Cool. Will download it today. Haiyaaa.... have to find a stable OC again....

Ok, downloaded the new rivatuner. Soooo easy to OC the shader clock....

Now testing at 648/1620/972 mhz.....

Edit : Eh, why didn't it combine with my previous post.....

@kmarc
What driver are you using? 163.67?

Using the latest, 163.71. And I'm running XP.....

its that latest rivatuner 2.05..? cos i see the shader clock setting there..

Hmm, I'm using 163.69 now but shader clock adjuster is not shown. Maybe it's time to format. My windows is full with 965-S, 680i and P35 drivers.

Yup. The latest, version 2.05

You have to set the NVAPIUsageBehaviour to 1 in power user setting, the first option Rivatuner>system. It is stated in the link you've provided above.

hyde'fk

please show ure graphic system monitoring report
and please state the purchase date

would like to see when the transition to A3 happened.

Ah, I missed that part. Thanks man.

Sure, wait till I get back home from work first.

ok bro..

Ok, tested for almost 2 hours with ATItool. No artifacts but core temp shot up to 83'c.... Hot day today.....

Going to test with games later on....

Max I could get for my card is 648/1620/972mhz...... Not as high as some forumers card....

Shader clock at 1674 mhz will cause artifacts.......

Edit : Hmmmm.... anybody tried underclocking the shader clock? Wonder how low it can go.....

Wow! I just read about sum rumors regarding the latest news on SLI. Intel may get Quad SLI on the Skulltrail mobos. 8 Lanes PCIe for each slot. Upcoming n780i may haf 3 lanes for triple SLI with 16x, 8x, 8x lanes. Now just imagine a rig with Quad CPU n Quad 8800. OMFGBBQSAUCE!




Holy moly ur coretemp so high not worried kar. Better slap on sum superflow fans on the HSF man.

780i to compete with upcoming X48. 790i will also comes out which supports DDR3 only.

I first read about it here : http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/chipsets/disp...0919234702.html

Quote : The new platform for no compromise gamers will let end-users without limits of budget to obtain eight processing engines as well as four graphics processing units for ultimate performance. Still, Intel will have to ensure that ATI, graphics product group of Advanced Micro Devices, and Nvidia Corp. enable driver support for 4-way CrossFire or SLI multi-GPU configurations.

@ianho - I know you are thinking about building one of these babies....

I don't have the HR-03 ma..... that's why so jealous of somebody's rig....

Actually went to sleep while running the ATItool. Hot room without air-con at noon. Woke up almost wanna pengsan to see the temperature....

Temperature for gaming usually around 65-75'c depending on ambient temperature....

Well, I dunno man. Will hafta c how. 8 core cpu n 4 top of the line gfx cards are gonna be a huge pain in terms of $$ so..................... will c how the performance is when they appear. I'm not gonna jump into it unless the performance is really great. No point getting it if it's oni sumthin like 10% faster than a quad core CPU, 2 gfx card rig. For all that moolah, 8 cores n 4gfx better provide at least 50% jump in performance.

wei bro.. was asking for the revision no too..
didnt have to show the ati tool part...

its on riva tuner next to the monitoring buttong.. graphic diagnostic report..

curious as to what evga superclocked revisions are running.

ps the core temps are ok.. its being loaded...
somore idle around 67.

if this was the gtx/ultra it would be at 93-94 ...

and take note the 680 mobo they mentioned is with MCP55XE

striker extreme has this with the a1

Aaa.... you wanted to see the revision oso aaa? Mine is still revision A2 (brand is ASUS)

My GPU core will idle at around 58-60'c as I underclock it to 300/400mhz when idle. Thinking of underclocking the shader speed also....

Heres the report:

@cstkl1

Mine is A2 revision, was purchased on April.

for me i'll search the card that how low it fps can be...
im not going for higher fps,but better get the card that how high its minimum fps..
i'll try 7800gtx vs x1950pro both 256mb
if u see the sintetic benchmark,x1950pro win over 7800gtx,
but in real gaming,i give a credit to 7800gtx!coz the minimum fps is higher than x1950 pro!
even x1950pro got slightly high max fps rather than 7800gtx..7800gtx is tougher than x1950pro
