Halo_003

Yea I have seen the micro block and all its amazingness.  I would like to get into benching I am just to afraid to get my main system into it although I have thought about building a cheaper amd system for it.  

but I love reading this it is always fun.

Just bench it on air. I'm stuck on air until the rest of my CPU loop gets here. Just need to decide on a RAD, and then order it and fittings/tubing.

'Course, over summer it'll be different. DICE then, big maybe on LN2, finally gonna own Q's single card score. 980X + 295 on DICE or LN2 is a winning combination.

What would you do then Q? Let's say I benched like this: CPU @ 5400Mhz, RAM @ 2000Mhz, GPU @ 925Mhz/1275Mhz, and put out a MONSTER score on LN2? That'd be fun. In any case, DICE should do for the first few sessions. Then we'll see about LN2. Gotta find some suppliers here, see how much it costs etc. I'm not sure if my mom will let me, she's finally come around to the idea of DICE, all it would take is getting her to let me try it once, then she'd see how it is and stuff. Which means she'd cave.

Then... All that you know is at an end.

Halo the air bencher will be no more.

That would be cool Halo... I'm always up for a race!  No fun just sitting there.  Oh, BTW, my Mom will let me do anything I want

this is what i thought as well..but when i kept adding voltage it just got worse. and all i did was go from 1.18 to 1.20

and no voltage adjustment has me up pretty high..3d05. go figure.

yep. just need to go back and pick up a few gpus and re test them...i see awalleyeguy is over there trying to use his 980x to barely skirt by me on the gt240..lol
might have to go borrow one of those tomorrow and get my trophies back real quick like.lol

I really was just seeing if the 980 could put the 240 over the top since the 240 does not o/c worth a s***.
Also I don't have a video card that o/c well at all right now.
Seems a lot of the ATI 5000 series suck (at least mine). The only one that worked well was the 5770 that Reggie bought.
Got a MSI lighting 5870 on its way. We'll see how that does.

say nate...dont you have an e series cpu you want to send to your best friend in california??

I actually have an E8400 at my job which I would like to "borrow" and install it in my 790i and see how much I can tear it up.  It is sitting in a dell, so I don't know if it is a good batch, but I'll still rack some sort of points up in the 2d benches.

Drop your cherry 295 in there and tear up 01 too

also looking at grabbing a 480x, since the 980x isn't making the big jump as i thought it would....probably just wait for the lessor to come out and grab one of those.
