Zeus if your looking at cpu score it's not your board doing wonders. Its xp versus vista / win 7.Quote:

Zeus, here is the CPU score using the same processor running XP, different MB though because I don’t have XP installed with the Asus M3a79-T Deluxe. I was just running the first tests with the new 4870x2’s in the other test, nothing special. I know CPUZ shows 4127.9MHz in this test but for what it’s worth it’s 20.5X200=4100MHz in the bios. This was the second test CPU only, the first was a complete test as indicated in the main 3D06 window.

I'm falling off the cliff with my score compared to new entries :p:
Also clearly we can see that 955BE is starting to dominate top of the list here. A lot of them 4GHz+ on AIR. Definitely nice progress on AMD manufacturing side of things.
Keep pushing!
ok i need to ask how come i cant get my link public any help would be great

Thanks equinox1, our systems appear closely matched. I see you have the crosshair III, how do you like it? I’ve thought about matching the crosshair III with the 965 when it arrives.
BTW, what are you using to overclock your 4870x2’s? The GPU clocking program I tried always reads the 4870x2’s as 3870x2’s so I decided not to use it.
@ msimax, thanks for all your work in this thread.

Hi guys well my foxcon a79a-s motherboard when belly-up on me on my last bios flash .I had just gotten 2 new XFX4850 (1g) video cards from newegg ($117 dollars each) to up-date from my old 3850s set-up. AMD been pushing there 790GX mother so i gave one a try . I got a Jetway HA07-ULTRA for $109 dollars out at newegg .Put my old beat up PHII 940 cpu in and the new video cards that i had just gotten and BAMM!! 20989 was my 3dmark-06 score .Not bad for a $100 dollar mother and 2 $117 video cards this why i like AMD/ATI hardware it hard to beat for the money.:D

Ya I wish I had 2x 4870X2's instead of 4x 4870's, but they were not all purchased at the same time, so it just didn't work out that way. It is challenging to say the least with all of those cards.
Here is an old one of my scores with 4xHD4670 gfx on air and PII 955BE on ln2..

Ben Brown and Riska, great scores. I don’t think I’ll be catching you Riska, not using my water cooled rig anyway but I’m hoping Ben’s score is still in range of my rig. I guess I better get back to running some 3Dbenches before I fall too far behind.
29k doable about 4900+ Ben you scale about 1000 points give or take if your scaling NB and cpu 100 mhz until you hit about 6 gig then scaling kinda waivers.Quote:

The MSI 790FX- GD70 is solid on DI, might want to give that a whirl, if anything can hit 30K on DI I think that would be the board........it's 100% solid for us on DI......i've only seen the deaths happen above 1.7v on ln2 and we ran one over 1.7v on ln2 ;)
Here's a rough Idea for you.

I have tested at your suggested settings but possibly not during today’s tests, although I will check. The system sometimes scores 6K+ in the CPU tests but for whatever reason it didn’t during this test. I’ve tested using a lower multi and higher fsb to get close to the same clocks with the higher NB speed using the suggested memory settings but the test usually stops during the SM2.0 tests.Quote:

As of today these setting are the only combination I have tried that completed the entire 3D06 run at these clocks. I finally resorted to lowering the default clocks on the GFX cards and then the HDR/SM3.0 tests completed.
Anyway, thanks for the suggestions. I’ll keep testing as there is undoubtedly many combinations that I haven’t tried.

Msimax and myself have a date with 3d03 4x 4890's and the MSI if he can ever get down here.
Can't wait to see the 03 result. It is going to be great. Was benching a few hours ago with Vivi (as he broke the 01 single card record), and a couple other team members. I'm heading back there, and will then give the Gigabyte a go with Dice.
Oh and I saw what you meant regarding the condensation on the GD70. I used art eraser and toilet paper and it worked, but there was still ice underneath the PMW heat sink. Well not underneath, but just below, and against the caps.
Yep watch out for that if the condensation reaches those 5 chips its certain death to board and CPU.Quote:

Hey equinox1, you have any trouble completing the HDR/SM3.0 part of 3DMark06 or do you have problems with one of the other parts? This 965 will run the SM2.0 and CPU tests @4.28GHz but doesn’t really want more than 4.18 to 4.2GHz in the HDR/3.0 tests. I usually run into trouble in the CPU tests but not with this chip. I must be overlooking something? Anyway I hope you do top my score that way I have something to shoot for.Quote:

Good Luck.:)
CPU test is more NB/Core related....
The last 2 game tests failing ram is usually the culprit.....
GT 2 is usually card clocks.

your turn theoldtimer
theoldtime and equinox1, you guys are both bottlenecked by your cpu. Remember how macci SF3D and Sampsa ran their system with 2x 4870x2? Even at 6GHz putting the cards on cold barely helped. The system was still bottlenecked by the cpu!
What i'm trying to say, when you're on the edge of stability you'd better sacrifice some card clocks instead of cpu clocks. ;)
Preety much, sacrifice some ram clocks to, slamming ram causes cpu to be less stable and really get you no where point wise......Quote:

thanks for the info chew and zeus,i actually was getting ready to reload os tonight so i will try vista.
Great result Chew* ... I'm sitting at 32K with 2 cards. Could not do 5.6Ghz stable with the two cards, but I think it was my pot not really pulling in the cold as fast as the CPU heat it up....or the chip not being that great. Anyways. Great result.
Yah I have been using Aarons pot from ln2cooling.com exclusively as of late......I am consistently hitting about 50 mhz higher on all of my chips with it and noting colder temps of CPU via temps delta.Quote:

Thanx for the tip. And sorry for all the questions, but how would you fit it to the IHS. I mean I tape the probe to the pot.
Use eraser to hold probe against IHS or drill a small hole in IHS ;)Quote:

Your score probably went up from going from the 1:4 to the 3:10 divider, plus the extra cpu power.
The 1:4 is slow compared to the 3:10, even when you keep memclocks/timings the same.
Nice score btw.
