ASUS 2900XT Benchin begins

[dinos22]

kick arse

[elmor]

Blitz Extreme is fast, and with X38 we will get an additional boost. 36k next!

[dinos22]

surprised he hasn't used his X38 board
maybe he was showing off the powa of the Blitz board first

extremely impressive and i am sure it would have been even nicer with high FSB chip......Jason need a 600MHz FSB to compete here heh

Elmor how much of a boost are we talking about or are you going to have to be quiet until 24th

I bet he is already benching on X38, is just time to see the results ^^.

Nice 35k Kinc, 36k soon

[Kinc]

Thank you guys

there is more left in this cpu. Have to order new caps so i can mod this extreme for higher cpu clock freq. This chip can do about 460 fsb on blitz with high clock freq.

But know im of to china to visit gigabyte and test their x38 dq6

/Kinc on cell

[Lane-k]

Nice, congratz, 35K is history now..

Gigabyte.. hummm.. good test so..

[blossa]

I hope you will have fun in China and that you give 3D06 a run with that chip.

Congratz!!

jejej congrats marc

the magic touch has returns

Great benching fantastic to see 35K go down - would love to see a bit more detail of the set up used. I know you can not share the GPU bios that the select few get but share the settings that you have on those cards. Clock speed / mem frequency and all importantly the voltages used. Surely those are not NDA as well. After you hard time in Germany I am pleased to see how strong you bounced back from that adversity.

Cards are running only 1000/980MHz with 1.4Vgpu and default voltages for memory. Cpu is running on ~1.84V (need cap mod for it to scale with more voltage). Memory is running on 2.04V 1:2 7-6-5-15 1T TRFC=40. Perf lvl is at 7 for safe runs. Perf. lvl 6 works and will provide about 100 points for next runs.

what?
core at 1000 and you take down 35K

can you PLS take that CPU of yours to china and give that Gigabyte board a hard time with monster vcore to see how it compares to Asus

[KTE]

Marcus bro, congrats!

Fully deserving

Thank you for your reply - much appreciated.

Yes the PCIE bandwidth is a big bottleneck so higher clocks dont help that much on p35.

Ive tested the cpu on the X38 DQ6 and I was stunned by how good it performs and clocks. 5500MHz for 05 wont be a problem and Crossfire on X38is very good. Will have som runs on that motherboard when I'm home again

I also have Maximus waiting at home wich is going to be tested very soon.

[Kinc]

HD2900XT Crossfire runing 1120/960MHz on Maximus Formula X38 with 5.1GHz QX6850. X38 helps crossfire perf. alot!

[krullet]

nicely done marcus..

i didnt think that the ati cards were this strong in 03

[Scimitar]

50 MHz lower core clock than your published run yet all GPU limited tests are faster. Nice!

[elmor]

So as expected nice boost in graphics demanding tests with X38 Can't wait to see what can be done in 05+06.

dinos22 and trox: No X38 for me yet...

LOL wonder why people haven't used previous gigabytes

won't be long after seeing what the potential is i'm sure
plus you're the crazy one around here with all that monster vcore you like to give your CPUs

[Kinc]

I have tested 05 and there is a very nice boost in gt3 of about 6-9 fps depending on cpu clock. For 06 gt2 and gt3 gets a boost. Ofc not that big in gt2 but gt3 is around 5 fps!

I wont be running more on QX6850 now

[BenchZowner]

I wont be running more on QX6850 now

Sounds like somebody received something, a "new" York in his mail

[rra]

Well done on 35k great to see MMmm no more QX6850 this sounds worth waiting for enjoy .

[Kinc]

Just a little test. Not very exciting, but the score is pretty good for the clock I think
