well done !
really great work there Gaz :toast:
Congrats GazC :toast:
Really impressed by your gpu-clock. What roomtemp? These X850XT overclocks very good without temps bellow zero. Sorry to say that my X850 is retired for now, I'm curretly giving SLI a try. I say go for 40k now! :D
Very well said Macci!
It's stimulating and fun to tweak a system with limited cooling to reach a sertain personal goal. Not to mention that it leaves a very good starting point for Dry Ice or LN2, where your time is limited.
GazC what waterblock did you use for your CPU?
Thanks Kinc,:toast:
I don't know what the room temp was, but I know my feet were cold! I'm guessing it was somwhere around 13-15 degrees C
@ PULSAR, I'm using a DD RBX Block. The CPU is naked.
I agree, theres definatly some people out there grasping for anything they can say is a WR... I can't say how many times I seen a post claim a WR in some weird catagory no one ever would bother to mess with like...Quote:

the ORB is full of these ridiculous wimpy attempts at anything they can claim to be a WR. so your definatly right, theres alot that are just not World Records, so much, as just "no ones interested in benchmarking with that set up"
like I am sure some guy out there right now is claiming to have the ATI 7500 AGP record, but I am sure, you could put that card in a FX55 Machine at 3.5 ghz and destory that record, but is it really a record, or just that theres no one really interested in benchmarking with it, so you put it in a ridiculous machine and take it without any effort??
in my opinion, theres only 3 records for 3dmark worth watching.
highest watercooled, highest air cooled, highest anything cooled. :D

I think its GREAT that a lot of people are still enjoying with the "old" hardware. not everybody have the cash for highend gear, witch is undetstandble. In that sense i think its great to start challanges (like Juliettes 600xt challenge) and stuff. But if we all start saying this is new WR for FX5200 etc, the fun part about WR´s kind of go away. :)
ther should be 1 WR for water. 1 for air, and a 1 for cascade and all other kinds of cooling:) Just my opinion!!! :)
Air and anything goes is fine by me, but things in between are more difficult to judge. Now we have SLi and none Sli WR's as well.
I guess it depends on how far down you want to split. You can have WC, or chilled WC, or WC using glycol/methanol at -33C like I use( no water whatsoever ). Who would have the WR then ?
However, nice score anyhow !

PS Note even air is artificially propelled, so the most "natural" would be passively cooled WR and then anything goes.
I like seeing top records for specific videocards, and such, but once people start nitpicking to find a way to claim somethings a record... then it's just where I think "ok, yeah... whatever dude..."
I am just waiting till I hear something like...
"fastest 2.1 ghz P4, with RD Ram, with a 9700 Non Pro, on Windows ME, with a green Case, and using a thermal take heatsink"
cause, I see some just ridiculous record claims when looking for scores on the ORB sometimes.
fastest 5800 ultra score, cool.
fastest 5800 ultra score, in a Celeron PC, with Single channel ram.... yeah, ok dude, whatever...
............benched on a Sunday, during a full moon, etc, etc. :lol:Quote:

I think only class records are worth considering, i.e. x600 series :rolleyes:, as cooling categories there are too many of. Air cooled cpu, watercooled VGA phase-change cooled chipset etc.
x600 :D
No offence to GazC. Great OC there with watercooling and this maybe wasn't the right thread to discuss about this WR mania. What I meant was exactly what macci said in the last paragraph.Quote:

Hardest thing is to get the hw not the benching :D
heheh just what I feel for a long time now.... :DQuote:

Not to take any credit away from threadstarter of course!
For me the WRs are:Quote:

Add your benchmark and the best result here
Others are good efforts :)
And I don't want to take any credit away from anyone either.
Bur for macci. anything deemed WR is good enough for me :D
I think i finaly Got that WR now GazC :D took me some time :D

C'mon legends...not all of us make millions a year and have a gazillion cascades sitting in our garages....but that doesn't mean we don't put effort into benching and doesn't mean we love it any less than you guys. GazC's score was definitely noteworthy, it's something I believe he should be commended for and should take pride in. Claiming WR's in categories you might call bogus is a way for the rest of us to have some fun.
