8800GTS: 71.5k 01, 229k AM3, /w water cooled xeon

[afireinside]

Was pretty cold out tonight (25f) but not very windy

Vdd modded the 8800 with SMD grabbers to 2.05vdd and took my mem from 1025 to 1125
Ramped the vmch mod on the board up to 2.1vmch
vdimm = 2.8v
vcore = 1.6v
vfsb = 1.4v

3060 xeon L630
xbx2 vmch modded
EVGA 8800GTS 660-670 core 1100-1025 ram vdd modded
crucial ballistix PC5300 3-3-3



Can't believe my ram went that high! On AM2 I couldn't get past 467mhz at the same voltage, and 975 should be harder to clock on! Nature was at 670 core, rest of the run at 660. Nature, dl, and ll at 1125 memory, rest at 1100. Started artifacting so I backed down.

670/1125 470*9



An earlier 06 result



470 fsb started crapping out

After that I decided to try some pi and even 467*9 would BSOD. I tried 2.52vdimm (this was with my 2gbhz now, 4-4-4-4) and it worked for a bit but 1m would crash after 2 runs and 8m wouldn't go. No idea what happened, maybe my room warmed up.

Ummmmmmmmmmm can you VMOD my GTS!!!!!!!!!

Ill, ill...................get back to you, have to think of something.

They are IHSless...............:-)

That is bloody insane chap!

[NickS]

Nice results Sean

Ummmmmmmmmmm can you VMOD my GTS!!!!!!!!!

So you want your card to look like this?

[Supertim0r]

really nice scores AFI !

congrats !

[bikester1986]

You should put a Tuniq on the gts i heard it PWNS!

[bikester1986]

Did i mention it pwns??


THE TUNIQ PWNS!

[afireinside]

matt gtfo my life and stop telling me the tuniq pwns in 4 different places

[NickS]

Hmm.. that'd be interesting though, a Tuniq on a GTS

TRY IT!!!

[bikester1986]

I think i am going to work on that

i heard it pwns the tuniq that is!

hey Sean what do you call those clips for voltage mods i want to go and get a few of those....as they are not as messy as soldering

[afireinside]

They're called SMD grabbers. Not sure where you'd get them over in Australia. Maybe mouser.com ships internationally?

[bikester1986]

maybe you can send them to me sean?

btw the Tuniq PWNS!

[fhpchris]

You beat my X6800 with your Xeon!

Mad scores and clocks, thats what I like to see!

[master_gokhan]

nice scores.. Cant believe how strong G80 GPU..

[eva2000]

crazy stuff your 8800GTS wiped the floor compare to my 8800GTS especially in 3dmark2001/05 bit slower in 3dmark06 heh

[Gautam]

Awesome work dude!

Wuss mods FTW eh.

[Zeus]

Great scores but why is CPU-Z showing multi 6 instead of 9 in some screens?

[Omastar]

Man, SMDgrabbers mod? Hardmod it.

Nice scores, though. I'm liking the 4.1GHz on water.

[phelan1777]

seriously, if you are willing, I will ship you one of the GTS, so you can vmod it.


Hell i'll meet you in Cherry Hill. :-P I can hop the PATCO line, or you meet me in Philly.

Forgot to disable ESIT/speed step, drops multi to 6x at idle.

[Zeus]

You're taking off the heatspreader of those cards but haven't got the bawls to do Vmods, just with smd grabbers?

Vmod with smd grabbers is a piece of cake, easier than pencil mods even.

Even soldering to the IC's legs isn't that hard.

[phelan1777]

well I may have popped my IHS, but I won't do a VMOD, however I would be willing to put a card up for VMOD, see what it can do for Temps and all out performance.

[afireinside]

I didn't take the IHS off, phelan did. I wanted to get the mod done quick and safe. SMD grabbers were the easiest way. Pencil, solder, or grabber, I got the mod done so who cares. I've full modded an x800pro and two 7800GTs so it's not like I can't solder.

I was talking to Phelan, should have quoted him, sorry.
Mods are mods, as long as they work it's fine.
