Alcpone's Official 3DMark '06 Compilation

Yea i only get 17k with a single 280 and my triple core. What are good OCs on a 280?

My highest oc on the both cards are 756/1512/1377 with the volts at 1.2v... but, together it's 702/1511/1300.. As long as you can keep good temps the 756 will hold.. They both had 756 runs with the stock cooler also.

Yo CS that's interesting with my 280sc's that was my peak without raising any volts but keeping the card pretty cool in the IGLOO, it was 756 and no more, a few times i got a little higher but I had to change the other setting to much to get any gains..

I have 2 ssc;s to try and a ftw that susposed to do 810, so it will be interesting to see if i can get them to go higher then the 756 wall....

Still I love the 280 it's a monster, I'd like to get the 285's but the one i want is over 400, the FTW, and at that price i'd get the 295...
So i'll wait for the price to drop.

I have been able to do the 756 without the volt change also, but for some reason, the first card now has to have that in order to not artifact. I'm thinkin of next pay sending it in for rma and such. I've had it since they came out, so need to have a tune-up!

What makes me so much in love with these two cards, is the fact that they are about 600 units apart. So, they both can do the same, and even benched the same score one right after another.. That's the only reason I haven't thought of getting a Gtx 295, and going with a board that can get me above the 470 bubble that the 780i FTW boards have...

Man, with your Igloo... I can't see that not hitting around 810.. I've even thought of going water with these cards, just gotta get that case first, and see what I can do. I love my Cosmos case, but it's just not going to be loving to me anymore! The dang Corsair PSU makes this case look like a baby sized one!

Yeah, it's been a thought of myself to go and see about the Gtx 285s... I was the type that spent the 600 bucks for the SSC version of the 9800gx2.. But since I did the step-up, and got this Vanilla 280... I can see grabbing one of those.. Even if the higher ones are suppose to have the better chips for clocking.. I did just so little of a oc to the Gx2, and got the same place that vanilla's where getting.. So, I was left to believe, this is me thinking it no one else, that after the G92 cores... It's just a flashed bios... But, then again, I think of crazier things! lol

Here's my go at it.
I just V-moded my 8800gt, im trying to stabilise at 800Core but I have to give it to much Voltage (1.38V) and I dont want to fry my card yet.

14254 8800gt 775-1775-900 (1.27V) 720B.E @ 3.8GHZ (x4cores)

 

[p_o_s_pc]

I have my 1k pot sitting in front of me to voltmod my 9800GT(same as 8800GT) but i can't find my damn DMM so im not going it yet don't want to give too much voltage

 

[PP Mguire]

I got the 280 up to 756/1500/1337.

 

[Cold Storm]

Swweeet PP.! now time to bench it to death! lol

 

[groothof22]

ADD THIS

Update with cpu at 3Ghz and gpu stock.

Nice technicks

 

[PP Mguire]

Swweeet PP.! now time to bench it to death! lol

Only get 17109. Gonna wait to post any screenies till im satisfied with my score and its running on the new board and quad. AM3 and SLI support? FTW

All good man, all good! I trust a person on what they say till I see some fault in character.. So I can't wait till I can see those screens! I just am a Cablasian... Picture whor3 due to my Asian side.. lol...

Can't wait to see the AM3 and Sli going! That's going to be sweet!!! I'm finally going to make a budget Amd/Ati rig. Give it to my uncle, after I clock it to hell and back!!

 

[PP Mguire]

Im not a big fan of ATI or Crossfire anymore. Thats why i went the 280 route.

 

[OzzmanFloyd120]

Add me

Have the GX2 at stock right now. Give me time to reformat and I'll be back again.

 

[3dsage]

I have my 1k pot sitting in front of me to voltmod my 9800GT(same as 8800GT) but i can't find my damn DMM so im not going it yet don't want to give too much voltage

Hurry up and do it, I want see how your card reacts to it.
For sure though, A DMM is a must have with V-mods.

I have a 1K on also, But I think I have to do the GPU overcurrent mod. Cuz anything above 1.35V for longer than a minute, and my get Blackout.

@OZZMANFloyd, is that Quad SLI?

 

[p_o_s_pc]

its kinda bad that i have 2 DMMs and can't find them

btw here is the 1k

LOL, I got the same exact one

It took like 8 turns just to get the voltage moving, but once it goes it climbs fast.
I'll take pics of it in a few.

thanks Looks like i got the right one then. I still am not going to try it tho till i find one of my DMMs

Thats a good idea.

I originally bought a 10K pot, and had it all soldered. But that didnt even do anything, It maxed out at 1.16V

isn't that like .01v over?

 

[3dsage]

isn't that like .01v over?

Yeah

But I switched it for the 1K POT, and i'm sitting at 1.28-9 (2D) and 1.34v (3d).

I have to do the GPU Blackout mod though, cuz if I sit at anything over 1.35V for longer than a minute and Blackout. With 1.4V sudden Blackout

I just wanna sit at 850Core and i'll be golden

 

[PP Mguire]

@OZZMANFloyd, is that Quad SLI?

Cant be, AMD chipset.

Before you solder it on, be sure to test the screw, make sure it stops on both ends.

I had a few from RS myself recently that were bad out of the bag.

I was with the everything between 1600-3xxx series cards of ATI.. But with the happenings of what ATI did at the beginning of the 4xxx series, I just couldn't get myself to buy one.. So, this is for my uncle..

If the 5xxx series of ATi cards are good, In my thoughts of good, then I'll try again... Right now, I'm using Nvidia.. Not a fan boy, just like how they are right now..

Yup this is true, also follow the guide closely and you will succed.

Here's a pic of it on my V-Modded 8800gt

Excuse the mess I had to drop a couple fans on the card to keep it cool

2 HD4850s can be had for a decent price price and perform very well well.


The scores in the front of this thread need to be updated.

But, I just said I don't care for the 4xxx series...
