tbird just shutup, your posts are getting more and more rediculous. You have no idea how the r520 will turn out anyway...

lol, with the AGP card I was all set to trim down the head a bit (hacksaw the insulation around the evap)....no need with the PCI-e card! It fits, barely. I started with some clamps, but I kept getting misaligned when I set it, and not enough pressure. I ended up getting threaded rods (#4-40, 3"), drilling through the evap and mounting like any other gpu cooler...with neoprene and liquid electrical tape of course, grease in the slot. The evap itself fits right inside the shim perimeter if lined up right. The shim should be OK, even if the evap was bigger. My DD waterblock is flat-based, no offset core area, and covers the shim, but I still get good contact with that. These cores are flush with the shim, you just need to line up right when mounting, and I know it's not easy, but it can be done.Quote:

i have a somewhat related question pertaining to mounting the evap on there. IIRC, the prommy has a pretty big evap head, larger than the ATI GPU core... so how do you get contact with the core itself? Most efforts to get my kryo mounted have resulted in very poor contact because of the shim. did you just take the shim off?
@ T-Bird: The symptoms? As soon as the card goes under load it will halt with vertical bars on screen. This is different then my AGP card did when it hit OCP, it would just black screen until OCP was tweaked right. This happens now, regardless of clocks, as long as volts are over 1.75V. I've been so up and down the data sheet and my card that I am pretty certain it's the pwm breaking down, but 2 channels, 4 FETs and lots of caps per channel, it is going to be impossible to isolate the failing part I think. I tried to do this once before on a friend's 9800XT and never did find the failed part.
Done! ;) As usual, I'm awestruck with your awesome scores.:eek:Quote:

Kappa, how's everything dude? Hope that no new benchy from you's due to your catching the lazy bug from me...and NOT the other cause.:eek:
1st scores with 3700+. Sig updated. Got over 2.64 but it was not prime stable. Running 216x11.5 right now. I'll tweak a little when I have time. I might also need to redo the AS. I was in a hurry :)

That 2001 score is very poor, your only getting the performance of my winchester at 2GHz :( you really need to get your ram bandwith up, half multis further kill your bandwith. get some tccd dude and run at least 260x10 and youll gain as much as 2000 marks!
tbird is right in that you need to get the bus/ram up, but i think there's more to it. my old 30k claw score at 2.43 is almost 100fps ahead of you in dragon low, that just doesn't seem right.
I wasn't lazy... I just forgot wich VR was necessary :PQuote:

Thanks for all your concerns ;)
BTW mikead_99 i'm sorry to hear that you can't get more volts :(
Don't forget that you DO have a great score.
Could it be ATI Radeon X800XT PE vs 6800GT? ;) One thats overclocked a lot more. Hopefully I get off work early enough to play around with it this afternoon.Quote:

I don't think the half multiplier is killing me much. I tried 220x11 and the score went down a tiny bit.Quote:

Aaargh! Yup, the volts would've given me the gpu clocks for a top 5 score...as is I'll have to settle for number 6 '01. :) Oh well, it was a blast getting there. mikey, my final updates for a while:Quote:

I think I do have a slightly improved '05 score on the HD too, but the machine is torn down atm. I'll check and get that up in a day or so.
AWESOME Mikead_99! :eek:
NICE work!!!
Thanks buddy! I'll get some pics up here later for people that haven't seen a setup like that, need some rest now though. ;)
Yes, -would VERY like to see some pics of
a hi-end setup.
Have a few Cold ones on your accomplishment :cool:
i've got to hand it to you mike, those are some fantastic scores. not only are you #6 in the world but you're almost 10k ahead of everyone else here at sharky. it's going to be hard to even make it look close anymore :)
so what kind of temps were you getting with the DI?
wow Mike 42.2k this is most impressive and one heck of a score for eshbach or anyone else to try to even come close! Your not far from 4th place in the world either! I checked Mickymouse's score and for him being 100MHz and some fsb behind you, he sure looks awfully close in both cars and both lobbies to you and got you in drag low by 10fps and 15fps in nature.
Have you used codered tweaker and run the right test orders? lobby low, lobby high, car high, drag high, drag low, car low and nature works best for me, try that order. I can run other orders but whatever I do, if I dont run lobby low first, my score is always lower cause of the hit I take in lobby low not running it first. sorry about your gpu not liking higher volts, if you really want to get 4th place you could always sell yours and get another that may like volts, you will probably break even too cause yours overclocks well=good resell value.
Its just amazing when I think about it, our own sharky member is the 6th in the world, unlimited class! :eek: possible 4th with another x850xt! How did you get them cpu clocks higher? dry ice? cascade? I wish eshbach luck when he gets r520(or even two if amr is supported by then) hes gonna no doubt need a diego fx55 at least if not fx57 for 2001 and to a lesser extent, 2003. He however could easily get first place in lesser gpu classes such as 9800pro, 9800xt, x800pro, perhaps even x800xt with a diego :D plus said gpu would be much cheaper. I am top page of the orb for my gpus you see in my sig
As for the cpu im getting, its gonna have to be a Venice, just dont have $600 funds for a diego 4000+ and its not gonna matter that much without at least an x800pro anyway but then were talking $900 easy :eek: However I think I can have the world record for air cooled on all my other gpus with a nice $200 3200+ Venice at like 300x10 2.5-3-3-10 ram timing, might even try for 30k with my 9800pro if it clocks well enough and if I decide to keep it(will do if it clocks well) Yes I know 1mb s754 claw is the only affordable 1mb cache but its not gonna come close to a Venice due to farrrrrr higher Venice clocks.
I think Venice may even be better than fx53 if there is more than 200-300MHz difference. average fx53 does 2.65GHz so we would need 2.85 to 2.95 Venice to beat that fx53. No one know how far Venice or Diego will do but its very possible Venice may actually be as good or better when overclocked and also much cheaper. I still see fx51 cpus going for like $300 but they cant touch my $160 winchester cause I have so much higher clocks and fx51 uses very slow registered ram, meh!
