Super Pi 1m scores

Do it!!!

having a hard time making up my mind but i may end up doing it. I love those clocks you guys are getting and it is so much faster then my 5k BE was... I am going to have to think about it after i test my 5kBE that will make up my mind.

If the 5kBE works -i stay with AMD and get a Foxconn Destroyer
if it doesn't work- I got Intel and get some board with a P45 or P35 (what ever i can afford)

damn you guys your making me want to go to the dark side for a 45nm chip

why not? I am, but as a 2nd rig, I don't betray my bright side hehe.

 

[Chicken Patty]

hey my Phenom comes in a black box, does that mean its from the Darkside?

lol it is still the light side but the dark side of the light side. lol

I like this system already

chalk me up for 9.942s

Don't get the Foxconn Destroyer.

I hate you!!!

Next time we have a nice cold evening (maybe tonight by the looks of it) i'll have a go at beating ya. Nice score!

I want Fit's Spot and hit the Top 10..

Best of luck!

 

[Chicken Patty]

this is my best run with my current 9950. Its actually quicker on two cores in Super Pi.

Still not better than my 9850 on four cores

Nice one.

You could probably bring the time down quite a lot by pushing your ram a bit harder though. Are they the single sided or double sided sticks?

The low density modules (double sided) should be able to reach 1200mhz+ on 2.2-2.3v. The higher density modules (single sided) seem to do best with 2.2v, but you'll probably only be able to get ~1150mhz. You can also tighten those timings quite a lot. 5-5-5-10, and you can bring the Write Recovery time down to 4-5 which would help quite a bit. Not sure on the other sub-timings, maybe another AMD guy can jump in here lol.

Thanks for the advise. I realy have no idea which ones I have, they were sent to me by another member, I kinda just popped them in and that was it. But i'll look into messing with the timings a bit more see what I can do with it.

damn i want a C2D I think i am just going to say that my 5kBE is dead and make the switch

First run of SuperPi with my E8600 that I'm selling. Running it at similar settings that I did with my E0 E8400. Don't know/remember how well I did with that, but this is impressive for me.

 

[Chicken Patty]

^^^ good run there bro. Planning on pushing it a bit further???

 

[dark2099]

Have it higher now, but SuperPi isn't wanting to run, so we will see what scores I might put up with it in any benchmark.

you know I had some issues with super pi in vista. Sometimes it didnt wanna run. I went back to xp and its all good now . Guess vista and super pi dont go well together.

 

[dark2099]

I love how I am not trying and I beat my old best by almost .2 of a second.

 

[Chicken Patty]

nice, what is the stable clock for those things with proper cooling, not extreme cooling though. I mean air or water cooled. They can do upwards of 5.0 Ghz 24/7 right?

i had problems with Super PI in vista too. It would just stop responding even at stock speeds. at first i was like my overclock is unstable i will up the voltage alittle. That did no good so i lowered the clocks alittle also did no good. So at last i went back to stock and same thing happened so i upped the voltage on CPU,RAM,Chipset no good. so i was like ok i am going to run orthos overnight to see whats going on. Ran orthos with everything but ram at stock voltage (ram was at 2.1V) passes around 7hrs before i stopped it. I put in a small HDD (~10gb) that i just had installed a fresh copy of XP pro SP3 on with the drivers for my mobo and video that i used for a back-up if i corrupted my files overclocking too high so i didn't have to reinstall right away. I ran super PI 1M no problem then i let it run the 32M also no problem...

so what i am getting to is vista causes problems in super PI
