Round 2 - Pedro in Vegas

**Charles Wirth** · 06-20-2008, 10:33 PM

Pedro Rocha dropped by Vegas for some 3D runs

Intel E8500 and QX9770 C1
EVGA 790i stock P05
EVGA GTX 280 FTW
Corsair Dominator 1800C7
Thermaltake 1200w
K|ngp|n F1 CPU pot

That E8500 is a sweet chip, we maxed out FSB with 20c+ headroom, bugged around -130c

Thanks for dropping by Pedro, we had a good run and hopefully we can get in some more benches before you leave town.

Good work Charles and Pedro...

Interesting to see the nature with stock cards with 5.7g...

Keep pushing it.

**SIOUX** · 06-21-2008, 12:14 AM

i think i just wet my pants over that nature

Amazing benching guys

**~~Horus´~~** · 06-21-2008, 12:38 AM

Impressive test runs guys.

**Harshal** · 06-21-2008, 12:43 AM

I don't know if mods are really needed...

This vga's are powerfull like the devil and seems to make same results as quad sli 9800... Too cpu limited... Only way is vantage. Sure the top clockers will make some new record but I think nothing spectacular without nehalem...

Anyway very good bench.

Bye

**[XC] gomeler** · 06-21-2008, 02:50 AM

Killer clocks guys. That's one slick E8500, looks like 790i is a good match for those chips.

**DelaMaris** · 06-21-2008, 03:39 AM

**pmp** · 06-21-2008, 04:00 AM

Excellent work! Hopefully I can give you the competition Pedro asked me for a few weeks ago, been tied up but I'm even more anxious for GTX 280 after seeing this. 1755 nature is incredible for cards on air.

Very well done legends!

PS- does nhancer still work?

Thank you Gautan, tank you all

Yes nHancer still work like a charm with the GTX280 and 177.xx drivers

Fugger discover the wonders that single card run can do in some tests of our favorite game

To bad I corrupt one of Fuggers XP HD's with my radical atempt to boot on Windows at 615x9.5, 120K maybe was possible even with the 2 cards on air ..

The GTX280's are really great and not just only in Nature, seems gonna be dificult to me to control not to buy a pair GTX280's, to bad they still are so dam expensive - seems I need to get a sponsor or my favorite game will get me bankrrupt

**SoF** · 06-22-2008, 12:58 AM

haha pedro you are traveling around the globe for your game

that card just rocks nature and the rest of 01, I feel like my 9800GTX is old

**Ming@s** · 06-22-2008, 02:03 AM

Very Gooooooooooood Job Pedro.

**tiborrr** · 06-22-2008, 02:14 AM

Congrats to mr. Pedro & mr. Charles. Major props!

**Charles Wirth** · 06-22-2008, 06:48 PM

One for Pedro, we tried to hit 30K before he left and I nailed it this morning.

3 stage cascade and cards on air.

2GPU 30K
