Link to the orb (old score): http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=592570

Aquamark score, same settings as in the 06 score. 4,6ghz CPU, 1000/930 GPU.

And a 05 run, not so good clocks....

What Vgpu and Vmem ??
Any artefact in 2006 with Vmem above 1,90V ??
I don't think it's WR on Single VGA ...

1,8v Vcore and 1,95 Vmem. Got alot of artifacts when going higher on the Vmem :(

That's a nice score, SM 2.0 sure is fast on Nvidia. KP has single around 9,600 I believe.

what were you using for cooling?

Nice clocks. 1GHZ core is sweet.

It was a joke. The card still works just fine. With a bit more speed on the CPU and the mem I shuold be able to squeeze the system a bit more ;)

whats pcie frequenzy? did ya put it higher for this clocks?

thx
10-31-2006, 02:40 AM

pcie was 110. Didnt try any higher.

Looks like a really great start. Hope you get the record!

Wow, mind this is a $250 card. :hehe:

I so want my 7900GTO from RMA now.

You may want to raise that a littlebit more. I remember when my 7900GTX ran under Mach II cooling, anything under 120Mhz PCI-E was no go @ 910Mhz core..

Thanks, will try to run the pcie higher when starting up the rig again later tonight. Hopefully my CPU will do couple of more mhz too.

Dont think the memory on the card is maxed out either ;)

You should try other Vmem mod method. I'm currently running 1.98V with no problems. Mem can do 1940MHz now :D

I will post results in my mod thread later.

Sick core speed! :toast:

very nice cpu klock!
have you ran any 3dm05 ?
overklockks phases is the best :D
10-31-2006, 12:45 PM

Very nice, 1GHz core is insane :D
Do you have any pics of the rig?
10-31-2006, 01:49 PM
aspstein

Will take some more pics of the rigg.

And i dont think i have hit the wall yet ;)

Im going to run some 3dm05 aswell.

very nice card an very good score

cant you push your cpu more what cooling on cpu ?
10-31-2006, 02:36 PM
metro.cl

you should push a lot more the cpu that will give you a nice boost also :)
11-01-2006, 07:35 PM

push that cpu further!!!

Nice score :)

it seems everybody can with the aprociate cooling and good card.

You wouldn't see just anybody do it with the silicone that was available when KP first hit 1Ghz. I thought most guys already knew that, it's overclocking 101 ;)
11-02-2006, 01:19 AM

I have now borrowed my good friend oysfaergs x6800 ES. I hope there is more dry ice left when I come home. Hopefully that will give me a nice boost :P
11-02-2006, 01:28 AM

Waiting results :D

It would really help if your mem would go higher. My mem can do high speeds, but core can't. :( However, I couldn't do your score anyway :)
11-02-2006, 02:39 AM
aspstein

Who said I have maxed out the mem ;)
11-02-2006, 03:09 AM

Ok. I just thought so. It would be nice to see 1GHz /1GHz again.
11-02-2006, 03:37 AM

1.8 V on the GPU!!??
WHAT COOLING ARE YOU USING?

thats insane man :)

men norrbaggar är ju halvgalna haha
11-02-2006, 03:41 AM
aspstein

1,8v on the gpu is just enough ;)
Using dry ice for the cooling.

Nei det er sotabror som er halvgalna :p:

how high do you think its safe to go with watercooling?
im running at 1.55V now but i dont know if i can go higher?
temp is around 48 at full load so thats cool :)

Really nice score. Have you a URL how to do the vmod?
11-02-2006, 04:46 AM
aspstein

I dont know how far its safe to go with watercooling, but I ran 1,55v on air.

The mods can be found here: http://www.vr-zone.com/?i=3330&s=3

with water you can go as far as you want, but it may be safer to stay below 1.65v

I just bought one of these, seems like a nice card to play around with while waiting for next gen. Really nice oc aspstein

Dessutom är det bevisat att norrbaggar är mest galna! :)

1.0 V more to go then :)

imm getting 725 stable with 1.55v.
800 with 1.65 :)?
11-04-2006, 02:28 PM

Okey I borrowed oysfaergs 6600.

Dry ice on CPU and GPU. But the card seems to have a problem with SM 3.0

Ran out of dry ice so I couldnt test anymore.

Same problem here, when i give the mem more than 1.9 volt, artifacts are coming like a freak .. :slobber:

I get mine GPU stable @ 800mhz core with 1.73 volt .. :p:
Alreadt traid to give hem some more volt, like 1.8 ! but it dit not give me any higher klockspeed.
highest stable clockspeed was 820Mhz

Btw this is all with the boxed cooler !
on 800Mhz the temp is 55 degrese and on 820 the temp is 58
11-08-2006, 05:40 AM
aspstein

I found out that I have probably used the wrong vmem mod. If you have a look in the 7900 gto vmem mod thread there is a new mod there. I have done this mod on my card and will try it out tonight :)
11-08-2006, 05:47 AM
SF3D

I tried to say that..
I hope you get your mem up to 2GHz..
11-08-2006, 05:49 AM
aspstein

Sorry Im a bit slow :P

I would love to hit 1000/1000 aswell, but with the memtimings I run atm i doubt it, its tighter then the original gto timings now, so maybe ill raise them a bit just to hit 1000/1000 ;)

Do you mean 1,73V load ?? (idle is 0,10V lower than load)
11-08-2006, 05:56 AM

Not on my card ;) no 2d 3d clocks or nothing

Tnx to jon-t and his bios :clap:

Yes I mean load temp with ATItool scan for artifacts ;P

I have two of the EVGA 7900 GTO's running stock and I don't approach those scores in SLI.

I am sending one of the cards to ebay any day now, so maybe I'll mod the remaining card.

oh man some serious scores there

have you tried 120-125MHz on PCI Express :toast:
11-30-2006, 09:43 PM

our card ran w PCI-E freq @ 133MHz :)
11-30-2006, 10:13 PM

Machine started to get seriously unstable with higher pcie.

I got this in Aquamark, didnt have time to test anything else last night.
http://www.diskusjon.no/index.php?ac...post&id=115037

How much vgpu can I give the card when running Dice?
12-01-2006, 06:22 AM
TaPaKaH

well, we were running LN2 and Vgpu was something 1.7Vish, so 1.65-1.7V I think will be good for DI.
P.S. I may be wrong :D
12-01-2006, 06:27 AM
aspstein

Hehe ok, I was running 1,83 on DI so I think its on the edge of what the card can handle.

But I still might try and up the vgpu a bit more :p:

Should have LN2 though.
12-01-2006, 11:20 AM
lawrywild

I ran 1.85v on air on my 7800GT.. so I think this should be able to handle quite a lot of volts
12-02-2006, 03:51 PM

Wow thats quite alot. I will try 1,9 next time i get some Dice :D
