Just sumthin interesting for all u fellow 8 series owners to try out. Try to run all those progs that I ran while doing 3DM06. Let's see what every1 else can get. Try n use ur normal daily use settings ya, dont go n cheat by doing extreme OC on the rig just for suicide run. I just gave it a go on my daily use setting and got these results.







Look at the load on the rig while doing all that.









Come come, It's a boring weekend so let's all try this out n c what the results are.

it's a Logitech G15.

Boring weekend but machine doing folding la.....

Anyway, what priority do you set for the prime95, default priority 1? Wonder whether it will be the same as running orthos.....

680/1000 dads is 'sumtin'

my card still crashing if i change the mem clock to 980mhz...

bout the core clock..still not try pushing to the max yet..is there the crashes thingy related to the heat ??
or maybe it is the limit of the card or the driver it self??

madman..u using 158.22 to reach that speed huh??rite now im using 162.18..might try reverting back the driver to see any differences.

yeah...was using 158.22.

now im thinking of reverting back to 158.22 oso... but then the latest driver supposed to be better for lost planet..so ill stick to that for awhile more la

@kmarc
dun have ati tool to test out artifacts etc etc... so i just use 3dmark05 hence the reason i mentioned "3dmark05 stable" and not just "stable". besides..i only OC when im doing benchmarks... other than that, the GCs remains @ stock as even @ stock they can take alot of the current games.

IC. Le, your SLI could probably take any games thrown at it.....

eh eh...nono...i meant BEFORE SLI... actually any GC i use (even the AGP days)...OC only for benchmarks and normal usage @ stock as i didnt see a need to OC the GC for my gaming needs.

actually now SLI oso the GCs are @ stock

is it ur first GTS that can do 680/1000??how bout the later GTS..very ocable huh??

so lucky la xD...maybe b4,u using a high end card so no need to OC la

anyway,my 6600GT 24/7 OC..mid range gc..so need to pushing for the juicing...

only tested with the first GTS @ 680/2000... the second GTS didnt bother to test....just wanted to make sure its working only

B4 this where got high end card??? i was using an FX5200 -> 9550 -> 6800 Vanilla -> 8800

the 8800 would be my first high end card man...ever

clap for double high end card

anyway,how long u tested wif 3Dmark using dad speed??last time i set for 600/1900 playing games like 3-4hours..no prob..not a high setting ler

but suddenly exit to window and then restarted.even at stock speed..dunno if u do encounter this symptom o not...i tot,mayB coz of the heat...the rig suddenly restart..

I set Prime95 to:- Torture Test-Custom-Leave all settings default except set Memory to use(in MB) to max out the ram usage. In my case was 600MB. Do that for both cores. Actually any prog that runs both cores at 100% oso can lar I suppose. It'll be interesting to c how many ppl's rigs can tahan abuse like that. That's what I'm interested in.

test 1 round only....then set back to default coz like i said...OC only for benchmarking...

but did it 2-3 times la...

Anyway, had nothing to do, so here's mine...

Weird. Not much change from my actual score. Reduced by about 200 only.... (Previous 3Dmark06 score was 9295 at same GC settings....)


Attached thumbnail(s)

I'm having this problem overclocking my card with rivatuner. I have set it up to use the overclocked speeds when in 3d mode. But when I open AtiTool to test whether the speeds ramp up, it seems AtiTool will kinda overwrite my overclocked speeds back to default... It used to be able to work. Somehow it doesnt now.

Hmmmm. u've only lost 200marks. I lost thousands of marks running with dual instances of Prime95. I think I will give it a go with Orthos n c what happens. Interesting............................ Really NBTD lar we all.

bro..u using 8800gts 320mb in SLi rite...just wan to know how many percent performance increase if 320mb in SLi..

guys..jz wondering...Gonna be a owner of Nvidia 8 Series..Jz wanna noe if XFX-8600GT Fatality worth buying?

is that model the one with silent heatsink? I recommend Colorful!

if not mistaken...maybe around 10%~12% only...

b4 this,ive read from western forum saying that,if u SLI'ing ur gc...the memory size wont be add up as such 320+320=640mb to use when using high res game,
thus reducing memory utilization as for high resolution game.dunno if this true o not..

but if it does true...better go to gtx or ultra as the memory utilization will be as much as default for those using uber high resolution.
