Jr vs Chicken Patty Bring it Battle!

[(FIH) The Don]

oh yeah that was the problem, didnt remember

ROFL http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8410qUT4QtA&feature=player_embedded this one is ONLY for CP, when he's running benches he can listen to that

 

[brandonwh64]

OK BIG UPDATE! you were right don. i boosted the fan speed to 100% (which is loud BTW) and redid those clocks and it worked perfect. it didnt add much score.

 

[(FIH) The Don]

yay, but not worth it? didnt think either, only to get some bench numbers,

but good it was a heat thing, and not something wrong with the card

 

[brandonwh64]

well i went up another 25mhz and driver failed OCing this card isnt really worth it

 

[(FIH) The Don]

then dont bro, if it does what you want it to do at the old speeds then there is no reason for oc'ing it more,

but one thing, are you using msi afterburner? then try and give it some more volt, not much, like 0.005 everytime

 

[brandonwh64]

hmm i have never thought to use MSI afterburner. can you change the voltage using it?

 

[(FIH) The Don]

yep you sure can, the top slider is voltage regulation

 

[Thrackan]

OMG I subscribed to a slowchat

 

[brandonwh64]

it doesnt let me change the voltage

 

[(FIH) The Don]

hmm exit the program

go the the folder where its installed

open the msiafterburner CFG file with wordpad or similar

and change unofficialoverclocking to 1

tried that. still nothing

 

[(FIH) The Don]

weird, try evga precision, i think you can change volts there too?

 

[brandonwh64]

nope evga program doesnt have it either

@Naekuh

What you mean I said you can't get twice my benches? Never said or intended anything like that.

This comment... However it wasnt 2x, it was that both u and chicken's score added together would be less.

BTW I'll have a 3870 soon, see if my i7 with one card can beat AMD with 2 (not likely)

I bet it probably can, especially in 3dmark 06. It loves clock speed.

Highly doubt it will.

 

[Thrackan]

Just popped the CPU from 2.8 to 3.5, increased scores from 14something to almost 18k

 

[Chicken Patty]

Well, I'm down for the count for god knows how long. The SSD in fact did take a crap. I'll keep you guys posted.

 

[(FIH) The Don]

that sucks bigtime man, so you're gonna rma the thing?

 

[Chicken Patty]

Yeah, Paul is gonna be setting it up for me so I can send it directly to Super Talent. Freaking' B/S man. I was just starting to get happy once again

 

[(FIH) The Don]

well thats one good thing though,

but yeah, it sucks, you can only hope they do a quick rma on it,

HOpefully, hardware has just been very bad to me lately, dammit!

 

[(FIH) The Don]

ye i hear you on that,

you're no the only one, several of my friends had breakdowns on their systems too lately, must be epidemic

i hope(knock on wood) that my mobo arrives tomorrow and everything will be good, really really dont wanna do a rma, since i just shipped out the amd setup

i called it.



ive had many many problems simular to that, and it translated to either:

1. dead board
2. dead hd.

Well I tried the SSD on my i7 and it worked for a few. so It's back on the AMD rig now. I have all drives connected, but the raid is disabled in the bios. I think this might have been the issue from the get go. As time passes I'll see if it's that or not.

Ahh poop this turned into a fizzer im a dissapoint.
