Love the PCMark05 Steve! :up:
Yeah man, I gotta say I have 3 Uncles (well 2 actually) and its kinda ironic because my favorite uncle is not even related to me and he never ceases to amaze.. We're talking about you Steve. Between uncle steve and uncle fester I have 4 uncles. But uncle steve is the one that can truly pull off pc mark records. :clap: steve just ask fugger to change your login to "uncle steve". Im surprised it hasn't happened by now.Quote:

I dont even know how the lsi will play on this board. my past experience with amd chipset has set the pci x16 to only recognize gfx cards. should I take each m4 off and plug in off the board and secure erase or can I just go straight in and reinstall windows over that past intel win install?
you too good stevo!
the board infront of me is tempting me to run it under cold lol, ddr2 love? :D
Honda what are you working with?Quote:

Good job!
But... are you using a book as a motherboard stand? Could have at least picked something worthless, like a phone book (they're a bit softer and make better mobo stands) :D
Good morning Mr. Trans am,
You can call me uncle just don't call me late for dinner!
For me, in pcm05 seems like 8x vga only impacts graphics memory and even then only at high cpu clocks and with 6970, ymmv though.
For pcm05, don't forget to limit your xpstartup to under 220. Many different ways to do this, lately I have been using iometer through a .bat. Use the 2004 version of iometer so you can adjust and save your config file, set the test to run for 20-25s, use 32MB seq read, 1 per worker and add/remove workers to get just below 220. :)
oh man. I forgot that windows xp startup. I was tearing my hair out with paul one night for an hour trying to get it just right.Quote:

Im gonna blame Don_Dan for ddr2 mess lol
**btw Don_Dan, I'm using your avatar for this :D
im wondering if i should go all out on ddr1, my energy is dwindling down...
ddr400 cl1.5 rams are sweet. but i don't think the motherboard will be prepped in time.
Team.XS FTW :D

Nice work Honda! You put any vaseline in the ram slots?
nope just eraser lol, lots of eraser. just enough to seal the dimm 3 empty dimm slots. it was a 15minute bench if its wet, its wet. it will dry soon.
ddr1 clockin
20% overclock lol, 200fsb x 1.2 = 239.5 lmao
last place in the competition lol.

Hondacity in particular is going crazy in this month's HOC. 300MHz CL2 and almost 800MHz CL4 validations. Just... fb.me/TDxEYTT4
Asus P4C800, sweeeeet board!
Cpu Vcore-Vdroop mod helped alot. 1.66v would drop to 1.54v, modded 1.7 was rock stable. Cold also stabilized it. So I had insurance with the subzero cpu.
Vdimm mod, almost went messy, I covered(heatsink) the mosfet which had the read point. Good thing pin1 on the 184pin was available for read point.
Corsair ddr1 was a 512 double sided rams...was for amd, didn't scale well with the voltage.
Geil One sticks were 256mb, they were unused from the seller. Super Rams :D
Another note:
Stock fsb is 200, using setfsb inside windows to nudge that to 201 is impossible
Setting fsb to 201 in bios then using setfsb for 202-305fsb is then possible. Totally freaky: 201fsb jump to 290fsb is cake :D
Two days benching two different platforms with XS mods forums. I love this forum
Good morning Mr. Honda -

GMan thanks too bro :D
I can do stage 2-5-6-7
no amd for stage 1
no clarkdale for stage 4
what is pcmark7? :P
anybody else interested? if not this comp is boring lol
I am, but we're not teammates in this :D
indeed but it seems the usa benchers aren't interested :/
i'll bench for poland lol
Says who?
Someone buy my lightning 260 and 275s for 200 stage
ah so you're our stage1 guy wooooooo
i already have a 280/285 combo...
patch could do the 275s
i hope patch gets the bd, and uses his secret sli monster rig lol
I haven't benched pcmark7 yet but I will give it a try.
PCMark 7 is to boring =(Quote:

e8600 is all i have...
I see that two GTX 285 Classifieds have been bought in FS section... looks like someone is gearing up for the Unigine stage :P
may the highest memory for unigine wins :D
calling US guys we neeeeed clarkbars for stage 1 and more hardware for the other stages. on air/watter clarkbars can do 5ghz and that will at least fill the 5 submission requirement and help out the average.
we have US guys from these teams, if you're not on the list please say so.
-OverclockingAlliance
-Pure
-Overclock.net
-OCForums
-NinjaLane
-411 OverKill
-Classy Platforms
We'd love&appreciate the US guys particidominate in the HWBOT Country Cup 2011
pm me bout the cup.
peace and love wtf
HC
Goooooooooooooooooooooo Germany!!! :YIPPIE:
Good luck to Mexico, Poland and the US as well! :up:
benching for country cup stage1 was fun, this will be tough though hahahha
with the amd-3dm11 stage, I only have one 580 and i don't have amd lol. other countries have 4 or more 580s from their sponsors. lol
I commend Redmax for Teaming the country, dieseldog also from ninjalane, v2-v3 and hpnotiq benchin from the asusrog team. and redwoodz from OCN.
woooooo!
I'm sure US of A can pool four 580's and a fast AMD CPU :) Distances might be a problem though. It's all about teamwork guys - for stage 1 we either bought or borrowed one another around 80% of the hardware used.
nice team work from the polish guys especially that 799 bomb :D
yeah we're pretty spread out... redmax is 4 hours away south of me, v2-v3 is 4 hours east of me.
lots of subzero guys in the usa, some concentrated on the nov challenge. I really wish more would bench for the other stages. if we're lucky we get 7pts, 1pt for each stage...lol
I'll just max out my 280 reference, benching for fun now. hopefully i get the coldbug free bios. but i'm not that lucky..lol
its a struggle, no pain, no gain
What you mean no CB bios? My 280 has no CB/CBB of any kind. Found that one day when I forgot to attach the temp probe to my Tek-9 and decided to bench anyway :P
hahahah no probe, you are lucky,, i remember mine throttles past -70c
but that gpu died... i have another one.. maybe i should remove my probe too..hahhaha
Congrats to Poland for winning the first stage of the Country Cup! :up:
Nice work as well from the USA for getting the 5 scores that are needed. Poor showing from Germany again. Only one score for the first stage. :shakes:
Check out SteveRo's first PCMark05 on AMD - the new 3x core WR! :clap:
good to know germany didn't sandbag, i respect that...but yeah 1sub was sorta surprising..
stevero and amd: yehey!!!
Thanks guys - pushing the fx-8150 now - much tougher going against the intel dual chip sr-71's!
sick pcmark05 as usual mr SteveRoQuote:

I think its because I enabled to 4 cores. you only enabled 3. what is your score with 4 cores enabled?
I put my bulldozer rig on ebay and reverting to my xeon 3540. the vid encoding and games are taking much longer. I was going to insulate it and see what I could do but Ive played with it for a month on air and I figured I should sell it while its still virgin. have fun with it on cold but as a 24/7 vid editing and gaming rig it was a huge step down. even my raid hdd benched have suffered. good luck.
Interest in the competition is kinda low. :shrug:Quote:

Not sure if that's true on AMD yet but it was true - across the board for intel.
Good work on your new Bulldozer score, Steve. You almost caught Hybridchiller in the 8x ranking. :up:
Was 7-9-7 at 923MHz on the RAM really necessary? Aren't you using the 2000C7 kit?
Put some LN2 on that CPU Steve and up them ram and NB speeds and take spot 1 !
^^ Thanks guys, I did up the ram some, need to work some more on the NB speeds maybe. I think if I take the time to set up better storage that will also help. Right now all I am running is 3x C300/64s - same partition for all tests, With a little more work - I'm pretty sure I can get more out of HDD general usage at least.

Nice work! :)
I noticed someone stole your 1x WR, I'm looking forward to your Sempron tests! ;)
I will post a Sempron score this afternoon :)
SteveRo single-handedly beat team.shrimps :D
??????????? what are you talking bout Willis ?
bruce willis? is from belgium? :P
from Wikipedia :
Bruce Willis, born in Bruxelles, capital city from Belgium. Son of Marie van Genechten (be) and sir Hannibal Willis (USA)...
nice info bits
SteveRo beats Bruce Willis!:p:
here's a cool podcast from team.ninjlane basically from dennis aka redmax. they're talking bout the hwbot country cup 2011.
these guys hail from boise / meredian Idaho.
http://www.ninjalane.com/articles/po...nli_podcast_12
Stage 5 is gone for me and v2-v3, unless some guys would join. Both cards modded to the extent. cap mods, ocp mods, heatsink(hacksaw) mods. vmem mods. These cards are prepped for their last days of benching. Due to circumstances we won't get the necessary scores for stage 5.
There are two more stages where we could join. Hopefully in the pcmark stage SteveRo joins in. wprime 8core is yours SteveRo/beepbeep with your 8150s.
This week I'll be in Cary, NC. Hopefully Ill finish my exams and I'll be back benching the last remaining stages. No update from til then.
@Don_Dan when are you graduating? you've been studying too much bro.
I was planning on playing in the pcmark stage, I will read up.
edit - the pcm7 stage does not close until 30Dec. lots of time - which set up should I do? go for max score?
If max score is the goal - best would be either x58/980 or SB/2600?
Does anyone know if pcm7 uses all threads? Pcmv uses all 12 in x58.
Probably best would be 980 on the Giga X58-OC? :)
I'll have to look into it. I've never had pcm7 in my units. These will be a quick few days, Holidays bro! We'll need you to make the highest score. since this will be averaged. I'm not sure which will score more though.
Can you please run wprime1024 on your bulldozer too? :D
pcmark7 stage - "cpu defined my socket"

Also - PM me your email.
Guys - question - do the rules say it needs to be a different member for each of the four submits?
edit - Mr. Honda - copy that - wpr1024 on BD - will do.
I don't have great expectations as I probably can't go much over 6ghz with only cascade.
1. You need three, not four submissions
2. Only top three submissions by different members count for the average. Example:
SteveRo - 99999 pts on LGA2011 <- this counts
SteveRo - 98000 pts on LGA1366
someguy - 10000 pts on LGA1366 <-this counts
someguy - 9000 pts on LGA1155
somedude - 333 pts on LGA775 <-this counts
So it's best to 1) pool your storage resources (you can share the storage setup) 2) assign platforms to members, so that you don't do unecessary runs that won't go into the average anyway.
OK i think I understand, if Loudsilence does s2011, I do s1366 we need at least one more - either s1155 or 1156 right?
If no one objects.. i can try for 1155.
I haven't benched it before so i am very inexperienced lol.
I need to buy storage equipment asap though... recommendations?
^^ you have pm
OK so the requirements for pcm7 country cup -
Limitations
A verification link is required.
A verification screenshot is required.
Please attach a picture of your overclocking rig.
Must use competition background: download - http://hwbot.org/blog/wp-content//background2.png
Scoring method: top 3 average using unique hardware :)
Guys, is it "unique" enough for one guy to do 2600k then another does 2500K?
^^ found it - "unique" set up in defined by socket! so for pcm7 we need 3 different sockets -
Loudsilence does s2011, I do s1366 and badatgames does s1155 - we got it.
Of course anyone else that wants to give it a go please do!! :):)
I love the team.work!

i really wish i have a local porsche dealership in my area, and a kingpincooling dealership too hahahhaha

noooo.. he knocked like once and left :(
isn't there suppose to be at least a minute wait then leave.. geez
I sent it by usps, I know my local usps delivers also on saturday.
for ups, if they miss me, their truck is usually at the depot by 5pm. and i just claim it between 5-6pm which is so convenient.
crispy creme? we have that here. they don't have the sugarfree donuts though. i want the dunkin donuts that are sugar free lol
about the pot. saving on international shipping is huge lol.
Great, you broke it. :clap: :rofl:Quote:

just tearin it up with pcmark!!
just awesome job
^^ Thanks guys!
I've been quick with new tweaks and strong storage.
Others will follow and close the gap soon enough.
I still don't have web page rendering completely worked out. :rolleyes:
After an error in the Team Power Points calculation has been fixed, XtremeLabs.org is only 200 points in front of us. Keep pushing guys! :up:
I forgot yesterday I wanted to say Merry Christmas to all of you crazed benchers.
