31K 3DM06 (2x3870 X2 + 5.65GHZ QX9650)

Hi all!

Today I got another 3870X2 and decided to do some quick pre results.

I had huge problems with BlackOPS beta bios and Crossfire. Max fsb was 405.
Cards run fine and overcloking was as easy as before.

These runs were done in hurry, cause I have only this night left to bench. I have another things to do in next few weeks.

No pictures of setup, cause my camera is still away.

Setup:

Foxconn BlackOPS (bios 7)
QX9650 @ 1.96V
G.Skill DDR3 (2.3V)
2x 3870 X2 (1. unmodded and 2. modded) (918MHz/1070MHz all tests)
Thermaltake TT 1200W
PCI-E @ 120MHz
Max fsb 405MHz.


Operating system: Win Vista 32-bit

Screenshots can speak for themselves :D

03: 129K (5650MHz)

Aquamark: Doesn't work well at all.
http://www.aijaa.com/img/b/00060/1673464.jpg

01 run with only 1 core? It was too slow to show here.


I hope you like it :up:

Good run :up: do the drivers seem finished or are there issues with the benches (besides aquamark). any idea how much it is using the other gpu's?

Very nice run. I assume those GPUs were at 825MHz? Lots of room for improvement. I also wonder how badly CPU limited you are, with my 3850's I don't even max them out in 3D06 with a 4.2GHz E8400, was 90% utilization on 1 GPU and ~80% utilization on the 2nd.

Impressive score Pete, congratz :clap:

Nothing against you as a bencher, but I love the fact that the Foxconn program is brining soo many new names to the top of the game :clap:

Its now not just a 3-5 man game at the top of the ORB.

Great job man and keep it going :up:

Good scores, nice to see all that people benching hard lately !

I see your point, but why do you think that immature bios and ES motherboard gives me some kind of advantage? If those runs were made 12.5x 450, those scores would be even better.

I'm sorry if someone thinks, that I don't deserve these scores.

Now I'm pissed and will go to sleep! :mad:

You missed his point m8 ;)

He dident mean that.
He meant that it is cool that because of foxcoon benchers get hardware and can produce great results.

And when he said nothing against you he thougth that he explained that he dident mean you where unknown or a noob ;)

Smile mate :D

GREAT pownage scoor.

I had problems today getting past 403 fsb.

powerful setup

keep pushing mate
:D:D:D:D

yeah i don't think filmbots intentions were negative
you misunderstood him ;)

Congrats mate, good scores. :up:

Your GT3 is lower than what Sham had at 5400MHz so I'm thinking there is much more left there, plus 32k with high FSB/MEM and so on for sure.

nice score men...........can you post a screen game??? like crysis or FEAR for example? thanks

DAMN!!! Now I must get another 3870 X2 :shocked:


Sweeet Scores....... Keep up the GREAT work :up:

great score there my friend!! doing great!

will try to catch you... :)

Nail on the head sir :)

My intentions were to show no harm :)

Goes to show that theres a lot of talent out there, but in many cases restricted by access to high end hardware

Great work SF, pretty damn close on a couple of those :toast: Keep going! :D

FYI he was there before the Foxconn affiliation :up:

Nice scores. I imagine that GPU-Z has to be not reading the clocks. Great job!

Impressive score Pete
:up:

Thank you everyone!

There is so huge computing power in 4GPUs, that overclocking didn't do much to the scores. Every 100MHz on CPU did some noticeable difference.
You can compare current WR runs from No_name and see that my 918MHz vs. his 1066MHz did not much difference at 5.7GHz cpu speed. We need more CPU power.


So, the best scores can be done only if your CPU clocks enough. Too bad, that those 6GHz beasts are not growing in a tree.

:shocked:
but Am3 is poor.....:shrug:

Yes it is :shrug: Running AM3 in vista is not best possible situation. I don't know how many cores it was using. I quess only one card (2GPUs)

01 was worst test. Nature score was 608fps with these cards at 918MHz...talking about scaling here :rofl:

Drivers will improve of course, so new scores will come when the time is right. time.

You did update the direpll file for AM3 didnt you?... Does seem a bit poor :(

super fantastic score. 2x 3870x2 4gpu full ln2 score maximum to get out.:up:

Nice results, dude :)
offtopic, is it possible to make AM3 to work in 64bit Vista?

Great Jop, X2 for President:D :clap: :clap:

what are your bench scores for 1 3870x2. and where did you get the Crossfire Drivers to work with both cards?

Here is the thread. (26150 06, 36204 05, 81xxx 03.)

People who read this thread. Please don't ask these drivers on P.M, cause I can't give them out :shrug:

You have to wait week or two :(

Nice work!

Thank you very much!

Waiting to see your GX2 + 790i SLI action :up:

Great Bench work Sir! I can wait those couple of weeks:D

It will be very exciting to push the X2s together for the first time.

Inspiring :up:

It's a tight fit but doable :)

First run:

http://plaza.fi/s/f/editor/images/3dmark_24321.png

Nice cpu score at that clock, but it seems that 3DM06 can't use all that cpu power to feed 3870X2 cards.

Let's bech this setup in next month with 2x 5.5GHz CPUs an 3870X2 cards :)

Wow I think you got a whole 1/8" gap there for airflow. Yikes.

Sounds like a plan, both gfx under LN2? :)

Insane clocks are missing [as SF3D said] and yet a amazing score :D

Keep pushing, SF3D ;)

I think we don't need LN2. If we compare my air and No_name LN2 score we can see why :) But if we could get enough LN pots, of course then...

Thanks harshal!

I know these pics should be in the first post, but I just got my camera back yesterday :shrug:

Setup on air. It can do 4.5GHz cpu, 918MHz/972MHz vgas (air vga/water vga)
http://www.aijaa.com/img/b/00069/1685580.jpg

CPU pot which was used in the runs. Nice and cheap pot (80€)
http://www.aijaa.com/img/b/00022/1685561.jpg

Last one is the picture that I like most. Daddys little helper. She always checks my vmods before I use them :D (8.5months in the picture and that is the HD3870 that did 1200MHz on LN2)

http://www.aijaa.com/img/b/00042/1685590.jpg


Thank you for watching and see you again! 31K in 06 was one good memorable moment in my life :D

Awwww...now maybe if you get her to help you with the 3870X2's we might be seeing 1200 on those too. :D

This is a shockingly powerful setup indeed, grats on bringing it all together. :toast:

An angelic helper indeed :up:

it's not fair ;)

You have got sweet assistant so yoru score is better [;

joke

We waiting for 32K! :D

Nice picture, Pete ... it's always handy to have such a great help when benching :D;)

Thanks guys! She is nice little helper indeed.

----------------------------------------------

I couldn't resist. I have to show some huge computing power of these cards :D

I runned the exactly same setup as in picture above. I installed drivers manually, so cards are shown as 3470. They are 3870X2 of course.

Cards were running 877MHz core / 1050MHz memory. These are the clocks everyone should be able to get easily. Cpu was 10x400 (4GHz), so it shouldn't be too extreme.

3DM06: 1920x1200 No AA, No AF: 22585 (These are the max settings I could get)

http://www.aijaa.com/img/b/00038/1693870.jpg

3DM06: 1920x1200 8 AA, 16 AF: 15571

http://www.aijaa.com/img/b/00029/1693881.jpg

Can't wait to test some games when drivers supports them :up:

I don't think he would have that much if the q-tip wasn't holding them apart..:up:

So I am seeing two different drivers that support quadfire? Sampsa's are different from SF3D's...interesting.

With that photo i remembered hipro5's son at the Plaisio Overclocking Event here in greece when he fill the pot with ln2...:rofl:


BTW nice skor m8 keep it up...

Another 3DM06 run.

Cards are running 918MHz / 1100MHz on air/water.

3DM06: 1920x1200 8AA 16AF: 17989 (almost 18K :shocked: )
Attachment 73341

Could someone with 8800Ultras / GTS 512MB try the same settings.

somebody hand this guy som ln2, stat!

great work there mate

is this on vista ultimate??

Sorry to wake this old thread up :shrug:

My two week pause is over now.

I have solved all fsb issues with CFX and BlackOPS. Earlier I could do only 405MHz and now I'm able to take this board up to 440fsb.

Settings in the low clock run:
7-6-5-14
Strap 266
PL=5

Voltages for other scholars:
VPLL 1.77V
Vfsb 1.65V
Vnb 1.9V
Vsb 1.725V
Vmem 2.34

Low clock 05 run. (4.4GHz 880/1100)
http://www.aijaa.com/img/b/00850/1774151.jpg

Within few days I will do second CFX tests with this setup. If I can take my CPU up to 5.75GHz - 5.8GHz and vgas up to 972/1125 (aircooled), I think we will see some nice scores :D

I'll be back :up:

Thx for sharing mate :)
