Fun LN2 session at SoF's hood - R.I.P A79A-S - amazing Rampage death!

[SoF]

Hey folks,

well normally I wanted to show 6 gig AMD in Germany at this point but somehow things turned out a little different My pretested Deneb Systen 5.6 gig 1m @ 1.89V wouldn't run even close to it this time. Well but let's start positive into this session with a big



First we had to test CFX - running only 1/2 runs correctly somehow under air (Freakezoit from AF inspecting it -.- )



While Freakezoit was away Matti OC cared about the 790i...



...what caused some fun (he of course let the system alive )


Intel vs. AMD - this pic says everything



Whatever I thought



Cheer's to rene's Q9550 on EP45T-Extreme - 2 hours fun and some medals on hwbot



That's all we can say about 790i on DICE this evening



All the night benching with 3 systems in my hood. I had to warm up my AMD rig for like 4 times as it gave up totally beyond -120°C a couple of times. wasn't as fun as last time with the same components



next morning we started with 4870X2 + 4870



3D Mark 2003 - 113k - AIR - Intel E8600 - Rampage Extreme - E8600 @4450 MHZ





After sleeping I began testing the A79A-S for the last time. Maybe all the LN2 and hours of extreme benching and 1.8V was too much for it at last...



Last scores of A79A-S with LN2 - R.I.P.

4840 MHZ - SuperPi 32m - 16min 5s - 220 HTT- 2420 NB - DDR2 880 - 4-4-4-18-24 - Foxconn A79A-S



4840 MHZ - Wprime1024m - 241.504s - 220 HTT- 2420 NB Takt - DDR2 880 - 4-4-4-18-24 - Foxconn A79A-S (damn I made this CPUz mistake again )



4500 MHZ - 3D Mark 2003 - 102666 - 250 HTT- 2500 NB Takt - DDR2 1000 - 5-4-4-12-20 - Foxconn A79A-S



Some hw pictures of rene and myself before somebody accuses us of hw sharing 2x E8600, some 4870, 4870 X2, boards etc...missing here the rampage dying sometime later and the amd sys with 4870.



The "Blow-Out" of the day with mainly "Auto" voltages", 1.52 PLL and 1.44Vfsb... Luckily it is just the board after I tested everything else on EP45T Extreme. Another dead rampage for no reason again...



We had better days in our oc-history so I had to give my aggressions to some "defenceless objects"



All in all we still had fun and maybe rene can give the X2 / 4870 combo another go on his P45 DS3 he left at home with the LN2 left
