X1800XT benching with Dothan platform

[DStealth]

I have the exact same behavior with my board. Irritating as hell A bios with MP adjustment would be great for this board.

Me too ,but i hit with pata disk @ 129 pci-e when booting 283mhz FSB ,no mods ,so p4gpl-x not so bad ,bud need some mods especially Vdrop ,but nowhere I can find info on it.Same behavior when go direct @ 280 via clockgen freeze,but in small steps no problem.

well,im doing 284 MHz 2-2-2 FSB:RAM 1:1 with my 780/GD1 setup.
2x512 pc3500 Corsair bh-5 @ 3.83v with a "maximizer"

Pi 1MB & LH stable.
So,this mobo eats very well high clocked BH-5.
Thou it needs 132 PCI-E and 1.97v Chipset to work like this.

Macci - go for it with your best KHX.This mobo can handle them.
And btw,if you or Stilt - find a way via WCPREDIT/WCPRSET to change some memory registers for this board - please share it with us.We really need it.


ps.do not use a SATA Hdd.Just a regular P-ATA.

284 2-2-2-5, thats astonishing for 1gb

my dothan 1.86 coming soon, gonna get me some 2x256mb bh-5 and a booster, tho hipro5's "maximizer" is cooler.. how much is he charging for those things

Better with a Highpoint PATA controler..........It can handle @ ~48MHz PCI......Though I think the new ones(SATA based) are both 33 and 66MHz compatible.....

its the only SS left.

My maximizer its somehow like yours,w/o the Display Pannel.
Feeded by 5v Rail and sustain 2x512GB @ 284 MHz very good.
3.83v sharp.Not a single 0.01v up or down in load.
Also,replaced the original C's (2x1000) with 2x2200 for the P4GD1 Ram's circuit.

wow impressive setup with cpu & gpu dice cooled ^^
amazing results on a single card system.
these

[trance565]

i demand you break this dudes records and quickly! xD lol get the record back to extreme systems FTW!

edit : would be nice if you did it using one card too xD but might help to find a crossfire board ... xD

Hey guys. I am very impressed with the performance of this. So I have to get one too. I see that you guys say to not use the sata. On a p4gd1 if you use the onboard controller that does not use the ich6 it would be the same as using a pci sata controller would it not?

[LexDiamonds]

I would recommend to remove that slow card for the faster 7800GTX 512MB

Please, spare me from that

You must admit that everything is pointing in the direction of 7800GTX 512MB being crowned as the king on monday..

That is why we have a seperate thread for it...

Of course

I was just commenting on his comment, which i found irrelevant as well as plain wrong.

How's it going, Macci? Getting a new card on monday?

[caater]

x1800 AGP
wondering if it would be faster with p4c800 than p4gd1+x1800 pcie?
maybe nature and 03+05 are *tad* slower because of lower graphics bus (8x vs 16x full-duplex) ?

[speed bump]

^^^misprint

However 16x PCI-e is barely any faster if not all faster than AGP 8x

[macci]

waiting for faster CPU.
And as far as Mark2001 goes I think I already have the fastest card model =)

What are you getting .Let me gues 780es?

Hay man did you ever phase the card? Whats with aircooling i want to see what it can do with your cooling Man if you get the dothan to 3.8+ and phase the card....... well it should be very intresting score.

All i want to know if the damn thing will have a coldbug. I realy want to get one into my chiller. Now who would get this card first to test it out. HJas to be someone from around here

[drunkenmaster]

macci, i can't remember if you've played with crossfired x800/x850 cards, have you, or anyone else actually tried to plug in a x850 crossfire with a x1800 based card? any chance it might work and boost scores an ok amount for semi cheap?

doesn't work

Don't they have overnite shipping in Finland

Look on the first few pages, he ran dry ice on both CPU and GPU

Kingpin> do the 7800/x1800 cards take a hit running at lower busses? I tested the difference between 4x PCIE and 16x PCIE on my dfi NF4 /w x800pro and the differences were so small they were probably in the margine of good/bad run increase. ~200 points higher in 01 and less than 20 in 05...

[Barr3l Rid3r]

wow!!!!... now i'm looking your photo of x1800xt extreme cooled....is wonderfoul....and the result...more power than 7800gtx sli ...that's great!!!!!!

very compliments macci....and...the temp????
can toy post the temperature of the vga card with picture????

Hey man, are telling me that u can kill your own son?

[k|ngp|n]

When are you getting your 780m macci? I really want to see a 3.8ghz+ dothan with the x1800xt in 01'....I sold my card as it was no use to me above 0c .

[Apple740]

It seems that a lot of XT owners, including me, have problems with Ati tool beta9. It doesn't work properly, or doesn't work at all for some.

Now i wonder why Macci has no problems with it. If i take a look at his desktop pic (page 2 of this topic), i see Ati tool reporting 625/750 as default speed. Actual retail cards are showing 600/700 as default in AT. Retail cards have different 2d/3d speeds.
Macci's XT bios is different?

[macci]

The card I used in those runs was a press sample and has different BIOS. Card has only one clockspeed - 625/750, which is the default 3D speed for the retail cards too. ATITool reports the 2D speed w/ retail cards.

I really want to see a 3.8ghz+ dothan with the x1800xt in 01'...

ME too
Arrives hopefully this week but not sure.
