    Smile [TeamAU] Unigine Heaven - Xtreme Preset (DX11) record

    Hey fellas

    Had a bit of a play with 4way GTX580 today and after a bit of trouble shooting and some interesting findings, I did a few runs in vantage and Unigine Heaven. Man these 580s are monster power guzzlers. I tripped my house power twice today and then decided to run two separate plugs from garage and bench room which sorted that out LOL. I'm still only testing at light loads.

    I also found 12V rail getting hammered on input with the PSU powering the CPU and a couple of GPUs dropping and drooping on 12V rail pretty seriously. I saw 11.78v on corsair and then swapped to Antec which took an even bigger hit but since you can adjust the rail manually i compensated for it.

    Hardware setup:
    • GIGABYTE X58A-UD9
    • Intel Core i7 980X
    • C-BuZz SS -30C
    • Kingston HyperX
    • WD 600GB SATA3 VelociRaptor
    • 4x GIGABYTE GTX580 GPUs on water (Corsair Nautilus 500 with extra rad, 3x swiftech + 1x Dtek GPU blocks)
    • Corsair AX1200 + Antec TP1200
    • Windows 7 32bit






    Very nice thermal paste for watercooling, virtually no delta even with my ghetto WC setup . Had a 33C ambient today and GPUs were idling at 37C with volts and forced 3D mode, higher under load by a few degrees, especially the dual rad setup.



    Still using my trusty Corsair Nautilus 500s with a bit of help



    I used 3x Swiftech blocks and one Dtek, still doing a great job (who needs full cover blocks when you can butcher heatsinks (j/k)







    Got a world record in HWBOT Unigine Heaven with 4804 points , I'm sure this will shoot past 5K once LN2 starts cranking on GPUs

    http://hwbot.org/community/submissio....76_dx11_marks

    The benchmark looks absolutely amazing, such a breath of fresh air from what I'm used to seeing with FM benchmarks and it actually works lol. I spent two hours today just trying to get combined score on 3DMARK11 to finish and could not, kept getting errors even at stock settings....wtf FM

    note to self, dont play with VM values in windows again on 3D OSes lol

    Good job Dino! I saw your pm a bit late I see

    Why do you use single stage on your CPU, when it is running only 4700MHz?
    I think we need more awards at HWbot. You would get "messiest setup" award easily with those photos
    You are as good as your samples are!

    Congrats my good old friend Dinos , awsome results , Im surprised at how well your old trusty corsair nautilus handle all that heat , maybe you change that old dirty full algae water you had in your loop for so many years , great going , next stop i imagine Full LN2

    Very nice, Dino! Good job! Now you have a rig that might run Unigine based games if they ever come out.

    petri ambients in australia are from around 35 celcius to 40 celcius at the moment,

    so our air cooling and SS are really struggling...

    i know where dino benches has no air conditioning so i bet it is VERY hot

    got to about 35C ambient bench nearing end of session actually you are right

    i need a bloody aircon in the bench room too LOL

    i like ghetto petri
    btw yeah my SS is also struggling atm i have to get it vaccumed and replace a part and regas again. It could run up to 5GHz 3D that day which is not the greatest but that CPU is also not that great. Why would i need MAOR anyways for heaven

    Chispy yeah dude changed tubing but LEFT THE WATER LMAO

    Ahh..yes. Sorry, I forgot it. We have -25C and 70cm of snow here
    My room temp is around 22C though

    By the way.. R3E is super efficient in this test

    Or FW266 > FW265?

    New driver should be good/better with single card setups.

    3DM11 is totally useless with this driver

    And a nice messy setup, Dino

    , maybe you have become too attached to the living creatures on your water loop , those white and green algae are sexy .

    It worked out just fine mate , i like ghetto mods too
