Test2 : 160 Mhz 2-2-2-7 POST + boot windows + SuperPi 512K

 

Ambient air : 20°C

vDIMM : 3.4v

 

They will deserve 3 Awards :

 

Crap Award

 

Test1 Ok Award

 

Test2 Ok Award

 

 

Let's start testing

nice collection.

but those with the heatspreaders are rdram and not sdram .

nono it's SDRam, it's Genuine Memory brand's design

 

I know they aren't RDRam, I have samsung RDRam but on my s423 rig these are 100 % SDRam

ok, that's nice.

Wow, impressive collection! I received an Asus CUSL2 in excellent condition (for free ) a few months ago, but have no SDRAM at home yet. So please tell me what SDRAM is worth looking out for.

Ok np, slnght wants some too

 

I will post the results when I finished testing

Nice. Tell me when you hit at least 180MHz

I already have the TwinMos 256MB stick that is stable under SuperPi 32M @ 180 Mhz 2-2-2-5.

But my board or CPU is limited to 180 Mhz I cannot have 181 Mhz

But I tried outside so ambient air was ~ 0°C

 

This test here is with ambient air : 20°C

This time was 3-3-3-6 But I did 180 Mhz 2-2-2-5

I added 150Mhz to the Test1 title

Damn! That's bad-ass binning.

 

Nice work!

btw on this rig SuperPi 512K takes around 47s to 52s to complete, so I thought that was enough to fill the box named ''Dirty''

Very useful, thank you! Is 2 x 128 MiByte enough for the Hwbot 2D benchmarks with a slim Win XP or will it slow down the system heavily so I have to go for 2 x 256 MiByte (or even more!?) to break the bottleneck? The last time I used a PC with 256 MiByte was 2004 or so.

I think Pi-32M benefits upto 1GB (2x 512MB).

hum when I bench SuperPi 32M on SDRam rig such as Socket 7 and s370, I only use the TwinMos 256MB stick, it's enough

Yes, 32M is likely the only 2D benchmark which might be limited here. Just thinking about a simple CW before starting 32M makes me feel sleepy already, hehe.

I've seen two 128 MiByte sticks which passed your 160 MHz test for cheap, so I think I will try these and look around in the CPU categories with SDRAM. Maybe I even have an untested 512 MiByte SDRAM stick in my closet. I can't remember exactly - have to look it up.

super pi 32m takes 256mb of memory, so haveing at least 512mb is the best when using copywaza (for me).

I don't use copywaza.

I quickly know what it is, having whatched massman's videos

Wow, that's a major collection of SDRAM! The database of what you have there is impressive as well! I wish I had the organization skills to take notes like that. It would definitely help me out keeping track of what I have and what it can do. But alas, I'm lazy and unorganized and would probably make most of you pull your hair out if you saw how I have have things so-called "organized." When I'm deciding what to bench, I spend half my time digging through boxes, or drawers or random flat spaces I just set things down on just so I can find what I need to get started. I know what I have, it's just finding where I put it is my problem.

lol,

 

btw I have same sheets for CPU and GPU with the best batch/serial number written down, that if I bench the cpu again I know which one was the best.

 

For exemple here is the s370's Page:

 

 

 

ho and btw ''caca'' means ''pooh''
