Woops... Lowest run I ever bothered taking a pic of is 3070 :(

well, tweaking is quite fun, go for a 3ghz run, as that is the cap :D

however, you can get that time down, i got a bit better with 70mhz less. what speed is the ram in that one?
 
gah, ive got the CPU for this, just not the ram. Anyone wanna lend me some gskills?

EDIT: Eclipse is cheating. Rules say 3Ghz or less. 3000.8 > 3ghz ;)

Yeah! That rounds up to 3001MHz, and if I can't use 3003MHz, you gotta re-run with the rest of us below 3GHz! :D

Full Folding Ahead!

we're allowed to round off the decimal. as soon as it's 3001.x mhz, it's a no go :p

Not sure who made your mobo, but can you change your RAM timings to look a little more like this?

It's an Asus 87V8X-LA, which is very similar to the retail Asus 87V8X-MX, but it has a newer southbridge on it. The board was made for HP and Compaq only and has a locked up BIOS. So unless there's a way to modify the timings from within Windows, I'm stuck.

Plus, I'm on Value Ram, so it probably couldn't handle it.
 
if he had the 10x multi to work with, i know he wouldn't be complaining about it ;)

Hmm, yeah... Sucks. Your RAM looks to be holding you back. :(

I'm not too sure... You might be able to get some good performance out of that RAM. I've OCed my RAM quite a bit so I have slightly relaxed timings from stock.

all right guys, simple rule:
get the best superPI 1m time you can, with one condition, cpu clock has to be 3ghz or less.
edit: due to confusion, round off the decimal. if for example you run at 3000.9mhz, that counts. 3001mhz does not. ;)

Uhh, what? hahaha :p
I need to be able to understand all this talk.
No need to explain.

Uhh... How did it take your 2.4 ghz Barton to do that in 52 seconds? My Barton clocked at 2.2 ghz did it in 42 seconds?
Click to expand...

MY 3000+ Barton does it in 52-53 secounds. Somthing must be wrong with his. Maybe his mem timings or his motherboard?

Common Blitz, i know yours can do better than that :p

Easy raddcliffe... I'm tryin here... finding time to sit down and tweak right now is a pain in the arse.
 
Well I've got an update to mine, I hit a bit higher, though I still can't get to 3ghz.

heres an update to mine aswell,I think I could break into the 27's with an win2000 setup

haelduksf run at 27.890s is over the 3ghz cap my chip does 3.2 in pi can we up the cap?
 
hm, so he did, by 1mhz. i'll talk to him, and no. no raising the cap. makes it more interesting. i really should have put it at a lower speed to let more people really play, like 2.8ghz or something

how about something crazy like 1ghz ...lol
:p

hmm, i could think of something interesting for a 2006 competition now that christmas is behind us :p

or even better, how about a new competition every month? :D
 
I decided to do this myself just for S&G.
Opty 165 @ 2.7
G.Skill DDR500 3-4-4-8 (2 X 1GB)(Testing for the max OC, never thought it'd be this easy on the AMD side to OC, my first time with em, and I gotta say, its child's play).
32.250 on Core 0
30.875 on Core 1

This chip is idle @ 21C (I swear thats got to be wrong, then again it is about 50F in my basement).
During Prime95, it didn't budge but 1 degree (again, has to be wrong just pure logic tells me that, but it went with 2 instances for 8 hours straight, without a hiccup).

I realize this test seems to be as much CPU as memory dependent.
so of course my scores are gonna stink because my memory timings are so lax. I'll update later once I get both cores to 3.0 :D
 
Haha, make room up top, bitches. :cool: CCU and Tsue are in the hizzy!

Ozzi should love this one. I'm beating out 270MHz 2-2-2 with nothing more than tweaks. :D I tried 3.8v, but DDR540 wasn't havin' it...oh well, I have more room left yet, so bring it on, hoebags.

Full Folding Ahead!

 
DON'T HIT OK! :p


tsue, i think your raptor raid is helping you out, you've still got .062s on me:

ironically enough, tied the score of my ballistix at 3-3-3, 300mhz :cool:

also, i'm locking this thread on new years and starting a new competition. ccu and i have been talking about what to do, but you guys get a say in the matter too ;)

Yeah, you would lock this thread and start a new one when you get SMOKED LIKE A FATTY at it! :cool:

hehehe, yeah. that .062 seconds is harsh ;) :p
i might be able to pull something out of my sleeve. it all depends on tomorrow :p
 
all right. this contest is over!

a big congrats to tsue and CCU for teaming up and taking the win! :D:D:D

i will make a new cnotest for january soon. if you guys have any good ideas, please fire me a PM :cool:
