New toy for Tuesday :)

*lol*

Sorry man... I thought you were complaining about how long it taken me to realize to swap out the KNXP :)

But the KNXP is a great board... But its just not a Extreme Overclockers board :(

Oh question...

I have noticed that when I bump the FSB by 5Mhz without touching the memory timing or divider.. That Sandra would show maybe a 20 point increase??? Sometimes 5Mhz extra on the FSB would drop the score????

Does your IC7-G behaves like that? I didnt test out the IC7 that extensively.. So I might swap over to the P4C800 DLX today or wait for my IS7 tomorrow or Friday :)

I didn't notice anything like that. Although I didn't extensively bench sandra each step of the way so I can't be sure. I did do several tests along the way though and never noticed anything odd like that.

Here is his specs :) I cut-n-pasted from his sig :)

[email protected] water cooled cpu/chipset cooled. 750 gph pump and 130gph pump 1.85.cpu/ram.3.0v
abit IS7.mem/modded kingston3500x2@490mhz.
two maxtor 60g set up raid striped.
one 30g storage.
ati 9500 pro modded./ti4400 modded/enermax modded [email protected]/[email protected]/[email protected]
_mod_it_overclock_it_post_it.......XTREME

Very nice and very modified :) WOW Almost DDR500!!!!! Sweet!

Yes that is impressive. So he's at 296 mhz FSB. But then how his ram at 490? If he's using 5:4 it would put his ram at 474mhz.

I wonder what he actually ran that bench at.

I'm looking forward to doing some apples to apples comparisons with you when you get your IS7 to find out what the deal is.

my gawd bldegle, if you oced that radeon, you could match colossus easy! Nice prometia too, maybe this is what I need for a good overclock. what voltage are you using for 2.9GHz? will I get more MHz with the same voltage on good cooling?

I also just ordered a prometeia. Let the games begin!:D

Yes he can... WOW a correct statement for you :D :D :D

However a AMD @ 2.9Ghz is very impressive and would beat my score if he pushes that card... He should get an extra 1500 from the card alone if he overclocks it...

bartons dont overclock as well and do not like past 1.8v, so I dont see why I shouldnt break 3GHz if I stand correct and on like 1.8v too

Now you are wrong... MAN!!! You were on the roll earlier...

Bartons do work with extreme voltages.. But you better be able to cool it better at higher voltages...

Most Bartons around 2.9Ghz are on or over 2.0v

told you already, i don't care nor do i want to clock my vid card.

2.9 gig requires 2.06vre.

.......................................duh. but your chipset will be your ultimate limitation, as stated mega times before.

Hey baldy...just out of curiousity, what kind of Super Pi numbers does that beast of an AMD machine put out?

800mhz fsb nice, lol im still at 533 and upgrading would cost too much
i.e. - new mobo + new P4

your choice, wonder why though but no matter maybe its fast enough already LOL also you dont care to set records in 3dmark. also radeon9700s arent good overclockers either :(

First.. The R9700Pro is a great overclockers... Get one before you talk down about it!

IT is obvious you never owned one...

Second, not everything is about 3DMarks... If person A has 20k and person B has 23K, it doesnt necessarly mean that person B would be faster while gaming...
