I will be crunching again in memory of Jon (loonym) as it was his passion and I hope my effort will help someday to find new treatments

[Linuxfan]

Got the UD7 board in this morning, going to test it tonight on H2O outside in the cold with the W3540 and 5970... We'll see what I can do!

[Don_Dan]

Let's all have a moment of silence guys for a fellow team member that has passed.

This is the saddest moment in a while.... Jon will not be forgotten.


TRG, you got PM.

[Linuxfan]

Time for me to get back to work

Prepping OS's as I type.

Dunkin donuts ln2 pouring cups make an appearence once again

Something about 2400 watts of power is just liberating.

Good luck with the Gigabyte 5970 cards! Hopefully you can run them with over 1000mhz core with some extra voltage.

Edit: Jor3llBR/Elano, when did you get a Cascade?
Great work getting 1st with the Q9550 in Pifast!

Looks like 980 is good without frame loss on air.....then again I have no plans to use air

Hey Linux, thanks!

I don't have a cascade yet (sorry I selected wrong cooling on the hwbot tab)! Trying one get one this year.

You lucked out on that monstrous ruffus man, I would love a unit like that!

3d03 5970's scores "fixed", 05 scores "fixed" sort of, aquamark fixed well I saved to usb, bad idea but it moved me no ranks. 320K is a heck of improvement from my 240K........all done in vista

Very impressive scores with your AMD setup and the 5970 on some nice air clocks!
Too bad the multi GPU scores aren't worth much at all anymore... those scores are amazing!
320k is much much better but you would be pushing 400k with a i7 system on LN2....

Nice LN2 S775 CPU run there MTP04!
Jor3lBR, I see you're pushing hard for every gold you can get again... got the X3380 Superpi32M beat today!
Now I guess you need to get the Pifast and Superpi 32M records back with the Q9650....

[Jor3lBR]

@chew
Awesome Aq3! I need to learn the ropes for that bench with ya

@Linux
Yes I know DDR3 board incoming to get those back I got DDr2 very close on that pifast I did 18.70 against his 18.63 I guess I can squeeze in those 7ms but DDR3 at 1800Mhz would be much easier.

Sent you a PM! Keep pushing!

DDR3 will help a lot in 32M.

Are you using prioaff for PIFast already? Or pause line in PIFast to set priority and affinity through taskmanager?

I probably will need that pause line cmd (haven't used that one before) but prioff only hurts on quad cores.

From what I found out the more the cores doing PiFast the better for the scores here on Quads...

Interesting, I always thought switching between cores made PIFast run slower.

Try the pause line, that's the easiest way for setting priority and affinity imho.

We should convince hoss331 to join the team, total domination of the Q9650 category. ^^

Well I'll get those 2 last ones soon enough just need time Same for the Q9550 I will get all but Cpu-z unless DDR3 can give me a top frequency boost or a lower temp coldbug.

I'm sure you'll make it!

WPrime 32M would look nice though, top five belonging to XS.


Did you notice AndreYang and nickshih went back to TeamTaiwan?! More than 3200 points with only two members. Crazy...

Anyone know why they left PURE? I guess it's only a temporary move.

[Don_Dan]

Great work by MTP04 pushing old 65nm Core 2s to the limit on his REX. ( I gotta get one too ).
Very nice work thebluemeanie1, scoring almost 55k in 03 with a single 9800 GTX.
Xtreme_Solid has to push some more!

A big congrats goes out to Jor3lBR for breaking the Q9550 32M WR yesterday!

HWBot is recalculating points again, I think we gained some.


To the guys that were in Vegas... Brian, Ryan, Charles, Dave and who else. I want to see pics and scores!!

[MTP04]

Thanks for the kind words Don_Dan and yes if you haven't owned a REX yet and your still benching socket 775 cpus, then I strongly recommend getting one.

The SuperPI 1M E6300 run I submitted is garbage and should be quicker for the clocks. I think my OS got damaged from all the crashes I ran into while I was trying for max fsb, I'll probably rebench later on.

[thijs]

About time, wednesday im getting my 15L and 18L filled with some fresh new liquid nitrogen.

Going to bench my 5770 for the last time, but first time on LN2. last time with dry ice on the 5770 i was limited as hell by the temp, so i expect to get 1200+ core. my cpu can go alot higher then previous 5ghz vantage and 06 ( 200 / 300 mhz higher ) , combination of both, with the new 9.12 catalyst should make me reclaim my beloved gold cups!

Going to try to bench aqua / 03 / 05 aswell, so need to try a bit tomorrow if i can get a decent run going on AIR, never really ran those benchmarks actually. o well, lots of fun inc!

[Linuxfan]

Pushed another 5870 on air in Vantage and maxed out at 1064/1272... got a better score than before though my CPU on H2O is still limiting me!
Hopefully I'll get the cascade running again this week and really push some 5870 scores across the board....

@thjis:
Run all of the 3dmark benchmarks! Looking forward to it!

Nice work! Almost 100k in 03 is sick!

HWBOINTS revision 3 adjustment "more points for exotic hardware" in effect.

I gained a few points, check your scores!

Too bad Smoke joined OCClub a minute ago, they gained 1500 points and two ranks.
Just 1020 points to go into top 10... Let's make it happen!

[Linuxfan]

Gotta recruit another bencher, run multiple gpus for team points, push past 300 hardware points for the team, and get on cascade.
There is a little new year's resolution.
I'll try to get these goals accomplished this and next month.

Hope to see some more results from billdavis and xoqolatl with the new 9.12 driver on their 5870s!

[G.Foyle]

I can't get LN2 temporarily, and benching HD5870 on dice is not fun after you've tried LN2 on them.
I'm going to bench some older GPUs on dice soon.


EDIT: Congrats thijs, you have been mentioned in The Overclocker! Go to http://cde.cerosmedia.com/The_Overcl...bb6e3e3558.cde, page 29.

[Jor3lBR]

I still need to freeze one of my REX and the E8600 to get some big points. I'm back to work so probably won't happen till next week :-(

About the server updates: is it just me or after those reviews they mess up with your gold cups. This is the second time after an update that I get Gold Cup results demoted to Silver with less points and there is no Gold result, I still have the fastest time

Haha, nice. im e-famous! hope break the record today, but the LN2 truck didnt show up yet , i expect 1250 +- on the core.

[Linuxfan]

If everything works out I'll grab some hardware points today or this weekend with some stuff coming in and be at 400 points or a little over.
Got LN2 thijs?

Were you able to reach your desired results?

That would be great! You have PM by the way!


We're doing well currently, approaching 11500 points!
