over 100CFM blowing on the vid card, I doubt that I'll have to retire her just for that. :p ;)Quote:

It'll take more than 100CFM of air blowing on that card to get it up there pulling OCed Ti4600 scores...maybe intravenous adrenaline and super growth hormones??Quote:

You do get an A for effort though. Those are some pretty impressive 8500 scores ;)
Actually, I've just talked to www.1coolpc.com and instead of that being 100CFM, it's now 181CFM. ;)Quote:

He he...I doubt Macci will be there when you get there....he's moved on to bigger and better things than OCing an 8500 :p ;)Quote:

Ran a 12603 this morning but highest score I have posted on madonion is a 12598, check my sig.
15017 is my new mark. That is with a Visiontek card, not exactly the best card out there.
http://service.madonion.com/compare?2k1=4094769
I get about 1900 in 3dmark2001SE. System specs:
Athlon 1.4 (running at 1050 due to mobo restricions)
Chaintech 7AJA2E
Voodoo 5500
128mb pc-133 ram
Seagate Baraccuda 20.4gig 7200rpm
SBLive Platinum
few other bits and bobs...
My best score with a Voodoo5 5500 is 2627 http://service.madonion.com/compare?2k1=2033222
That's with my V5 at 177MHz on a 1.5GHz Athlon XP @ 143MHz bus.
I get 2596 in this compare link: http://service.madonion.com/compare?2k1=2026535
That's with my system at 1.4GHz without overclocking. I did some tests and the 1.15 Voodoo5 BIOS is the fastest.
Yeah, I'm sure I'll get more once I get a new (probably kt333) motherboard and can run the processor at its proper speed, with a 266 fsb and some DDR ram. It'll hopefully breath a little more life into my system. That Voodoo's a hungry hungry card, just gobbles up the processor.
Sorry, meant 133 fsb - Current mobo only does 100.
Excellent, good to know the Ti4600 is installed again. Nice score ;)Quote:

You will need to push that 8500 to or over my 8500 OC record of 335/335 to beat Macci's score. ;)Quote:

You guys should try the latest detonator drivers to improve scores..
R8500's long dead, mystif. It died right before I got to vmod it. :(Quote:

8189 in 3DMark2001 SE. 1024x768x32
Athlon 1.2 @ 1.35
512M Crucial CAS 2
GeForce 4 Ti4200 @ 280/525
ASUS A7V133
When did this happen? (I haven't been around here enough it seems). What were you going to beat Macci's score with?Quote:

64MB R8500, it died the night before I got my ramsinks and thermal adhesive in.Quote:

Sorry to hear, but it served you well ;) (I went through my share of 8500s, that's why I won't buy ATI again)Quote:

Yup, now I'm trying to decide if I want to ride out this Voodoo 3 3000 that I'm on right now until I get my R9700 or get a ti4600 and turn around and sell it for $200 once R9700 comes out.Quote:

Just a warning; If you get a Ti4600 (MSI would be the best choice) you may not want to go back to ATI after using it. You may just wait for the next Nvidia card... who knows, I am. Once you realize the Nvidia card won't die after loads of overclocking you just might not go back. Just a warning ;)Quote:

I'll take my chances. :DQuote:

I'm thinking I'll just wait. I'll have my cooling finished by the time I get my R9700. It'll have it's socket hsf waiting to be mounted on the gpu along with ramsinks and 100 extra CFM. :D
