32m Low Clock Challenge

[dinos22]

My week 27 does that too but my E6600 wont, it wont even run at 3.20GHz 24/7

GAY CPU GAAAAAAAY

He's just babying it. Those are pure monsters once they get real voltage. Seems like he's teasing us.

hehe Thx both Alpha and Gautam

Actually, I'm fighting for the lowest time @3.6GHz with these sticks @600MHz 4-4-4-4... Weird thing that it needs at least 2.5V to run stable @600MHz CAS4 while it ONLY needs 2.09V to do so @614MHz CAS5 Also, 2.6V results in less stability (at least for 32M calculations).

So close to sub 13mins

[Gautam]

Interesting...no way that can really be cas 3...but it does seem to perform better than CAS 4. That's the fastest 3.6GHz time I've seen by a couple of seconds, and that too with only 2x512!

Lower tRFC possible?

[before]

yea, it's a Biostar bug... it missreads CAS4 (set into the bios of course) while running 2:3 ratio.

tRFC=28 seems the lowest possible.

I've been able to save few seconds up to 6.9GB copy-waza. (1.6GB more resulted in less stability: crashes or worst times)

oh i thought that was cas3.....these times are even more awesome then

[Gautam]

6.9GB???

Seems well worth it though, that time is just flat out amazing. I wonder how you'd do with 2x1024.

yeah he's got some supertweaks going on

[before]

Thx my friends

I'd love to try with a good 2*1024MB kit... my bro Quent is going to send me a kit of Corsair Dominator; may be sub 13mins @3.6GHz will become reality then

[before]

Here's my lowest CPU clock to join the sub 13mins club.

[coop]

YES! 11sec [IMG][/IMG]

[Mi©hel]

this takes about an hour on my athlon 64 x2, lol

when i get the time, i'll see what i can do

*thinks about crappy ram, crappy cpu and dfi expert mainboard*

i'm in for the 40.xx min contest

[dinos22]

nice one coop

[dinos22]

got one with the 17.xx category with allendale and some elcheapo micron sticks doing 600Mhz 32M

Not optimised yet but a start heh

[/B]

[rick_fx]

I decided to try this out.

Unmoded p5b-dlx, no tweaks except pagefile ~160mb, old Windows XP install.

13m37sec SPI 32M (can't do SPI at higher ram speed, I need to Vmod the board for 600mhz )

[dinos22]

page file = 160M

how much of a gain did you see with this tweak

[rick_fx]

page file = 160M

how much of a gain did you see with this tweak

I never tried with bigger pagefile, I always close useless programs before running SPI.

But I will try tomorrow to see how much gain it gives.

[coop]

dinos, rick fx, I'm still here. I will update on Sat. Thanks dinos.

[JMKS]

14.xx with Allendale
E6400 @ 404x8=3232MHz, 4:5 505 4-4-4-4-4-20-4-9-4-9 with Asus Commando (1066 strap), 14m54.328s
Without Copy Waza (OS on FAT16 partition )

[dinos22]

what the heck OS on FAT16 partition DO TELL MORE PLEASE

nice time btw

[JMKS]

FAT16 is not really important, this is only the explanation why Copy Waza was impossible. In fact, it is not important at all .
I have very non-Pi partitioned HDD so for Pi OS there was only a couple of GB - so FAT16, why not , now I can flash with EZFlash without FDD .

Just a not-really-well-tweaked (registry is absolutely not tweaked - I'm not good in it...) OS.

Tried with higher FSB but 4:5 and 1066 strap is very hard combination, even on Commando with ~2V @ NB...

My best 32M was 12m30.3xxs, 498 FSB @ 1066 strap (CPU is capable of ~510 FSB, NB is limiting).

[rick_fx]

Update with better scores

Ram only at 500Mhz 4:5, for now.
I will test 600mhz 2:3 after I do Vmods this week

Ram timings in notepad
Only tweak used is "kill explorer.exe"

SPI 32M --> 13m25.468sec

[coop]

rick, a better score does no good unless it is done at a lower speed. Then only if it comes in under the "minute" mark. Also 1m pi's don't belong here. Slow your speed down to whatever to make 13min 59sec. etc.

LOL i stopped counting how many times we've all mentioned that to everyone.........maybe a bigass RED BOLD letters on first post might do the trick LOL heheh

[rick_fx]

Ok, SPI 1M results removed, sorry about that.

I was looking for something else to do with Super Pi and came up with this. Try getting into various minute segments with the lowest possible clock speeds. If someone has a lower (22.59 21.59 etc) or higher min. segment for a challenge feel free.

Your request is very vague and should be more specific in your first post.

Here are couple suggestions:

Maybe you could start off your 1st post by mentioning that scores must be between a XXmin55sec - XXmin05sec bracket or XXmin50sec - XXmin10sec bracket and that all scores not respecting this criteria will not be added to the list. Also, maybe remove all existing scores that aren't within the time brackets.

Example: (using scores already in the first post)

13m50sec - Goal:14minutes - 14m10sec

3604.1......camouflage...............13.52.609
3596.3......alpha0ne...................13.54.297
3600.9......eva2000....................13.56.422
3800.1......dinos22................... ..13.57.187
3392.2......bachus_anonym...........13.57.485
4000.........funkflix.......................14.03. 781

I hope this is helpful
