Holy cow! 630mhz core speed, 725mhz mem speed! That's the true power of water cooling. There's no way mine can hit anywhere near that speed on stock cooling. The highest I've pushed mine was 580mhz/700mhz. Here u go ppl, that's the true power of modding. Without cooling mods like this example here, it's simply impossible to achieve speeds like that. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

I'm wondering though, that 18000 score in 3DM05, was it due to the Conroe at 3.7ghz or because of Quad SLi. Did u try benching just 1 card at the same exact speeds? Mine only scores 13000 with single card.

Perhaps it's due to the driver hasn't fully optimised for Quad SLI yet

didn't try single card cos straight away wack 2cards & watercool liao ..

the quad sli is still possible to push higher but just need more time to have the sweetest non-artifact benching. probably need to up gpu voltage or mem volt. i've also searched the internet for awhile but to no avail. sad.gif maybe u or anyone can provide some tips ?

for that kinda scores i guess its the cpu that's the driving point, not the card. cos single card, 3Dmark05 scores should be hovering around 13k mark .. whereas dual card should be like at least 50% more power.
i did a search on futuremark website & found that dual card with conroe clocked at 4.3-4.5ghz also scored around 22-23k .

so i guess its the gpu driver that is the limitation now sad.gif
seriously if nvidia were to unleash this dual card's potential, its gonna be explosive wink.gif

till then we'll just sit & wait.

as for the X6800 cpu, we've not got the sweetest oc benchable mark yet. still playing around. the memory is capable of DDR 1066mhz but we're actually running it at only DDR 800 & 2x 1gb.

this part also not yet fully explored. wait till after BBS 6 .. gonna rape this b**** like mad ... biggrin.gif

currently building another rig ..

Project TJ-09 !!! another Conroe + Crossfire 1950XTX machine ...

some preview pictures here, after that I shall start a new official thread for it when its all completed ..

Here the customer took down an Antec dont know wat case ... silver alu .. quite ugly outside .. oops. doh.gif
Inside messy .. and he has overheating problem with the Crossfire 1950XTX.

He got a new TJ-09 & we're gonna transfer the old hardware over .... sort of a revamp his rig + watercooling inside.

Re-rig !!

The real user is a very nice young man. Very well mannered, courteous & cheerful. I feel so tiny when i get to know further his hobbies, family, etc. hmmm... photography, luv in exotic cars, touring europe in porsche & owning them is enough. :rolleyes

This one has just been re-rigged recently. After the mobo break-down. We changed a new mobo. Took the darn distro 2mths for the replacement.

We took the opportunity to do some maintenance like changing the coolant, changing tubing, cleaning up dust and re-orientate the radiator. the previous rad orientation was a mistake & created a lot of bubbles. and also tidy up the cables further, added longer uv lights & sidepanel modded further with user's nick laser engraved on the acrylic panel.

we'll show u the temp screenshot last of the images below.
