Posted August 27, 201113 yr The good, the bad and the ugly. The good (always talk about the good 1st!) – finally - after huge investment of time and $$$ - good storage scores! The bad – I killed two ud7s in the process . The ugly – I had 4400+ pixel shader at 50x then when I go cold and move up to 55, pixel shader drops to 3100 – this happened to me on both ud7 and now on ud4, what the heck! 2D graphics memory is bad but I knew that was going to happen due to the 6970 running at 8x when the iodrive is in the other slot. Still - good enough for #1 for the moment . Under the current rules - I still think 50K pcm05 is a doable do, my money is on Mr. Pro and probably sooner rather than later. Go Pcm05! Storage – acards, fusion-io iodrive SLC, 2xC30064s, boot drive was a little old x25-v (cross flashed from a Kingston 40). Edited August 27, 201113 yr by SteveRo
August 27, 201113 yr Author Mr. Gluvocio - good catch - didn't 1st in this catagory get over 20 points at one time?
August 27, 201113 yr but... why global points for PCmark are going down ?same thing for all global ranks, not only PCMark
August 27, 201113 yr I think for some ranks the recent popularity decides the amount of boints given... think it's number of unique users submitting scores to a given benchmark using a given number of cores. Silly, but a rule that was implemented... for reasons I don't understand.
August 28, 201113 yr well ... I believe we should open a trehad about this situation for global points.
August 28, 201113 yr Crew sweet Steve really like this one.. i havnt benched for a while so i got no backup floating around, will be in the next few weeks and see what pops out.. im liking that virusscan, very impressive dude
August 29, 201113 yr Author Mr Pro, if you still have that stellar SB you had before and lash it up a ud7/6970 set up - I'm expecting 50k marks out of you!
September 3, 201113 yr steve, I learned How to do virus scan like your. Perhaps better. You have e-mail.
