Get something proven to work.

I prefer good old Permatex Quick Grid (rear window defogger repair kit).

This ^^^

Same thing I've been using for a decade or more.

I had a packade of that during the socket A time but thats long gone, tried to get away cheap this time and it failed badly.. time to see what I can find in the stores around here instead now. Some car repair company must have something like that Pemratex atleast.

[Mr.Scott]

Most auto parts stores. It's pretty common.

How can you increase voltage on these old GPU's I use riva tuner for the core and memory but I'm new to riva tuner I can't find where it does the voltage.

There is no software tuning (for the voltages) here.

You need to hardware mod them.

[websmile]

No option, for a few cards were plugins you can google that made voltage increase possible. But on old series like 4,5 and 6 for example, there was no way to increase volts anyway with software, only possibility for this would be hard mod with soldering or maybe pencil mod, not sure the latter is practicable on geforce4

I see three commands shoted their results on Dual-socket A systems. Impressive, especially I.nfraR.ed`s

Hi,

 

i can't find my submissions in the Ranking and i have no mail why. It's a nice competition and i try to beat, but it´s hard to beat someone, who tweaks with 3doverrider.

 

EDIT:

Thanks for mailing me - i will rebench with CPU-Z MEM

[websmile]

It is always better to check the rules if you are unsure before the bench, I do this myself sometimes

I made a precheck and had to remove some scores, I gave reason at report to everyone who was hit by this

Done -

 

without 3d overriding Software

[MazdaMadsen]

I have a big problem, or actually two problems. I can't seem to submit my scores in wprime or 3dmark01. I have tried on both my competition setup, and my every day use desktop.

 

I get 404 not found in wprime whether it opens in firefox or IE. 3dmark01 gives me an error message stating that the server did not reply with any information/fault.

 

This sucks big time, since I have made a seriously good OC on my ti4600 @ 371/782 mhz and my cpu is running at 2850mhz.

[websmile]

I just tried the eocsports site and had no problems, please try again, might have been some down time

[MazdaMadsen]

-->websmile

 

It is not the hwbot or oc-esports pages that I get 404 on, well I just did on my work laptop, but the submit buttons themselves in wprime and 3dmark01. I guess it is something with my internet connection, but I can't figure out what. I won't be able to have top 20 ranking if I am not able to submit the scores to get the compare URL's.

 

I'm sad :-(

[websmile]

This is indeed sad, I did submit a score to test it yesterday after I read your post and it worked like a charm. The site itself works, maybe clear cache of your browser and try again.

[Strunkenbold]

I'm sad :-(

 

http://hwbot.org/submit/competition/osibs_s2r3/

[MazdaMadsen]

I will have to try again when I'm home. On my work computer the "submit" button in wprime opens the page for submitting to hwbot, but I do not get the compare URL. This is the same problem I have at home.

 

Are you guys able to get the compare links in wprime and 3dmark01 when pressing the submit buttons?

[websmile]

Do you mean validation links? There are no validation links available for both benchmarks, you submit including screenshot and that´s it

[MazdaMadsen]

Wow, that is indeed good news!

 

I was getting really frustrated.

[max1024]

Finally the 3-rd round has been finished Congrats to all! The best submission of the round think is I.nfraR.ed`s wPrime - 32m on Pair Athlon XP-M 2500+ at 3220MHz , it's unbelievable ))

[ZFeSS]

Thanks to all participants for this stage! 27 teams is good. More people = more fun.

It was great to see some serious numbers. Congrats to I.nfraR.ed and Stelaras.

[zafiropo]

Congrats to all teams, especially to I.nfraR.ed and Stelaras

Sometimes is too hard to find old school hardware.

Even if you have the ''best'' hardware for each stage, you have to be lucky...
