man am i glad i did not buy a 965
Great score and congrats with the WR but i have a quistion wy dont you oc the gfx cards more mine HD4870X2 does easealy 900+ cores and 1100+ mem on water
Im sure the CPU is spreading its legs more......
Breaking new ground here :D Can a D0 Nehalem put the bottleneck back to GPU??
Great results Fugger. I'm always excited to see a new stepping with significant improvements.
Congratz dude, just saw it at FM. You got your wing-mans name wrong in the project title though :D
So now we have an apples to apples comparison with the phenom 05 score VS Nehalem with the good driver? Did they even use the good driver? So now this is the overall AND official world record or no?
Thanks everyone, we put a lot of time into pushing 05 way up last night and plan to re-focus on 03 and 06 in a day or two.
Sampsa, DDR3?? significant improvement over DDR2?
I wont be bored, more new coming up. :D
Dino's I am the first to show, others will pop up soon as there are more in the wild.
I could have easily done 47k on my other c0.
You ask me? :)
I think it is as fun as it can be for anyone chasing wr's.
Regardless of "funding", "contacts", skills.. etc..etc.
Of course, in any competitions where hardware is involved it helps alot to have access to the best hardware.
If you do not have that, you will not set any world records. (Everything else equal).
If there are stringent rules, classes.. there could be another setting.
SB, SS, WRC, Pro-Stock? As in hardware-benching classes? :D
Personally I enjoy reading about benching and trying to make the best out of any "rig" I am working on.
That is: "Compete" with myself.
Congratulations guys , sick score. Keep pushing it :clap:
it's nothing against you charles or anyone else for that matter.
it's just not been the case (as far as i recall) that we are claiming W.R.s on unreleased hardware
you know about this as well as you went out of your way to point out to me in Taiwan that Intel SSD drives you were using for W.R.s in final stages of competition are readily available at newegg to purchase which is fair enough...not that i really saw that as an issue..... new gen CPU or GFX different story
i thought that GFX guys used to wait till NDA is up and it's official announced and out for this kinda of claim.....i guess CPU is the other important one here...rest who cares...... if sampsa posted and claimed a W.R. on a DDR3 based AMD CPU i would say the same thing
Unleash that beast Fugger :)
My thinking is that records are records.
I had this discussion before and used this analogy;
The standing track record at Talledega raceway is owned by Mercedes Benz with their factory one of a kind C-111.
You and I can't buy it no matter how much money we have but the record stands.
IBM I beleive holds the record with their Blue Genie as the top supercomputer.. Also something that is unbuyable.
The approved driver issue I understand but hardware is different and as Charles mentioned, there are others that have these chips.
guess i jumped the gun if others are also benching these
that means we will see serious competition in the next few weeks?!
lets see some 5.5GHz+ AMD ownage lol
Yes there are other chips out there now, I took advantage of the timing gap. It also helps to have good cooling.
Very nice jump start to a new series Fugger and Mike. My hats off to you guys :up:
Nice Fugger. Looking forward to i7 920 DO results as well.
I am not sure if i missed it but is the QPI the same as the 965? 6.4?
