I'm interested

Raikiri · 14 Jan 2006 at 06:20

OCuk value, 490mhz core (497max) 1200mhz mem (1240max)
Stock volts and cooler, may do the BIOS mod at some point and i am waiting to see how the new zalman/arctic coolers perform.

monster_munch · 14 Jan 2006 at 16:12

How is it cooled ?

Raikiri · 14 Jan 2006 at 16:34

Like I said, stock cooler - I plan on getting either the new zalman or arctic depending on how they compare to eachother

nice one - that's about 50 marks less than my 7800gtx 256mb

I've a Leadtek 7800GT that was clocked at 470/1200 with the rev2 stock cooler which ran 3DM05 no probs, about 8.2k it got, but I noticed pointy triangular shapes on the screen during a game of CoD2.

Not sure if this is likely to be core or mem thats causing the problem? Hardly ever goes over 50°C.

This is my 3dmark05 score = 7713

On standard cooling, soon to be watercooled then i'll see what happens.
With those setting BF2 went a bit funky though.

BFG card. Clocks and scores in sig.

Mine seems to be a pretty poor clocker on the core

but pretty good on the memory!
http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=1701483

For some reason it says its at 518/1252 when its actually at 480/1252 !

Going to volt mod it when the new Zalman coolers come out as im on stock cooling still. For some strange reason 3dmark03 wont even install! :mad:

Anyway 3dmark05
8413

I had the same triangles on my Leadtek when clocked as well,not tried to find out if it was ram or core yet

Same here if the core goes above 430. Noticed this in BF2.

Almost certainly the core mate (see subroutines post also), I might get one of those new VF900's :cool:

or just reseat current cooler with AS5.

fireblade900 · 15 Jan 2006 at 11:56

BFG7800GT at 490/1220 with stock cooler.

sepulchre · 15 Jan 2006 at 12:24

Just ran 3DMark 05 on my rig in sig. gfx card @ 479/1110. Scored 7759. Dont know if this is good or bad though tbh

Xez · 15 Jan 2006 at 13:07

You should be getting a bit higher than that i would have thought! what drivers are you using?

loltim · 15 Jan 2006 at 13:35

Yeah should be 8k at that clock.

pastymuncher · 15 Jan 2006 at 14:07

2x BFG 7800gt's (rev 2) scores and clocks in sig.

Single card:-
03=15904
05=7715
Aquamark 3=70038

All single card scores done with my old 3400+ @2.3ghz. Will try with my new 3700+ later.
Have had both cards up to a max of 490/1.20 but will not budge past that.

I'm on 81.98 if thats right?

Xez · 15 Jan 2006 at 14:33

Im using the 83.10's my leadtek wont even pass coolbits at 472 on the core so i had to force it and it was fine(no artifacts) although it dies at 490+.
