Asmola Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) Hey man ... wanna pick my hardware too? Hmm, where did you heard our secret? I must agree, that was my 7970 which was poorest air-overclocking one i have seen so Petri wanted to try it with LN2 so we made a deal. I think Petri wont regret that deal at all, correct?

SF3D Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 No, this was the deal of the year! Crap for one, is gold for some other Now I just need to find 3 more cards, which can do 1700MHz.. piece of cake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 So, not only is Asmola the guy who will do everything as long as you challenge him, he's also the one with the golden hand in Finland! Asmola, I challenge you to find another good CPU! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asmola, I challenge you to find another good CPU! At least im not afraid of taking challenges! And not so sure about the golden hand, i ordered those from online store that you might know, so there is one goldenhanded storeman/consignor in Turku!

SF3D Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) OK, got more ln2 and did some 3DM11 tests. Card worked just like before and CPU did help a bit for the score. Here is the result: http://hwbot.org/submission/2253306_sf3d_3dmark11___performance_radeon_hd_7970_14791_marks Here is the video how it is done: Edited February 13, 2012 by SF3D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiwa Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 awesome run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 Thanks guys. I am finding my motivation to bench once again. I bet ivy bridge + new vga's will make this year interesting, so I need to get rid of all the rust on me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Leeghoofd Posted February 13, 2012 Crew Share Posted February 13, 2012 Looking forward to some top scores from our Finish friends !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ME4ME Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 great result Petri! Nice seeing your videoclips agian too. btw any idea why GT4 isn't scaling? Should be well over 50 fps .. probably 55 or so. Maybe the lost vga signal has something to do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF3D Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 You need to have better GPU to keep scaling past 1600MHz. It is all about the GPU. My previous chip did not scale over 1500MHz, cause it was crap. This scales well up to 1600MHz but then it is starting to loose it's efficiency. Well, would be cool to bin 10 cards and pick some good ones for 15K+ scores This might not be able to do it, even the clocks would go 1700+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ME4ME Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 So .. lets say Lightning/DCUII/Matrix hit 1800, there's a chance we'll still be stuck at 15K? lol amd always succeeds to fuck something up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, some 1800MHz scores will look ridiculous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SF3D Posted February 17, 2012 Author Share Posted February 17, 2012 Great work SF3D. Nice to see you back in the game ! Thanks! Back in the game...well, I wont return to full scale benching anymore because there is 0 time for it, but I do what I like and when I am able to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
