Wooow nice work there !

I'll update tonight the leaderboard.

Updated leaderboard.

Tomorrow is the last full day. I'm going to say that the deadline is 8am Saturday UK time which is probably midnight on the Pacific coast USA time.

We have had 3 dead cards up to now I think so approx25%. As a last day challenge for people who have great gpu's but poor memory there will be a special prize for anyone doing 3v through nature on the gpu.

Just send a screen print of the rivatuner temps through the run and perhaps one of a voltmeter reading and you will be entered. Can anyone get to the end of nature with 3v on the core?

Would be awesome if a company donated us some cards, I've sworn off buying anymore hardware until I either get a second job or sell some gear

That was a nice setup Johnny, esp the memory containers!

What happened with the DI loop?

Cheers man, yeah was hoping that I could get alot more from the memory with some cold, guess not.

The DI loop is currently being put to use on something quite different, stay tuned

So the mem cap mods actually hindered your OC on RAM?
Hmmm, might pull mine off tonight then since im not able to do sweet all on my memory.

Guess 3V will be my last run tonight, and for February

Seems so, dunno every card is different - Seems the excessive capacitance was not liked by the Qimonda, either that or they have very strict capacitance guidelines. I unsoldered a ceramic cap in that area too and lost it so popped in another one or reasonably similar capacitance and it knocked off about 20MHz

I take it for signature if it's ok, made my night

go for it man

awesome post Johny

Cheers Dinos your card was looking pretty crazy too

Wooow nice work there !

I'll update tonight the leaderboard.

Thanks Andy glad to be of service to the UK bench scene
