mknwatt Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 I enjoy pushing the limits and finding my high score/benchmarks. Do you use any windows tweaks when running super pi. My best 32M run is done with my version of copywaza....makes a big difference....don't know why but it improves my 32M times by 6-7s. Timing is key when using it. Do you have any 3DMark scores? Would be interesting to see a 8800 GT in action. I haven't really looked/seen any benchmarks for them. My top 3DMark scores using an C2D E6850 & 8800 GTX @ 648/1026 MHz: 3D01-74592 3D03-47467 3D05-23285 3D06-14107 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
taowulf Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 3DMark06 - 14187 Futuremark's site is being odd, and that is the only one I can get right now. I haven't run the others at my current setup anyway, I don't think. I have been playing with the clocks on my 8800GT and 3Dmark06 is more tolerant of the higher clocks I have tried than the others.

mknwatt Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 That looks good (the score not the link) , what's the CPU Mhz? Edit: link works and I see all the info Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
taowulf Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 That looks good (the score not the link) , what's the CPU Mhz? Edit: link works and I see all the info I need to uninstall NOD32 and run these all again. Can't turn the damn thing off. But for now, I am going to try to get some sleep. Yeah, looks like futuremark had a problem with their server for a few minutes. it happens. Oh, and my last run at 4Ghz on 3Dmark06 netted a 14010, but I can't publish that one since I am on the demo. of course i leave the highest listed. The specs on that run is [email protected] 8800GT 735/1800/1010 RAM 850 5-5-5-10 3DMark05 - 23358 3DMark03 - 43269 3DMark01 - 64573 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mknwatt Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 Thanks Taowulf for posting ur scores. The 8800 GT appears to do better on 3Dmark 05 & 06 than the 8800 GTX. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
taowulf Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 Thanks Taowulf for posting ur scores. The 8800 GT appears to do better on 3Dmark 05 & 06 than the 8800 GTX. When I started testing at 3Ghz and the stock 8800 GT SC speeds, I was getting just under 12K. Pushing it from 650 to 735Mhz core has been fun.

Praz Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 Thanks Taowulf for posting ur scores. The 8800 GT appears to do better on 3Dmark 05 & 06 than the 8800 GTX. The GT is a good card but it's not that good. Price to performance it's still the best card at the moment that nVidia has. If a person can find one. 400MHz less on the processor, close to same score.

If a person can find one. 400MHz less on the processor, close to same score. True....they're priced good but never in stock. Now if only I could get my GTX to reach those nice OC. :eek: I've seen your guide and wonder......should I Soop Up my 8800GTX.

That's a decision only you can make. Base it on your confidence of being able to do the mods and the ability of buying another card if something goes wrong. On one hand the mods are easy to do but on the other destroying the card seems just as easy for some people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mknwatt Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Then my motherboard died. Sorry to hear.....that sux. My 680i also died awhile back. Might be time for a upgrade (780i/790i) when the selection and prices are better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the RMA comes back, i should be OK. If it dies again, I might go back to DFI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
