Posted August 11, 201113 yr Heyo, So, as you all know, this weekend there's the third edition of Tones OC Academy in Utrecht, Holland. This time, we'll be cooperating with MSI. Of course, we have to prepare ourselves and check that all the hardware that the students will be using is actually functioning properly, so we spend some time figuring out if that was indeed the case. As you already know, there will be 20 lightnings at the disposal of our students. So ... let's test them on stock air cooling and find out the average capabilities of this graphics card! Since these cards are totally, totally retail, I figured it should be quite interesting to see what these cards are worth when they are not pre-tested and then sent to award-throwing media Pictures (quite of lot of these cards had a Japanese support sticker on them. Sorry Team Katana!) Results - benchmark test: GT4 3DM11 - all mem results are artifact free - only 10 minutes per card, so not that extensive OC Since we only used one subtest of 3DM11 for the testing, it's quite possible that the actual maximum of these cards is a tad lower when running the full run. Perhaps someone at home can test the difference between GT4 stable clocks and full run stable clocks on stock air?
August 11, 201113 yr Author Oh right, one more thing. One or two of the cards had the BIOS switch locked in on CBB fix, meaning the actual clocks were lower than the advertised clocks. So, if you buy this card, you might just want to check if it's booting from the right BIOS.
August 11, 201113 yr Crew sigh, each one of these card spanked my review samples grrrrrrrrrrrrrr See you guys on sunday... ( sorry SOF no beer when there's LN2 in the room )
August 11, 201113 yr sigh, each one of these card spanked my review samples grrrrrrrrrrrrrr See you guys on sunday... ( sorry SOF no beer when there's LN2 in the room ) It might be a sign that you suck even more badly than Massman.
August 11, 201113 yr sigh, each one of these card spanked my review samples grrrrrrrrrrrrrr See you guys on sunday... ( sorry SOF no beer when there's LN2 in the room ) Did these Samples spank your review sample, or did Massman spank YOU?
August 11, 201113 yr Crew It might be a sign that you suck even more badly than Massman. It's a clear sign your intelligence is not yet up to scratch Jonas... it's comon knowledge : everybody sucks compared to massman Did these Samples spank your review sample, or did Massman spank YOU? no further comment... I leave you with you erotic day dream Kenny Is it okay if I'm NOT there at 7:00, but later? 07:15 then ? Edited August 11, 201113 yr by Leeghoofd
August 11, 201113 yr Is Christian Ney the new Massman or not ? Press F1 for yes, press F2 for yes What if I press F3? Is that yet another sign of my not-so-fully developed intelligence?
August 11, 201113 yr What if I press F3? Is that yet another sign of my not-so-fully developed intelligence? if you press F3 you will find out (F3 is the search shortcut on windows, for those you don't get it)
August 12, 201113 yr Good thread. You guys are so lucky I hope you had a chance to select few of the best ones for Ln2 testing? It would be very cool to see same cards tested at fixed settings and then with max oc. If possible test like -100C and see how the cards are doing and then max oc. We should see some greater differences between those cards. Yes, I know you can not do it, but I was dreaming anyway. And with amount of binning we are like this nowadays
