Kinc found a picture on his USB flash drive

[gunit]

so the 2900 XT did 950mhz core on the stock cooler with just a volt mod???

The 30k picture was not suppose to be released until tomorrow, but I guess we can't do much about it now...

Sad that you can't trust people.

We have more though, but have taken precautions. I don't know what to say about this really.

Nice result Kinc!
What kind of cooling do you use?

[Sampsa]

Radeon HD 2900 XT will be interesting card in 3DMarks, especially 05

Good job Kinc!

idiot

Nice result!

[gunit]

why did the mem go down to 999 from 1120?

I certainly don't hope you're referring to me.
I had nothing to do with this, but can just conclude that someone took the time to sit around and spam Kinc's server with random filename hoping to get lucky.

The picture was uploaded for other than the general public. Kind of sad people don't have better things to do.

but it was to be expected, isn't this like throwing gasoline on a fire hoping it won't ignite?

Indeed it is. I just don't see the point of name-calling, especially as the person above have no idea of what actually happened.
Kinc was perhaps a bit careless, but I know why he did it and neither I nor anyone else thinks this was his fault this leaked. None of us really expected people to be this desperate, which we only have ourselves to blame.

Both techPowerUp and VR-Zone have been set up to similar things, we all look kind of stupid by now.

[gunit]

blame, not blaim.

[Kinc]

Thank you all

Great job kinc as always ATI always rocks in 05'. Can't wait to see Sami in action again too. Long time coming for that. I thought the 2900 would really give it to the ultra in 05', more left? Closer than I thought.
What about the rest of the benches....06,03,01,am3? After NDA?
How close are the 2 gpus in those?
Ultra isn't tapped out yet guys, but it looks to be a good fight shaping up in 05 for sure.

I'm pretty sure there is alot left in the card. The reason why I cant go higher is that the cascade cant keap up with the card. Imagine a R600 running 1.46V (stock 1.2V) and 1150MHz. Hotter then the Sun. For 1 test I have been able to run 1204MHz with this cascade. Core temp is close to 0C during load wich is silly really

For rest of the Marks R600 will need a new driver, wich is around the corner i hear.

I have tested to lower volts to 1.0V to test for coldbug and -82C core temp no problem at all. Not even in post. R600 is a ln2 baby for sure

[Lane-k]

So it was under cascade? not Dry Ice or LN2...? ... Nice..

Omg, cascade + 1.46v = +/- 0°C.

When will you test the cards with ln²?

[blind_ripper]

lol that poor cascade , 1.46vcore and the temps go 0°C .
looks like we have a new winner under the hotty's , great work now get those containers off ur's and run some LN²

You should finish your containers

Simply WOW!!!

It's bad that it happend but as far as i know non of this SS should have been posted if you signed an NDA.

Now I'm interested, great news kinc thanks!

Indeed, but there has been no mention what so ever from our behalf what card we're talking about. This unnamed VGA card is way overdue and not offering a peek at what we're about to embark upon seems like an even bigger crime.
Besides if I know my ATI, we (and by we I mean the enthusiasts) are truly loved by ATI. There's nothing they love more than seeing us push their hardware further and further

[IvanAndreevich]

Doesn't look too bad. I wonder how it will do in games.
