A64 3000+ Freak boot at 3600Mhz(world record???)+ good budget ocing

Just something very silly that happened to me while playing with my motherboard the other day !!

i will have many more picks and benchies as it has proven TO BE FANTASTIC so far running 330X5 and 350X5 (once a suicide shot though)

A64 running at 2.63Ghz at 1.58 real voltage (default heatsink)
Also have a Gigabyte 6600Gt which is happy working at 585 / 1250 Stock heatsink
And to top it all up My ADATA Vitesta DDR500 is doing 550 Cas 2.5-3-3-1 1T

Anyways ill post some scores screenshots soon but here is a quick roundup

Sandra mem >>> 73XX/72XX
Aquamark >>> 68900
3D Mark 2001 >>>> 24110
3D Mark 2005 >>>> 4010

oh forgot to mention : ASUS A8N Sli Deluxe with Tagan 480W

ultra ata 133 hard disk to go with the High HTT :)

Nice is that 2x6600GT SLI?

My 1x6600GT scores are a bit lower than yours, but i'm also only running single channel.

My scores:
Cpu at 2758 (10x275 1T, Single Channel), 6600GT at 552mhz/1.10ghz

3D01: 22,485
3D03: 9001
3D05: 3604
AM3: 61,552

no mate this is WITH A SINGLE CARD ONLY and i am very dissapointed so far
especially in aquamark because my PIV 2.8 at 3.5GHz and a 9800XT beat
that score EASILY no tweaking at all

its interesting to notw that the card Geforce completed a 3d mark 2003 run at 625/1330 on cold air (from the window, about 5C) but the score went up by 50marks so i think that there is some overclocking protection and the drivers are not letting me go this high !

also the memory runs at 520Ddr (8/10ths set to ddr333 in the bios)

Aquamark is optimized to use HyperThreading, this is why you got high scores.

oh ok i was not aware of that to be honest !

Also i did a test run of Unreal tournament 2003 demo benchmark at 1024X768 with everything set for speed and i get

around 352Fps for Flyby
around 135Fps for Botmatch

Do you have a compare link for any of your scores, i'm trying to figure out where i'm loosing points, unless there is some throttling going on.

i cant publish them mate , cause i got no internet connection at the time being back home and i surf from the office... but what you need to do with 3dmark 2k1 is to run all the tests 3 consecutive times, this will help you :) its just an age old bug in the software

Voodoo|Minion can you please tell me what voltage are u pumping into your Vitesta ddr500 ?
Is it a 512 or a 256 mb stick ?
My vitesta is only doing 260 fsb 3 4 4 7 at 2.9 v (3v in AbitEq)

I think it is weird you can boot on 300x5 (set in bios) I can't even boot with 300x4 (set in bios)

Thats because the 9800XT is faster than the 6600GT - the GT just beats the 9800 Pro out.

I can complete 3dmark at 300+ fsb with ram async, many nf3 mobos if you drop the LDT to 3x, they can take 300+ fsb/HTT. Its 1:1 thats the problem and thats my ondie controller. I dont see anyway you could boot at 3.6GHz, its probably posting at much lower clocks, but its some sort of bios bug, ive seen several boot at those MHz

Actually, a 6600GT oc'ed like that will beat a 9800xt. Stock clocks are 500/500 I think

BTW, what does IIRC mean?
