New PCMark Vantage World Record - Thanks to All of You

[SteveRo]

Much thanks to all my friends on Xtremesystems.
Particularly those folks here in the storage forum.
I think Mike G had a much stronger processor overclock than what I was able to do (4.5)
I was able to make that up with a killer storage system based on information and knowledge mostly gained from all of you, my good friends here - in this forum.
This is your WR.
The Areca 1231ML performed very well - I have high hopes for the new 1880 series.

Congrats steveRo

[Hondacity]

12 x 9010s?

[Anvil]

Congratulations SteveRo

[zalbard]

This is amazing, congrats! Very well deserved!

[SteveRo]

PCIE at 105, higher didn't seem to score as well - the rest of the benches on the storage system - Areca 1231ML-4G with 6 Acard 9010 "boxes" set to R0 so 12xRaid-0 -

[Computurd]

excellent results steve-o
any word on when 1880 will be out?

Best estimate I have seen is still 1stQTR this CY.

[Tiltevros]

one big B-R-A-V-O SteveRo well done mate

[Levish]

Grats!

[KB24LA]

took more than half a year to beat that, congratz on your record

[SteveRo]

Much thanks everyone!
Hopefully it will not be another seven months befoe this one is broken again.
Who's next - Onehertz, CompT, Anvil, Audienceofone, Tilt?
Maybe even Nizzen again?

[Tiltevros]

here is something form me to u



im crossing my fingers and pray every day for futuremark to fix their bug for multicpu compatibility

I have the x980 preordered that I will run at 5ghz+ on my SS but I won't be able to beat you because a raid card with substantial cache is required to do that...

pcmark vantage doesnt perform with more than 4 cores 8 threads.... belive me... im using 8 cores 16 threads and am getting lower marks than a quad core

[Anvil]

Tilt,

Are you sure?
It might be limited to one socket.

How much of a difference does a good GPU make in these tests? My ruffus cascade should be done in a few weeks, and I know I can get 5.2GHz benching stable out of this 920. However I am rocking a 8800GTS 640, and don't really see me upgrading for a while.

Although I could throw the 8800GTS under a single stage and throw a whole lot of voltage at it. However even then I think it is a lil' outdated.

its limited to 4 cores 8 threads till now even with new patch...

if u go to my dedicate post and see the score notice my CPU....
its missing.... and this is with the new patch on!!!!

Very nice numbers - over 53k HDD points - nice

Based on what I have seen so far - pcmark vantage responds very well to cpu ocing and fast storage, not so much to memory speed (at least not i7) and some but not much to video subsystem.

new one right now

oh I know it doesnt use more than 4 cores, but the gulfy is a bit quicker (especially versus my qx9650) as it is.

As soon as intel finally releases the thing I will have:

i7 x980 @ 5ghz+ on my ruffus SS (-35C @ 300 watt load)
6gb of DDR3 2000+mhz
5870CF (I dont think CF works for vantage though so I am probably better off taking the better ocing single card)
4x x25-E on 9211 (ich10 may be faster)

If I had a 1231 then I'd have a good chance of taking it.

edit: lets take top 3 or top 5 for xs ?

[mbreslin]

Hi, first congratulations Steve! I'm new to xs but have a build coming in the next week or 2, grabbing the 9211 and 9260 and as soon as they are available 256g c300 8R0,
look forward to benching with you guys, I'll let some of you guinea pig the new erecas and if one stands out i'll grab it too
