Here you go, I may need to borrow it off of you from time to time. http://www.cryodepot.com/lab_series.htm

Too expensive. Gotta find 2nd hand

[cadaveca]

Who's got a pot for sale? MY qx @ 1.45v for 4.5ghz needs some cold!

[ZenEffect]

well. unfortunately i dont have the patience to watch a riva tnt2 to run aquamark3 @ .04fps ... nor the patience to let a athlon 1100 run superpi 32m (1 hour, 5 loops completed)

tonight before i go to sleep, i will let it bench and hopefully when i wake up it will be done.

still benching the lo-tech until the ss arrives

what is a boint? lol!

Is that a typo? I have a Pentium 2 450 that can do under an hour for 5 loops. I would think you'd be at the 15min mark or so after 5 loops.

Yeah I'm not even doing 3dmarks or PCmark on the older stuff, no patience either.

Check at the black hole (in Los Alamos), I just got a 25L MVE dewar for $100 + shipping.

128mb of ram... compaq motherboard piece of crap computer dug out of a dumpster just to bench then back in the dumpster it goes after i strip the hd, dvd drive and cd burner.

it is not a typo. its an athlon, not athlon xp. just completing it would give me a 2nd place because it seems that NOBODY wants to wait forever to bench this cpu

[MaxCFM]

Trade ya for my MegaPlex Quad Xeon that takes 1min per gig of ram to boot thats just waiting for it to count up there is no fancy hit ESC or space you just wait but once its going its not bad other than the 16bit color in windows

Will have to call them. Sent them an email but got no respone back. Maybe I can get 2 25L dewars so I can bench for more than 6 hours at a time

[Bobsama]

Just submitted a fury of scores (CPU-Z and the connected SuperPi 1M) for a Celeron M 353--actually the one I benchmarked is ULV. Anyways--I hope I can get at least 5 points--if not more since all my CPU-Z records topped the previous 996MHz and 2 of my SuperPi 1M were above the current record of 79.5s or so.

[Movieman]

Its what happens when you need 1600MHz FSB and all you have are Clovertown CPUs also note they are 2.8GHz which is a "missing" speed step in the official Clovertown list they also do other neat tricks like run in a 4 socket box
Hard to sell Harpertown if Clovertown does so well at 1600MHz these guys don't lag far behind my harpers at the same clock... Now it will be fun to see who clocks better in a DS5400XS 45nm or 65nm chips.

You and I need to talk..

[MaxCFM]

Done with what I have just sitting around, that works... At least till the DS5400XS gets here. Might dig out the old dual cely not many of those and those 300a's used to o/c well
Need to find out what those ln2/DI pots go for that KP has

MM feel free to shoot me a PM...

Go team!

[Bobsama]

Ok well I have my results back from yesterday--CPU-Z and SuperPi 1M were both submitted and netted me 2.8 points a piece, bringing me to 7 points total. Added now a higher CPU-Z, SuperPi 32M, PiFast, and wPrime 32M--so I should have a few more points coming in. I ended up reporting someone's wPrime 32M score since they forgot about 40s and got a few extra points because of it--so now I should have best rank there. Celeron M 353--easy chip to overclock and bench. Also I'm 1GHz stable--which isn't bad considering that the heat-spreader is the single thin sheet of tin underneath the keyboard.

[KirkNash]

Hey IFMU, can you stop by here and bring your HAMMER?..

why didn't you bold the "you guys are doing great" part dude

Nice benching Bobsama!! Racking up a nice number of cups as you go too

[ZenEffect]

just finished my Athlon 1100 benching

sorry about the copy and paste, kind of wake and baked this morning... now im trapped at work
BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD

if only i could complete an aquamark with that riva tnt2 but it takes FOREVER.

[TheKarmakazi]

Yes call -- their email support is horribly slow (i got a return email after 2 months lol). They do have larger dewars, I just wanted a 25L...

At the times you were quoting you are done earlier then expected. LMAO

Just kidding!

actually i did a lot of them twice... apparently i was showing the motherboard in cpuz and not the ram timings
yea... and then the screen saver would crash superpi... then energy saver shutting off the monitor would crash superpi...
it went a little faster this time around because i added an extra 256mb of ram and used softfsb to oc the cpu a whopping 77mhz!
im just glad to be done w/ that pos. in all honesty, if i were just going to browse the web, that machine is not bad at all. pretty snappy in all honesty.

now to crank out this p4... i just hope this asrock motherboard holds out.

[The Nemesis]

I think I had a good night

Sweet. I need lots of LN2.. *drool*

[M.Beier]

Is it by start 7th, or does results on 7th go as well?
I'm going to bench 6+7th

[Warboy]

Well I'm trying to work my magic on my little Q9450

[Bobsama]

Well I have a few more points up my sleeve--I just need to do some more stability testing at higher overclocks on my Celeron M 353. I went from 0 points to 14 points now from five 1st place and one 4th place finish.

Let to do:
SuperPI 32M at higher overclocks
Retry SuperPi 1M at highest overclock
wPrime 32M at highest overclock
wPrime 1024M at highest stable overclock
Get max overclock again and rebench PiFast &c.

[JamesBong420]

only been able to bench for a week or so. and in that week have only been able to get a few benchs in because i would get a 1st place then \/endetta would take my cup.. so i would have to come back and bench 3dmarks all over again..
link to battle=
slowly but surely the points are coming.. gained about 38 points so far.. hoping i can get at least another 50... go go go go go go....
