So, you jumped on a conclusion too quickly :D It is slower than XP, but I can't say it like that. Someone might wipe all his W7 installations and be angry to me later :rofl:

Well.. try it and you will see it yourself :up:

Smiling* .., always like a good conversation :) .., birth of a new OS is always good news (if its not a total failure..,) it will bring so many more to this fast growing sport...
W7 might just fit perfectly for coming adventures and also bring so many more to join.

I have great respect for your skill and experience SF3D.., so.., no offense... ;)

So.., be safe and say hello from me to rest of SF OC crew! :)

Nice looking runs! Its good to see this kind of efficiency in 06 from AMD.

Have you tried the software based voltage mod for VT11xx pwm? Its comfirmed working on 4850/4870 but Im not sure about 4870x2. Might help you get the extra mhz needed for 06 :)

What mod are you referring too?

I have all the mods needed, if I like to do them :) I can go up to 1.65V with LN2.

I just didn't want to have any troubles, so I used safe values.

We will see better scores later and with more VGA clocks. Those are only helping in GT3, so it's not really important at this point.

SoF- Try 8.12 drivers. Those installed without problems.

i have high hopes for the 9.1s, as the delay drags on and on for the drivers to be released. hopefully, they will make w7 work properly for me (or at least well enough to get some benches in) if not you will see a bunch of xp and server2008 runs very soon.

This one

My Phenom II X3 AM3 shows stepping 2 in CPU-Z.

Let her rip Sampsa, we need to see what is shows in benchmarks :up:

Great benching SF3D, you are on fire lately ! :up:

Sampsa, we wanna see some first results quick mate ! :)

This AM3 945 shows stepping 1

Yes, but that was CPU produced in week 0825. Way older than most of the samples we've seen from Phenom II.
I think lower end AM3 will still be Stepping 2 for some time, but X4 950 will be Stepping 3 or in other words RB-C3.

According to my latest info many of the early Phenom II X4 engineering samples (earlier than press samples) are actually AM3 parts so yes, this CPU might be as well.

SF3D counted the pins, 940. (940 contacts for AM2 processors, where 938 contacts for AM3 processors).

This thread is all about AMD 3DM06 score. Why do we have to talk about some CPU steppings here. We have used this CPU first time in December and nobody didn't even mention it back then :)

If someone have some real AM3 CPU's and is feeling bad, cause can't post results, why should I care.. There is NDA for those results and I can't post anything either.

I though this preliminary score would have made different kind of conversation, but no.

Sorry about my reply made some troubles. You are right. This thread talked about 3D06 score, not for what AM3 stepping you have.

Great 06 score on AMD you have.

Great score! 33k in sight...
