7900 GTO goes insane

[aspstein]

Borrowed my good friend oysfaergs 7900 GTO board on thursday. And I think I have voided the warranty on it?


platform
M/B Asus P5B Deluxe Wifi (614 bios)
MEM Corsair Dominator 8500C5
VGA CARD MSI 7900GTO with Jon-t bios 1,8v on core and 1,95 on mem. (oysfaergs card)
POWER: Tagan 530W
OS WIN XP SP2
CPU Overklokk built single stage phase change CPU cooler (the best there is )
Chilly1 vga pot (Also oysfaergs)
CPU Intel Core 2 Duo Conroe e6600 4mb cache


Mem and core mod:


9482 points in 3dmark06 with singelcard


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 ...

[aspstein]

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

[G H Z]

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

[mascaras]

. And I think i screwed it

what you screwed ???


didnt understand

[aspstein]

what you screwed ???

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

[Reg-Edit]

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

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

cool
1.0 V more to go then

imm getting 725 stable with 1.55v.
800 with 1.65 ?

I get mine GPU stable @ 800mhz core with 1.73 volt ..
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

[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

Do you mean 1,73V load ?? (idle is 0,10V lower than load)

[aspstein]

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

Tnx to jon-t and his bios

[Reg-Edit]

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.

[lowfat]

what were you using for cooling?

[SPQQKY]

what were you using for cooling?

"Chilly1 vga pot"

Nice clocks. 1GHZ core is sweet.

[G H Z]

another 1ghz core
i remember people in her saying only kingpin and legends can get it
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

[DeToNaToR.cl]

amazing :o I need to get one of those..

[andL64]

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

thx

[aspstein]

pcie was 110. Didnt try any higher.

[dpa]

pcie was 110. Didnt try any higher.

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

[Yoxxy]

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

[RPGWiZaRD]

Wow, mind this is a $250 card.

I so want my 7900GTO from RMA now.

[SF3D]

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

I will post results in my mod thread later.

Sick core speed!

[Gebba]

very nice cpu klock!
have you ran any 3dm05 ?
overklockks phases is the best

[aasmaukr]

Very nice, 1GHz core is insane
Do you have any pics of the rig?
