x1800--->9700marks(default) at 3dmark05?

That's awesome Macci! Can you give it more volts on that cooling or not?

nice what a hack job on that heatsink :D 3010mhz at 1.872v vcore ?? or cpuz reading wrong vcore for that board ??

CPUZ needs glasses. :D

Macci, what's the distance between the holes?

A 6800/7800 mounting kit works for existing waterblocks....so whatever that distance is :D

Wow!!! :slobber: Near the 40K in '01 and near 11K '05 Air cooled :eek: :clap:
Incredible 463FPS in Nature with single card...with my 7800GTX i'm only at 282 :(

By far it isn't.

What the highest anyone reached except SLI ? (Aircooling)
What are temps on GPU ?
(Is that avril in bg?)

Just sick numbers congrats Macci i really want one of those cards for benching , now go ice for the real numbers ;)

[[]]

what are you especting for ice cold ?

In 2k5, it is ~11900 points with a mind whopping 800 mhz core on the 7800GTX.

Very nice scores macci, nice monitor too ;)

Must be very cool to adjust voltages without needing to do mods. Too bad it sounds like that will be for insiders only.

That will be solved i guess, i just hope it does not get locked in coming cards.
INQ talks about cards that was at Ibiza had a bug that would limit their overclocking and supposed to be fixed on cards that gets to stores.
You have any idea if the card you have has this bug ? (If its true)

Macci, under LN2 what could we expect from these cards?

1000mhz+ GPU clocks?

Mickey, wait for "final" results from Macci :)
Don't you want to see the score with 240+ MHz UTT, high HTT, highly clocked CPU ? :D

hey Mickey, how can you oc the card?

More great news! I wont have to change my mounting for gpu containers.

Jason, 215 was only cos I was running the CPU at default multi and just gave it some speed it would run stable (Vcore is 1.54 not 1.87 shown in the pics..). Also FSB makes next to no difference in Mark05 so why bother =) Once I have the time I will push things as far as they go. But yea 215 doesn't look that cool. :D
I have had this board and RAM at 270 2-2-2-5 5X HTT..

Using Mark2001 for card comparisons is maybe not the best idea. Basically only Nature is affected by the increased video speed. All the other tests are pretty much equal to X800XT scores. And that 38k+ run is far from good, basically just showing the Nature speed, no ACPI tweaks, no FSB, no system powah! =)

I'm thinking 11k+ 05 and 40k+ aircooled is not a problem.

:eek:

It's been a while since someone posted a screenie so soon after Macci's, MickeyMouse...I see some healthy competition is brewing :D

Perkam

Competition!! hUm!! I Like gonna make popcorn also :D keep them comin!! :toast:

I think 463Fps in Nature with single card it's impressive!!! :slobber:

There are NO BUGS. It was a programming issue with the overclocking tool...let's be clear and not start more false information. I've seen cards run 950+ MHz, so there is NO BUG.

Thx for clearing up that none of these cards have any bugs Gray :)

I was hoping Macci would go a few rounds with an XL...seeing as how that's the one ppl are going to be buying in the next few days/weeks.

Perkam

How many time for see the x1800xt in Europe?(Italy) :D
I want one of these!!!

Again let's clear up the misconceptions and false data.

Never has our chipset had a problem overclocking the HT bus. On the contrary, others ;) have problems even running 1GHz. We have many times demonstrated that over 1 GHz operation is easy. Macci, Fugger, Bigtoe and others will attest to that.

As for Texas, the problem there was the DDR interface. This was on Bullhead, our OEM reference board that was never designed for overclocking, and despite that ran extremely well except under phase. Texas was the first time that our boards were put under phase so it was a learning experience. We've since figured it all out and have demonstrated that Grouper and Halibut are both very phase friendly.

And as Macci will point out, he's running 270 2-2-2-5 at x5 HT multi. That's got to tell you something.

cards look great no doubts, but the ram UTT and so on that run at 250mhz stock and Macci that always pushes the 215mhz HT bus just looks bad, lol

Texas event same issue with the HT bus and ddr clocking?
Opp, Kingpin and tons of others said the same thing fsb/ht issues with some ATI boards.
Maybe Maccis still on the same old ATI chipset that could explain things, but I would like to know every angle and get answers for everything at this point after waiting so long and before I dop $700 for a x1800xt. ;)

On 2k1 I bet the X1800XT could do about 41000 - 42000 air cooled......... ;)
