This is the best I can get a Phenom running in the ASUS Crosshair MB with Bios 0905 Beta its stable but Sli is broken scores make no difference and with single 8800GTX Im only scoring 10,000 3Dmark 06 with Vista64.

Very nice OC!
Can you try 3DMark03? It has less to non performance loss on Vista compared to XP :D
Ill start downloading 3Dmark 03 and post a result
Just some more benchies and a 3Dmark06 in XP with 1 x 8800GTX
I've just noticed your Everest memory latency...
You're running TBL Errata 298 BIOS patch....
Can you disable it in BIOS?
If not then use AOD magic button on the top right corner and make it RED..
It's not the same as disabling it from the BIOS, but still something :)
thats what everyone has been limited to around 2600mhz...
Well look at this ran older version of AOD under XP disabled TBL thing and memory scores shot up compared to my first post mem benchies, not looking to bad for a non 790FX Mobo.
Looks better now :up:
Still not where it should be with Errata disabled. I will post my screen from Vista for comparisons :)
Yes please post results from your mobo
Here it is:

That is with Errata298 DISABLED :) . Also pay attention that 4-4-4 runs was with UnGanged memory and 5-5-5 with Ganged.
Finally 3DMark06
This is CF run as shown on picture...
Errata298 kills a lot of performance from your RIG. Hopefully with proper BIOS your score will be at least on pair with mine..

Sad for me that all above scores means almost nothing because my CPU isn't stable above 2.4GHz under my XP x64 :(
Luckily I will be swapping my Phenom to Black Edition soon ;)
What can I say wow thats a big difference ill definantly start looking at the 790FX it truly brings life to the Phenom, are you Lightman also happy with the Gigabyte Mobo amd how do you change between ganged and unganged mine is set to ganged. Thanks
You were right Lightman the TBL was still on well I mangaed to get it off by following an a post to disable it with CrystalCPU and wow what a difference in Windows Vista 64 my mem results and 3Dmark came too life here is a post just look at first post with original memory results in Vista and now.
Excuse me guys is there anyway to ramp up memory clocks with these processors?
Now Everest is showing correct values :)
You can't set UnGanged mode on AM2 boards, you need AM2+.
Also for memory testing using SiSoft download latest SP1 version. It has multi-threaded memory test and numbers are substantially higher on Phenoms ;)
Yes! I can set memory to 1066MHz from BIOS, but with HTT around 220MHz It's skyrocketing to 1.2GHz and that is where I can't get my Crucials to work fully stable :p:
Besides 5-5-5 timings are killing performance....
With Black Edition Phenom It will be tweaker dream platform. I would then set HTT to 208-210MHz (memory ~1100 4-4-4) and CPU to higher multi, resulting in max. bandwidth and max. performance :) .
My Memory Bandwith scores are also higher even in Ganged mode (will be testing Unganged tonight after work):
< Benchmark Results >
Int Buff'd iSSE2 Memory Bandwith 8.95GB/s
Float Buff'd iSSE2 Memory Bandwith 8.92GB/s
Results Interpretation: Higher index values are better.
< Performance vs. Speed >
Int Buff'd iSSE2 Memory Bandwith 11.46MB/s/MHz
Float Buff'd iSSE2 Memory Bandwith 11.42MB/s/MHz
Results Interpretation: Higher index values are better.
