Super Pi 1m scores

[Deleted member 24505]

i tried them as high as 2.3 last night.on the chip themselves it says ballistix in white then some numbers and on the edge it says D6GH.on the ones i rma'd i could clearly see on them D9GMH.oh well,i might sell these and risk buying another st,in the hope of getting d9's again.

 

[giorgos th.]

if it is DDR2 they 110% use D9 chips...

 

[Deleted member 24505]

i'll pop one out today and post a pic of the chips.the others deffo said D9GMH on them these dont.

what are promos chips?

I like a challenge! and I dont need to cool my mosfets for stability like some others with much more expensive boards my ram will do 1170Mhz without breaking into a sweat, have not tried them faster but thats on just over stock voltage Bare in mind tho I am only pushing 1.55V thru the CPU to get that score, at some stage I will get the courage to up that to 1.6V (probably after a dozen or so beers!) then we will really see what she can do.

Personally i find that tighter timings do more for me than raw speed in Super PI, I actually did 2 runs at 4.2Gig, the first at 1170mhz 5-5-5-15 @ 2T, the 2nd at 940Mhz 4-3-3-10 @2T and the 2nd was slightly faster.

My board was 129.00 tatty thats hardly expensive. It's ten dollars more than yours on new egg lol.

hell,i just looked on newegg,mines $219

if my ram were'nt crapping out,i'd give you a run for your money tatty.if my mem would run as fast as yours i'd give you a bit of competition.i'm pretty sure my chip will do more than 4ghz.

But a much bigger price difference in the UK!

Lol, on air there is nooooo way a 67 will match a 68, I am on 4.207 on just 1.55V!! and by the way, my Ram was only running at 940mhz on that run but at 4-3-3-10 @ 2T, watch out for 4.25Gig+!! Although I have to say, in part it's down to the batch as well, you can read that there are plenty of 68's on good kit not doing 4.1Gig. The one thing with this board....it has a hugh amount of memory options for linked and unlinked.

I do remember reading that some of the new Ballistix used D6's instead of D9's which I would think is a bit poor considering I think Crucial own Micron! (or Vice versa?). When I go Vista I was thinking of gettion another Gig of this stuff (2x512MB) and slotting them in for 3Gig dual channel but I am a little worried now that I might get D6's which will hold the D9's back.

Edit: When running at 1170mhz plus I have the voltage set to 2.35V although they are strange voltage increments on this board, I only need 2.1V for anything up to 1020mhz, 2.25V for anything more between 1020 and 1110mhz, one thing I have noticed tho is that with mine extra volts only give speed, not tighter timings.

 

[Deleted member 24505]

can you post were you read about the d6's possibly?

i am a bit sick that they're not d9's.its the same situation i had with the p5b-dlx/e6300.good board and chip but ram crapping out.

i did try last night and it posted at 4.1ghz,but no windows.i am guessing its the ram tho',it just bsod'd before it got to windows.it just dont seem happy above 1000 whatever timings/voltage i try

Did you up the NB ?

It may take me a while, I am at work now but I will look when I get home but it was about 4 or 5 months ago on a forum, there was a tech support guy from crucial on as well, I think he was trying to say D6's were as good as D9's.....nonone beleived him!

 

[Deleted member 24505]

i upped the nb to 1.55v.do i need to up it more?

thanks tatty i think he was talking bs,theres no way these d6's are as good as d9's.i will be interested to read it tho' thx.

well are you at 1:1 on the mem or at 4:5 ? cuz the more I OC the more volts I need to the NB to get the MEM stable of I get the blue screen when loading windows

 

[Tatty_Two]

At 4.2Gig I have my NB volts at 1.7V!! And tigger, whilst you are waiting for me to find the forum, have a look here, the ones marked in red are the overclocking ones, just check your manufacturers serial/ID code for your sticks and match them up, not all D9's go like poop, there are better variations, this does not list chips but does match to maufacturers product codes so at least may help.

[Deleted member 24505]

the mem is at 1:1,i will try with more than 1.55 tho' just to see if thats it.

 

[Deleted member 24505]

i have the ones with the black arrow,i believe.i will try to get the 6400 ones i have marked in orange instead tho'.i will sell these on to a mate.

these-http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-090-CR&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=

cheap too

crap chips, that doesn't oc much

 

[Deleted member 24505]

i just tried the following settings-

fsb 510
vcore 1.5625/1.5750v
nb voltage 1.70v
ram at 1020 1:1 5.5.5.15 2.25v

posted fine at 4.1ghz but again no windows??

 

[Tatty_Two]

Tigger, might I suggest mine? do not be deceived that they are only 667mhz.....same chips, your just going to pay less for them, they are selling them at komplett and e buyer I think....maybe Aria as well.

 

[Tatty_Two]

can't beat ya tatty voltage on this board goes from 1.60v (voltage droop 1.535v) then jumps to 1.8v. It just won't do it but hey atleast my merntor beat me.

awwww how nice!

 

[Deleted member 24505]

are'nt they the same as i have now? what if i get the same type i have now? the 6400 ones are only £68 from ocuk.

thx tatty for your help

[Deleted member 24505]

incidently i looked at the chips again today,they have ballistix in the middle in white letters,some letters and no. underneath that and P6GH on the edge of the chips.cant post a pic,my pos cam wont focus close enuff.

would i e able to rma them for that? or would i have to make some excuse? they're not in stock till the 5th/sep.i will risk it and order some tho' i think.

edit---->nice price,free del too.i will order some this week.

 

[trt740]

awwww how nice!

okay then modified how my fans had them accidently pulling against each other now i'm stable a t 3.9 getting better.

 

[d44ve]

I have my ram running at 1500mhz and I am still having a hard time keeping up with your scores

I havent posted my new times yet


EDIT : Congrats on the 1000th post of this thread TRT
