Hi

Some days ago I have made that, what I have been dreaming for a long time ...dual SS benching - one unit for CPU, second for GPU :) I have xtra cheap Radeon X550 as GPU (sth like 45 eur now ;) ), and Venice 3000+ .

Hardware :

-AMD 64 Venice 3000+ E6
-DFI NF4-D
-2x 256 MB KHX 3500 BH-5
-Sapphire Radeon X550 128/128 4 ns, stock 400/400 Mhz (VGPU moded 1.25 @ 1.55 V) .
-Antec TruePower 550W

Unit for CPU : Orange Ice unit (Danfoss NL11F + R507 + CPEV), running on CPU @ -47-50*C evap (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=88368)

Unit for GPU : Rotary Single-stage, running on GPU @ -60-69*C evap (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=95962)

Unluckily my card was detected as a X600 in my system ...I think that's something wrong in bios, but that was in stock, I have moded the bios of that card ...I just picked it out from box and that had been X600 (but that's X550 in real :p: ) .

My current 3000+ E6 is rather poor O/C'er, and it only can done sth like 3.15-3.20 ghz /1.82 V on phase-change, and has coldbug @-30*C CPU. My previous E3 3000+, had done sth like 3.32-3.36 ghz /1.79 V, but it had died :(

So I was fighting in X600 category on ORB . I was benching in 3D Mark 2001 and 3D Mark 2003 .

3DM2003 - 5340 p. (http://service.futuremark.com/orb/projectdetails.jsp?projectType=10&projectId=4735770) - card clocked 753/708 Mhz, CPU @ 3160 Mhz - that's currently 6th place on ORB in X600

3DM2001 - 19257 p. (http://service.futuremark.com/orb/projectdetails.jsp?projectType=6&projectId=8949332) - card clocked 705/696 Mhz, CPU @ 3204 Mhz - that's currently 4th place on ORB in X600

If mine GPU had been dectected correctly, I would have been 1 st on ORB in both marks :D , because currently 1st place on X550 in 2001 is 18741 p. (http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=8723228) and in 2003 is 4647 p. (http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=4442159) :D

Some nice numbers on GPU evap in Windows :p:

Great setup!

You should go well past 800mhz with 1.8-1.9vGPU, try it ;)

Peter, why do you use dielectric geese? Isnt the neopren insulation efficient?

Cool results btw.. :p:

I like these things done on cheap hardware, nice job.
