Crew Strunkenbold Posted May 15, 2017 Crew Posted May 15, 2017 Very nice board. Im jealous, would like to have one too. Quote
Kotori Posted May 15, 2017 Posted May 15, 2017 Really great work Stelaras-san and Zafiropo-san, I did the my best but didn't reach 12000 3D marks, congrats! Quote
Stelaras Posted May 15, 2017 Posted May 15, 2017 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 . 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 ! Quote
Stelaras Posted May 15, 2017 Posted May 15, 2017 Thank you Stermy ! Your last run was very strong ! I tried to reach it with the same board (440bx) but couldn't . I managed to run the rage128 pro card up to 185/205 Quote
GRIFF Posted May 16, 2017 Posted May 16, 2017 Nice and particular board. strong and hard work. Congratulations. Quote
Kotori Posted May 17, 2017 Posted May 17, 2017 Zafiropo-san and Stelaras-san thank you for answering, i saw Zafi-san's post in my sub. In the case of a single CPU I think wprime and hwbot prime is not so much affecting RAM clock and latency, pi and paifast will make a difference. If dual cups, difficult runs 180mhz FSB in 440BX chip. About External PLL mod, If P3C-D can fine-tune FSB(1mhz step) on bios or setfsb, necessarily don't need a external controller, need only 14.138mhz crystal for real time clock and 16mhz or higher crystal and some resistor.

Stelaras Posted May 17, 2017 Posted May 17, 2017 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! 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) . Quote
Kotori Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 USB will not work at 16mhz crystal but PS2 is no probrem, in my case, I'm restoring to 14.318mhz only when use USB memory, would be convenient to attach a socket between board and crystal. Quote
