3 HD4890 will be impressive. Can't wait to see your results

Sounds like you had a great time with good people.
Props to AMD for this one!

I had a blast. Now we just need to get you benching a Phenom II rig, all you have to do is keep the pot full of LN2

Nice run Gom. Shame you been having such bad luck with boards. waching all this fun you guys had has got me calling all over the state trying to score some LHe wich is proving to be dificult not to mention the $$$!

Thanks man. LHe honestly is too expensive to use even for extreme benching. It was a lot of fun to watch, but I'd rather stick with LN2 and be more cost efficient. I think the LHe bill for the three days was around $5k

OMG i want that thing on my back yard. jeezz thanks mate im definitely gonna have wet dreams tonight

Me too! I'd settle with a smaller one, that one holds 900 gallons. I'll take a 200 gallon tank to start.

Glad you made up with the ASUS board and pulled ahead at the very end gom. Especially after watching you struggle and try at least 3 different setups with the UD5P.

Now that I have 2 of the gigabyte boards I think I'm gonna have to swap one for that ASUS board. Looks to do better with the chips altogether.

Thanks for the help piecing together that last 790FXT-UD5P. I really wish I had swapped boards much earlier, the ASUS BIOS/board was just slightly more mature and resulted in slightly better performance.

Nothing wrong with the board Slappa, just requires a little more work and time on the board to learn its tricks. Gomeler has had maybe 4-5 days max on the board, I'm sure he will figure out its secrets soon enough. We have had the NB up to 4700 on the gigabyte.....4600 is the max we have had the asus.....

I've been benching with that board for a while actually. You are the only person I know that has been pushing NB on that board. Even Peter Hardman was stumped by it. The Asus M4A79T-Deluxe loves my Elpida though, so I went to Fry's today and picked one up for testing. Bought 2 4870x2 waterblocks also, going to put the cards on chilled water next week with a retail CPU

For reference NB clocks best when memory is stable and IMC is happy.....IIRC you were using rear slots....the gigabyte works best with elpida in front slots Or at least thats what my testing has yielded. Give it a shot. Check out the gigabyte thread, Msimax is working with elpidas atm Not the only person, Msimax has been pushing the NB as well....he's also worked closely with me so knows most of the tricks.

I was using D9GTR like you and copied your settings. I'll stick with the M4A79T-Deluxe for right now

True but we forgot to take one thing into consideration.....I was using 2 sticks binned from 6 sticks total, and had them Id'd right down to which slots they needed to be installed in for max clocks...........they probably needed to be toned down a tad to say 1660-1680, the 1720 I was running was so close to the edge of stability its not funny.

This was msi's chip on the gigabyte.

I would say just sit down with it for awhile man, you will figure it out, don't count it out quite yet

i think i'll bench on 2nd june(celebretion of repubblic here in italy, so i'm not going to school) and 6-7-8nd june

i've 50l of ln2


for you wich is the best bios for m4a79-t?

[Lightman]

Congrats on your scores [XC] gomeler!

Following your footsteps I will attempt to bench upside down next time Sick idea!

Also that LN2 tank would look perfect in my garden! A bit of engineering and one would make nice 24/7 cooling solution for Phenom II
