ready to bench, but time to sleep

Can you guys keep the core up high, with the mem at 650+ on stock cooling?

With my X800XT-PE, it was always a trade off. I had to walk a line between really high mem, or good mem and high core. I have my X850XT-PE and DFI sitting here...but PC Power has my PSU right now Seeing all of this makes me anxious to get it back.

wow do you think itll work with 9700s and 9800s? can anyone test it out?

[twilius_basic]

holy mother.. it got me from 635 to 670 and my frame's are up as well..

no added voltage no added cooling..

you can see i started to artifact at 681..

Wow, you and Mr.roadster getting big gains

Any idea if this helps on a plain AGP X800 XT? Mine comes in Tues. and I will do some testing Seems like a lot of free Mhz for changing one timing

[misteroadster]

Héhé i'm happy to help you Pc-Ice
It would be the hell if we could save our magics timings , anybody know a good Bioseditor ?

tried it on X800XT-pe, and it works too, only no gain in performance :

570/640
14345
570/600

14316

so, it works, but lowers performance.

Hi,

I just changed mu Ram TRP from 5 to 6 and got from 607mhz to 660mhz benchable.

This is to hot.

What can I get more if I change trcdrd to 8?

Anymore more memory tweaks??

PC ICE, can you do a run at 635mhz stock/tight timings, and 685mhz with the 2 looser timings? Just Nature 2K1 would be fine. I'd like to see if your ~50mhz mem gain was offset by the higher timings. Thanks

And please post back ASAP with cascade results

[charlie]

so........ bottom line, is the x800xt Pci-express FASTER than the x850xtPE?????

[cantankerous]

will this work on a vivo flashed X800 pro to XT AGP?

[Gamer]

here you go..it's not a huge jump..but it's not lower niether..

I'll try it on 3D01 too, maybe I get a better result.

[twilius_basic]

Thanks for doing that m8 So to make sure, the 256fps score was at 540/635 stock timings, the 260fps run was 540/685 loose timings? Or am I mistaken....

[Trixxy]

Changing those 2 timings didn't do much for my mems, went from about 666MHz with default timings to about 675MHz (AGP X800XT PE).
My score was lower though as the increase in clock speed wasn't enough to counter the performance drop from looser timings.

Man... I just installed watercooling and anything above 600Mhz on the core will cause ATItool to lose its temperature readouts.

Also, my X850XT PE, even with ramsinks, can't seem to get at 590 Mhz stable, and I say many of you going above 600Mhz easily with the memory? My brand is a Connect3d X850XT PE. I tried tweaking the memory options to PC ICe's, but I still get artifacts when testing in ATItool.... any suggestions... or do I need a vddq and vmem mod.

[misteroadster]

RMA it.

[quicksilverXP]

it's OEM

[misteroadster]

no problem here with AM3 :
725/705 !!!
This benchmark hate high Vgpu.
1.6v max here.

Odd... with a WInchester at 2700Mhz with memory running 1:1, I only get 30K with clocks of 600/600.... shouldn't I at least get around 32K?

[misteroadster]

No, there is a huge difference with 3Dm01 between 1MoL2/512MoL2 , it's normal.
there is about 300Mhz difference.

I'm getting the same results (30.7k) with my 3000+ winnie at 2655. Card clocked at 600/630, stock cooler.

You guys take a look at Dave's score:

32674 w/ 272x10 and 571/594. He is a real good tweaker.

Looks like your scores are low.

[twilius_basic]

Yeah they are a lot less than 1mb chips at Drago Low (don't think they are too bad at Drago High), but they make up for it elsewhere. Unrealneo reckons that a s939 Winny is comparable to a s754 Claw when both are tweaked....

[Jupiler]

Changing drivers and swapping to 2*512MB Corsair BH5 got me a nice boost.
Should do a clean install though, as I had a 6800GT before that, just uninstalled the nvidia drivers and installed the Cat's.
Corsairs ran at 248Mhz, 3.2V, card at 600/620

check out what i get when i mess with even trying to get to the mem timimg's with ati tool..

lol, i am having the same problem. i thought it was me going crazy from staying up so late overclocking, so i went to bed...

[Geforce4ti4200]

winchesters are still slower than claws cause the 512k cache hurts drag and car low quite a bit. Just ask Eshbach, he can beat the 32674 w/ 272x10 and 571/594 with 100MHz less cpu on the claw. With an fx55 youd need even less MHz cause of dual channel. Not to say winnies are bad, they are very good and their higher overclocks make up for it, plus Venice will come and those will crush claws due to sheer MHz. You could always opt for a San Diago and probably should if you have a $500 gpu, a $400-500 cpu wouldnt be out of the question
