hey honda, did you quit extreme overclocking?
Took at stab at DDR2 memory OC.
616.7 MHz -CPU-Z validation was made with 1.61.1, can't submit it.
Could have done worse, max DDR voltage 2.2v
I tried to do it again on air, no worky
If setfsb worked I could probably have done about 630. I really should bin my DDR2 and just keep the best. :(
I would be as well, they are oh so nice:yepp:Quote:

@mafio its just temporary man:D
You guys know many tips for BD DRAM frequency?
I forgot how to make CL10/CL11-13-13 work, never POSTs.
Llano test firing #1: partial failure.
Machine works, but my 3870K seems to have lost one memory channel :( Further tests with a new chip tomorrow.
glad to hear your benching, unfortunately that sucks about the 3870K hope you get it sorted it out in time.Quote:

Massman has posted a new article, please make up your mind on this one.
Have you sent it to Franck?Quote:

Unfortunately not, sorry. ZenEffect has DDR3 covered already imho, try to get a submission of the RDRAM rig! :DQuote:

Haha I want to do DDR3 for myself too.
I think BD can go higher than Ivy ever will for memory clock if done right.
Yeah, I know it's probably the same for your DDR2 validation! :DQuote:

You're right, the absolute best can only be reached on Bulldozer/Llano, but the average scores seem to be better on IB.
I'll do that. :)
Considering my best BD DDR3 clock was done on air cooling, I think I can do better :p:
I found the ace up my sleeve for GeForce IGP, already matched my old 700/1850 score with just 550/1600 :)
EDIT:
Had weird behavior under LN2...could boot and run GT1 of 06 down to -130, but after GT1 it would freeze on "Please Wait: Scanning System Configuration" and then BSOD after a minute or two.
ZenEffect's score was done on air cooling as well! :p:
Were you able to improve your score?
Well no, because on air I couldn't do more than match my previous score with tinfoil pot on LN2, this time I put my KP Venom pot on top of the NB heatsink and the NB was frozen down to -100c
I tried for a long time to get it to work, even tried warming to -40c before I ran out of LN2 and gave up
I switched to MSI board and now my 3870K is completely dead, will not complete any benchmark at stock speed :(
I thought I have another Llano, but no, that was my last one. Unless I can borrow one from a shop tomorrow, I won't have a score :(
I'm glad Yeroon was able to submit a score...
What is the board/CPU doing?
Not good. :(Quote:

That's too bad, I'm glad Yeroon was able to make a submission! :yepp:Quote:

Want to mention that my GeForce board may be dead now, it booted up but the video was sort of bad, (doing dark) maybe I have a bad cable but I doubt it. I think it is something wrong with the RAMDAC in the NB...it wasn't any kind of digital corruption. I messed with it some and now I can't get it to post again.
Gonna throw it in the oven for a bit @ 60c...
drove all the way to the city (1.5 hours) and all local Airgas's were out of LN2 except the last place and they ended up giving me half a dewar for free lol.
will be driving back tomorrow to fill up since they will have 3 160L delivered, on a good note I might have gotten my price for LN2 lowered to 0.50c:up:
also any XS team members can pm me and I will share my account #/info so you can get a good deal on LN2 if your local distributor is trying to f(l)uck you.
Always call ahead of time :p:
There is a horse track near my distributor, and thought they get 3 160L tanks a week sometimes they run out :(
Picked up 25L today for pcm05 starting tomorrow - will run w/o the text edit tweak unless someone comes up with it before tomorrow am! :)
Just to be sure - is this the background for pcm05 submissions! all the same background for all submissions?? :shrug: :shrug:
"The background
Required background for all submissions: link.
http://hwbot.org/blog/wp-content//hwbot-team-cup.jpg "
I guess I was expecting a unique background to make sure we didn't start until 01August??
Were you able to fix it? Did you check for physical damage?Quote:

it is probably because they transport mucho amounts of horse semen lolQuote:

Well, (past) time to order a kingpin NB-2 I guess. Anyway, it was fun :p:
Going to submit all GeForce 8200 scores now, should bump team points.
Then I'll fix up my 890FX board (don't want to RMA) and run 965 BE 2D tonight. Still 15-20L LN2 left.
Yeah. Forgot to mention though on HWBOT that when it was running again, though, only one of my sticks was detected...Quote:

hmmm 2933 memory divider works :up:
1500 yet? nope. still on air if you can even call it that. i have the pot strapped on there, with a fan blowing on it... but nothing inside the pot.
