The "I'm benching and wanna share pics"-thread

[Blue Storm]

CFR PBC are much worse than CFR H9A what I saw and tried. Or am I wrong and only met very low binned CFR PBC which do max about 2550 C10:confused:?

benching in tropical far north queensland

 

 

 

if you don't recognise the below we like to use stubby holders as a pot extensions, (its a wetsuit material holder to keep your beer cold).

Awesome setup you have there Kenny.

[der8auer]

So I was benching with Stefan (crazzzy85) today and thought we'd share some pics here aswell

 

Don't know about you guys but if we start benching everything looks realy nice and clean. During the days it just gets so damn messed up. I'm always surprised how much the hardware can actually handle and it still works perfectly fine.

 

Ah yea - 56k warning

 

Let's start with some 9800 GX2...

 

 

 

 

... while Stefan was benching a HD 5870 lightning

 

 

Aftermath

´

 

 

 

 

 

Some other stuff laying on the floor

 

 

 

Oh hey there is another mainboard underneath

 

 

 

I think somebody messed up the manual

 

 

Insulation and soldering corner

 

 

 

ASUS Mars in the back and a 7970 Matrix burried underneath a broken 9800 GX2

 

 

 

 

No idea why there is a 8800 GTX laying on the radiator. Must be some stuff left from the country cup

 

 

 

Setup by Stefan:

 

 

 

 

 

Few other boards

 

 

 

260 and 275 lightnings

 

 

 

more lightnings

 

 

 

30 L dewar and some jugs. Bigger 150 L dewar is outside

 

 

 

Cupboard #1

 

Always something there to bench if I don't know what to choose

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cupboard #2

 

Mainly GPUs

 

 

 

 

 

L1N64SLI-WS. Cool board an nice CPUs but only 2 points per bench lol

 

 

 

 

 

And some bling bling

9800GX2 + e-Power. Complete and utter leaderboard annihilation, right?

[der8auer]

I got only one PCB to run so far. The Bridge chip is causing some trouble with 2 epower boards So I just used a card with stock VRM today.

[K404]

Not only do you have an e-Power, you have multiple e-Power How did it go without Zombie?

 

EDIT: wait, I see Warm-up runs?

Pretty strange. The card was pretty good according to the pretests. I could do 880 MHz core at -10°C and 1230 MHz on the memory.

 

I flashed the card with the coldbug free bios (which propably failed). The card managed about 900 MHz at -40°C but below that the FPS dropped to 20

[Leeghoofd]

It seems I need to cleanup my room

[Turrican]

wow, what a mess.

you have to be carefull not to step onto something.

[K404]

Karl.... it's good to learn to think in true 3D Now, I find it easy to walk through a bench area that is literally floor-ceiling with parts.... my brother goes CRAZY when he comes over because he never thinks about the floor or what is on it

Only 2 PSU's?

[Gunslinger]

Only 2 PSU's?

 

For what these things cost, you'd think EVGA could throw in a NEX1500W unit.

 

Buy 4x Titans get a free PSU. :celebration:

[Splave]

mike can I come down, I have your address want to watch that run vantage at 5.7

[Gunslinger]

My door is always open bro :celebration:

 

Only stipulation is you teach me some 32M while you're here.

[der8auer]

hardware pron at its maximum

[xxbassplayerxx]

Can I has?
