Left off at nearly 98k now with 1300fps nature and 5330mhz on cpu.
Waiting on more ln2 now atm to finish 3dbenching the setup this week.
I also have runs done at 5290mhz for 03' and 5300mhz+ for 05' :), I'd post the updates but I'd like to see what the other guys get first.
Realistically...100K could fall this coming week?
A WR is a WR, but a landmark like this is something else, I sense that a few guys will be having long days and sleepless nights!
Cmon kingpin, get thorugh. Don't think how would you feel if someone else took this benchmark now that you've come so close :) The public demands result, so produce them! :D :toast:
I am almost sure that going to be you Vince to break the 100K barrier and you sure deserve it because you have a huge amount of talent and an unbeatable sponsor :)Quote:

So I decide not risking the 2 8800GTX's that I have pay by my own pocket and cost me lot of money.
Maybe it will be possible with the 3 stager (-120º), but it’s too much money involved and Ricky simple can't afford to buy all the new parts that are necessary from scratch (he is slowly trying to get the 3 necessary rotary compressors from AC devices).
As I said to Ricky, he time of “amateurism” in top 3D benching real ends.
When we break the 40K barrier (with my FX-53 and a single X800), still was possible for a mere amateur to achieve top tiers results, now with all hardware and cooling involved simply it is not. We have to face the reality.
Me and Ricky will continue to bench in 3D mark 01 (for us the best ever bench), but is almost certain that will be k|ngp|n with their vast amount of talent and resources that breaks the 100K barrier.
:toast:
Don`t stop Pedro, we know you can do it ;)
May be you can send him dual 8800GTX and 1000$ for the cascade and he will do it for youQuote:

Haha Hi Sampsa, we welcome you back to the fray :D
I wish I had gone round the world when I was younger. I'll be doing on a cruise and chatting up the 70 year old ladies by the time i get to do it :(
It will be good to see Sampsa back again.
Pedro, why not swap to LN2 ? Surely that is cheaper than triple cascade ?
Creeping towards 100k, it definitely ios THE BIG ONE. We seem to have been chasing it since GF4 was still posting here, I hope he does not miss it when it happens.
Regards
Andy
GF4?? You guys were too optimistic :DQuote:

Europe/UK is at a double disadvantage in top-end benching because of the prices we pay..I wish there was something we could do.

so you can get an idea of how much more we have to pay for same hardware around here
even if you have got a sponsor in Europe (like me) it`s still difficult to get all this :(
Sponsor = latest hardware + permission to push it to the edge ?Quote:

massman,
my sponsor (one of the biggest PC shops in Latvia) = up to 50% discount on hardware + handpick option :D
You're one lucky guy, here in Belgium we only have the handpick advantage ;)Quote:
