That's what I like to see :D Keep kickin arse!

^^ 22g ceramique cyringe for 8 dollars. I have 3 :lol:
BTW, Kyle can you take a pic mid way? Just hit printscreen @ loop 11 or whatever and save it when you're done. Then close paint and take one of the finish. This way no one can say you ran one then the other ;)
Damn, I just ran at 3406 Dual 32M Stable. I will run again and take a pic half way through. Thanks for the advice. :p:
Nah it's the case I sold to originally NJkid32 :p Who lives with Reggie practically :)Quote:

I thought the one of the reasons for Pi Mod was the checksum validation. Here's one at Iteration 23 and Completed. I would've taken it at an earlier Iteration, but I was watching Stroker & Hoop. :D
Going to try to go higher. I think this FX is starting to run pretty well.
:slobber: try running a dedicated fully tweaked OS for pi and your times will be a lot better. Oh and internet explorer is bad ;)
Where can I rent one of these to play with for a week?
Give me a break I just installed this OS and I was happy breaking 24 minutes w/ one core.
What do you mean by a dedicated fully tweaked OS for pi? Thanks for giving me all this advice.

By dedicated OS I mean a 100% stripped down OS. No internet, no audio, no wallpaper or anything, classic windows theme, tweaked registry, minimal services. Just the OS /w essential parts, drivers, and bench apps :)
ahhh you beat me s7e9h3n. GJ lol
Hmmm....where'd you hear that? I thought my 8m was pretty good on 2k3 :p:Quote:

@ Kyle.....show us your tweaker settings. Times are unusually slow for that speed. For comparison, here's my FX55 (the one in my sig) on air:

Stephen look at all the crap he has open, and isn't he running ballistix? And his OS seems to be pretty much stock. You can't compare...
I'd say that even with the crap open and running dual instances, it shouldn't make up the stagger of >400mhz.....:)Quote:

Don't mind the processor speed I was just seeing if I could get it dual pi stable.
Let me know what you think stephen.
you've got an awesome FX60.....I bet it can dual prime at 3.35Ghz :D :D
I'll start dual prime tonight when I go to bed. Thanks Ben.
How's the Mushkin ram?
Just so you know, I wasn't trying to down-play your accomplishment whatsoever :toast:Quote:

I know you don't mean that in any negative way please don't think I was mad or anything. You know more than I do and any advice you can give me I am willing to take. If you would finish up your testing with that BH5. ;)
When I see your 57 numbers it makes me want to go get one. Maybe I should do a fresh install of windows. I have been gaming on this install w/ my 3700+ earlier so I'm sure that doesn't help.
If you're gonna do a fresh install, do one with win2k3 server. You'll need to find out how to optimize it so it can function as a workstation, but once you do, you'll find that is a much, much more stable OS for spi and overclocking in general (well at least in my opinion)Quote:

trrd = 0
twr = 2
twtr = 1
i haven't used 5b D, but my experience with a very similar micron IC that's the same size tells me that idle cycle limit 0 is best for clocking.. and generally provides best performance too ;)
and see how low you can get read preamble. you might be able to pull off 4.0ns
Switching from single core to dual core on the same install = bad. A friend of mine had some pretty irritating general instability from that, I'd say you're doing very well considering the circumstance. That said it's time to fix it. Here's a guide that shows how to trim of some of the extraneous features of 2k3, and make it generally less annoying to work with.Quote:

Temps on my single stage are a little worse than they should be though.
Any explanation on ACPI multiprocessor? I dont know why but it makes things hotter?
It's basically the "Ricky Tweak". Your single core processor is trying to assume the workload of a dual cpu machine. Therefore, it will rarely be in idle. The only way to really fix this is to repair the install of windows......Quote:
