lol, shut up already.
If he COULD do it, he would have. :rolleyes:
GF4, you taking the piss or summat?
.....and pik_ard, most of the time, two o/c's on different components wont like being combined, when you put HEAVY stress onto a modern system. Course, you wouldn't know that.........
some of you guys dont have 10% the skill macci has. :hehe:
relax, were just trying to help this champ Macci reach his goal of 10k. it is clear that gpu clocks to the max is what he wants, even at the expense of a few MHz on the cpu
hm... maybe the whole max gpu vs max cpu thing is right... however...
it looked to me that macci was attempting to find max clocks on his 9800XT... as they seemed to go up each time. ;)
i dont see any posts where macci says that his high gpu clocks are interfearing with his cpu clocking... so why should i assume that is the only reason he isnt going with 4.3-4.4ghz?
when im personally trying to find the max clocks on my lowly card, i clock my cpu down a bit.
if i am wrong... which i may be, you could atleast see where i could make that honest mistake?
and if im not sure of something, like this situation, isnt it better to say something and get corrected, then to not say anything, and keep the same wrong assumption?
i know macci knows good and well what he is doing, but just me saying something like what i said, could possibly get an explanation as to why he isnt running both at max. :rolleyes:
as for ace over there... :stick:
hmm,
I'm not really impressed with total score amount, but i'm more impressed with the amount of work needed to be #1.
3dmark03 is very demanding test. Look at the attrition, Oppainter's cascade broke, and Macci's video card bridge blew while running this benchmark trying to beat 10k.
lol fools have a look at maccis website and the amount of things hes achieved.... hes probably the most accomplished overclocker out there and always up there with the best in term of benching aswell.
macci's benchmarking and overclocking skills should NEVER EVER be questioned let alone mocked or criticised and some of you have gone very close to mocking or criticising them
I saw no one mocking him, just offering him suggestions and praises
:eek: :ROTF: That's just priceless..... I'm goinna write that down! :p: Please keep up the support!Quote:

Yeah i'm sure he didn't know that before :rolleyes:

knock it off Ace. You don't have even 5% of his knowledge so how can you help him break 10k? You sound like you're trying to teach Carl Lewis how to walk.:rolleyes:
Im sorry but benching with FX5200's and Ti4200's is different then Maccis rig where it isnt bottlenecked anywhere Geforce dude
daily update...
http://melkizedek.altervista.org/rank03g.gif
Macci - 34
Oppainter - 122
Fugger -192
OT: SIGN UPDATED :D /OT
I believe I was the one who started the max card clocks and the cpu at a speed to suit :)
I was trying to say that in the past he has run his card and cpu together trying to level the combo out not at thier max's, which he probably cant do. Runing the card at its max might do the trick. macci might of already done this, who knows what he has done :D But I think that the card at its max, is the formula to get to 10K, Im not telling macci what to do, he doesnt he telling with all the knowledge he has but its just my thought :)Quote:
I say the winning formula would be his card @ 660/474. Which macci said that it had passed through the test at that before but his cpu has to be at a lower clock. Therefore run the cpu @ 242x18 (1:1) The good ol' 1:1 action would do the trick ;)
Wonder how many points oop would gain from a driver update :)
Thanks for all the suggestions :)
No idea is bad idea at this point :D
I think I need to put DX9.0b in and hope it gives atleast 5 extra (going from 9 => 9.0a gave me 5). I have server2003 OS too which gave a nice boost in A64 SuperPi results. Maybe it will run fast in 3D w/ Intel too. OPP has already shown that Server+DX9 in 3dmark2001 w/ A64 is faster than WinXP+dx8.1
And as far as OPP's driver goes it seems that its just as fast as the 4.2. Also I doubt that he would bench w/ cascade and not use the fastest driver for his setup ;)
btw, anyone got good ATI driver D3D tweaks?? Other than the usual control panel => high performance?
Maybe Rage3d?
edit -I think with Rage3d you can turn detail down even further, gotta check
I'l have to check that out. Do apps like SuperPI, Sandra run on Server 2003 Ok? Would everything be compatible with Server 2003?Quote:

we arent telling macci how to bench, but marely giving him suggestions ;)
I'd imagine 64bit cpus will show their full pwoer when 64bit apps and os's come out.
Sooo we now play the waiting game.
How does one install DirectX on Server 2k3? I just installed the OS tonight. It seems to be quite fast actually.
BTW, Sandra seems to run okay, yes. Dunno about SuperPI etc. This is my old box that I plan on using for a file server, folding machine.
Just tried SuperPI, runs fine. I'll be damned if I'm gonna post a score from a P4 1.8 thou GRIN.
Just think in two months you will be clicking to run it and your r420/nv40 will do 11k whilst you sit down eating your dinner wondering whether you should take the stock hsf off for the cascade .. LOL :DQuote:

The card has taken insane amount of punishment and it still keeps on going :D I'm sure she'll get 10k in the end...if not.. :bsod:

This is a good point, although macci has 99.9% of everything covered due to experience and skill, benching has so many combinations that maybe something not thought of or wild will do the trick.Quote:

For instance Stinger ran 2 memory modules in AMD64 3400 and said it gave 300 more points at 30k, I would never have consdidered that in a single channel system ( might not be true though, not tested it ).
Besides, it is just people here being excited and involved, I'm sure we have all shouted " Hit him with a right " when watching a boxing match :)
Macci, increase your clocks on video and cpu ..that is my tip.
:banana:

:D :banana: yea funny thing how fast technology advances eh? If he can grab one of those quick, he may be the first to 13k or even 15k and 40k in 2001
lol, i thought it was pretty obvious, i've been recommending using 2x256mb sticks since day 1:)Quote:
