32bit is a bit faster in everything. :up:

So my goal was to get some Di and ln2 today, wrap up a review on some gtx2's then get a little benching in. Unfortunately I got owned by the DI place and then apparently I owned myself with a little to much caution to the wind......
Somehow i managed to get some benches off although I have no freaking clue how the cpu was operating like this, I have a feeling this was the cause of my IMC / 32m stable issues. Looks like i got some conformal on chip somewhere along the line :yawn:

None the less and this issue was still unknown to me until I tore down so I forced the chip to work anyway. :D
And decided while I was at it I might as well tell my 4890 that it wasn't allowed to coldbug.

excellent vantage score :D:up:
silver cup ::clap:
Great benching :up:
But how do you impose your will upon a HD4890?
wut, we're 60 points behind again, this is blasphemy 111!1!1!1
according to my tracing numb, ill be getting the 5870 today.
hope to have a goodie now, els it'll go back just as easy as the other one did.
i have a few Liters of LN2, so i can make it cold once and test fast or so :P
//edit
and a phase thingything, i could go with that aswell, although changing the mounting
on that is more of a pain in the ass then well, imposing world peace!
Can't wait for those 8800s so I can help fight for #10 again...
Great work chew*, glad you got that poor 920 cracking in wprime! :)
yay, 5870 is here. lets see what she does @ air!
congrats on hitting the 13k boint mark XS, awesome work :)
Hmm, tried out the 5870 fast.
No luck though, at -110 ( gpu-z reading ) the screen starts to go balastic, starting off with alot of dots first. apprently this is the mem controller in the gpu chip?
Anyhow, doesnt matter if i use 1.4 or 1.5V , the limit is 1250core.
with the upcomming lightnings and such, it's not bad, but not good enough for what my goal / plan was with it. so another one bites the dust, and ill just wait it out untill the non-refs become available.
will the 5870 lightnings be in another category?
good lord....the reference card benchers will be raped....
i was thinking of getting the 5870 :|
Don't think the difference will be that big for most of the benchers on stock coolers...
heh, whats air cooling :confused:
What a diff a conformal free cpu makes :ROTF:
Water testing done, back to cold testing I guess.

Obviously once review is done I will knock out a proper tweaked 32m run with a 32m tuned os versus the win 7 above ;)
Air cooling=why all of my gpus run hot as fire
Amazes me they can run overclocked at such temps. :rofl:
:shrug:
Congrats to chew* for breaking 1000 points! :clap:
Alright guys, i have parts coming in, so i hope to get the team some points real soon. I got my mobo and GPU in, waiting on PSU and looking for a 920. You can check out the parts in my build log...i am hoping this board will be a good bencher, but i won't know till i try it out, we'll see if it can go past that 225blck with cascade. :up:
Thats what i am hoping, i'll get together with linuxfan, and use is cascade system to test it out, and get some boints
