Whats the vcore on the DFI? 1.85?
Hrm...I feel alot of A64 deaths coming... :D
yeah, you would think so...been at it all morning and ran into this issue:Quote:

@ 230 fsb, CPC had to be disabled regardless of voltages or anything else or the bench would crash everytime; this cost 1000 marks.:(
With it off, I ran it successfully at 242 x 10.5 and got back over 20K, but still didn't equal yesterday's best. (225 x 10.5, cpc on)
guess 1T is pretty important after all, not sure what to do about this.
turn up your memory voltageQuote:

OS-Wiz good luck but on that XP-120 theres a big dead air spot right itnhe cneter because of the motor on the 1200mm fan so just do what watercooling people do on the rads. and try and use a shroud or a ductmod
edit: btw nice geforce 8600 in your sig...;)
haha, he's got the mid-grade geforce 8. it's almost as fast as the high-end geforce 7, but it only has a 512bit memory interface, so when you turn AA up to 24x you won't get the same performance. The good news is you can run 4 of them in SLI^2 config and each one renders a 640x480 image for 2560x1920 res :)Quote:

haha no, i didn't mention how my new, pre-volt modded and LN2 cooled Ti4200 clocked 1200/3000 is *almost* as fast as this card at stock, so it's not worth upgrading.
i'm selling my 9800 for a ATI rage 128 since ts almost as fast and i dont need AA and i can't see past 3 fps anywayways. With that and since my cpu is already at 2.7 then i'll get 6 ghz on phase change and i'll get 56,431.9532 3dmarks in 01 and i wont bench 03 cause it wont fully utilize my cpu's power. :p
anyways.. esbach hows the phase change deal goin?
i can't order until sept. 10th (moving!) so i'm just looking around and weighing my options until then. I can do the PC ICE $400 deal at any time, but if i find a used Vapo or prommie for a reasonable price, i might go for that too. Should be fun no matter what happens :)Quote:

So far I'm happy with that monster XP-120 w/120mm fan (btw, its much lighter than a SP-94, but I don't like the way you have to mount it. I'll do a review of it later and see if I can get it posted at the 3DMark Team site.). So far, with just a tad of OCing, I can't get load temp above 50-52c with case temp 31-33c. And the Silverstone 120mm fan, even at max rpm of 3k, isn't near as loud as my old 90mm Tornado.
Anyway, trying to learn how to OC w/new mobo, CPU, and vidcard, and its driving me nuts :D
Woot, replacement card in, watercooling installed, maybe some benching action later! (Maybe)
CPU and GPU both Idle at 32C (Ambient is 30 :\)
hey esbach i tihnk this would really help you out on your phase change hunt
