Congrats KP, that's an amazing run. You could crush the competition with Roro's clocks in 32m.

hey Vince are you sure Maxmem=600 won't give you even a more efficient score buddy...............do that and give it another crack while you're at it...........i want to see 8m 5Xs time :D for the 8m class here :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: heheheheheh

another thing you can try depending on how good your board is .....cool that vMCH and give it some DICE and 2.0V and try for 4:5 RATIO and lower RAM clocks as the latencies are tighter.................i think i found that 500MHz on RAM at 5-4-4-8 timings was equivalent in speed to 600MHz on memory in 2:3 ratio with 5-5-4-x timings

Wow Vince, that's another job well done!! :eek2::toast: :toast:

Do you think you can top that score at higher cpu speed or are you running out of memory speed?

Very nice Vince! Congrats :toast:

I wish I can bench these clocks one day to challenge you buddy ;) What was the temp during the bench?

I've stopped using maxmem myself... Doesn't really help, a good copy-waza is the key to be focused on. :p:

Guys I :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing did it! I think new overall WR in superpi 32m at only 5261mhz :D. I am posting this here because I want to share it with my low clock challenge homies :toast: . Without the help of some of you guys, I could have never have done this...really. Give credit where credit is due. I appreciate it very, very much. Before, dinos, gautum, and others I pm'd. I busted my ass for almost two weeks on this score and it paid off like hard work always does.

i haven't yet tested maxmem with all the other tweaks inluding the luna+silver+wazza+highclockinstall....just sold off my gear and looking out for something else to play with, so for the moment only E6300ES to play with lol but at least i can give it a crack in the 1066 strap and lower categories even though i'll pay a sizable penalty for B1

i think Vince should look into 4:5 as well though

Unfortunately, it's hard to make 4:5 working... guess it becomes a matter of chipset.

I was running about -120c to -125c on the cpu, still unlapped. Can do 5374mhz 1m at little bit colder like -125c to -127c/1.87v. I think with more than 1.92v, this could end up being a 5400mhz+ 3d cpu. I will go back to 3d soon, so we'll see.
I tried some diff maxmem sizes with no success on core2, doesnt seem to help like it did with fx57/maxmem104.

Hey before, if you have problems with your next container you try, you should get one of my EVO's man :D. I can walk away from the pc after a pour to get something to eat from the fridge, hit the bathroom and come back to about 2-3degress less temperature at nearly 5300mhz/1.87v mid 32m.
Benching one unit in superpi with core2 is tooo easy.

Who made it? I am sure it will be good.
Big difference between running 3d and 2d as for load on the container of course. Single threaded sp just doesnt push the chips that hard. As soon as you go over 1.9v, the heat output goes up big time though. Trick is to find that zone with the chip where the heat ouput/voltage is perfect. That's when I like benching ln2 :D
Wait till you run some 06' with quadcore :eek:, that is the toughest test of a unit IMO.

03-05-2007, 07:26 AM
It was made by the University of Grenoble (France) Department of Physics... a chance, my mother is an Honorary Professor of Biochemistry at the university... so it helps;

I'm waiting for QX6700 + P5N32 + 8800GTX lent by a magazine... Will be the opportunity to test the container into strong conditions :D

Maybe you - or anybody else for that matter - can help me figure out what the hell is going on with this Intel rig I've got here. I thought it'd be fun to try to go sub-13 min @ 3600, but it turns out I spent most of the night trying to go sub-14 min @ 3600 . I applied almost every tweak I know of - keep in mind that I only know AMD tweaks - and didn't even break into the 13's. WTF IS WRONG????? This is on an EVGA 680i and the memory's @ 2.5V. For the record, these stix are a pair of gems as they'll boot @ 4-4-3-4, DDR2 1250 at 2.5Vmem....too bad they don't run worth a crap @ that speed though. Time to do the vmem mod....;)

:woot: :clap:
Now I know why I couldn't beat such scores clock by clock ;).

Could You post the subtimings used, please?

What about 1M 2:3?
And what is limiting now? :D

And last question: i975X with 4:5 - how high it will go?

@s7e9h3n: Command Rate 1T is very important for NV680i (and the chipset isn't really good in Pi...). And also not all memory ratios are good. If You can run 3:2 ratio linked 1T (mem @ 1066 1T of course, don't know if possible) it will be much better.

And yes, 4:5 is extremaly difficult on i965 - Commando with 2,025V @ NB (aircooled, but REALLY low temperature, ambient <0°C and HR-05 + some fans) tops @ ~425 FSB (with optimized subtimings and 1066 strap of course).

eva2000
03-05-2007, 08:14 AM
nah JMKS - 1T won't help unless you can get memory to do 520+ mhz 4-4-4-4 1T with tight sub timings. Most high end Micron D9 are doing around 430-450mhz 4-4-x-x 1T with 2.4-2.6+ vdimm only

Doesn't help for 3dmark either 1T if you have ram that does 533mhz 4-3-3-4 2T tight sub timings either > http://i4memory.com/showthread.php?t=3773

you need 600+ mhz on memory on either 965/975 or 680i platform to even come close and probably need B2 stepping core2 for 10-20 seconds clock for clock faster times than B1

Lol....1066@1t? Sheesh....that's not gonna be too easy. I'll try 32m @ as hgih as 1t will take me and post back...thanks...

@ Eva: Exactly how much over 600+? ;) My sticks are capable of it. Just need a tad bit more Vmem....Maybe it's time I try running 4x1gb ddr2 1200 @ 4-3-3-4 :hehe:

heh #3 ;)
and def what eva said Steve. First thing I learned when I started benching 32m was to ditch the b1 stepping. Pretty significant difference in time between the two steppings. Something to do with cache utilization?? Not sure.

eva2000
03-05-2007, 08:33 AM
well my ram is capable of 640mhz 5-4-3-4 2T at 2.5v but had to loosen sub timings too much that it was slower than my 600mhz 5-3-3-3 very tight sub timings at 9x400FSB.. so i'd say you'd need 622-640mhz 4-3-3-4 with same tight sub timings as at 600mhz 4-3-3-4 to get their on 680i platform.

I just don't have the ram to do that and I limit myself to under 2.5-2.6v vdimm as I like my ram and don't want to kill them hehe

It's gotta have something to do with the cache as the 1m times seem at least close to par....I'm not in any position to ditch this cpu as it's not mine :p: But maybe it'll be good for a few 1m passes @ -100C on the auto :D Oh well, I guess for 32m, I'll just have to wait for a few quads from AMD ;)

@ EvaL OK...I'll try tighter...but for some 1m runs instead. I guess we've established that this cpu is a POS in 32m :p:

i found nemo
03-05-2007, 08:57 AM
^If I remember his thread right, he tested Super Pi on two seperate installs, with the same settings except one install was done at 2000mhz and another at 2800mhz. The 2800mhz was faster in both 1m and 32m. OPB has also been using this tweak for quite a while, and installs windows at over 5300mhz IIRC.

??? bull i install windows o/c'ed all the time and i get 32.7xx in 1m ... so ur saying if i install windows on stock it will be even slower?

eva2000
03-05-2007, 09:05 AM
only a prob if you are in for 3.6ghz challenge.. if you can clock B1 higher than B2 to a pt then overall 32M might be faster than B2 but with -100C monster of yours I'm sure you'll be able to max out any cpu LOL

i will test that against your claims with a nlite-d XP and installation at 3.8GHz to see if it makes a difference

Owkey, I installed a few server03 OS'es with my 3000+ venice at:

7x200=1400
8x200=1600
9x200=1800
9x333=3000

Same timings, mem speed ... Only the multiplier changed the first three installations. The last one was done with 133 divider.

Are you speaking of installation times or actual speed of the benchmarks when you refer to one being faster than the other? Got any screenshots for bench results?

BTW-- my comment about installing the OS overclocked was joking ,that is definitely not one of my tweaks lol :D
In fact the last time I installed 2k3 I did it at 800mhz more than previous time because I was too lazy to go back into bios to lower settings, and the times were indentical on all of my pre-ln2 run checks.

S7 there are two things not helping you there

the chip is B1 stepping
you are on 680i mobo

move to P965/975 and find a B2 chip and you will start hitting low 13M :toast:

dinos22
03-05-2007, 02:40 PM
Zeus have you tried 3-3-3-x timings on 975X.....you should be able to do better with tighter timings from what i've seen on all W.R. attempts with 975X ...none of them ran CAS4

Gautam
03-05-2007, 02:44 PM
Hm, getting the CAS 3 power to do it would be difficult. I should have tried when I had the chance. My guess is 460x8-470x8 3-3-3 with the right subs would pull it. But yes, 450 3-3-3 is about 5-10 seconds faster than 500 4-4-3 on i975x, though it takes a hell of a lot more voltage, and much better clocking silicon for both the ram and northbridge.

I did 13:21 myself at 450x8, never posted it out of shame against these super 965 times. :D

The 3000 > 1800 > 1600 > 1400 installation when benching at the same speeds.

I was really intrigued by this so decided to give it a little test for myself and here is what I found:-

Installed at 9 x 266 (2.4GHz) - Bench run at 9 x 400 (3.6GHz)
http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q148/JAFFA22/defaultinstall.png

Then I installed @ 9 x 500 (4.5GHz) - Bench run at 9 x 400 (3.6GHz)
http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q148/JAFFA22/4.png


I figured that the vast difference in clocks at install should show any inconsistency if there was any, but basically they turned out pretty much identical, Slightly interesting that the second run started out marginally quicker then slowed down until in the end it was a couple of seconds slower, but nothing to get excited about.


Oh well was worth a try, nothing ventured nothing gained as they say :toast: :D

I tried but something on my rig has a big dislike for CAS 3, don't know wheter it's the board or the RAM, tried to boot at 350 with 2.4V but it doesn't make it all the way into windows.

Somewhere in the end when it's loading the USB driver for my wireless dongle it's hanging.

I think the mem should be capable of doing CAS 3 somewhere up to 400MHz at least (Gskill 6400HZ) with reasonable voltage.

Also tried 2:3 divider but that's a sort of same story as CAS 3, the board probably hates it.

I will try some more but i don't want to fubar my OS as it's my everyday install. :D

I used Server03 to do the tests + A64.

I just checked my other hdd, but haven't found the screens :(. If there is serious interest, I'll do the tests again this weekend. If you all think this is worth nothing, please tell me, so I won't waste time.

TBH, 20's as low as I've seen myself on a 32m. OPB has said in the past that 18 is possible...I believe it, but haven't yet tried. Even at 18 though, the most I'd pick up would be ~1.5 - 2 seconds total off of the 32m @ trfc20....

OK, I tried the "theme tweak" and maybe the reason why I've never heard about it is because IT DOESN'T WORK :p:

Luna Theme

Classic Theme
http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/7272/8x45032mer5.jpg

This is about as fast as this setup will go @ 3600. The only "big" tweak I didn't use was maxmem, but I never had too much success with it in the first place. It's quite amazing to see just how much the B2 steppings are faster than the B1's @ 32m. From what I'm told, while there's a difference in 1m's, the discrepancy isn't as bad.......

@Hipro: You'll be hearing from me in a bit ;)

Gautam
03-06-2007, 06:57 PM
I think that CPU just likes you only as much as you like it. :p:

It's true though, themes seems to help 1M noticeably, but doesn't have such a pronounced impact on 32M. I did however lose about 5 seconds, which isn't too bad for any tweak.

Some differences that I notice between you and eva-

You're at CAS 4, he's running CAS 5. Your FSB is 450, his is 400. Now one would think that both of those would be working towards your advantage, but 680i is such an odd chipset, its a chance both are hurting. :S Perhaps the 3:4 divider in particular as an additional latency hit, or perhaps you're on a looser strap or something similar as you would be on i965 by running a higher FSB.

Yes, B1's are slower, but IIRC its more like 10-15 seconds or so and not 30. I only tried 32M once on a B1, and that was months ago. I don't recall the time being too far off the norm. But then again, perhaps the effect is more pronounced on 680i than on the Intel chipsets. :shrug:

Dumo said that his B1 was 45 seconds slower (~5%) in 32m...

450 fsb also is a higher strap than 400, as I hear it changes ~434ish and ~340 ish.

Cas 4-5 does not really matter all that much. Stephen, you might be running some timings too tight also :)

And what is all this talk about straps? :p:

Edit: And 5% sounds about right.....

Edit: So maybe I should try running the memory @ 622mhz Cl5? I started running 32m @ that speed 4-4-3-4, but obviously I didn't have enough Vmem since windows started closing by themselves until the whole OS locked up :D

There's a difference here though....This cpu that I'm running is one of the first ES x6800's to come off the lot. Although Dino's tests show his cpu's aren't that far apart, I have feeling that it's not the same case for the x6800's. If I recall correctly, Kingpin posted a 32m run with his B1 @ a super high clockspeed as well as memspeed only the time was amazingly ugly for those clocks. His run must have been AT LEAST 5% off. Even the jap Oc'r Omega admitted that a RETAIL B2 x6800 Conroe has a 1-2 HUNDRED Mhz advantage over an ES B1 x6800 @ 5ghz+.....so, for example, a 5ghz B2 retail XE= a 5.2ghz ES B1 XE...

And Dinos, although you're comparing b1 vs. b2, both your cpu's are ES's. Therefore the B2 isn't necessarily an indication of how the retail B2's are.....

OK, well then what about the benches I ran earlier using the SAME FSB as eva....only I was running 4-3-3-4 @ 600 vs. his 5-3-3-3 @ 600? His time was almost 40 seconds faster than mine. Lets, for a second, just simply ignore the fact that 4-3-3-4 is faster than 5-3-3-3 under ANY conditions and compare only the cpu's. Eva's is a retail B2 which - according to your theory - has a 15 second MAX advantage over the ES B1 I'm using. So doing a little math 40-15 = 25 seconds <--- that's how much faster Eva's run would be compared to mine IF it was a level playing field. Please, then, someone tell me the 25 SECONDS worth of tweaks for 32m that I'm either NOT doing or don't know about........:confused:

It is very strange, I won't deny it. :shrug: And I don't know anything about 680i at all or how to run it.

B1 es is slow as hell in 32m, negligible difference in 1m. 27-28 sec difference in 32m betwen b2 es and b1 es. The b2 retail chip is just about identical to b2es and didnt really see any difference there at all in 32m. My b1 es was one of the very first as well.

Thnx Vince....but one thing that would make it easier on both me and anybody else reading this thread - when we talk about the differences clock for clock between different steppings, it would be nice if we could state advantage and say @ what speed.

With memspeed that high and timings that tight you should have around 12.500 seconds or better.

I'm just curious why "luna's" considered a theme while "classic" isn't? They're both listed under themes.....

Dunno about Vista since I haven't tried it, but 2k3 has both Classic and Luna selectable as "themes" (as well as "silver" and "olive")

I've always liked 2k3 for spi. For me, it's more stable and consistent. XP, when correctly tweeked is on par with 2k3, but rarely any better. One thing I've noticed though, XP will once in awhile spit out an unusual result - something which is a bit too slow or too fast for a particular speed/timings. Dunno what causes that, but 2k3 does it much less often, if at all.....

Gautam

I agree fully about 2K3 vs. XP.

Either way I'm sure I ran a time in the 12.6 range at 400x10 3-3-3 1:1 with my B1 a couple of weeks ago, which isn't that special, you should be a full tenth faster, even without Luna on. Something is a bit odd about your setup. I don't know if the CPU is just getting tired or there's something behind the scenes going on with mem subsystem that we just can't put our fingers on. No clue what it could be though.

And Vista doesn't have anything besides Aero or Classic. Either way its horrible for Pi. :(

Maybe someone will share what tweaks give them most time bonus? :D Except tight memory timings which is not really OS tweak

1. Copy-waza gives ~9s
2. Largesyscache also ~9s
(This was on 965 though)

I haven't tried yet maxmem (does it work)? and a famous OPB cleaner. Someone said it works but I haven't tried it yet

Anything else? :D
before doesn't like maxmem but it works for me.....well i don't have seconds advantages to add but it was consistently faster with ~128MB for 1M and 600M for 32M

my LSC tweak gains more for me but who knows why

i look at the cleaner file and i can't see how it can make a big difference

someone please give me a reasonable explanation

Don't think so, but we've all come to our own conclusions on that matter (there was the longest thread ever in the VIP section). Let's just move on and deal with things as they come up....As they say, "let's put this all behind us"......

BTW, IIRC the Japs all use 2k3 (or at least they used to). And they're the best Spi benchers in the world.....

the idea is to get sub 14m , sub 15m, sub 16m times .....etc

so you either should drop the CPU MHz so that your time finishes around 14m 5Xs or increase the CPU MHz to go under 14m in something like 13m 5Xs time :)

It's an absolutely awesome piece of HW....everything looks VERY polished and professional. I received mine yesterday and it seems that it'll save me the trouble of v-modding future boards. The 680i board that I'm using right now may not need the maximizer though...as it currently has no droop in the Vmem whatsoever...in fact, the Vmem actually INCREASES +.001 when the system is loaded :)

i have experienced the exact same thing, no difference in clocks going from Maxi powered @ 2.45v to board powered VDIMM @ 2.45v (or any other voltage TBH). i was thinking that perhaps unsoldering the coil would help so perhaps i will try that soon. if you do try before me, be sure to report back.

thank you guys!

vdimm is 2.6, but i think i can lower it!
cooling type is as always DELTA fan 12cm 190cfm or so, ambient temp close to 23-25*C, the mems are still naked without their heatpipe heatspreaders, they even have their s/n stickers on!
mem type is the 1200 5-5-5 (AKA D9GKX), not using the maxi shown in the pic yet, because i can't desolder the coil with my low power soldering iron so i have to wait till hipro is back from cebit!

the whole rig is set up for testing reasons, to max out certain parts of hardware for my upcoming bench session, this X6800 benched @ 5160 32m spi with my weakest cascade @ -88 @ load (1.91Vcore) my bench cascade is about -104 @ the same load :D

combine that with the second stage that uses a tecu compressor like the one in your auto and the 690CFM papst on the condenser and you have a bench cascade :D, see ? thats a bench cascade :D

@dinos, I got a chip too. After several recently I got a 6700, a 627B, with a vid of 1.2375v. :D (thats what my face was doing when I booted up the first time)
I've had little time so far but I've been using 1.393v and primed for 50 min last night @3700. Probably won't make a big difference on my times but will be able to use alot less vcore.

hey dude the idea is to get the lowest CPU MHz and reach JUST under a full minute mark


so if you raise your CPU/RAM clocks a little you will shave off the 14 seconds there to get into 12.XX category....the lower the CPU MHz the better :toast:

nice tweaking there man :)
