Try using 2 cores Jor for Pifast, don't think it scales better with more than 2 (not been into core 2 quad lately) and tighten them ram timings... also if it crashes first time, rerun it , it might pass then :

[Jor3lBR]

Sorry thijs, I can't help you with this either. Did you ask in the P6T thread already?

Jor3lBR, you posted a very nice run on your REX, what batch is your CPU? Is it Q820, or Q822? How high did you set Vcore in BIOS?

Maxmem won't help for PIFast, priority will.

Thanks Don I was just warming up the run, it's a Q820 and needs around 1.63vcore for 515x9.5. Temps where around 90oC when I finished cpu run on 3dm06 so I stopped playing with that for a while to go back to the q9550. The room temp was high too 24oC.

Noted and will try again, thank you Leeghoofd

@ Elano: What's the full batch number?

Today we saw some nice scores by the team:
At first, TheGoat Eater made a session with 80 pounds of DICE and his new W3570 on P6T6 WS. He used a MSI GTX 275 for the 3D benchmarks.
He managed to reach 353k in AM3, 37k in 05 and 67k in 03. He ran some PI too, and scored 7.420s in 1M and 15.9s in PIFast. The processor could be clocked up to 5.5GHz for a CPU-Z suicide validation. Look here for more.
Then our S775 quad core expert Jor3lBR is just starting to own another category, scoring 4min18s in WPrime 1024M with a Q9550, thus getting the category record. Congrats!
Linuxfan did also run some benchmarks yesterday, his benchmark of choice was PCMark 05. He reached 22k with a Core i7 920 at 4.3GHz and 17k with a E8400 at 4.5GHz.
Finally, I was bored yesterday, so I ran 01 on my laptop, but I didn't get to 15k, which was really bugging me to be honest.
So I tried again today and after about 3h I had the final result on my screen, reaching 15030 points. That score won't give any new points since I was already the recordholder of that category, but it was fun nontheless.

P6T thread is dead, the P6T WS Pro atleast. i think the pci-e needs to be vmodded b4 i can do some serious bclocking.
I'm thinking about purchasing a X58A-UD7 , they seem nice, and alot seem to get above 230 bclock on air, because the pci-e is factory vmodded.

So im just returning this one

[Don_Dan]

Most likely the easiest solution...

I foresee you'll end up with another Classified sooner or later!

[thijs]

Well, all i dont want to end up with is a coldbooting motherboard, and a classified in combination with a 950 / W3540 is just that , or well, most people i know have issues with that combination. it just needs to boot! :P

[Linuxfan]

Thanks for the update Don_Dan, always nice to see!
Great runs TGE and Elano!

Here is an update from me...
I just posted some more 05 runs on different CPUs I have here... been having fun with a new hdd!
Just wish that i7 I tested yesterday for pcmark05 clocked better than 4.3ghz without HT on water@ room temps... I'm thinking that P6T Deluxe V2 mobo was acting up.
Loaded XP on the T5270 laptop and got some golds back with that CPU...

[Don_Dan]

Please welcome our newest member In-Fluence!

Welcome on board!

Linuxfan, nice PCMark run on that Atom! You were able to beat the rest of the competition by a great margin!

Welcome In-Fluence!
Another killer Q9650 bencher on our team!
Can't wait to see your scores in all of the hwbot benchmarks with that CPU!

Thanks Don_Dan! If I had more time I would have overclocked both of those netbooks... An X25-M SSD in a laptop/netbook is a killer!

[In-Fluence]

Thanks guys. A nice moment for me, to join the team, and to top it off with a 5GHz screenshot & submission just feels too nice

I'm also rather impressed by my trusty old reapers rated at just 1150 - up to 1333 - passed MT5 several times at 5-6-5-15 1295MHz.

I'll really want to try for a better 1Mrun and beat 9.5secs - coming soon

in-fluence

wooooooooooooo the junkie has scored!!! dude hide that x25..all the other junkies will know.. thanks

and vendeta too

they on fire!!!

Edited...
Thanks Honda, I've been having fun!
Got a 5970 coming in again so I'll test it with the new 9.12 driver and boost my last scores...
Good work hitting 5ghz in-fluence and nice submissions vendeta!

And In-Fluence welcome aboard, don;t have too much fun with that Q9650 I still want the golds!

[thijs]

Purchased a X58A-UD7, will be getting it tomorrow if the transporter dont stop with a bit of snow.
Hopefully ill be getting some proper bclocks going now

Let me know how it goes... I might have to switch to it as well from my classified...

[Jor3lBR]

@ Elano: What's the full batch number?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry it took my so long:
E8600 Q820A727

It's 3D benchable on moderate air cooler (Mugen II) all the way till 5Ghz (527x9.5).

I'm so behind this week guys, I'll try to post some more till Friday!

[Hondacity]

hi ladies

i just checked out the team rankings...the greeks have fallen from #2....jmax has soared high again...

ati 5xxx is to be blamed.....LOL

[In-Fluence]

Well, I managed to verify and top my previous wprime score and break 8 seconds which has earnt me a nice 3rd place. I've been out on festive occasions so will be stuttering my progress, but I plan to get a touch higher max clocks as I had a screenie saved at 5025, and a sub 9.5 second Spi run, but my raid0 array got corrupted shortly afterwards so it was a case of reinstall, couldn't even repair it or keep the files

I don't really go through that much hardware, but I have access to an E6600 and E8500 (the latter I know will do 620FSB+). I guess I won't be able to break any records without LN2 on those chips though.

Jmax posted some nice scores yesterday, but we saw a lot of contribution today too. It's even too much to get it all on one screenshot on my laptop, so you'll have to check it out yourself at hwbot.
TRG has pushed some P3s again!
And big congrats to Linuxfan, entering top 20 globally again in single card vantage!

I strongly recommend getting a cheap IDE drive off ebay for benching purpose, when I began overclocking my 680i I had to repair or install OSs almost every day. A dedicated benching HDD saves you from a lot of hassle and will not harm your scores in any benchmark besides PCMarks of course.

[\/ENDE][A]

Hows this for unlucky. Ordered a Classified 200 and an i7 860. Parcel came friday and what did i get....a FTW 200. A board that wasn`t even listed on the store site. Had to RMA it. Got to wait god knows how long for the Classified now. Just when we ge get some real cold weather here in UK... what a bummer.

Or 5 or 6 or screw it get 8

I have pre prepped before I bench at least 2 hd's per OS, one sata and one IDE per OS minimum.

'The more the merrier', I got a couple of old IDE's and some sata's with pre-installed OSes for each controller ICH10 and ICH9:



Preparing my REX this morning for some single stage and and then after Xmas some LN2:

Can somebody help me create those little pic thumbnails instead of the full size images here? For some reason what used to work on other forums doesn't apply here on XS...

That REX board looks great!

@Don_Dan: that was just a quick run... was benching outside in 3C weather and ran out of time with the 5970 as I tested 1x and 2x 5870 just before...
Going to work on another run, I know that GPU can do at least 1250mhz memory and the CPU should do 28k on H2O... 29k is what I'm shooting for...
Also after that I'm going to run 03, we'll see if the new driver will help me get over 137k with the 4.64ghz CPU...
Might pick up a W3540 to go with the classi on cascade if I can get a deal, we'll see...

[TheGoat Eater]

I've been working on squeezing performance from T6600 Gateway NV78 I have since I can't OC it - I will have plenty of Golds and top spots with it

[mk-ultra]

wait, is it christmas yet?



now let's see what this chip can do
