my x850xt pe should be in sometime next week, now just have to decide on either 3500 or 3200 winnie, now if i can unlazy myself and find a day or 2 of time to do some hardcore benching i think me and vengance are gonna have a nice race :D
yeah just forgot that veng just got a gpu pelt, me thinks im screwed in 03,05 unless my pe clocks extremly well on water
ah, ok.Quote:

well i've got a new X800XT-PE and a phase change cooler (Kryotech G2) for it on the way.
might have to do some non-cascade runs for '03/'05 to keep my spot. should be interesting.
*shakes fist* hows the xt clocking on water?Quote:

don't have it yet, i'll let you know when i do.Quote:

the XT i sold last week was terrible and only did 620mhz on water with 1.65v
620 is terriable? thought it was average for water, but didnt the ram do like 620 and thats without the change ram timing tweak to gain like 50MHz higher ram clocks? for 2001 its gonna come down whoever has the best cpu clocks, tweaks and win2k. for 2003 and 2005 its up to the gpu. I will be benching in the cruiserweight round, that being softmodded 9500np and possibily 9800p oneday if I find a godly clocker for cheap
Looks like this place is gonna get lively again soon. :)
lol, and a kryotech thrown in to boot! That's probably close to an ideal gpu cooler, but man is that old school.

who cares about 01 anymore really.... for that point exactly. Your card is a good 5 years older than mine and i only got you by 2k... in other more realistic accurate benchmarks like 03 and 05 its more evenly spread.
and man, you better be breaking 40k soon. someone from sharkies needs to get it!.Quote:

Links?
lol, I plan to be part of the liveliness. :DQuote:

I dont think the x850xt is any faster than the x800xt in 2001 in part that it has relaxed ram timing over x800xt in order to clock higher, do that with your x800xt and youll have x850xt clocks. also the cpus a huge bottleneck. Not to say a better clocking x850xt can pull ahead in nature at 20 marks per fps. You may need the 90nm san diago fx55 to break 40k, hold tight for a week or two :D I am not even close to 30k myself, maybe with a 3GHz Venice I can get that? who knows, depends how well more cpu power scales with my gpu(s)
tbird, why dont you just get a better vid card?
Itll easily add tons of points and will get you near 30k, also will allow you to bench in 03 and 05, and make games more playable at higher resolutions.
i keep offering him cheap X800XT's but he seems pretty set on staying in the R300 series.Quote:

i'd really love to see what he could do with a good processor, good videocard and good cooling.Quote:

@ TB:
Pffffff to needing an SD for 40k, not that I don't want one. I just did a test run at 3GHz and pulled a 37k...that's with no mods to the board yet and not so good cooling on it and not completely maxed with the cooling it's on. (straight water) That's about where my pelt'ed, mod'ed X800 got me. This is my hosed weekend, guests in town and lots going on but I think if I can find time to get resistors on this card I may break 40k with just w/c (phase cpu :) ). Who knows where I'll end up once the card gets cold. ;)
edit to add: I'm not so sure about the x850's having looser mem. I suggested as much in that x850 thread at XS, because a downclocked X850 (520/540) was a few hundred behind my stock X800, but I think those few hundred were drivers. 4.12's boosted me a bit over 5.1's. I'd have to downclock and bench again to see if it totally made the difference up, but it would be close.
