Dammit stormad I love your score man ! I'm so upset nobody will make a waterblock for this card :( , it would be a beast under water . When I had my card I couldn't get 900mhz stable in vantage cuz I have no fans inside my comp lol everything is watercooled . Best I did was 880 and was shy of 20k
for those of you who've achieved 1ghz with the msi cyclone 1gb,was it withthe stock cooler orr water?
With proper cooling you can't prob hit it on air , dunno how stable it would be tho , just like the review they did , but nobody knows if it was stable or not , either way def good card and there are waterblocks for them .
3d06 @ 1015. I had some very small graphical glitches in the last two test so I am not calling this stable, only that it passed.
What's your total gpu score bro ? I can't see this graph too well cuz I'm on my iPhone on the forums .
Yeah I should have only captured the active window.Quote:

Damn that is an awesome score and that's just for 1 card right??
VERY good score but damn high clock for 24/7
Yep. @985 I didn't get artifacts so that is the highest clock so far I would call stable even though 1015 passes easy.Quote:

My 24/7 clock will probably be 925 when I'm done playing around. I get 23xxx in 3d06 and over 60 fps in Dirt2 everything maxed, so that good enough for me. But of course I'm not done playing yet. :)Quote:

Palit pcb with g92 hole spacing with a mcw80 swiftech gpu block. Enzotech copper 'sinks on mem and vregs. I think I used 1.200 volts for 1015. For 985 I think I used 1.187 or so. I'm a little hesitent to go to 1.212v but I will probably try it again.Quote:

Update: I redid this @1000 1.200v and It ran clean. Got P19400 3dmarks
You did the run without PhysX? Try applying it and then do the run again, your scores should be higher ;)
Or course they would be higher. But enabling PhysX and you won't have a legit score.Quote:

uhhh nice!! tell me something how can you get these high voltages?softmod or hardmod? i was told that the max voltage is 1.087 via soft.. :shrug: so im kinda confused now..Quote:

nice score btw! have you tried @1.20 with aircooling? just curious to see what the results would be....
Look a few threads down. Ket is modding the bios for us. :)
wow brother thanks, u really helped me out on this.. i found the thread, it's like i've discovered a new horizon now!!!!Quote:

ps: discard HAWK i can't wait for it..
I would say the Asus Direct CU is a good contender for the best PCB, it's reference but the quality is brilliant. Just my 2 cents.
fan@100% and volts ?Quote:

Dunno if it's maxed out yet, gonna try later tonight stock fan/volts and with "juice" too.
Just put the card in, ran MSI Kombuster at 1080res, 8xAA, DX11 for around 8 minutes at 900mhz core, temps didnt break 65c. Not sure what the best test for stability is, I will use BC2 tonight and see how high it goes.

Vantage is pretty aggressive on the cards , I perfer to run a few runs wth vantage on my cards without any atifacts or tears and that's considered stable for me . But ya def tweak what you can little by little
At Vortan Madge, the Voltage used was 1.087!
Looks like Kombuster isnt so good, video driver stopped responding in Vantage at the same clocks. Guess Ill have to bump up voltage. I have another card comming tomorrow so they will run at stock most of the time, not to concerned about oc'ability on them.Quote:
