Forbidden Tweaks:

* mipmap tweaking
* rendered image differs too much from the original due to other software tweaking

So LoD-tweaking is forbidden?

Lod is allowed, mipmap tweak is forbidden

jmke · 22nd May 2009, 13:30

LOD is a valid tweak, it can be done through drivers control panel; or rivatuner, so it's accepted.

Mipmap changes the way image maps are rendered and drastically changes the outcome, visually and score wise;

When did you change lod the last time ? Changes image also very drastically

jmke · 23rd May 2009, 17:40

when did you disable mipmaps the last time?

world of difference

Let's get it started

SuperPi 1M: 10.219
E8600 @ 4550MHz
http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=856170

3DMark01: 76803
GTX 285 @ Stock: 648-1242-1476
E8600 @ 4400MHz
http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=856169

Just to set some starting points

I had my FSB at 500MHz (multi 9, so 4500MHz CPU), so that's not the problem: it seems the CPU can't get much further. Now running at 1.44375V. What's a reasonable maximum voltage for air-cooling?

I'm having quite some troubles with 3DMark, especially the high-test (CH, DH, LH). I'm getting hiccups and artifacts, even when running on stock speed

Massman · 23rd May 2009, 18:32

Lol, forgot all about this contest. Don't have a 1M score just yet and I'll probably not submit one since I have little time available.

Benelux finals are in June, so no time then either.

Power if you want ot have the phase come over (Erpe mere) and use my voltmodded 285 mate, 745GPU /1700 shaders/1450 rams on air (no hicups there

)

Thanks, but I've got a vapochill standing here. I start on air, and will take the vapo for some better results if the competition asks for it

Just ran 700 - 1594 - 1350 (unmodded), now taking out the card and conductive ink
