Give a legit link, and I will update the list.

Some guidelines:
1. Post the link to your result
2. What brand, type and clocks of your video cards
3. Your processor and clock rate
4. Your cooling method (optional)


If it is all in your sig, then no need to post the details.

Let's see those scores!

I will update the list every evening. More often when I get a chance.

05 score

need new PSU before i can start overclocking.

[lostark374]

sorry i should of posted more info on mine they are evga ultras it reads the clocks wrong they are 446 x 1140 stock cooling and its a 3500+ newcastle 11 x 240 1.55v home built 404a phase

[dwwalker14335]

Scores and info updated!

[GRAFiZ]

Great thread my friend... I appreciate it. I'm going to shoot for a higher number soon.

By the way, my nick is GRAFiZ, not GFRAFiZ. Hate to complain though.

Thanks!

[dwwalker14335]

Sorry, typo and fixed! Glad to help.

[lostark374]

ultra's not gt's
sorry but i paid a fortune for them

Actually, I should have known just by looking at the clocking. Edited. Hmmm. Going to have to keep a copy of the list on my desktop. Easier to edit. Less chance of mistakes than the little editing screen.

[mdzcpa]

This score is a bit old, and I've done better, but its a start. I'll have more tonight.

2003 score: 23, 627 http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=3637663

[GRAFiZ]

Finally... I broke 10K. It's odd, it seems like 3dMark2005 has no problem running up to 9.5K or so, but getting it past 10K is hard.

Anyhow:

Sorry to keep changing my scores, I'm still trying to figure out how these A64 machines work. Hope I can still improve.

Thanks again!

Great score everyone... just ran 3dmark2003...

It's fun running with such a pack as you all, however you're FX-55's are certainly showing my machine a thing or two!

Well, I hope to improve these scores.

Thanks!

lostark374
you cpu is at 2640? you need phase for that?

[lostark374]

yeah this cpu is crap 2400 on air 2812 on phase but not stable ....it will do better then 2640 but ive had no time to fool around with it

i picked up a week 47 3000+ winne but its crap too i sold my fx55 and im waiting to pick up another one

[dwwalker14335]

Nice scores, guys! List updated.

The MSI K8N Diamond is in and running. Time to do some benches

Quick take:

The MSI K8N-SLI PCI-E slots are really tight, especially compared to the ASUS A8N-SLI. I can't imagine two stock HSF Ultra's breating in here. The top card would not get very much air flow.

The northbridge fan is a lot quieter on the MSI. The ASUS sounds like you have a 15,000 RPM SCSI drive running in your system.

The MSI would not boot dual channel without flashing to the 1.1 beta BIOS first (dated 1/14/05).

EDIT: As I thought, the MSI was able to get me past 11K (11049) in 05 and 24K in 03!

Run 290 FSB, 1T, 9X multi

Still pushing upward.....

[althes]

you boys are tearing it up.

[drcrawn]

SLI - SMELL ALL EYE

Lardarse still holds the top SLI spot IMO, even if it isnt up there anymore.

But you guys have some nice scores and I *might* be a tad jealous, maybe.

Only problem is this list is gonna change faster than Britney Spear's husband.

[dwwalker14335]

I agree, Shimano is the king. I wish they had preserved the previous results. I really wanted to analyze those results.

I have to say, this MSI board is impressive. I am running a 9x multi and 2.7 GHz, so 300 FSB on the memory, 1T, 2.5-4-3-10. All I can say is, wow!

Bumped the video clocks to 490/1260 (according to Coolbits).

New scores:

05 - 11,526 491/1255

Scores updated!

[GRAFiZ]

dwwalker14335, your scores are incredible!!!

What kind of cooling you using?

Also, I just got a new score, not much higher, but I gained a few. I hope I have room to improve.

New score: 10169

2 x BFG 6800 GT OC @ 390/1100, A64 3500+ @ 2.5 GHz XP-90

Thanks again!!! I love this thread!!!

[dwwalker14335]

GRAFiz, your score has been updated!

Thanks for the kudos. Lists always seem to spark a little friendly competition. And, it's nice to see what others are doing to get their scores up every little bit. I found my best trick is to take your memory as high as possible. FSB is key. CPU makes less of a difference on 05 than any other bench. So, I get my RAM to 300 FSB, the mem transfers over 8000 Mb/s, then run the benches. Seems to work well. So, if you have an FX-55, for instance, it is better to run at 300x9 than 270x10 or 245x11 which are all basically equal the same CPU clock. But, pretty much everyone here at XS knows that

As for my system, I am use Innovatek watercooling. Nothing fancy, but it is effective.

Looks like I lucked out on the video cards. They are clocking very well. And, the MSI Diamond is turning out to be a very good board. I bought it as an interim until the DFI arrived to market, but the MSI might be a keeper.

[H2OGun]

dwwalker14335, your cards are very nice clockers. Just started OCing my brand new Inno3D 2 x 6800 Ultras and here are my best runs so far.

3DMark 2003 - 23245 @456/1154 MHz

3DMark 2005 - 10890 @459/1181 MHz

EDIT: Added some of the requested infos:
CPU: FX-55 @10x290
Board: DFI nF4 SLI-D
Cooling: CPU and GPUs are all watercooled.

[Kanavit]

God, those are some sick scores. I'm jealous.
