lol nah i did not smash it
poor dfi board the thing just up and died,it was very good to me and i to it.rma is such a pita with dfi so i having it in the box next to a dead dfi p45 trs+.
thats why i dont have cpu on dice right now i have no back up board.was going to get a p6t for 250usd from a walk in store but i figuried it would be nice to have two classy's instead so i'm saving cash.

 

For some reason I only get 1k more than with my old 8800GTS.. was getting 15k before now around 16. Any ideas?

 

Yeah i got like 18k @ 3.6ghz with my Q6700 and HD4890 its about normal.

 

32k gone
weirdly quicker at 1010 core than 1020

cards on stock coolers and cpu on h2o

 

Nice glenboy!! What are you using to cool all this right now?

 

Yeah, maybe I'm just expecting too much! Oh well, its quite a bit faster in games anyway. Tempted to get another and go crossfire though, seeing how cheap they are now.

 

cheers bodar, cards are on the stock coolers and cpu on h20 (on its own loop on a thermchill pa 120.3 and pa 160.1 radiator) and still using my dtek fusion cpu block with a 1366 mount works great on the i7

 

190.62's... It was a good cool day today ah and a fan pulling it in

Awesome!! So do you notice temp stability the more rads you add? Thinking I'm gonna go crazy with the rads soon and just wanted to know what you thought... Also.. So weird..
I lowered my clock speeds to default gtx 285's and got a better score lol

 

yeh i'm not sure with clocks on gpu but i had same i got a better score at lower gpu whether its heat or just the gpu getting overwhelmed i'm not sure , with the rads a 120.3 is plently for the i7 alone and probably 2 rads if w'cooling the gpu's as well probably best on 2 loops but i had 2 2900xt's , north bridge and cpu dual core all on one loop on a 120.3 thermochill and that worked fine , i don't personally watercool the graphics cards now , its not really needed i find, but 2 big rads is enough for anything you'd chuck at them , good fans make a big difference to the cooling of the rad i have 6 on the 120.3 (3 either side) and my temps are great

 

hitting the bot good glen
you should just order yourself a cpu dice/ln2 pot and go in for the kill.

i put my cpu on dice for like an hour,i had some left over from my 275 runs.
wanted to try my 96gt + cpu on dice first time with two pots lol.

only had 2-3 kl so i set volts high and used software.
card was sucking more dice then the cpu the gpu pot swings bigtime if your not always filling it. i can do better but what the hey i needed some fast submissions.

 

^i think thats a single 9600GT WR.... lol!

 

nah not even close lol
i got more left thuo...

 

you've got some hardware at your disposal how many video cards you got mate , do you buy them thrash em then return for refund :wanker: saying its got all yellow dots on display its faulty, i have my mach gt and bought a mount for it to go on the i7 , just can't be bothered messing about with it atm and enjoying squeezing everything out of h20 and air cooled graphics, i always used waterblocks in past on graphics cards but it was a right faff if you changed video cards which we do quite often eh cowie and on air these cards really clock up well, i wonder how many times we have watched 3dmark screens and bsod , thousands or in your case cowie millions, keep pushing

 

i have alot of cards he he
i keep all the green ones,if someone needs a card i sell pretty cheap to them.
i know the combos limitations so i dont bsod too much
the cold dont hurt them they all run well.

the real party starts when you bring the sub zero i cant wait.

 

yeh i noticed when in 3d vantage the gpu clocks make quite a difference to the scores like in 03, so a bit of dice on and big clocks and wayyhayyy, keep pushin, you're still luvin it

 

Did this run just to see what I'd get after doing another Vantage pb

 

yeah, the single 9600GT WR over @ hwbot is 17500, but you are close.



anyways, i am going to be able to swap my E8500 C0 for a E8500 E0 for free friday so hopefully some good benchies!

 

ffs im so trying to bust 21K im at 20998!!! lol

 

uhhh:3eyes:
