I.nfraR.ed Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Impressive. These cards really need an external power. Mine could do 340, but not in all tests, so I gave up. No time for zombie, because I need to make the "e-power" first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Don_Dan Posted October 1, 2014 Crew Share Posted October 1, 2014 Great score! Also good to see those red Cellshock in action! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stelaras Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Thanks guys . I love modding and "discovering mods" . I tried 3 cards but i couldn't find one with 600+ memories . Is it so hard ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Yes, out of 5 different models GF3's I have only one that does above 600. Maybe a specific chips to look for, but I don't have enough knowledge about these cards. Speaking about gpus though, mine could run 330-340 nature on LN2, but other tests were limited to 290-ish. Any higher and the screen goes into "color blocks on black screen" mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stelaras Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I used around 1.8V . How high did you go with yours ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 1.7-1.75, higher was making it worse, but with epower it could handle 1.8+ I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stelaras Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 No , because my card was able to get up to 1.85V . Higher and it was losing clocks . I tried up to 1.95V . It's not a power hungry card ... Not at all . I just used epower because i sometimes find it much easier & faster to install , than modding the card in regular ways (trimmers etc) . Especially when you don't know what you're going to find (like protections for example) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Well, might be it just needs some more caps or to replace the existing ones, but I had that thing on 3 cards. And I remember the same was happening on GT3 when benched 3DM03: http://hwbot.org/submission/2310105_i.nfrar.ed_3dmark03_geforce_3_2134_marks And 40MHz is a really big difference, maybe your card is just that great or I'm missing something. Did you try another card on cold? All I have tried on air usually get into the 270-280 range. Looking at the charts, only poparamiro managed 290 out of it and it's a non-reference design. It even has a power connector. Maybe that's the card to look for. Edited October 1, 2014 by I.nfraR.ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stelaras Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I only had two cards . The 2nd one was around 10Mhz worse in memories aircooled. I only froze one card (the best of two) . Max air clocks around 270 , like yours (but unmodded) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Not sure what is the max without mods, I had it modded from some of the previous competitions. I think it was 272 without mods and 284 with mods Maybe I should try older drivers, that might be the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
