6.5 multi doesn't work man.......:(

Uf....much hours testing theplatform on air, and I still ned to push some more. Anyway, I am getting close to the point where LN2 on the GPU should make it all interesting (not a winner, but at least a decent tweaked result). And ya, I know, GTX 260 is not good for this competition, and neither is i7, but it's fun to play with :D
http://forum.crazypc.ro/attachment.p...7&d=1241095055
insane LH and CL there man :shocked:
i7 looking good there lol
Yeah bro but I personally keep having problems. My team-mate, matose, is running a similar set-up but with a different GTX 260, a C0 and a Calssified instead of DFI. And he gets lower but more constant results, while mine vary very much from run to re-run. I have to sort this out... If I manage to hit 88k on air, then I will put LN2 on the GPU for a honorable result :)
Monstru , very interesting result:) your result with 1200fps nature and go arround 91k:cool: but must be gpu on LN2
you edited your post and mentioned it was a bugged run and its back on
so is it bugged or not
that LH looks like its been done at higher MHz lol its that good heheheh
amazing NB speed there as well from your chip mate :up:
dinos22 - It was a bugged CPU-Z mate, I opened and closed it for a few times and save a couple of results. But if we start doubting results when they're even far from being what they should, I can start video-taping my runs, just to be sure ;)
Brandybuck - of course, LN2 for the GPu is a must, but I'd rather maximize the system on air first :)
LH can really be impproved, as you can see, but CL is really moving around too much for my taste...Must tweak some more, before LN2 :)
http://forum.crazypc.ro/attachment.p...2&d=1241100283
Monstru , do you have 280 OR 285gtx ?:D
i'm not doubting ya mate
just wanted to hear what you meant there when you posted that
btw what was the last test you ran there in the first screen you posted? CL?
Brandybuck - I have GTX 280, GTX 285, GTX 295, 9800GX2 and HD4890. But it's more fun to play with the weakest of them all. I don't want to use the obvious combination (Rampage Extreme + E8600 + 4890). Anyway, after a LN2 run on this one, I will probably switch to somthing more powerfull, but I will try to get a good result without using 4890 :D
dinos - I know bro, I am teasing you. Now....just 117 points untill I declare myself happy with the air result. This is a great CL, but I had to run it a million times to get it.
In the first screenshot I re-runned DH after Nature (had some bad fps initially) and then I runned CL. So last test was CL. In this screenshot, also Cl was last, run >10 times, after Nature.
http://forum.crazypc.ro/attachment.p...3&d=1241101677
The difference between the 2 screenshots is HT off :)
so you jumpted from 1104FPS on CL to 1218
:banana::banana::banana::banana: me dead
how many times did you run it....150+ :rofl::D
btw also try testing dual channel RAM on i7
i definitely know 3DMARK03 runs faster from some brief testing a few months ago
why do you say that REX+E8600+4890 is the obvious combination
i'm not sure you'll get anywhere near 4870 numbers let alone what you are showing with GTX260 :shrug:
I also validated the last run :)
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9491148
No bro, with HT ON the CL would vary between 1055 and 1218!!! That is why I said I had huge variations. At first, it would go like this: 1st run 1060, 2nd run 1180, 3rd run 1055, 4th run 1196 and so on. After I turned HT OFF that kind of behaviour dissapeared and now it goes from 1180 to 1220, and with a lucky run of 1222.
Thank you for the advice related to the ram configuration, I will give it a try. Regarding REX + E8600, it's obvios that if you can make it work with a low x.5 multi and something >650 FSB, we are all dead, and the Nature is much better on E8600. And the 4890...well....it is slower then 4870 but it it easier to take it that high :)
Now I don't think that this GTX 260 of mine is really something worth looking at. I think that there are some few tricks in I7's hat, and that makes it look so good. Maybe I will try with GTX 280 after a few days and see if I am right or not :)
BenchZowner - that I will try to find out with hopefully >900MHz GPU on the GTX 260 :)
IF you can get the nature with that up it's game over for all the Wolfdale ballers. :p:
Did anyone talked about 4890???this is for the greek bros!!!On dice that card gave me a hard time but in the end it became fun!!!Now i must concentrate to get a bit higher lobby low and maybe get some ln2 so i can bench with high clocked memory too.:rolleyes:

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9491182
Just 3 points from hipro's score:D That's a very nice score bro:D Keep it up!
Imagine 2 of these cards in CF......
Am I seeing 1235MHz GPU Core clock there ?!
F*
@ Monstru
With my GTX260 on stock air core 782 = 1087fps (this is using 8600+RE)
My first run cold with the core @ 908 (I think) = 1210fps
Your core is only 730 and your at 1041fps.
If you take a gain like mine, you may well get close to 1200.
Wish I could get my NB speed anywhere near yours, then I'd try myself.
But no hope of that.
lol interesting stuff boys
looks like there might be some nehalem submissions soon lol judging by these scores
WOW great card there and great tweaking mate :up::up::up::up:
you are lucky you can get your RAM that high on the card LOL......mine one start :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:ing out down from1200 around 1064MHz core :rofl: but subzero will help i guess a touch :D
Thanx a lot guys.Benchzowner special thanx to you for your cut down xp!!!!
Dinos22:definately subzero temps on the core help a lot to get the ram run even higher!!!Now i have just to find a sweetspot for lobbylow to get about 3-4fps.And then maybe jump to i7...who knows...:rolleyes:
yeah i saw the change with stock volts and when i started improving temps and volts the RAM was able to stay at 1200 up to 1064 and then a straught green screen at 1066 :rofl:....i've tried bigger jumps but it didnt do anything
hey what volts and temps did you run
for extra FPS on LL up your NB volts and run PL8 straight from bios
that should give you more
but you are already at 500 which is definitely better than my PL9 or PL8 runs at lower GPU clocks
@crustytheclown
Man,you really did a great score bro.......Pretty amazing....Waiting to see what these cards do under ln2.Logic says that with a frozen pcb mem will scale even more.Again congrats
Crustytheclown - really great clocks on that 4890 man!!!
Gautam - thank you. The key word there is IF. Anyway, there are tests where I get very good FPS compared to Wolfdale, but there are tests where I get lower FPS, so....the I don't think that Wolfdale sang it's final song yet :)
Deanzo - thx bro, you inspired me to used GTX260 after I have seen your score. I hope I can get the nature at 1200, then I am satisfied knowing that I will not be far from hipro's 93k or whatever he will throw in the game in the end :D
well; now you are definitely making me slap SS on the card :D :D
would be nice if i could find a D0 chip locally too heh
Of course you realise that my last few screenshots with Nehalem ar part of a devious strategy to misled everyone while I sneak with E8600 from the shadows and really pull out a nice score :D:D:D
I will test with 4890 on LN2 at weekend:D
why is nehalem soooo much weaker in nature :s
I can't find any reasonable explanation on that subject Dino.
If Nature was where it should be on i7 we would be starring at 135k for sure :(
Not only in Nature....Overall it gives great performance in 2k6 and Vantage, but if you look at the graphic tests clock/clock...something is not perfect there....
http://lab501.ro/wp-content/uploads/...6-graphics.png
http://lab501.ro/wp-content/uploads/...antage-gpu.png
There are very small differences, but i7 should be better, not the same or a little bit worse (in these tests).
Ah you are so full of it. Hipro + any platform = the winning combination :DQuote:

okies
just ordered one online

i hope its good :D

finally get to torture these corsair 2000GTs :ocau::devil:
Very nice dinos, I am sure you will have impressive results! Now it's time for me to torture these AData DDR3 1600+ 6GB :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
I did some initial tests with C0 965 and REII.The problem with my 4890 is both dragothics and Nature.But they may got affected but low bclk(155).I'll do some more tests over the week to see if i can solve that out.As for the nature problem i can solve it with 1300Mhz core!!!!:hehe:
Hi
I'm back with another green monster...
Result could be better if the card would run higher on air and if I could tweak like some of u guys..
http://images.netbag.hu/20090503/03203387883.JPG
ORB link:
http://service.futuremark.com/result...6&resultType=6
It takes me about 4 and a half hour to get this result.. I get a lot of experience in 2k1 tweaking. It's great to compete against you guys :up:
subaru
subaruwrc, nice, but You can get 400+p with better CH and N :)
Being at my granpas village i can't do anything,just post from a laptop......
i hope soon and i7 rig will be available to so i can kick crustytheclowns ass!:hehe:
With the 1200nature cap o single core cards ATi seems to have a clear advantage......Hope to do something good soon...
@Brandybuck your score is a great one man....My gtx285 has gone whacky since my 89970 score.Maybe see needs a good ln2 session before trying her on the low-clock 01.....
Wow, everyone is giving i7 a try now :D
I love your score aristidis!!!And your ram is kicking @SS bro...
pretty sure that RAM is running at 900....that ratio is bugged
Maybe you are right but its faster for me.Quote:

Great score aris.You really want the pot i see.
Great work aristidis...Keep it up bro:D
No...it' s not the pot it's only game pleasure. That is that it counts for me.:)Quote:

Thats what the thread is all about . I noticed after the first low clock 01 challenge last year, alot of guys picked up their 01 game, same here..
You are right because a lot of guys can play here without super extreme hardware trying to get a good experience of tweaking.
same thing is happening in superpi challenge thread
we are all learning something new from each other and improving :up:
when exactly does this contest end?? i know i prolly dont stand a chance but would like to enter if its still available
My first run on ATI for Low clock challange:) This is quick test and not many time at last weekend. My lobby scores are very poor , I will working on it:D If I get 500fps LH and 1110fps LL I run over 90.4k:p:
1180mhz/1289mhz at Nature and 1230mhz/1305mhz at all test:) HD4890 on LN2 -110C shows Riva tuner:D

Great score there neighboor!!!:) :clap:
If that's of any help in order to push your lobby's higher you have either to change the order-They are definately not in the first three and especially lobby high(oops enough said here!!!)-or run mem 1800@6-5-5-15 pl8 as my backup is(I'm on fire man...) I hope i helped...and of course i hope hipro5 doesn't bump us all with a score of 90800-90900(cause that's where a lucky run with 8600-4870 can go,and George is very lucky-respect hipro:bows:)
Luck is one thing and skill and experience are totally different things. I expect more then 92k from hipro :)
Nice scor man keep going. Try to change game order.

And something else. I think that the bugged ratio is with strap 400 and not 200.
i assumed you ran 400 strap sorry
well isnt that crazy :D
200 strap > 600MHz FSB
it also makes sense to be able to run RAM that high
lovely board and RAM you have :yepp:
i'm LOVING the GPU RAM clocks on that 4890.....that is just amazing stuff there :D
look at that CH :cool:
what's up with all the greyed out fields in GPUz?
one initial green result from brandy and me :rolleyes: come on lets see some green guys :D

I heard something yesterday that made me not want to compete anymore in this.Just a thought i think the winners sould at least have the dignity to send vince a video of their run (not only of the screen but the whole system as well...:idea:)to verify the authenticity of it.I'm not implying that somebody cheated to be clear... that's just a thought...
crustytheclown, could You be more specific what You mean with that?
well it's understood that we do have to *trust* each other here
recording 3dmark01 runs is not practical as getting a perfect run can take a while............
btw if you cheat and win............vince will know and he'll send his pooch inside the pot container to kick your arse :D
Since a cheat is known, then it can be spotted. So why don't you enlight the rest of us crusty...:yepp:
Are you referring to mipmap?
Crusty, so what ? Video of the run ? Now, what exactly is this supposed to show/demonstrate; the overclocker choosing game tests pressing run or changing LoD values depending on the test being benched ? How do you know that a specific program is not running @ background ... ? :shrug:
Overclocking Community is strictly based on honor and loyalty of all members. I'm sorry mate, but the moment these two are lost, there is no particular reason to motivate us all and make us continue benching. Let's also not forget the fun that's involved in the whole "game".
I'm watercooling the NorthBridge on this board.
On my first second Rampage Extreme I could do that on air ( just the stock Asus NB heatsink + a Delta fan over it ).
This specific mobo doesn't like running over 45C NorthBridge temp when the FSB is higher than 575MHz and with tight Performance Level ( anything under 11 lol ).
Cheat a 2k1 competition organized by Vince, with people like hipro5 and a lot of very experienced 2k1 tweakers watching. I'd like to see the guy trying this and getting away with it:)
True words George!Quote:

That's right and I cant see any reason of cheating. For what? just to win a pot? First think of that competition is fan.Quote:

I also running NB with chiled water around 2 to 5 C, so i have stability at high fsb's.Quote:
are you running the NB on Plain Air or H2O ?
Monstru almost forgot. Competitions like this one remind me of another thing I enjoy/admire: Beer :D We came here for the beer ! :D
Bill (BZ) there is no way you got a worse Rampage Extreme than the one Stelaras tried yesterday. 530MHz FSB max ... :ROTF: :D
Bro....530MHz FSB max on Rampage? A little word of advice, BURN IT!!! :rofl: And if that does not work, you can do what I did with the last mobo that dissapointed me. Bring out the axe...arghhhh :)
maybe they accidentally threw a p35 chip on that NB, 530 on RE is disappointment of the year ;p..
Vince i might still join in on this,
Is it ending soon or is it still a go this month?
i played with Nehalem last night
with the right clocks i think 92K+ should be doable :D
bloody useless at 3D tests it is........i dont know what sort of clocks i'd need on 4890 but it sounds like a hipro hack job to me with some ridiculous clocks like 1350-1400MHz core that would probably get nature cap :rolleyes:
strange to see how much slower it is in 3D tests. i think i was getting 1014FPS in nature compared to 1145 at same clocks on REX setup iirc
Yes bro, it is really slower in 3D, but I think that is X58's fault :)
Holy molly, that was truly awesome ! :rofl: :ROTF: It was a real pleasure seeing that we have open-minded people here in XS, whose work is based on creativity and innovation :yepp: :ROTF: I suppose I gotta show the video to Stelaras and let him to decide all by himself what to do with this incredibly :banana::banana::banana::banana:ed-up :banana::banana::banana::banana:ty REX :D
I wonder whose fault it is, might be due to the fact that sofos1990 was there ... He transforms into a tornado when it comes to bad luck and pc components, killing every single piece of hardware and bringing bad luck to us all :rofl:
hey monstru
thats a new mod
i havent seen that one before :D
Yeay, we should name that one though ... How about "Axe Mod" ? :ROTF:
I dont know whose fault is, but the last week was a disaster. Stelios has lost his good rampage and his good 8600 and i have lost my good 9650:rolleyes:.. And i dont want to test yet my new EVGA CLASSIFIED with 920 D0. :shrug:Quote:

When everything else fails....try the new and impproved cuting edge technology - the axe mod, your way to succes :D
Sorry to hear about your losses guys, it really sucks when that happens. I also had a bad LN2 session yesterday, but hopefully I didn't loose anything.
Couple days left! You gonna win both containers George and save me some coin on shipping? :D
I am considering trying the axe-mod on GTX260. Had some horrifying sessions these days, if I have the time (but especially more LN2) I will try with some other board. Anyways, not good, not good at all (Nature I mean).

I have good news and bad news, which first ? the goods one :
New rig (rampage x48) same HD on ata133 promisse PCI same mem (Gskill GTR) NB on H2O (1.77 volt) and the old 9800GX2 uning on LN2 at -45 all the bench at 945/1145 - the Nature at 880/1105 lod 4,8 and the PCIe at 120.1 - (the rest was at 124 MHz).
ORDER WAS : CH - LL - LH - DL - DH - CL ( 10 to 12 times)
Get this :
http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u...-06_224933.png
and last the NATURE (using the NVHancer to enable SLI - all the previews was at single mode)
and get Nature 1390 fps.
http://i164.photobucket.com/albums/u...-06_225537.png
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9492770
Next change the resolution for capturing prosses - save the bench at the HD (auto capture prosess using the Fastone Capture) and now is starting the BAD NEWS. :(
(I forgot to mention that i was put to the VGA card the Higher clock - 945/1145 - for the capture) and during the capture prosses the temp was dropt at -18 i think....)
So i change again the resolussion at 1024x768 to run again the Nature to get the extra fps (i have 10 fps to gain..)
But all the hardware is stoping and then the power was down......for a moment i think that was the PSU (Hiprotech 1200w) - i change PSU BUT the mobo dont start..... :(
This story was take place just a few minutes before. i take the HD and put it at my home pc to get the capture images and submit the 2k1 at ORB.
I am to tired now - it is almost 24:00 now here in Greece and i am going to sleep now.
(i am benching for 17:00 till now)....
Sorry to hear that bro...I see from last year that if it works good for us, it works better for you (remember 3th and 4th place 2k1 last year in August), but unfortunately if it goes bad for us I see it goes bad for you. I will try and push harder tomorrow my good friend, and hopefully it will al go well for both of us :)
bad luck there :(
Hey vince,
Will the competition end on the 8th of May, or can this date change?
:D
