Hey everyone!

I've just finished tweaking my new rig!!! My laptop blew up (lightning) and i hated the Dell, so borrowed my mum's credit card and started building. :laugh:

<= Spec is on the left!

Ok... Overclocking!!!

I didn't have a lot of money, so I went for a couple of sticks of 512mb 533mhz DDR2 ram by Vdata, which overclocked great! They're running stable at 700mhz 1.95v in dual channel mode! :D

I got the Intel P4 640 3.2ghz, and that's gone streight up to 3.9ghz :twitch: With a max temp of 65*c

Went for the Club3D X800XL, which is an awsome card for the money! I've yet to put some ramsinks on it, but it seems to be performing great at the min. I'm hoping to get it up to 6000 3dmark05 points somehow, but it doesn't seem to want to go any further :ohwell: I've tried turning it into a X800XT, with a bios i modified. There was 1 XT that had the 2.0ns memory, so i got that, changed the clocks, flashed... then realised the r423core bios didn't like my r430 core very much! :laugh: Flashed it back, and it's fine. ;) I also tried a Genuine ATI bios for it, but this actually lowered the performance and max clock speeds :shadedshu

I really need a new PSU... I had very little money, so was forced to go with a cheap'n'nasty 450w psu from a company called 'mercury.' This thing sucks soo badly. When i do benchmarks or play games, i see a 0.6v fluctuation on the 12v rail... :wtf:

I got a lovely clear acrylic case with 5 80mm fans. Seriously... there is almost a tornado forming inside!!! LOL :D

Ok, benchmarks!

All my 3Dmark scores are in my sig.

In Everest, this is what my memory Did:

Read: 7364mb/s
Write: 2324mb/s
latency: 77.9ns

According to everest, the ram timings are 5-6-6-2. Not sure if this is good or not for DDR2.

Anyway, all comments/questions/tips are welcome!


I also have Sandra, but the benchmark scores are confusin as hell! :eek:

I'm going to try clicking start, run, and type msconfig, and click on startup tab dissable everything (temporarily), restart, and i should have a lot more free ram to play with.

Hope i can get there! I'll tell you how it goes. ;)

i dont know maybe that will work but doing the msconfig way the computer gets really stubborn and wont let you run somethings. but give it a go and tell us what u get.

Ok, It didn't work! :cry:

But i just went to change a few settings in Catalyst control center, and it seems like the graphics drivers have screwed up :ohwell:

Anyway, i'm due for a fresh installation of XP, so i'll try out the omega drivers and see if i can get a few more points! LOL, i won't stop till i get to 6k :p

I'll keep you posted! ;)

Thanks

Hey tony... lets play... SNAP!!! I win!!!

I've got exactly the same. I think i should modify my sig to say 2x 512.

Umm, i also have to change my system spec then. It's 2x 533mhz, that at the time i had running at 667mhz. Its pc2-4200 on the startup screen when it's not overclocked.

It does overclock lovely doesn't it! Doesn't really get very warm either!

Didn't quite make it to 6k yet :( Still working on it tho. I think i need some ramsinks to go on it. The only problem being that i'd have to get another heatsink for the core, as the one that's on it at the moment half-covers the chips at the front :(

yea you win
your p4 640 at 4.2 my p4 660 4.32
your 4200 at 700 my 5400 at 699
like i said i need to take a lesson from u but mine idles at 29c and 100% cpu useage for a while at 48c and is at stock voltage (cpu-ram) and if u check out the case gallery i am well over the 6000 mark on 05 and i can still add anthor gpu at full bandwith in sli mode:)
but i think it cool that we went the same route when picking out our hardware

yeah! :D

I wish i could afford to get a second graphics card to put in cross-fire mode... that would be so cool!. I still havn't figured out whats restricting my card. It's soo close to 6k, but it's not quite getting the last few points :(

I've just spent 3 hours trying to tidy up the cables... After that, it looks 'presentable', but i have learnt to have a lot of respect anyone with neat cables!! Anyway, that paid off, the airflow through the case is a lot better, + it looks better! :D

Would it be worth putting some pics of mine in the case gallery? It's not exactly 'extreme,' lol, and it's put to shame compared to some of those machines!!

Anyway, i'm gonna see if i can floor my gpu and get those last 58points! :D I'll tell ya how it goes!

EDIT:

OMG... 3 more points!!!



Can't we just round it up?? :D

wow!!

SECOND EDIT!!!

I DID IT... WOOOT!!!! 6K !!!!! *starts jumping around and knocks pc off table! :p*



I'm soo happy!

Thanks :)

I saw how well the sapphire X800GTO2's do, getting around 6k in the 3dmark05 benchmarks after being modded to 16 pipelines, which made me think 'I NEED to get 6000+' :D

I'm very competetive like that!

ps: what's it like in athens this time of year?

Just hit 6092... but i think i'd need to do a volt mod to get it any higher at stable clocks. :shadedshu

I think i'll get myself an aftermarket cooler on it, with some decent copper ramsinks, then i'll do a pencil voltmod and really crank the clocks up. :D

i just finished testing my P4 @ 3.85ghz now i've got my new cpu cooler.

I left it for 8 hours with 2 instances of prime 95, while watching temperatures and Throttlewatch and it's completely stable, so i think it's time to try for 3.9ghz!

Lately i havn't been able to get to 6k, i think it's because i slowed down the ram while the cpu's overclocked... I'll have to have a tinker with that. I'm still waiting on my ATI silencer! That should help me get the clocks up to around 500/570mhz!

The R430 core sucks for overclocking though, i need to get something with the R480 and 1.6ns memory! that would own!

Benchmark Scores I dont have time for that.
well even if the rams slow.....since its running slow try to tighten the timings that might give u some beching preformance.

yep. I'm still trying to find my cpu's max at the moment, it's running at 560mhz atm.

I'm now testing my cpu @ 4ghz!!! It's been running 2 instances of prime 95 for 30 mins so far and is looking good. Max temps i've seen so far with my new cooler is 67c, which i don't think is bad for 4ghz, 1.41v with HT enabled. I'm also keeping my eye on Panopsys ThrottleWatch and there has been no throttling since i got my new cooler!

Also, i've played with the timings a little bit... but each time i do it, my pc crashes. Do they have to all be sincronised? What i mean is... If i lower one, do i have to lower them all?

Benchmark Scores I dont have time for that.
not that i know of...like i was running 3,3,3,8 but when i put a divider in i ran 3,3,3,6 because i changed 8 to 6 however the other 3's i dont know maybe but iv seen 2.5,3,3,6 so maybe its just the 2 middle u need to keep the same.
