I assume it was core bottlenecked actually, (which is a new one for these cards but hey yorkfield is quite a cpu) once you hit 1GHZ core this card really starts to cook, trouble is you need a bios flash with more volts to hit it, or a hard mod. and bios's for this card seem to be hard to find, not to mention no rabit support makes the hard maod look pretty temting, that is if I didn't fry every single card I hard modded. lol

especially being that i'm hitting 14.1kpts on a 3.65GHZ quad, i can only assume that with that cpu at 5.5GHZ I'd be well above the 15k mark especially looking at this review

http://www.vr-zone.com/articles/ATi_...w/4946-21.html
4.2GHZ quad paired with a 1GHZ core on the 2900.

just to let u guys know, i use vista (obviously) and i installed xp to a seperate drive. Atitool voltages ACTUALLY STUCK for 3dmark....


its a purely vista problem, i benched at over 1.45v

i can get 940core 3dmark06 stable on 1.35v, the excess voltage can only do good things

nope thats mine, thus far none of you guys have beaten that lol.

and what do you mean stuck? like you set the volts and tehn you could set the clocks and they stuck? or you did like me set the clocks as high as they would go on stock volts in 2d mode and then applied the volts?

edit btw have you tired the foxconn bios editor for the 2900's? seems to work, though i dunno about the 1gb cards.

Ok ladies and gents, everything is updated. So... according to the top ten, it looks like Nvidia and ATi are running pretty close together atm! What's really crazy is I just added 7 new ATi scores and only one Nvidia! Looks like it was a red Christmas this year! 2900Pro's for $150 rocks! Well, I'm feeling much better and Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to everyone!

They are only running close when you take dual card setups into consideration, when you are looking at single card performance (less variables) then there is only one winner

Yes nvidia does seem to be stronger in single card setup ati's top single card is coming in about seventh when added to the nvidia list..

But I'm pretty stocked I got top AMD score for X-fire...Even beat out the AMD quad core.....Guess I'll pull out one card and see what I can do there..

After writing a lenghty rebuttal, I just deleted it, and I am going to agree with you.

* We have no Intel quad core and 3870 combos listed?!

Just 100% isopropyl alcohol should do fine. Test it in a dish or something first.

Firstly, erocker-glad you're feeling better!

Secondly, does anyone have an explanation as to why my SM 2.0 scores are a little low? My SM 3.0 are really good but for some reason, I'm failing to get the framerates going in the SM 2.0 tests.
