Home made 3-Way SLI results

[George_o/c]

No difference even with 140MHz PCIe bus freq ? ... Why's that ?

[massman]

I can see here that the highest 3D Mark 03 result at HWBot is a 99000 run from hipro, done with a X6800 @ 5250MHz and 2 Ultras on LN2 ...
Sampsa's 100k run might be unofficial, but still he broke the 100k barrier ... Now, how would they perform with a yorkie on LN2, hosted on a 780i m/b ... ? ...

Not everyone submits to HWBot: KP broke 100k a long time ago: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=5412866

Sorry, I already knew that not everyone submits scores to HWBot, but I wasn't aware of the fact that Vince has broke 100k

Small improvement, CPU @ 4687 MHz:



I'll try one more time tomorrow to improve the score but after that I'll just lean back and watch kingpin to show some numbers with nForce780i SLI + Yorkfield and three LN2 cooled Ultras I'm guessing the score will be between 120 - 140k

If this is Tri-SLi with three Ultra's, I'm really looking forward to see results from Quad-SLi if it's coming a 8850GX2 with two G92's!

My wallet does NOT look forward to quad-sli

100K@03 very nice score.I want yorky with 3Way SLI

[Nizzen]

Finishing up now. This is working.

For phase change users, 780i is the best. bios changes without power cycle is a definite plus.

Half multiples work 12.5 is the max multiple working for both QX9650 and QX9770

Ill have my numbers up in a few hours along with more info's.

Any numbers yet?

Your run look very optimized compare to kingping ,, he is running faster CPU and GPU and still lower score

[Supertim0r]

1.85-1.9v on the cpu for 5ghz run

[Sampsa]

In worst case I'm experiencing 1500 - 2000 points difference between two runs with exact same clock speeds and settings. Maybe nForce780i SLI Yorkfield support isn't very well optimized.. yet?

[SoF]

some nice toys you're playing with Sampsa
Looks excellent so far and I am curious what you would do with Yorkfield and 780i in your hands

[Sampsa]

I'll get EVGA nForce780i SLI board when their European office receives them together with 3-Way SLI bridges (hopefully this week).

[Charles Wirth]

Checking in with my 2k3, not tweaked at all and using "let application decide" setting in ntune. No LOD adjustment.

I am sure I can pick it up more, I stopped at 100k

[crotale]

Nice clocking Sampsa and Charles

Anyone of you happen to have a watt meter laying around?

how about some 2k6 results?
its not scaling well or didnt you try 2k6 yet?

lol at all the nudges at nvidia in this thread

Does SuperPi scale with 3-way?? =)
same with 3dmark06 (or 05) at stock low rez settings - its a CPU benchmark, it doesnt scale with extra GFX power (excluding Canyon Flight).

[dpa]

so... when will 4 way crossfire take down 100k in 03 Macci..?

hmmm thats right 2k6 is is way too cpu dependant for my tastes as well.
id still like to see some 2k6 numbers with really high cpu clocks to see if tripple sli does scale at all over normal sli or if its entirely the same.

[revogamer]

fugger, are u gonna do tri-sli with your skulltrail setup?

how high is REAL high

[saaya]

5.5+ 45nm quad

Have you been benching 2900s with 5.5GHz+ QX9650? With that cpu it is not all about the cpu

thats interesting but 2k6 is supposed to indicate how powerful your system is in current and future games. which it doesnt do at all... its way more cpu dependant than any game that is on the market and will be on the market within the next 1 or 2 years. so a dualcore system or a system with a weaker cpu will suck in 2k6 even though it performs the same ,or even better in some rare conditions, than the same system with a quadcore or more powerful cpu.

i dont like 2k6... i never did... its just 2k5+more colours and a huge cpu dependancy
and 2k5 is already too cpu dependant for my tastes...
