Old school benching FTW
Have fun running SPi 32M!

he will have fun, i bet he can take nap while it's running

Yep looks like Turricane ran Spi32M in 12hrs so it'll be an overnight thing...
Running Wprime1024M and its going to be 4hrs or so, 1.5hrs left now. Testing efficiency with this CPU is a long and slow process.
Tried 3 different clean OS installs yesterday on this old laptop, getting it narrowed down.
I'm having fun with it and learning a bit about tweaks again.
Going to get 1st place in Wprime1024M and pifast if its the last thing I do!

hit me up on msn, I'm sure i have a tweak or 2 that will shave a few days off for you

Nice scores Yotomeczek! Now put that 980X on LN2!

Linuxfan is benching another very powerful rig....

[Linuxfan]

Thanks for the update Dan!
Yoto is at it again with the 480s...
I really pushed my N280 netbook hard, on air it was doing 1980mhz max yesterday so to get over 2ghz I put it in a freezer. Its got dried/defrosted last night and is running just fine now.
Working on the Celeron M 353 netbook again to squeeze a few more points back from it and get my CPU-Z award back(I've been bumped to 6th since I last benched it)....
Working on the hwbot achievments, have 74 awards and medals total now and 24x gold.... A few days ago I think I was around 60 total and 16 gold...

That's a nice idea, reminds me of the fact I still need to take down the 06 and Vantage records in the 9200M GS category when I'm at home again.

Good luck for collecting more silverware.

[Don_Dan]

mk-ultra is the third one on the team to break 400k in AM3!
Very nice work!

[Linuxfan]

Nice stuff MK with some DICE!
Yoto grabbed a 40k Vantage with dual GTX 480s and a UD9 motherboard today as well, 11th place global dual GPU with the 480s still on stock air! Congrats!

Is there any way to overclock a single socket G34 system? I tried K10stat, maybe I was doing it wrong, but I could only get it to lower the multiplier.

Sorry, no idea.

We lost ~180 points again, does anyone know who left and why?

Thought we were at 13,550 yesterday and now we're at 13,500...

[Leeghoofd]

maybe I reported too many of your scores Don_Dan :p

That's ont of the easiest things on our team, we only have 4 person that bench once in a while :p

[sRHunt3r]

I posted this up yesterday from my new crunching rig, I will run some others to help out if you would like. The GPU in it is crap though (ati5770) I do have an ATI 5870 in my main rig I can switch over if needed

BotSkill joined us today and brought 133 points, that's why you didn't see it.

Yeah, please stop doing that, it's annoying!

Maybe you should join a more active team!

Thanks for contributing! Please run Wprime 1024M as well, some 3D ( Vantage especially ) would be cool as well. Just make sure to turn off HT before running it, Vantage can't utilize all the threads.

[sRHunt3r]

Sounds good I'll run wprime 1024m and the toss my 5870 in her for some vantage

[Linuxfan]

Sounds great you should get some points with it, go for it!
Be sure to use W7 and the 10.3 drivers or newer for Vantage.

[sRHunt3r]

Well, I beat my wprime 32m score and moved from 5th to 3rd and took 7th in wprime 1024m. My vantage score sucked ...... I have a higher vantage score with my i7 920 @4.5

Depends on your GPU clocks its much more heavily GPU bound with both the i7 920 and dual CPUs.

Awesome, great to have you!

[Linuxfan]

R3E back been testing all night getting used to RC TweakIt and tweaking the board.... Had a lot of fun with it so far!
Got 110k 3dmark 03 with the 980x on water at 4.75ghz and my GTX 480 at 901/1166 on stock cooling thats about the best it'll do without better cooling.
My W7 OSes are not liking Vantage so I'll have to wait on it until I reinstall tomorrow....
Grabbed the long awaited Sandra top 5 global place with the 980x at 4.60ghz just over 200K.
Time for bed its 1AM here.

[Linuxfan]

Got LN2 today and a decent Vantage score with same cooling as yesterday but can't bench till I'm back from a trip this weekend....
See ya guys in a few days! Bench hard XS!

[Hondacity]

hey linuxfan

you got the dewar all good?

how much was 39L

thanks

*heatware?*

Dewar came yesterday and looks great. Vacuum must be working because its full now and all seems good.
Not sure if its 39L or not the people at airgas had trouble figuring out what size it actually was since they said "there's no such thing as a 39L dewar" and were trying to find its specs on websites...
Can't wait to bench with it! Great size I think but we'll see how long it lasts with 980x and GTX 480 potted.....

[=[PULSAR]=]

Dewar question, is a 40L w/pump for $300 a good price?
