Awesome ya'll! Extension cords and extra outlets will be useful. I'll bring a couple extra usb kbds/mice, 2 dewars, 1-2 extra monitors, slim pot for yos....anything else?
On the 'bring stuff to sell' thing.....are any attendees actually looking for anything? Just checking as am trying not to bring n^x more stuff than needed (for the 4th year in a row )
cyas next week!!
I've been looking for a Dewar. How much are you trying to get for one?
I'm not or sure yet if I can come Friday or Saturday yet but plan to stop by for at least a half day. Been too busy with work to bench anything lately. If I can get some time I'll get some hardware ready. If not I'll at least hang out and learn.

Thanks! I have a few left over from mining and this is the 3rd one I tried. Definitely got lucky with this one. It would do 1300-1320 without ocp mod at 1.25v.

No It's just a reference card with a Koolance block idling at 28*c. I need to get it cold to beat some other scores. Refence AMD card with only 4 phases. I just hope I don't grenade it, and if I do it's only the mosfets that blow. I can replace them at least.

You should definitely come! Bring your pots and hardware and we'll all help you get going on the ln2 experience! Stop in whenever you can. Don't worry about the fee, anyone with a 2 year old definitely deserves a break.
Thanks! Can't wait. The closest thing I've had to ln2 is a bucket of ice on my radiator. Hopefully I get some experience with dry ice before then to get an idea what I'm doing.

I'm about 2 hours away. It would be tough for me to get away for 3 days with a 2 year old at home but I would like to come and learn for a day. Looking to buy a gpu and cpu pot soon to try dry ice. I have a ton of leftover mining hardware that im not worried about killing too.

Best thing to do is just keep an eye out in the forum for a used pot much cheaper usually. Is there a trick I'm missing, I can't seem to get near your or Jan with same clocks
Newer drivers with tesselation off and modified memory timings with R_timings from overclock.net are my only "tricks". I didn't do anything to windows it's a dirty old installation that would benefit from a fresh install. I don't know what Jan is doing to memory but he has a better proccesor than me so that helps him.

So I just did some testing and I found something rather odd. The memory voltage setting in Wattman doesn't seem to do anything. I've tested values from 800mv to 1150mv and when checking the various VRMs on my card with a DMM I found that none of the voltages actually changed. So I'm wondering if that voltage setting even does anything. Because after some closer investigation of the PCB I found that the 1V AUX rail is using one of those APW8722 controllers which don't support software voltage control. The IR 3567B seems to only control the core voltage and nothing else.
I know this is old but in my testing I have found that it is just the miniumum voltage that the core needs at maximum memory frequency. I needed to raise this slightly to stop crashing at low loads like chrome browser when pushing the memory hard.

Thanks! I thought i cracked the bios limit but it was just that the card droops more when overclocked under load. I was practicing volt modding the 8228g on an old dead 7950 i have. It looks like it will be a piece of cake. I want to try dry ice but need to find a pot. Any suggegstions? I noticed kingpin has them but they are pricey.

Thanks! I spent some time today working on the memory straps and improved the score a bit. Was also working on getting the bios to let the card go over 1.38V but couldn't crack it. I might get the soldering iron out tomorrow ;)

I'll be bringing a tub. Too busy for fancy insulation just dip the whole card in and cross your fingers
