Bleh i sucked it up preety hard tbh. the clocks i arrived at on ln2 on card i was doing on air, eventually killed card just could not get the 1250/1200 runs in i knew were possible. Ended up smoking PWM attempting to do so.

Bad luck man.

Started out with the new P45 board today testing a lapped Q9450.
Still figuring out how it plays with the DDR3 ram and the small settings but I think I'm starting to remember how to clock this old setup again.
Tested it on a good pifast OS. SS was on fire with the hot days here in Alabama running in the -30s after an hour or so...
Will resume testing tomorrow on another OS trying for higher clocks in Superpi 1M and 32M and Wprime 32M and 1024M.

I found found some old runs from july I saved to a usb key and forgot about them.
tonight I was going through them and cant believe what I found. its been sitting there the whole time. I remember just scewing around with the mem slacked so I could see what the 655k max cpuz was.
2x 6ghz wprime runs. And they couldve been a lot better. look at my mem. I never submitted during a 655k tpower i55 session.
better late than never.

Memory doesn't affect Wprime scores so much.... Strong scores especially 1024M! Glad you found em!

Quick question guys, I'm going to install XP, is it worth to strip the intallation disk, or just disabling services later would do?

Also what else beside 3dmark2001 and SuperPi will get me better results than W7?

TIA

EDIT - Daniel already PM'd answer - thanks!

If anyone of you has been using my sig template, I wasn't able to repair it after the image got lost, so I made a new one, feel free to use it!


Guys, Hardwareluxx is getting really really close.

Guys, Hardwareluxx is getting really really close.

Been noticing. I'm not worried about them unless they pass 17k and 10th place then I'll have to get some more chips.
We're shooting for 10th, just be patient.

[Linuxfan]

What happened to JMax-Hardware? They are at 16622.70 now... Keep pushing it out guys! 10th is closer its been in a long time!

Luk997 posted some great scores today pushing his three GTX 480s in single, dual, and triple SLI mode to the max! Very strong 980x clocks on water and GTX 480 overclocks!
Great work!

[Don_Dan]

Very nice scores luke997!
Benching is so much more fun than modding, right?

PS: Thanks for the update Daniel!

Haha yeah, at least till I burn this CPU

I'm a little bit dissapointed with my Vantage x3 score - although an improvement, I was hoping to brake 50K but my 3rd card disappeared from the system for 2 reboots and when back I couldn't get her more than 875Mhz... and that's with max volts which forced me to lower CPU OC a bit too

But hey, I can't complain too much considering it's water :-)

[Don_Dan]

Yeah, better be careful, it's a great clock for water cooling, don't challenge your luck.
Or get some LN2! ^^

Hardwareluxx had a team session this weekend, they passed JMax....

[Don_Dan]

Our team member SteveRo has broken the PCMark 05 WR!
You can congratulate him here!



Big props to Marco André as well for taking two golden cups in the X6 1075T category.

[Linuxfan]

Great work SteveRo and Marco Andre!

Guys with gt220's I need some help here. I cant do this all by myself.

If I just would have known about it earlier and would have a chance to grab that GPU.
Nice Uniengine score!

In the most recent stage of the ASUS 1156 Overclocking Championship three of our members managed to enter Top Ten!
Congrats to FUGGER, chew* and ZenEffect and good luck for the next stage!

Well I just signed up... maybe HWBOT is a bit out of my league, not sure. I figured SuperPi was a simple enough benchmark, but I find myself a little baffled. Am I supposed to write down the checksum? I can't copy it because there's another window in my way, so I'm not sure what to do. I'm just trying to find out my ranking with a Phenom II X4 955 at stock.

[Don_Dan]

Thanks for joining us!

Check out some other verification screens, for example this one done by me!
CPU-Z CPU and memory is a must, as well as the SuperPI windows with time and checksum visible, motherboard info is only optional.

You can read up on the rules for every benchmark here!

[ScottALot]

Is there like a list of programs that I should download? I'm thinking benchmarks, specs, heat/load monitors, etc... that are commonly used for benching.
