3DMark06 Scores...Amazing...Part 2

[OvrClkr]

Please post your best 06score here. Trying to see what setups work the best.

Here is my best at 3.6Ghz :

3.85Ghz :

Ryan closed videl's thread so i decided to re-open 😉


Much appreciated

how far can you push that card?

I have a BFG Maxcore 260 @ 655/1405/1220, anything over that is unstable 🙁

I just got it yesterday and the factory clocks on it are 680/1500/1250. Most reviews said they were able to get it up to around 720-730 for the core and 1325 for the memory. I'm so happy with it stock I'm afraid to push it. :lol: Probably get more brave after I've had it awhile.

I find it funny. Because I can have my Cpu cooler fan off. and Still never reach higher then 48c DOES that say something?

A dual core at 3.77Ghz will not produce much heat compared to a quad. My x2 550 can achieve 32/33c (LOAD) @ 3.8Ghz with a cheap Freezer 64. Once you upgrade to a quad core you will see how much warmer it will get under load.

1500 on the shaders alone is outstanding 😱

how much you pay for that card?

 

[Keiki646]

Nice. What speed is your GPU at (your list only has the 2D clocks)? Is it OC'ed as well?

yes, my 5850 is overclock

GPU core is from 725 to 765
and Memory clock is from 1000 to 1110

 

[Keiki646]

Nice score 😉 , what is you LOAD temps at 4Ghz?

Well About
core#0 58C
core#1 57C
core#2 53C
core#3 56C
Since I have the quad core and that is for each core temp

 

[Rustyy117]

overclock some more man! 925/1200 is easy, anymore on the core and I need to up the voltage.

Some would question spending that on a GTX 260, but every review has place it right between the stock GTX 275 and GTX 285 in speed, and oftentimes beating a stock HD 4890. Plus I don't have any DX 11 games and don't see any this year I want (not much into shooters or RTS). Gigabyte has used really careful binning to get the best chips and their "ultra durable" process of copper-based PCB, solid Japanese capacitors, ferrite core chokes, etc... to keep it as cool running and high overclocking as possible.

that 260 is going to give the 5830 a run for it's money =)

Already has and the 5830 runs on top

yea but not by much and we still have yet to see what AMD will charge.. they cut the ROP's in half compared to the 5850 so untill I see an actual bench vs the same card that you have I will still have my doubts..

They are using a regular 260 core 216, not the actual GPU that you are using.. Anyways its nice to see that the 260 was ahead in MW2 on all resolutions vs the 4890 and the 5830. This means that your GTX 260 will trounce the 5830 at stock clocks =) in MW2 😀

 

[videl]

Wow looks like the thread grew a lot...hope I didn't miss too much...
gonna post vantage score soon on my crossfire...got about 13k there...
and the 5830 is not that bad of a card if you think about it...it's made from binned parts...

That's debatable in all but the most ATI friendly titles. Even in Tom's review look how a stock GTX 260 (216) can keep up with the HD 5830 through most games and resolutions. This Gigabyte SO is way beyond that.

sup videl =)

No, the 5830 is not bad at all here are some specs :

it all comes down to the price tag

MW2 Bench

 

[microterf]

I have ~23000 in Vantage with 3 5870s stock, and a PII 965 @ 4.0GHZ. Is this about right, or does it seem low?

 

[videl]

Low? You kidding me?!? of course not...those are really nice scores...

 

[microterf]

I mean I know it's not "Low", but i mean its where it should be with 3 5870s?

 

[videl]

I really wouldn't know but you are getting close to the record score for vantage...
remember that in crossfire the scaling is never 100% so I would say you're getting what you should be...Nice score btw...I'm jealous...lol...in a good way...😉

 

[EXT64]

Which Vantage: Performance, etc?

What board are you using?

 

[microterf]

I believe it was Performance. not extreme. I'll check here in a bit

 

[microterf]

I want to OC the cards but using the CCC, when I click on the unlock button, my screens start flickering

 

[bystander]

With two 5870's and an i7 at 3.7 I hit P26000 in vantage. With 3, I'd expect more. The records I see with vantage are near P40k.
