* Seeing as you can force AA off through driver with no verification, 4xAA is dropped;
* Seeing as CPU has no speed impact, C2D limit is set to 3ghz, A64 to 3Ghz, P4 to 4Ghz (C2D owners, for fun, run bench at stock CPU vs OC CPU speed to see if there is a difference:) --my finding says no, but it may be a fluke?)

official entrees need to be posted in this thread with
Futuremark Compare + GPU clocks

currently Gamer is in the lead with 178 something air cooled 3D01

and he's in the lead! :)

ranking updated; Gamer you forgot to mention vga clocks.

ya, I'll update the first post once every 2 weeks :p

oh, Gamer, you need to include GPU speeds :)

^^^

it took him almost 24h mind you:)

When are the first results going to be posted so I have a target to aim at?

2400 C2D = 2700 C2D here

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9218481 @ 698/945

To give other benchers a target to aim at: 66.5 690/915

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=5413856

Btw, 190fps in 3dm01 is broken ;)

Good work both Gamer and Cherouke ... I'll have to upload new scores, tonight :)

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9219824

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=5417492

190 Broken Gamer, your turn now ;)

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9219937

Sweet, finally something to aim at |D

What clocks by the way?

What details?

Name: My Benchmark
Description: Untitled

By the way, those are sick memory overclocks. I don't think my 702 mhz gpu can compensate 80 mhz memory overclock :(. Tomorrow I'll give it another shot.

I'm out, memory has given up :(

Well, I would only destruct my card even more. I'm still doubting whether I pick one of the two cards that are still left or just backout the competition.

Man, I had the 165 drivers ready to instal before the card died :(

Not to long if it depends on me :p


http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9219050

btw, 1GHz anyone ?
nah, not yet.
No voltmods, still stock cooling.

Maybe it's better to keep this thread clean, only post scores here.
Congratulations and stuff can be posted in the workblog.

Let's raise the standard.

Try to beat this score without voltmods and fancy cooling :
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9219056
And John, clocks are on the futuremark link :p

Massman, you make me laugh :
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9219247
192fps reached :p

Ehm, your turn ?:battle:

Details, details Young Ones :)
updated, please don't make me fire up the benching machine again tonight, my wife already hates the noise that the cpu coolerfan makes :(

684/1020mhz
See details ?

This card has a great future, the recycle bin :p

On a side note, don't you think my remarks better with age ?

Good luck, more where this came from :p


Maybe I'm bold, but I'm not stupid :

Don't think so, Blind....
Vmod will help me too remember :p

To bad, Jupiler has no cooling power |D

Put me on that first spot JMke, or I will do it myself :p

196,6 FPS Nature 2001.

Pic will be uploaded later.

taking it back again Blind :)
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9220694

Yeah, don't make me MAD Blind, you will always loose.
Good thing I stopped benching a year ago :p

Closing 3Dmark a few times did the trick here, previous highest I got was 215fps or so.

Can't get any higher with the card locking up.

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9219101

What VGA clocks oldie boldie? :)

That wasn't there yesterday evening |D:naughty:

Too bad :(

Was good looking card :no:

Wow great card u got there , but when witte gets the vmods figured out its a new game again :D ( and im giving witte 50$ for not telling the vmods :naughty: )

One dead card comming up :D

Sorry to hear that , that card was one of the better ones.

u will have to give me 50€ to not to tell , il be testing the mods .
yes gamer has great card but he will die ones vmods are here !

the problem with vmods gamer is i dont know when to stop giving more volts :p , cola has more cooling power hehe

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9220437
gamer ure move , lol u will have a hard time now !
edit: and here 03
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=5419135
clocks in the compare link

In a final atempt to revive your card maybe you can try to remove the dead memory chip

.... NOT |D

have consilidated the thread a bit, if I ever want a chance to update the ranking; please from now on use this format to post your score:

* xxx FPS - GPU/MEM - URL

Thank you! Just keep replying in this thread, I'll merge posts every once in a while;)

236.3fps--884/1025 (1.9V-2.35V)-- http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9220788

(backup 1/8)

this ok Jmke?

FSAA Disabled Disabled, was allowed right?

Yup is good, AA is now off in the rules, benchmark still GPU dependent :)

Last score I had with the dead card: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=5420532 74.3 @ 697/909

Let the big boy's play :p

Phase change cooled.

Ranking updated!

227.1 - 860/1080
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9231135

air cooled? :)

of course :D

230.2 - 868/1093: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9232923

voltmodded?

Eu, yes, read massman's thread ;)

already saw the voltages mentioned in FM link

nobody benching 03 :)

force mipmap tweak is not usable in 3D Mark 2003, though it's good for another 3FPS if it could be used.

I scored 234,8 FPS at the same frequency's, nice tweaking Steven!
1,77V / 2,3V

1st spot aircooling 3D Mark 2001:
237,8 - 890/1050 - http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9248714

Nice result, must bench more, more I tell you........

Time for Steven pokerface to show us what he really has done with his sample. In meantime, I'm close to 240FPS, very close :D

EDIT: took first spot in 3D Mark 2003
89,3 FPS - 900/1050 - http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k3=5496710

Your results are kinda remarkable since your temps are way higher at lower clocks compared to mine, yet you managed to make a run at those clocks with such temps and stay stable....Blind couldn't do it at 890 without getting frame drops.
Nice one i would say :)
I sold my cards (2 pieces) therefor no backups to show, although i have some runs at a other disk at 925/1135mhz...2.1V/2.45V :D

Last time I checked I had around 60°C on load, that's with + 1,8V on the GPU and near 900MHz clock. Check my thread, Cranox give me a tip to get better temps :)

925MHz, insane, is that still aircooled?

That's aircooled yes, at 925 i'm at only 49° stressed, 880 45°c, yet at those speeds it shows slowdowns frame drops, that's why your results is pretty neat :) I had to rerun it rerun and keep going untill i had 1 stable run...wich resulted in 251fps...

Anyways keep pushing although i don't think anyone wil give some head to you :p
I sold my cards long time ago so technicaly i was already a month out of the compo :)

Btw teh card coulkd take 2.13V before it would give me blankscreen...2.1V was benchable :D

Jmke is frustrated, or Pardons is :)

241,3 - 905/1055 - http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9248747

That's it for now, for higher scores I need a better heatsink.

I point out a wrong translation... are you frustrated gamer? |D

Nice corespeed geoffrey , dont think that anybody got much higher on air ( there go's my plan for the nr1 spot ... )
Im gonna test the copperblock for fun then ( i can not gain 60 mhz on core with that blok :( )

This is my score 231,6 fps http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=9224885
