I'll gladly update your score dude, but I need full specs from you. Just scroll up to Smythe's post of his specs, I'll update as soon as I see it. ;) Not trying to be particular here, just need all the necessary info for a clean update.;) :) I notice that you have you FSB at 166, why not lower your multi to 10.5 and your FSB to 200, 10.5x200=2100mhz. At this speed your score should improve, looking at your specs, you shouldn't have a problem running at 200mhz FSB.

I believe my ram can do it but I'm concern about AGP/PCI bus speed. :eek: I know SATA HDD don't like PCI at 72/73 range......least, that's what I'd heard.:D

ah, yes, the via curse... it's worth a try, i don't know anyone who hasn't been able to get at least 215 out of the chipset though, so you can at least try for 220-225...

I've got my cpu at 210 and VC at 510/985 I think. Managed a score of 6464 for 03 :

I'll push for higher in 01 thru FSB, we'll see what happens.....:D

SWEET! Great score, A64 power! What are your voltages?

edit: your link didn't work, here's the right compare link for your score: http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=7562399

also, your lobby high scores are way off. you should be several FPS faster, as even I'm beating you and I'm over 100mhz slower on the CPU.

vcore 1.7V vdimm 2.9V no mods on mb
im using 5/4 so my mem is only at 205

Got a little higher score now with DrX 8.1. This will be my last bench until I get my watercooling setup.

ah, the ram divider explains your lobby score. go for a higher FSB to get the CPU and RAM speeds up there. you could try something like 325x8 3:2, or 300x8.5 5:4, if your RAM can do that. You just need to find your sweet spot and then you're looking at 26.5k+

whoa, dont forget he hasnt pci lock. 255fsb is 42.5MHz pci which is really pushing it already. Best to upgrade to a socket 939 mobo, 3700+ and dual channel bh5 ram at 250fsb 1:1 then he probably could pull 30k :D

tbird, you should not speak of things that you do not know... i have exactly the same motherboard he does and i can run up to 333FSB with no problems at all.

I did hear theres a special hdd controller card that can take 66MHz pci speeds. 333/6 is 55.5 so yea it could work. but other than that its a no go. may be easier to run 5:4 at below 300fsb and lower the multi of cpu

no, you don't need a special hard drive controller to do it on the AN50R, i'm using regular IDE hard drives on the onboard controller and i have a sound card in. everything works perfectly at 333FSB and clockgen reports the PCI frequency as 33.68mhz.

odd. you must have pci lock after all :D

i've been thinking the same thing. apparently some other people at xs thought so too when they were getting 300+FSB on K8Ns, AN50Rs, and other good nForce3 boards, but all tests say it isn't locked. beats me, but i don't really care as long as it works.

Oz and Zy,
You're updated!;) Nice scores!:cool: Oz, it's about time that AMD rulez the team - indisputably.:D

Kalcium_King, I need you to post your spec and link to your score in the format given by Oz_soth and Zy. As soon as I see your post, I'll insert you into the team database.;) :)
