Kal-EL Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 Hey guys, if you could shed a little light on whats going on here. System Specs: Evga X58 E759 (air) Intel Xeon 3570 (cold air Mehaharlem) 4.7ghz HT on HIS 5970 (cold air) 825/1127 Display Driver on HIS disk w/out CCC and using Afterburner to OC. WinXP SP3. No LOD or any other tweaks. Here was my progression of benchmarks: I see that the scores are much higher than everyone elses on a per clock basis but it continues to scale upwards with each increase of my clocks and is repeatable to the upteenth time. So is this a common type of bug? If you could explain in detail for my noob4life sake I'd appreciate it. thx. Quote
Gautam Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 I'm afraid the only scores that don't seem to be bugged are the 118k and 123k. The 92k seems bugged low. The jumps are very unnatural from 92 to 118, 200 FPS more in the last 3 game tests which are gpu bound with no increase in gpu clocks. Then once again they're absurdly high from 123k to 141k, esp with such minimal increases in clock speed. The 141 is already bugged, then the 164 is even more badly bugged (GT3 extremely bugged high in that one) Proper score around your speeds should be like this one, but quite a bit lower since your card clocks are much lower. Could mean a part of your system is unstable, maybe the CPU. Switching to a newer OS (Vista/7) and setting affinities could alleviate it. Quote
Kal-EL Posted December 14, 2009 Author Posted December 14, 2009 (edited) Thx G-man, still tryin to figure what the dealio is. Might have to rma for scoring too high. K, ran it stock in win 7 32 and then overclocked it to the same clocks as xp 32 sp3 here is what I get: OC Edited December 14, 2009 by HawaiiSuperman Quote
Massman Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 Do you reboot after you switch on CF? Quote

Kal-EL Posted December 14, 2009 Author Posted December 14, 2009 CCC isn't installed, just the display driver. Never did anything having to do with enabling cf, just ran Afterburner for the OC. I reboot several times to check to see what the problem is but this is repeatable as much as needed, back to back benches etc. Quote
Kal-EL Posted December 14, 2009 Author Posted December 14, 2009 Well, I got an a/c unit blowing on it but yah, it runs pretty hot normally. Gonna try some other benches to see if its out of line as well. Might wanna keep an eye out for other submissions with similar behaviors. Lemme know if you guys want me to try something else. Quote
Kal-EL Posted December 14, 2009 Author Posted December 14, 2009 CF can be enabled with CCC? This is my first ATI dual GPU card. When I had two 5970's installed I used the CCC control panel to enable x-fire. Is that what you're talkin bout willis? Quote
AndreYang Posted December 14, 2009 Posted December 14, 2009 ATI GPU is very strange. If your gpu is getting hoter and hoter, the bug run score will happen sometimes. It can be repeatable for sure. Quote
Kal-EL Posted December 14, 2009 Author Posted December 14, 2009 I had to drop clock because of this Warm Hawaii weather but I dunno, looking at the results on the bot, it seems a bit higher than other at higher clocks in 3D06, no? still a bug? Quote
Gautam Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 Nah, that looks right. I think Andre's might be right, it's easy to get goofy scores in 03 when ATi cards are running too hot. Quote
Kal-EL Posted December 15, 2009 Author Posted December 15, 2009 Well, the load temps while having an a/c unit blow across are around 30c with voltage set to 1070mv. I'm gonna see how far I can take this bug later. Maybe crack 200k? Quote
