Since I am doing much better CPU scores with this new prototype block, I figured id give my old faithful card a good run.

thanks!  you certainly have a golden chip!  I can't quite bench at what your stable.  But I hope to get there...  im pretty close ;)

Nice Nice Nice Nate...Good to feel some success finally!  I was wondering if you rma'd that cherry card...nope, you still got it.  Make sure you hold on to it...you'll never get one back like that!

Great job again, bro!

that cherry card is under guard.  I have mounted sentries roving about, and a few snipers at key locations protecting my house.  Its nice to be able to hang with the LN2 guys, but there is only so much the card will do @ -6°C.

Have you noticed that your settings for vantage, will crash your system when u run other benchmarks?  I just downloaded a few, and plan on hoarding up a few points on the bot. 

Q56_Monster

Oh yea, each bench has its own settings.  06/05/03 kind of relate to each other but need to be tweaked.  Vantage settings are way too high for the older cpu weighted GPU tests.  I find 05 to be the hardest.  Some day I'm going to put my LGA775 board together with XP and have a go at 01.

I have a 790/Q6600 which I was able to do some damage with.  maybe I can have some fun with that sucker.  I cant seem to do any better then a mid 60K's in 3dmark 2001.  and thats with clocks in the 800's?!

between these 2.  whats wrong with this picture? 

but im running 225 bclk?!

Where is the "submit saved" section of 3d Mark 06?  I saved some results to the computer, but can't post the results

I just found a huge hole in my gpu , no matter what I set the core clock to via perscion/nibitor/msiafterburner  I cant run anything between 810 and 837??????

Then set the core clock to 838... and get to work?? 

Hay Nate open and right click on 3dmark 06 to get a drop down menu you should get a selection to submit saves

if you haven't already figured it out

Cheers

Nate push the cpu in older 3Dmark probably can run it higher than in vantage.

That sounds kina tough but ill try anything.

Nope, got it now! thanks!

wish I read that earlier last night.  I guess everything is so different.  I have been benching Vantage exclusively.  With the older benches, They run better or XP, but will they also run better on the older equipment?  like my 790i/Q6600?  because I got PLENTY of foam, and practically quick disconnects for my chiller to put the 790 back in the deep freeze.  My Q6600 is a very good chip, but it would take learning it all over again.  I could have it back on the chiller in a day.

Your i7 will beat the Q6600 in any benchmark, specially since your i7 clocks better.

It couldnt hurt to hook it back up, get a 3.8-4.0ghz CPU OC and run 01\03\05\06\Vantage with both one, and two, GTX 295's just for some extra HWbot points

But those tests only get you points for video cards, not for processors.  (unless I am mistaken?)

ya just the vid cards but there are plenty of cpu benches if you got the time.

yea, but without LN2, I don't foresee any records or titles.

now whats your draining water problems?

Do you think anyone would notice if I yanked out the processor in my work computer for a weekend of E8400 benching? 

I don't see my work CPU being a cherry.
