**bazx** · 02-02-2009, 01:56 PM

man am i glad i did not buy a 965

**Riska** · 02-02-2009, 02:01 PM

Great score and congrats with the WR but i have a quistion wy dont you oc the gfx cards more mine HD4870X2 does easealy 900+ cores and 1100+ mem on water

Barely helps in 05 at these CPU speeds so it's not worth the bother if you know you can do it on CPU power alone

Now that they have 47k, it just leaves a little more room for them to spread their legs though

Same here mate

however D0 wil be mine

**K404** · 02-02-2009, 02:19 PM

Im sure the CPU is spreading its legs more......

Breaking new ground here

Can a D0 Nehalem put the bottleneck back to GPU??

**BlueAqua** · 02-02-2009, 02:26 PM

Great results Fugger. I'm always excited to see a new stepping with significant improvements.

**Achill3uS** · 02-02-2009, 02:51 PM

congrats Fugger and Mikeguava

47k seems too easy

if it comes only around june like Sampsa said, you will bored a lil bit

come on, some 965s are still very nice (or close to) even if we compare to this result~

hehe some 965s are ok but there are not enough to take a chance and make me buy one

this 975 has now made my mind up i will wait

Congratz dude, just saw it at FM. You got your wing-mans name wrong in the project title though

So now we have an apples to apples comparison with the phenom 05 score VS Nehalem with the good driver? Did they even use the good driver? So now this is the overall AND official world record or no?

yes, looks like this settles the driver issue..

i didnt realise we are going to claim W.R.s with unreleased hardware

where is the fun in snagging a W.R. if you are the only person in the world that has the hardware lol

**Charles Wirth** · 02-02-2009, 04:33 PM

Thanks everyone, we put a lot of time into pushing 05 way up last night and plan to re-focus on 03 and 06 in a day or two.

Sampsa, DDR3?? significant improvement over DDR2?

I wont be bored, more new coming up.

Show 50k and I'll tell

Just kidding, some improvement yes.

I didn't tell you that I have a tray of them here?

J/K

**Charles Wirth** · 02-02-2009, 04:40 PM

Dino's I am the first to show, others will pop up soon as there are more in the wild.

I could have easily done 47k on my other c0.

You ask me?

I think it is as fun as it can be for anyone chasing wr's.
Regardless of "funding", "contacts", skills.. etc..etc.

Of course, in any competitions where hardware is involved it helps alot to have access to the best hardware.
If you do not have that, you will not set any world records. (Everything else equal).
If there are stringent rules, classes.. there could be another setting.
SB, SS, WRC, Pro-Stock? As in hardware-benching classes?

Personally I enjoy reading about benching and trying to make the best out of any "rig" I am working on.
That is: "Compete" with myself.

**chispy** · 02-02-2009, 05:00 PM

Congratulations guys , sick score. Keep pushing it

it's nothing against you charles or anyone else for that matter.

it's just not been the case (as far as i recall) that we are claiming W.R.s on unreleased hardware

you know about this as well as you went out of your way to point out to me in Taiwan that Intel SSD drives you were using for W.R.s in final stages of competition are readily available at newegg to purchase which is fair enough...not that i really saw that as an issue..... new gen CPU or GFX different story

i thought that GFX guys used to wait till NDA is up and it's official announced and out for this kinda of claim.....i guess CPU is the other important one here...rest who cares...... if sampsa posted and claimed a W.R. on a DDR3 based AMD CPU i would say the same thing

**metro.cl** · 02-02-2009, 06:27 PM

Unleash that beast Fugger

My thinking is that records are records.
I had this discussion before and used this analogy;
The standing track record at Talledega raceway is owned by Mercedes Benz with their factory one of a kind C-111.
You and I can't buy it no matter how much money we have but the record stands.
IBM I beleive holds the record with their Blue Genie as the top supercomputer.. Also something that is unbuyable.
The approved driver issue I understand but hardware is different and as Charles mentioned, there are others that have these chips.

**dinos22** · 02-02-2009, 06:38 PM

guess i jumped the gun if others are also benching these

that means we will see serious competition in the next few weeks?!

lets see some 5.5GHz+ AMD ownage lol

**Charles Wirth** · 02-02-2009, 06:54 PM

Yes there are other chips out there now, I took advantage of the timing gap. It also helps to have good cooling.

**runmc** · 02-02-2009, 07:05 PM

Very nice jump start to a new series Fugger and Mike. My hats off to you guys

**The Nemesis** · 02-02-2009, 08:05 PM

Nice Fugger. Looking forward to i7 920 DO results as well.

**freaksavior** · 02-02-2009, 08:38 PM

I am not sure if i missed it but is the QPI the same as the 965? 6.4?
