Thanks Don_Dan for the kind words. I had a 1600/1250 run pass which gave me a 179xxx score but once I opened gpuz the system froze on me. Anyway a good way to end my benching season and start my summer break.


Welcome back Hondacity!

Maybe you had the issue Splave mentioned in his thread about the lightning? You have to warm the card up a little to run GPU-Z without crashing?

[andressergio]

Just wanna say thanXS for the full support guys. XStremely welcoming

welcome honda !!!

Yeah, that was probably the case. I think I opened gpuz when the pot was around -170.

Enjoy your summer break!



Nice scores, should be even better when the cards are modded!

I am running low on conformal coating, more ordered but not yet arrived.
I have Performix liquid (electical) tape - brush on - black in color.
I know it will work fine to seal the card but you can see nothing thru it.
I assume this would be bad if I wanted to have Mr. Chew mod the card later (after the tape is applied)?
I would think it would be like working in the dark - can't see anything on the card?

[SteveRo]

Enjoy your break!
Come back soon!

Yes, I'm pretty sure that would make soldering impossible.

Two more bottles of clear conformal arrived in the mail yesterday - all is well!

[G.Foyle]

Clear conformal is usually reworkable, meaning that you can solder through it. Black liquid tape is not.

Had a little benching session with my friend Vistageek92.
Tried to get proper '05 performance but ended up gaining about 2fps and still being about 6fps slow.
I'm thinking it may be the UD3P board...
Have some new stuff coming in soon to fix that including a M4E and some good hyper memory
Anyhow still got an OK '05 run for now and AM3...
Planning on retesting next week with him again and getting through all of the other 3Ds with his GTX 470. Gotta get more LN2 and we'll be benching full LN2 on GPU and CPU next time.

[SteveRo]

^^ 58 multi on the SB, very nice!
What cpuv are you running?
What temp, under ss?

This is on LN2 CPU not maxed around 1.63v -40 to -60oC did a few runs only used 4L or less

[SteveRo]

^^ 1.63 - at that v and temp this chip should last a long time i would think!

This is the plan!

Lots of fun linuxfan! Nothing like stealing the 419 AM3 score 5mins before we had to shut it all down for the day!

Yeah that was epic.
Thought the little UD3P board had died after I ran on the SS unit for pretesting a few hours and it was soaked, but then I found it will still boot subzero but only with single channel 1 stick of ram. Then we maxed out the hot GPU and were around 116k 117k... pushed GPU core another 5mhz and it crashed. Restarted and upped CPU a little and after a few runs managed to beat 2nd place with a 418k. Opened paint and found that the screenshot somehow was borked! Did some more stuff and ran a few more times, then managed a solid 419k.

Next time we shoot for 1st place in AM3 with 1100 core on that little GPU!

thanks don_dan for fixing teh scores on HWbot

with the table i gave yah...i think we can push enough points to overtake the team...

8800gts320 and 9800gt512 modding in progress...then its cpu time

Great!
We're close... I have the feeling OCA is going to wake up and those guys are going to try to make some space between us so we'll see how it goes...
Looking forward to the battle for the top spots in different categories

[Hondacity]

nahh wiith our team_captain we've got things planned. im sure they don't have a plan (kiddin) lol

i have a feeling they're recruiting team.sa ....

[Linuxfan]

Getting ready to push three GPUs and pulled a bunch of tabs up of different scores to try and match just with SS/Air today.

[Hondacity]

i did that too...lol

i print it now...though lol

Too much paper

[Linuxfan]

About 1/2 way done shooting for the 3D scores in my tabs....
4870 didn't go as well as I hoped and '05 performance in Vista is still horrible, oh well.
Done for the day, have to bench and get a good run in '03 with the 4870X2 and get scores with the GTX 260 C216 next.

[Hondacity]

amd gpu, *pukes*
