So what do we have here:
- Hondacity is running his Core i7 920 on dice plus his GTX 285 SLI setup on water and he is showing some nice AM3 and PIFast scores
- TheGoat Eater is learning how to clock i7 with a W3540 :up:
- Q9650 category is owned by thebluemeanie1 and Jor3llBR/Elano
- Yesterday I also saw jcool improving his WPrime scores
So I have a gigabyte board coming with this chip ( 920 DO )....I was advised I need something that is benchable with high FSB.
Any suggestions on a board that won't break the bank that can bench with high FSB that will not be a pita on ln2?
i just got my gtx295, should put some points before the end of the day
i'm excited :hehe:
edit-
chew, i think you'll have to break the bank for the mobo, the classy is pretty much the only board being able to get you high blck. Otherwise there's a pcie mod on the bloodrage and a GB one(don't remember which one) to help getting higher blck.

thanks for the daily update :D, dunno why my am3 run was slow...its sucks man...i tried single card and i think the pcie was too high LOL
Chew*
hey bud only the classifieds are non hard mod required to run 250mhz bclk... with the 920/w3520 you need high bclk to have fun...if you have the i950/w3540 asus and dfi and msi will be ok with 220-230mhz bclks
mk-ultra
do you have the 760 or the 759? nf200s can make a lot of difference in the scores..voltage tweak :) if no nf200 you'll be fine
you'll be my am3 rival then :D
Anyone try that micro atx EVGA board? Thats about the only thing I won't have to sell my soul and one of my kids to make a downpayment on. :rofl::ROTF:
hondacity
i have the 760.
i haven't been able to pass both GPU test in 3DMV with stock gpu settings so far,i just rebooted with stock settings everywhere to do a fresh start, let's see if it works. Kinda frustating.
edit
ok stock settings(with ich/ioh bump) did the trick ~ 17k
edit
i'm coming back!, 4ghz/stock gpu worked ~ 20k
mk_ultra
agree ioh needs a bump...stock at 1.1v on mine i used a step higher
chew*
haven't seen dice action on that board...the bios of the evga x58 non classy is actually good...you might have luck on that board... fingers x'd :D
It's a pleasure to do the daily update when there are some scores to show! :yepp:Quote:

I think you should rather try another driver, Andre and Vince are using 181.20 for their AM3 GTX 285 SLI setups, that should be a good start! ;)
ah i'm good for benching @ 4.5 again, now let's start OCing that 295 :D then OS tweaking
guys i got a problem here

btw mem oc doesn't do :banana::banana::banana::banana:, same score with 1050 and 1200 :shrug:
that score and the vantage run is the best i can do today, i'll be away all weekend. No more playing with my new toy until monday ;(.
Can't wait to put my new cpu under dice and do some 3d with that beast of gpu.

Q9650 WPrime category is owned some more by Jor3llBR/Elano! Good work, I hope he finds his way to this thread some day, he is a solid contributor! :up:
And of course mk-ultra playing with his new toy! :D
Hey guys, just got in here! Sorry the delay. This is an awesome thread, made me very happy to be on-board. Loved to see the hard work and nice results you guys are putting in.Quote:

It will be my first time benching with PCMark so any pointers will be much appreciated.
Go XsHWbotTeam!
