My First Super Pi Ever! (a64@2700Mhz) comments?


Ok, well i was playin with my 3800+ some more. Got it to 2.7Ghz, on 1.6v Now, i backed my memroy off, as i didnt want to worry about it craping out. 2x 512mb TCCD 1:1 225Mhz 2t-2.5-3-3-6 (i know) If it runs 2.7 for a wile ill put the memoy back to 1t 2-3-3-6 and see what happends...


Anyways this is my first run at superpi...how dose it look? What am i looking for?

Ohh yea, im running windows XP pro SP2.... :( not sure if that hurts or not...

Edit: lol, this is my everyday OS here too.. I had norton corprate running (includeing realtime scan) and Daemon tools

Would a fresh install with nothin incress the score....and dose this work on redhat 8?

[I(illa Bee]

hmmm i set my memory back to 2-3-3-6 1t 2.75... will try 2-2-2-5 1t next, and try up to 3v if nessary.

anyways..LMK how this looks...

nice run for first time. if you are running TCCd, though. i would not recommmend 3.0v on the RAM. TCCD likes to hit high FSB at low volts with slightly relaxed timings.

I'd shoot for 265-275 FSB with a 10x multi as a base point. if you have something real good like G. Skill LE, you should even be able to scale above 275.

Like 2-3-3-6? 2.5-3-3-7?

leave 1t on at all time im assumming....

When it comes down to it...i play games...so a good fast OC that stabel is a good thing and the diffrence between 2.6Ghz 218MhzDDR 2-2-2-5 1t and 2.6Ghz 260Mhz DDR 2-3-3-7 1t is really nothing to me...

but its fun to benchmark and tweak with the best of them every now and then.

nice time there mate.

i also tried out my 3800+ on a asus a8n sli dlx...

board bios: 1005.003, vcore @ 1.68 (board max ) vdimm @ 3.0 (even though I could of left it stock )

Hmm... Ill have to see if i can get her up to 2.8Ghz...

I have not tried 2-2-2-5 yet at thease speeds..ill give it a try right now... :P

[Bennah]

oh i see in your sig... you got a venice 3800+ if its 90nm... normal 3800+ newcastles are 130nm...

yea i really needed volts when i was going for my best super pi times but just didnt have the volts there to give to the ram.

[I(illa Bee]

Ohh crap..i didnt mean to put 90nm on there..i was reading the tread on the Vience core jsut before i edited that...

lol, ill edit it out, im running and old newcastle core.

Im not really going for the fastest time i can get, im just running it at the setting i find stabel for my gamming. I jsut tried 2.8Ghz but it was a no go.
2.6 i know is 100% stable, 2.7 is seeming more and mroe to run good, as ran thru the night last night with prime and a BFV Co-opp server running.

2.7 Is looking to be the sweet spot.

[I(illa Bee]

hmmm i got it to run 2.8Ghz tonight with better cooling (cold outside air) but i cant complete Pi? give an error....

nice time there mate.

You need some tweaking.

Get Codereds A64 tweaker and use his recommended BH5 settings.

[Bennah]

lol, didnt do any tweaking on there, could be bothered to.

I did on these runs though ;) A64 3800+ NC with a stock cooler with room air...

on a neo2 plat, with 1.31b bios. got a slk-948u here i'l try out later and shoot for higher mhz and lower time.
