how does one get a 4.250 first iteration, crazyness ;)
first iteration doesnt mean anything, well it could mean someone started at higher clock but i doubt anyone would do that here, we're benching for fun
ive seen it start at that also a few times but i prefer it starting slower hehe
Cheapseats final loop is waza and mem timings
i read discussions about tweaks, OSes etc. Hehehehe if it was only that simple. Wait till you start testing a :banana::banana::banana::banana:load of OSes and other parameters and then come back with your head itching
-updated
*angholic, nice to see germans grabbing #2 :D we appreciate your frozen pics :D
*c-n and dumo .... airsanity!
*team.pure in the house, Deux welcome aboard
about OS's... its alot of chasing the dragon. doesnt matter what, someone will always be faster in pi with same clocks and similar timings. in the end one would think the only variable is the OS. my advice here is this, dont act like a tweaker when you are tweaking... you cant ever catch that dragon because once you do it will slip through your fingers once again. just use what you know works well and tune out your subs and waza. once that limit is reached, then go back to the OS for the finishing touches.
super sauce TW S2K3? meh, tried it... not much faster than a well tuned XP
ramdisk? slightly faster until waza is fine tuned. then gain is very minimal, mabye im doing it wrong? (not sarcastic, i actually question this)
maxmem? a specific value always worked best for me. over or under results in *slightly* slower scores... talking like .02 or so
stripped os? can make regular XP just as fast by disabling services... but if im disabling them anyways... why not just cut them out and make install go faster?
themes? .02 gain olive vs silver consistantly
keyboard vs mouse? i think it gains... though i havent havent tested in quite some time though. i get through setting up 32m faster using keyboard anyways. less thinking more doing.
in the end... the most gain is in bios, the least is in OS (excluding the basics like LSC, maxmem, etc). like 90/10. there is a gain, but is it worth the weeks of building testing rebuilding testing borking os starting over testing retesting....
if you know what you got works well, stick with it. there are alot of different ways to the finish line. you can blast through or finnesse your way in :)
Well I've lost myself with waza & consistency!!!! I see it makes a massive difference just cant work out what I'm doing wrong consistency wise.
These runs are with the same bios settings only thing different was the waza.....
In this run everything was the same as my .203 entry using RAMDisk like I mentioned to cheapseats.

In this run the only difference was waza..... looks like a crazy fast start then slows down!

memory timings (with bbse vs psc on air i got different typical values)
memory speed
wazza effect
whether results from previous runs got deleted or not
yap, it is all about the fun. if someone would change speed during a run, he needs the RogConnect Server running->impact on PP->need really more clock speeds to get gain->change speed during run-> distribution of loops would be different greater than a bad wazza effect.Quote:

just in case anyone would still have doubts, i could make another one re-running showing that ROG Connect was NOT involved. :yepp:
want more? :DQuote:

Crazy result Splave. Getting over my 6m 20s is getting impossible for me. Wazaa driving me nuts. :D
My first "good" score on this bench:

Lots of improvements to do yet, as i cant have XP on this computer :confused:
Manage to lower on my 24/7 settings

If i cant get decent score i might need another fast SSD.
Thx
yeah nice aristides, thats a proper efficiency at 28500 MB/s readQuote:
