Ive been checking ORB all day, no sign of the 10K mark yet but its just around the corner.
Thats intresting OPP is'nt it. People were saying that 10K couldnt be broken with current hardware. They were presuming that it couldnt be done because the scores were at 9.7K for long enough but now its only 33 marks to go.
:toast:
a bridge on the card exploded (!) during a 3dmark run (it was 20secs from the end of nature at 4505/657/471) :D
fixed the card and the hunt continues :D
Thats the spirit. Cards blowing up but he continues.Quote:

That effort deserves a 10k.
PTK
my hats off to you macci, you are truely a master of your trade. Unless op can do 10k with -40c, he wont get there.
As i was walking into my shop i noticed a strange shadow on the ground, so i looked up. And there was my three stage, up on the roof. I knew what it wa doing, it talked about it all the time. See, things just havent been the same for it since i added a compressor. The new compressor just didnt fit in, and well, the three of them just drove eachother mad....
oh yes, i knew exactly what it was doing....
but there wasnt enough time... I yelled "NOO please not yet".. right as i said that, she looked at me. Closed her eyes, and just let go. i ran to her but.....She was pronounced a peice of crap that didnt work at aproxomatly 6pm 2-17-04
maybe if id spent more time on her design....
more time
i just wanted more time
You sure u was'nt going to break 10.5K with that run :D Now that is what you call extreme... ;)Quote:

I told you people would start blowing things up, such is the competition, though Europe and USA are still safe one video card and one extreme cascade seem to have had " unhappy " endings as Copyman would say.
Looks like macci managed to make an unhappy ending happy again and so has a clear run now if his soldered together card can stand the pace. Macci, that is a nice card, be careful, don't go beyond manufacturers recommended voltage :D
CC, now for something really cool in time for r420 ? Opps will put it to the best of use I am sure, he is Mr Predictable, Mr Predicatably Good ;)
I was going to test 4 sticks of bh-5 tonight to se how they would go , but this is more exciting, might just browse the forum.
When 3dmark03 was released Worm said that people would be lucky to get 5000. 1 Year later we have this. Excellent progress.

i thought that was funny. oh well
not exactly. AMD is faster in Win2k and Intel is faster, way faster in WinXP, but the real problem is 3D'03 is optimised for WinXP, Intel's favourite:)Quote:

maybe Quad is right and WINXP is faster for everything. Though most people run who run AMD also run Win 2k still on the front page.

I'm not so sure about that QD.Quote:

If you look at the compares, OPP has a higher GT1 score even with the lower overall score:
macci/OPP
341.3/343.5
66.8/66.5
57.5/57
58.1/57.5
Then again macci doesn't have his CPU at max. 3DMark says 4106mhz. But the point remains that OPP has more system power at the same overall score.
"Then again macci doesn't have his CPU at max"
His old p4ee overclocked better too. Maybe if he swaps cpus and puts his old one back in or something ;)
No it didn't. He can bench 3DM01 at 45xx mhz with his current one.
maybe his cooling cant make it cold enough or his cpu is no longer stable at that high clock? Id imagine he would have had it at 4.5GHz by now if he could
346.6 in GT1 on my rig, didnt get any runs in yesterday and shut down early.
Great job macci, GL on 10K Ill be lucky to hit 9.9k

can u post a pic? lol
how many mod have u made?
- 33 wow
Melkizedek, Yea I have a macro shot of the dang part that exploded :D
Still at 9967. that one was at 4434MHz (246x18 1:1) 654/471.
The CPU will do the bench at 4524MHz (251.3x18 1:1) now. Good card clocks at that speed should do the trick.
Good luck macci, I wanna see how the card exploded.
let the ES release the POWER:devil:Quote:

one session with another MB 15 x 300mhz (FSB 5:4)is possible?
250x18 1:1 2-2-2-5 has proven to be a little faster than 300x15 5:4 2-2-2-5 I think...
that's a no brainer :)Quote:

Yup 250 1:1 is faster than 310 5:4
It's not really, because it looks like the high FSB would be king but in testing it really isn't.Quote:

Most people don't know this...I wouldn't call it a no-brainer...
every time i see "last post by macci", i anticipate just a few points away from 10k..Quote:

i think you already did 10k... i think you're brewing up 10100:)
heh who knows, but Macci just got his cpu to 4.4GHz so maybe that did it for 10k :D
:rolleyes:Quote:

OPP's faster in 3DMark2001 right? why because his chip is more powerfull. So why does OPP lose in '03 even though his chip's faster? WinXP maybe?
I don't know the vid clocks OPP had on his card though. Anyways let's not crap this thread.
Awesome score macci, you know you can't give up now:toast:
But how about this
15 x 250 1:1 = 3750
15 x 300 5:4 = 4500
Is someone trying to say 3750 can be faster than 4500 ?????
