 cache CPU's if you really want a big score.
other wise your dragothic low and car scores are always gonna be low.
other then that, it would be pretty easy to break 20k on a Ti 4800se assuming you do it right.
Geforce4ti4200
08-12-2004, 11:38 PM
I thought all ti4800se come at 550MHz ram? Before I take my chances, id like to see how it went with others. I hear using the booster is much safer than strait soldering since the booster gives cleaner volts with less spiking. 512k cache a64 only hurts car and drag low with x800 cards and to a much lesser extent overclocked 9800xts. ti4200s are way too much of a bottleneck to get any serious hits with my 512k cpu. I may lose a little in the lobbies but my MHz will make up for it anyway. my 2.6GHz newcastle is like a 2.4 to 2.5GHz claw anyway but probably like a 2.3 claw for x800s.
Man, i tell you, your current CPU is strong enough to hit the 20K mark easily.
All you need is some EB RAM and some awesome cardclocks.
If you take a 4800SE from Asus like Kunaak said, it won't be much of a problem to get some very high clocks, of course you have to Vmod the card.
Look at my old crappy ti4200, it only has 4xAGP and very crappy EtronTech 3.3ns mem that oc like sh*t!
Also, the core wasn't much of a good overclocker, i just forced it!!

CAS timings make significant impact in 3d benchmarks. especially with Athlons, for they are more memory dependant that P4s. CAS 2 from CAS 3 can be worth up to 5,000 pts in Aquamark3. I'm not really sure about 3dmark tho.:confused:

going for cas 2 to 3 does pretty much nothing..And P4 are way more memory dependant than athlon.. athlons are high fsb dependant

if i remember correctly each fps = ~20 points on nature? correct me if im wrong.
Car low changes every run... Its not the same benchmark... Notice the barrels your car runs into... Different every time...

The Asus V9480 is the best 4800SE, here in Sweden we have an store who gets those sometimes, 63$ I would like 2 buy one of those :)
How fast are you running your ram right now?

Dang, 63 bucks, that's some €55,- isn't it?
Or did you mean €63,-?
Still a very nice price for such a card.

08-13-2004, 11:15 AM
how good are the albatron ti4800se? are all ti4800se good or just the asus? I hear this mentioned the most! Sweden has some for $63 but wont the shipping costs to america be a beast? :( as for my cpu being powerful enough, I am 4fps down on you in car high and even more in both lobbies so it remains to be seen :)
One of us has got to be the boss right? :D
Soon as the temperatures here in Holland will drop, i will give this card another shot.
Looking back, i forgot a few tweaks hence the low Car low score.
I just have got to do better, looking at Burnerman's score, he had the same GPU clock as me but some 70MHz more on the CPU and quite a bit more on his videomem.
He also has a 8xAGP card but comparing my score to his i have the feeling i can do better than 20095. ;)
Don't know how much there is left to be gained but i think 20K3 or even 20K4 should be doable.
If there's nothing left in my sys, no big deal, i already hit that 20K target.
About your CPU power, look at mrIcee and Gabbax, they only had 2.4 and 2.45GHz respectively and took 20K.
Geforce4ti4200
08-13-2004, 01:18 PM
Mr. Icee has like 420MHz on the gpu core if I remember and 800+ on the ram with like 115 in nature. I do know he was using prometeia. In order for me to hit my 20k, I am gonna need your gpu clocks if not higher and most likley an agp 8x card for the small boost agp 8x gives to nature
Geforce4ti4200
08-13-2004, 05:57 PM
I cant find the asus ti4800se anywhere but I am buying albatron ti4200s, do all the turbro have 8x agp? then its just as good as the ti4800se anyway cause both are 8x agp. I have one on the way with more comming. I will still need 256mb bh5 and the OCz booster with some godly ti4200 clocks for 20k

u'd better check your board is compatible with the ddr booster first. its got a list on the official page i believe.
Geforce4ti4200
08-13-2004, 09:15 PM
I may not even bother with the booster and just grab a 256mb of ballistix or 3700eb and it should do 238fsb easy at 2-2-2-5 timings. How many more marks would I gain going from 238 to 260fsb? 200? 300? If so then its not worth the $ and risk. Still, its gonna be that much harder to break 20k at only 238fsb but the ras-cas2 will help me out some. That and I am buying many ti4200s and ti4800se and I am mailing them to my friend, hes gonna mod em, keep one and send the rest back. With enough clocks on one of those 8x agp ti4200 and ras-cas2 ram, I might just break 20k

A few month ago I found a statement in a hardware forum:
The 3DMark score is calculated using the following formula:
3DMark score = (Game1LowDetail + Game2LowDetail + Game3LowDetail) * 10 + (Game1HighDetail + Game2HighDetail + Game3HighDetail + Game4) * 20
With my rig there´s a difference between RAS-to-CAS 2 and 3 of ~1.5 %.

Thanks, I will have top eye out for one of those beasts then! I have NOT seen a single one here and even if I did, I am only willing to pay so much too. I bought several albatron turbros, I am pretty sure at least one of those will hit 360/750 or around that air cooled with vmods. all are agp 8x too, thats like 200-300 marks boost alone. also the core matters thrice as much as the ram if not more. I gain like 5 marks per MHz on the ram and 15 marks per MHz on core. Still, I will be on the lookout for one. I can also buy someone's modded asus ti4800se if the price, including shipping to Florida is right :D

For the 20k quest then would not buying a 1MB 754 chip be a good bet, that is worth several hundred points and is a dead cert. Or is the expense for this too much ?
In my own quest for 20k I have now got the memory to run either 2.5-2-2-5 at 240x10.5 or 2.5-3-3-7 at 265x9.5, just need to test to see which is faster - also whether 267 likes 4xHT or needs going back to 3xHT speed ( that would be a shame).
By DDR Booster was DOA so that was a set back.
Better news though is that I now have some electricity to the shed, only enough for the beer fridge, but getting there.

I would need like 2.4GHz maybe a bit more to match my 2.6GHz newcastle. Almost all clawhammers are the older c0 stepping which may not like certain ram sticks, especially if theres more than 1. The T2 command rate the CG has would be useful when gaming with large amounts of ram so I like that too. There isnt any point at this time in me getting another a64 for s754 because 90nm winchesters are supposedly due in october, those would blow 20k out the door, heck wouldnt be supprised to crack 22k with one of those at like 260x12=3.12GHz on a 3800+ winchester air cooled because of its 90nm runs cooler and faster. This would easily beat out codered's current 3400+ too at 2.9GHz but hes got one fast ti4200 which I dont, but im getting many ti4200s(my friends want one anyway so its all good) ill keep the best one and sell the rest to my friends. If I dont break 20k with this 2.6GHz newcastle, then the winchester will be too easy LOL. I just would rather save my money at this point for a winchester which would be a BIG upgrade :) you have some nice ram clocks there. Dont worry about HT, it made 0(zero) difference to me. sorry to hear the OCz booster didnt work. I dont know what to do with the ram side or if I should vmod with clip ons just for 3dmark then I can remove em in 1 min, eshbach knows about that. 256mb bh5 at 260fsb with mods or ballistix at 238fsb without mods. Basically my best chance for 20k is take a risk with vmods for an hour, thats all I need. enjoy the beer :toast: and hows the weather?

"260x12=3.12GHz on a 3800+ winchester air cooled because of its 90nm runs cooler and faster"
Umm... right.... Only company I know producing mass volume 90nm is Intel and their chips were certainly not cooler, even after some newer steppings. Regarding faster, even though the lengthened the ALU pipeline by by about 50%, it only OC's a fraction of that higher than the 130nm Northwoods.
Geforce4Ti4200: Man, do you ever get out for fresh air? Perhaps less talk and more gaming? If you haven't tried DoOm3 on your 9800pro, this would be a good time to do that... (me expects him be gone for couple hours of Imp fragfest)

amd is not having problems with heat. So far one guy got a hold on an engineering sample of a moble 90nm a64 and he hit 2.7GHz with a .05v increase from stock. The final cpus should overclock quite a bit better. 2.7GHz is a nice starting point for an enginering sample on a prototype mobo

Hmm, x3 HT did not make any difference and 265x9 at 2.5-3-3-7 was the same as 240x10 at 2.5-2-25 .. about 18.2k.
So I really need that OCZ Booster to come back from RMA to see if I can hit 250x10 at 2-2-2-5 with my old Corsair XMS 3500 bh5.

Sure it's cool to be king of the obsolete video card class....but when it comes down to it don't you want to be able to game at something more than 26fps?....just my opinion I just figure if your spending all this money on multiple video cards, y not just buy something that will have practical applications......5 4200's a 9800P and a ti4800 doesnt equal a X800. I won't even get into your 3.3ghz air "wonderclock".

I am selling my ti4200s to my friends who want one themselves, am only keeping the best overclocker :D also one of my friends says 9800 pros will hit $100 for the first time once the agp verson of the 6600GT comes out. I doubt itll go that low, may not even drop depending how cheap and fast the 6600GT is. anyway 240fsb seems to be my rams limit at 2-2-2-5 2.88v which is VERY decent :D relaxing the timings dont help at all, but if I use t2 I can get to 245fsb but it cancels out. If I need t2 past 240fsb then whats the point of doing a vdimm mod? 260fsb at t2 wont really be better than 240 at t1

sounds like nice RAM...wanna tell me your secret or did you just get lucky? :) I have some crappy overclocking BH-5...233 max stable and thats w/ 3.3vdimm :(

what cpu and mobo is that on? I also had crappy mushkin level II that needed 3v for 220fsb but I think my nf7-s mobo may have limited the fsb clocks anyway. I find all my ram clocks MUCH higher on a64s than athlon xps, even my cheapo corsair value pc3200 does 250fsb at 2.88v on the a64 but wouldnt bulge past mid 220 on my old xp2000 rig :(

all this ....................

when I find a link, ill let ya know. Its speculation right now but lets get back topic now.

i am calling you out on this, you stated specifically it was the rave at where ever you visited to get this questionable info, and now you say 'when i find a link'???????????????????????/
i am sorry, but you are so full of it.
i probably will get in trouble for saying all i did, but somehow you have got to learn to post properly and truthfully. your posts are misleading, to say the least.
and if it is speculation, where, who, and a link would be nice. you have been asked this numerous times, and you ignore, hoping it will go away is my guess???
jeesh.
and, regarding your original post, yes, the OCz booster will get you what you want so badly.

It's not the board or CPU, I've ran her at a 1:1 divider w/ max vdimm and looser timings increasing the ram speed slowly, but to no avail.
It's P4 2.4C 30 capper and epox 4pca3+
Hopefully with more voltage I can get the system to run 300+ fsb stable w/ a 5:4 divider, a waste running this RAM @ 3:2 divider

Its speculation right now but lets get back topic now. anyway I can smell 20k marks comming up soon, the ram I got off ebay is probably bh5 I have done 240fsb at 2-2-2-5 timings at 2.88v and will try for 250fsb next. Then 260! I am besides myself in excitement at the find! :D
What brand is your new RAM?
240 2-2-2-5 with just 2.88V is nice, is it stable at that voltage?

new score! only 158 marks gained with better timings, is this normal or way too low? I was expecting 300 to 500 marks! still a gain netherless, just low or not?
