Stole the stock cooler from my 7950GT and tweaked and benched an Evga 7800GT and 7800GTX today.

Every little bit helps!
Have a good July 4th weekend guys!

**Linuxfan** · 07-06-2010, 01:04 PM

Tested 3870, 3870X2, and 3870+3870X2 Tri-Fire today.
Didn't get to 01 with each card or AM3 with 3870 so will have to do that another day.
Also planning on testing 2x7800GTXs soon if I didn't kill the 2nd card.

There are now 463.1 points between us and the Russian Overs Team!

**Don_Dan** · 07-06-2010, 01:27 PM

Awesome, less than 500 points to go!

Did you guys notice you can submit your best RAM clocks now? That's great!

I think Frederik can read my mind.... a scaring thought.

Anyway, when was this added? Today? Or am I getting old?

Edit: Secured DDR2 WR for us and 2nd global with a lousy 702MHz submission. So I'll have to go after high MHz on my memory after all....

**=[PULSAR]=** · 07-06-2010, 01:42 PM

Should be getting my Xeons for my SR2 either tomorrow or Thursday then no sleep for 24 hours

The Ram Clocks section looks a bit premature, no specified DDR, DDR2, and DDR3 yet. Looks like people are just posting whatever with SS that don't show anything.

**Don_Dan** · 07-06-2010, 02:21 PM

That will be great! Good luck, do you still have those GTX 295s?

Yes, it's a bit premature indeed. MaxxMem still doesn't have the choice for DDR, DDR2 and DDR3 as well, but RB is informed about this, but since both benchmarks are not awarded points it's low on the priority list I guess.
Up to now only three results have been posted!

That's the normal pic for any CPU-Z validation, you'll have to click on the actual link to see the RAM clock. But I agree, maybe they could find a more practical solution.

Interesting. Will have to work on later.
Are you supposed to post the effective speed or CPU-Z shown speed? For example DDR3 post 2000mhz or 1000mhz as CPU-Z shows? I see you posted what CPU-Z shows and the other guy didn't.

We need rules.

Yep the GPU rundown:

9800GX2
2x GTX295
GTX480

EDIT: Testing the max 3D clocks for 295's tonight so less guess work come Thursday. Looking good so far...

Got 700 core with extra voltage yet on them? Seems to be easy enough with most 295s......
Are they on water?

Okay I'm testing with Vantage and so far 715/1265 @ 1188mV on stock air 100%. Scores are irrelevant due to bad cpu and crowded OS. Able to tune voltage up to 1350mV. Looks like if it came to a balls to wall rush for first I'll risk the juice.

Yeah it'll hit thermal limits before you take advantage of 1350mV on stock air...

Sounds good.

**=[PULSAR]=** · 07-06-2010, 06:36 PM

Yeah already hitting 80C with an ambient of 22C. I'm kind of wondering if vantage will fully use 12 physical cores?

It helps a lot but I don't know if it scales to perfectly 2x a 6 core with 6 threads..... Look at the CPU scores of the results on the bot compared to a single 980x.

Well just had a look, running dual hex cores is about 50-55% better cpu score in vantage. How are the gpu and cpu scores combined to get the performance score?

Just leave physics enabled on an Nvidia GPU and don't disable PPU in vantage and the 2nd CPU test will use the graphics cards. Not allowed in Hwbot though.

**=[PULSAR]=** · 07-06-2010, 09:15 PM

What exactly is PPU since it doesn't change the test to performance setting. Since I have two 295 dual PCB thinking about finding the better slave PCB to attach to the better Master.

GPU 1 710/1550/1250
GPU 2 720/1552/1240

GPU 2...testing

Physics Processessing Units? So if you disable it its essentially the same thing as disabling physics in the nvidia control panel but only for Vanatage.

I think it's real MHz, so what CPU-Z is showing. I reported saeedOc's entry and it's real MHz now.

Edit: Your entry just popped up. Congrats!

Yep mine got reported and fixed but didn't get re-ranked so I reposted in with the real Mhz. Should be good now.

Just a quick run last night to see if I could beat saeedOc's run.

Test Bench is all setup hope I have some fun

Big stuff! Looks like a nice setup to work on! Good luck!

**=[PULSAR]=** · 07-07-2010, 10:02 PM

What are some other good gpus to bench for lots of hw points? I'm thinking 8800 series looks like a bunch of winners.

These cards are your best bet for points, you can get a bunch with each even on air!

8800GTX, 8800GTS 512, 8800GTS 320MB, 8800GTS 640MB, 8800GT.

A bunch of the other older cards are worth a bit... 4850, 4870 ect so you can just look on the bot and see how popular each card is.....

**jcool** · 07-14-2010, 04:46 AM

Anyone seen the HWbot Memory Clock contest?
I made an entry for FBDimm that should win a few points, considering it beats my last record (and to my knowledge, LGA771 FSB WR anyway) by almost 30Mhz

**Don_Dan** · 07-15-2010, 09:13 AM

Nice score!

Skinnee posted a good score today as well, he is waving XS' flag in the Lords of Overclocking challenge @ FM!
