    Another icon exiting the room.  :(

    Sorry to see this Steli.

    Drop by W9 sometime. 

    Hey Scott ! :)

    Hope everything is going well with you my friend !

    Technically, I'm not exiting . I've been on the ice for many years without benching , without caring about benchmarks and new hardware ... and as a result not visiting hwbot and any other hardware sites .

    Right now, my plan is to keep only the old hardware which i really love. I can spend some hours on my beloved 386 or 486 , playing some old DOS games for example

    For start, i think i will sell almost everything i have that is made after 2006. That means i will keep my 939. It's the only PCIE platform that i'm thinking to keep. I'm still not touching my AGP platforms/hardware. Maybe after some more years i will sell some more ...  but the P2-P3 era is the limit and i'd like to keep everything older than that.

  2. Hello ! :)

     

    It's been a few years since i last benched... and honestly i don't know if i will ever come back.

    I moved twice during the last 3 years and i don't know what and where is every of my hardware.

    Anyway, I managed to find some stuff and decided to start selling.

    I have more things that i may sell in the future. I need to find them and catalogue them ... test them ... etc

     

    So , here is some things for start...

    1) Gigabyte Z97 SOC FORCE LN2 - SOLD

    20200905_170500.thumb.jpg.c78d9438902adb86adb2062331d9ce69.jpg

    20200905_170534.thumb.jpg.408cb0707ffb1e97b7af40867e088ad4.jpg

    This board is totally unused. Never got out of the box ... with all accessories.

    I know it's a very rare item and there are both collectors and benchers looking for it.

     

    2) EVGA Evbot - SOLD

    20200905_170647.thumb.jpg.9ec05a90ec1d81fb45f4ba53ed1ff508.jpgv

    Boxed ... CD & cables .... in amazing condition still wrapped

     

    3) ATI 2900XT - Fully Boxed

    I have this one for nearly 10 years and never touched it.

    20200905_170816.thumb.jpg.8d7f8029cb063c390c9ccf63a6f37664.jpg

    Price : 90 Euro

    4) ATI 2900XT  - Unboxed

    20200905_170931.thumb.jpg.c043d76affedafac3ff5b7c9ff1684b8.jpg

    A second 2900XT ... no boxes/ accesories.

    Price : 50 Euro

    5) Gainward 4870x2 Rampage 700 Edition GS GLH . It's a triple slot monster and one of the best binned cards - SOLD!

    6) Nvidia 7900GTX 512MB

    20200905_171025.thumb.jpg.440725902d7e2830296f7465dc260370.jpg

    Price : 45 Euro

     

    If someone wants two or more parts, especially if one of the heavy boxed parts is in his list , i will make a bit better price for shipping.

     

    Thank you!

  3. I might sell mine for the right price...

     

    It's boxed ... with full accessories ... never used. Just , "NEW and UNUSED"

     

    PM if interested

  4. Kotori-san , P3C-D has the ability to use 100 to 180 FSB with 3 Mhz steps . Maybe a different crystal is enough , but i don't know if USB would continue to work properly . I have a turbo-PLL solution almost ready to be used , but zafiropo didn't want to mess with his board! :P

     

    I can also tell that board is slow . I tried some Spi1M runs but it's very slow compared to the BX chipset , so it just doesn't worth it (except for the benches that are not bandwidth hungry) .

  5. I thought tha lastest java for winxp was 7.71... How did you install it? I had the error..

    VIA MVP3/MVP4 is faster than Aladdin 5..

    But any way, your score is fantastic and deserves respect. try to beat it-)

    I remember seeing an error while installing the version 8 , but you just have to continue the installation ignoring the error .

     

    To be honest , i'm not sure VIA is faster . I have seen dozen of benchmarks from the old days till today . Also , wprime doesn't care about memory speed and cache (L2 or L3) . The benefit of the L3 was very small (Just a few points if my memory serves me right . :P

  6. Can AIDA really tell if your rage card is 64bit or 128bit ?

    To be honest i'm not sure . I have tested 10+ cards and only one of them was reported as 128bit by AIDA .

    Of course i couldn't see any performance difference from the other 64bit cards (as reported by AIDA) .

     

    I believe the best way is to read the core letters after removing the heatsing ( GL & VR revision )

  7. Thank you both :)

     

    Considering it's a dual CPU board it did great . I wasn't expecting to max-out the PLL at 180MHz to be honest . :D

     

    Kotori-san , as i can tell by looking at your score , our runs were pretty close in efficiency . RDRAM doesn't help Pentium-III CPUs and performs close to SD-RAM .

    I believe the main reason i got to 12K was because of the CPU . If i had your SH6 board i'm sure i would have scored way higher .

    The 1000EB CPU was only at 2.05V & -30C . It was enough for booting , entering windows and running the benches . Totally stable at 180MHz FSB .

     

    Thank you again for your kind words ! :)

  8. For me is pretty simple . Either you follow the rules , or you are not . There are not grey areas . That's the way I work/play/live .

    At the end of the day , clean conscience is all that matters to me .

     

    Quadro2 pro cards are NV15GL are able to overclock a bit better from the ultra cards . Especially regarding memory clocks . I tested at least a dozen of various cards during last year . There are some very few exceptions of course .

     

    Geforce2 cards are starving for memory bandwidth , so even a small raise in memory clocks can skyrocket the score . And as you can see the retail GF2 ultra's are pretty consistent and they max out at around 275Mhz . Even a 50Mhz core o/c can't reach a 10-15Mhz memory raise .

     

    @TAGG , there are still quadro2 pro scores posted . The topic wasn't only for you .

     

    PS . I'm not a bad guy . Please don't make me feel like i'm doing something wrong here .

  9. That's right . No magic trick except binning for cold . My first test is under SS (-50C) .

    For example , the Opteron 180 I used for this round is able to sit idle at -55C and 350-355 Mhz FSB , while at -75C can reach up to -330-335 Mhz FSB .

    I'm pretty sure it can bench every benchmark at 3600+ Mhz , but I didn't have time to find all the correct values ( Even drive strength values help with coldbug and stability at high clocks & low temps )

     

    On the other hand , I have a question . I am 99.9% sure that the specific FX57 I benched is able to run 3dmarks at 3800+ Mhz and 32bit OS . It's the exact same one I used during the teamcup 2014 3dmark01 round . For some reason I couldn't bench cinebench even at 3700 Mhz . Anyone else noticed this difference ? I didn't have time to test my other 3 FX's and I'm still wondering what went wrong . :D
