Any GTO/GTO2 > 16 pipelines results yet?

[Supertim0r]

I have a 80mm fan blowing over the voltage regulators on the card. They still hit 50C under load which is starting to get a bit warm. Moving voltage above 1.6ish started to really skyrocket this temp.

solved the problem with a Sanyo Denli HIGH cfm (untouchable before...cool to the touch now)

lol nice..

which fan is it on the tape?

C3D X800GTO. clocks achieved with stock cooling. (pic was taken with VF700Cu so temps are about 8C below stock temps)

[\Karting_freak]

impressive!

I am falling in love with this card

please show us ur score in 3DMARK05 & 03

but it is too slow for nfsmw demo =o( 1280 x 960 but only ave 40 fps

temp full load 39C

but in winter it will be colder =o)

Here is my power regulator cooling.. Came from a thermaltake volcano 11.

I attached it with a mixture of Arctic Lumiere and silicone sealer.

I also sanded down the power regulators to get a better contact patch and to flatten them out so that the contact patch was as large as possible.

lol@ rookierkiller.
u lucky bastard.
here, its usually cooler inside than outside (California)

maxxx-
that looks like an open filing folder.

[MaxxxRacer]

lol man.. never thought of it that way.

i got a problem here... I cant tell what core m C3D GTO is... it doesnt say R420 or R423 on the core.. so im a bit baffled.. ATI tool says 423 but from what ive read, doesnt mean anything.

here is a picture.

any help would be greatly appreciated. btw i would just flash it but my comp is down right now while im getting a new cpu.

that's the r423. for some reason, ATI decided not to print "r423" on the core. it's like that for all r423 cores.

what?! I run 1280x960 just fine :O

kinda funny that your full load temp is lower then my idle, haha

[rookiekiller]

hihi, yeah, it is nature power =O) but now outside is app. 13-14C, but this week it will be 6-7C hihihi
in january and february i will enjoy the temp of mothernature =o)

idle temp is 26C

[MaxxxRacer]

thanks for the heads up 5-clicks.. I was hoping that it just MIGHT be a R480 as it didnt say.

anybody else noticed there overclock diminish over time? mines vmodded and the pc used to freeze at anything over 620 core , every now and again i started getting freezes more and more often whilst gaming , so ive ended up going down to 600 on the core to stop it

[JimNastics]

I need help choosing which card to keep, here's what I've got:

Sapphire X800GTO2 - modded to 16pp and o/c to 500/600 - 3DMark05: 6200

Connect3D X800GTO (card 1) - modded to 16pp and o/c to 570/570 - 3DMark05: 6520

Connect3D X800GTO (card 2) - modded to 16pp and o/c to 580/555 - 3DMark05: 6590

I seem to have got a real duffer of a GTO2 which is a shame. My instincts tell me to keep the card with the highest clocked core which would be the 2nd C3D GTO which also scored highest in 3DMark05, however the mem is lower than the GTO2 and first GTO. Is there any benefit in keepin the GTO2 with it's R480 core and 1.6ns mem even though it clocks lower and scores less? Which card would you keep?

you sould add a good fan over the power reg area...look @ post 702...helped a LOT.

[MaxxxRacer]

or post 710 for some more hardcore mosfet cooling


here is a 3dmark 01 score with my machine. X800GTO with 16p 620/580 clocks on water, w/o vmods.

[principino1984]

here is my new record with daily use system...no vmod...

[MaxxxRacer]

My 05 results.. still some more headroom i think.

i already have a 120 mm propped up blowing over the whole side of the card , including the power regulators.
thinking it may be cause ive moved house and my pc is no longer below the window , and ambient temps is a bit higher. was quite cold out today around 5 - 6 c so hopefully its like that tomorow and ill open the windows and see if it goes back up , then do some runs with my opteron 146 when it arrives

[MaxxxRacer]

yep kohan.. whats ur max score with ur new cpu man?

I think I will vmod it soon and see what I can max out at. I'm hoping I can hit 7800, maybe 8K if im really lucky.. Main think I need to work on is getting the ram mhz up.



Well I got 7581 this time in 3dmark. I had to get a fake liscence key for 3dmark as it would keep crashing in the loading of the cpu test (cpu is totaly stable), and thus I cannot submit the results. Please note that I do NOT support any form of piracy and if you wish to use the full features of 3dmark 05 or any of the other 3dmarks you should purchase a legitimate key.
