You are mental, is the AC keeping up or are you out the back door with your rig sitting in the frost?

Are your vrms getting close to the edge too or is there room for more?

I thought it would have gave up before then.

What voltage are you on now?

Are you going for more?


As you can see from the above matt, I'm dribbling all over the place.:D

Lol Well the vrm is holding me back. Once i get up past 1300 i get artifacts once temps get to 65c+ on the vrm. I think my max stable clock is probably around 1300. The bench is not long enough to heat up the vrms that much, think the highest ive seen is 75c. I would never run these clocks 24/7 though, as soon as the bench is complete its back to 24/7 1125/1563 or if i need some extra grunt 1172/1563. I said this last time but i don't think theres much more i can get out of it.
 
Not getting into the top 25 but il still post my run - http://www.3dmark.com/fs/97526

Cpu at stock - shows up at 3912 Mhz

Gpu - Stock voltages and 1200 core clock and 1425 memory clock (always has issues with low memory clocks lol)

Air cooling used (as I dont trust myself with water lol)

Amazing result matt, never knew the oc could get that far on air, you are a complete kamikaze nutter btw though.:p



Wonder how far Neil can push his in reply???

I'll see what the competition does and then decide if i should add another 0.1ghz onto the cpu and another 5mhz onto the core. :D

I still haven't give up the idea of tweaking the vrm cooling on my accelero. Just waiting on the new G1 from arctic then ill probably buy those peter heatsinks to use. Either that or some other heatsinks that i don't know about yet that hopefully someone will see this and post and suggest to me. YES I MEAN YOU JOE PUBLIC READING THIS POST!
 
2 nd attempt -http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/138239

Settings same as before except cpu running at 4.6 Ghz @ 1.375v

Gpu - Stock voltages and 1200 core clock and 1425 memory clock (always has issues with low memory clocks lol)

Air cooling used (as I dont trust myself with water lol)

On a side note max cpu temp was 70 degrees, that to high for such a quick benchmark to be good for a 24/7 O/C?

Futuremark are blaming NV and AMD as well - but im not sure ?!

Its nice to see AMD and nvidia are on the same side for once - peace in our times.

Perhaps if Futuremark had worked a bit more closely with AMD and NV they would have the drivers available at launch.

I thought the idea of a benchmark was to test existing hardware, not to break it first then test.

I can only blame Futuremark for this.
