I'm at 3.6, add 2k and we have 5.6k, that's 1.4k more then gold cup holder who is having much higher memclocks. I doubt that much of a boost, at best 100~200points. I did a bit of research ;)

I gained loads of points by using DDR2 and tightening them sub timings... I hope MM still has that X6800 CPU... 3.3Ghz was no problem out of the box, board was limited at 300FSB, but with the multi at 11X or higher (requiring Vcore voltmod) there' sno biggie to push further

Owned one of these too, wass planning to modify it, but then it got sold :)

Whoa, I just gained 200 points from lowering the memory timings from 2,5-4-4-8 to 2-2-2-5. Because of the small mem-size (16MB), higher System memory bandwidth makes the GPU scale better? Wouldn't have thought that. DDR2 would indeed give a nice extra boost. 66 points short of gold.

AM3: 4193
GFX: 426
CPU: 10584

Would that be good for cooling 4 5870's ? :)

jmke 3rd November 2009 19:37

for €90 it's worth a try

geoffrey 3rd November 2009 19:37

Very probable not:

Unless you're thinking of using them idle :)

I'll ask PJ about the CPU, otherwise it will have to be the E8600 at 3Ghz...

Nah, you'll probable end up with a dead board, they suck in clocking and I'll probable start experimenting, which is no good thing.

Why not hook up to the 5V line with a VR in between?

becaus u need a voltage ragulator or something between them not a VR :D.

G u can hook up the psu u made for me back some time :D, that should work thought ?

Massman 5th November 2009 10:23

Why?

You use the VR to increase resistance between 5.5V line and memory voltage input so that you start at 3.5V and then decrease resistance to allow more V.

MSI lighting card is't that brilliant clocker, stuck at 775/1554 Shaders /1275 Rams with max volt given ( +200mV) Otherwise it will lock up randomly here. Som ebenches can be done higher but with these clocks it's all benches stable, plus all the game tests.

On air : first place 01 is possible, 3rd spot 03, 6th 05 & 06 and 3rd AM3...

MM wants to bench it ? I'm almost done with the tests ( afterburner has some issues it seems :p )

Massman 5th November 2009 13:23

Sure, I'd like to give the card a whirl under LN2. But first, I need the games comparison data from John to make a decent review :(

You use the VR to increase resistance between 5.5V line and memory voltage input so that you start at 3.5V and then decrease resistance to allow more V.

That would very probable burn the resistor pretty fast, or maybe the VGA/PSU, it's totally different.
Volt regulators are build to maintain their output voltage independent of the required output current. They will keep their output voltage but let through more current. A resistor in between will make current flow, but no voltage change. Lowering the resistance = more current, at some point you'll end up burning the resistor. Thing is that this point is actually quite close to zero Ohm, turning your pot will most likely cause you to short your volt lines, you know that's no good. Resistor will burn, if you turned to much, your PSU will burn.

Now, what I did was directly applying the 3,3V line to the load and thus bridging the VREG circuit. You do not do this with a VR because again, it's a matter of current and the high current will cause the VR to simply burn. It's is best that you completely disconnect the VREG circuit but I took my chances and nothing blew :) At 3.65V I saw no increase so that's that, had my fun, selling the setup with another TNT2 I had around.

E762 in the house.
Now I need a new PSU (1200watt) and an extra 5870 :)

same here, good old rocking OCZ 1000watt + corsair 1000watt :).

gamer maybe 3 psu's for benching ???

leeghoofd 5th November 2009 18:52

one Enermax 1KW too here at your disposal...

geoffrey 5th November 2009 18:52

What the hell, 2kW not sufficient for you high-end peepz???

Gamer 5th November 2009 19:22

Heb hier een 1KW OCZ voeding hoor, maar denk niet dat die 4 kaartjes aankan.
3 lukt zeker, ben het moederbord nu aan het testen
210 BCLK zonder veel aanpassingen.

skulstation 5th November 2009 19:25

heb hier anders nog Enermax Revolution 85+ 1250W.maar die kan ik niet lang missen.

leeghoofd 5th November 2009 19:32

We want 230 plus...
