but i think something is wrong with this scores, especially with 01, and AM3 is bugged low as well, got 323k at these clocks :S
i have to figure out its card or driver / os problem, but with 4890 its all fine, i managed to get first place on hwbot with single (1x) 4890 in 01, 03, 05 :)

Nice score and oc. gratz!!

great job:up:

Nice numbers!
Do I see cap-mod on HD4890? :D

nice score Achill3uS ;).

Nice results there. I'm pretty sure that you can do 6.99s to 7.015s at 6443.2GHz; drop me a pm if you wanna give my modded BIOS a try mate. ;) Dunno, but maybe it could help a bit.

Nice results!!!!
As before said pi can go better :D
4890's clocks really rock...:hehe: These cards are killers....!

sub 7s is not too far :D

poor e8600 :shrug::shocked:

i re-checked my E8600 for better 01 score with 295 like last time, it seems the new mobo solved the nature issue... but sadly last week my psu died and could use only an asus 750w for this bench session wich seemd not enough for powering 6.3G+ cpu speed, but still much better score like last time so i can put my C2D combo on hold for a while and keep benching on i7 :)

highest score without screenshot, only ORB: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9494286

:up: Nice benches. These 4890's sure go high on air.
