1280x1024 @ low: 30FPS :)

this OC or stock?:)

Massman 2nd May 2009 14:22

OC of course: 3.8G quadcore + 1.1G gpu

so other games like Left 4 Dead, Call of Duty 4/5 will run pretty good at 1280x1024 :)

Lol, I managed to hit n°1 spot in all rankings besides Vantage today after noticing two of my four records were alread broken yesterday, but not even 3h after I posted my new results, the 05 benchmark got beaten again.

Back to the bench table!

Just broke the 05 record again, checked hwbot and now my 01 is beaten.

AARRGHH, so much animo for this particular hw class :D

or people with lots of backup scores:)
Aquamark and 3DMark03 are yours for a while I think!

Yesterday, I had a few benchmarks scoring incredibly low for no apparent reason. When I checked the CPU-Z memory details, however, I saw that the memory was clocked at ~480MHz CL5, instead of the 640MHz I set in the bios. Apparently, it was not possible to run with the 1067 divider.

Today, I spent a few hours figuring out what was exactly causing this bizare issue. I went over the different timings, HT Link frequency settings, different combinations and finally ... I figured it out.

To get the 1067 divider working properly at high memory MHz overclocks, enable 2T mode. Even if you're certain the memory could run 1T, it seems to be a technical issue more than a memory bottlenecked issue. If you disable the 2T mode, the bios automaticly resets the memory to the 800MHz divider, even if you've manually put 1067MHz.

By the way, in the proces of figuring out this issue, I also figured out a golden setting for benchmarking :).

This new hardware tweak is great!

Just tried the setup for the last time and managed to do 76k, 28.4k, 8.9k, 7k. Now running 06 and Vantage for a last time :D.
