[AwardFabrik] 05 2x GPU WR 50754 LIVE on ASUS stage by hiwa and SoF Cebit 2010

[SoF]

Hey guys!

I just came back from Cebit 2010 and maaaaan what a great time again. But this time I was so busy with benching and finding the right system to break a record with that I missed a little bit time to talk enough to all of you guys. Thanks for coming by to the booth all! was sooooo great to finally meet some of you the first time and of course old friends.
Yesterday I was pretesting (kinda ^^) with hiwa - 2 systems and chips in 1,5 hour to figure it all out -.- Today we were unlucky in the morning...maybe one of his chips or a Formula is semi-dead...shut Pi randomly somehow In the afternoon we modded the Maximus III Extreme (thanks giorgio to come and help out searching) and tried to push hard. After having 6.4 GHZ running we fighted with the last 2 GPUs left on air - the best ones are under LN2 or contest-systems...so Otterauge did a crazy thing - he pulled out the qcfx cooler and gave us 2 cards pre-freezed at minus 40 and we isolated pci-e a bit pulled them in and started....still shaking when I think of the run, several times I wanted to gave up as it seemed something was freezing or getting unpredictable but I still can hear hiwa say "one more run, one more run" and YEAH MAAAN WE GOT THAT F***** LAST GOOD RUN can't thank you enough for all you've done for me today, great 05 lesson btw: GPUz wouldn't open for any reason in that last run cards must have been 1300/1300 regarding the screen we did before

[Leeghoofd]

Great work lads, let's hope Hiwa's CPU is still alive

[SoF]

thanks! I am not that sure about the CPU but let's hope the best

[Kabauterman]

I can't understand why I can run 2:8 with a crappy Sabertooth but It isn't possible on the newest Highend Board...

but by the way realy nice Results guys!

[SoF]

I doubt it's high ram you need on clarkdale - qpi and bclk is the trick, specially for 05...but sure higher ram would help on pi ^^ would be killer then, as my 1m perf already was very nice if you take a closer look...

[zalbard]

Insane stuff, congrats on the WR! And the 'last run' situation is very typical imo!

[ZoLKoRn]
