Posted August 26, 201212 yr Can not submit my score... after filling up the form and hitting "Submit" it gives me an error...
August 27, 201212 yr Author Thanks! Just submitted an other one with CPU speed as close at 4318 as possible... You're right, 8 threads are more than 4... - you gave me an idea! Will try it with HT disabled...
August 31, 201212 yr Author Thanks! I'm trying different tactics now... increasing the BCLK and lowering the multi... - also reduced the memory speed... Until now, just slightly better than before... but won't give up yet!
September 1, 201212 yr Author Well, reducing the memory's frequency doesn't help too much... but playing with the BCLK and CPU multi does show some difference...
September 1, 201212 yr i would still be trying but i have to take things apart to get it to work with bclk over 105 and i getting new hardware on monday suck as so i cant be stuffed taking anything apart till then
September 1, 201212 yr i found higher memory frequency helped, so fare i got patriot g2 1600mhz overclock to 2200mhz with 9-12-12-28 and a super high 1.720v
September 1, 201212 yr Author I did 2600MHz on my memories but can not push too much above as the wPrime score starts going down... my best score with the TridentX kit is 5.432... it won't go lower whatever I could think of tweakng more... - but I saw that SamSaveMax has changed his memory kits (at least it seems he had 16GB before)... so, I will try my Dominator GTs!
September 2, 201212 yr I just removed 2 sticks out of 4 for less stress. Otherwis, they are the same rams. Keep on trying guys.
September 2, 201212 yr Here is a tip. Don't try so hard stretching the speed of your rams when benching wPrime32. It doesn't make much or any of a difference. I'll be expecting you to beat my score.
September 2, 201212 yr Author Yeap, I observed... it's no so much about the max memory frequency, but the timings...
September 3, 201212 yr @ Newlife, I would like to save you some elbow grease because there is no way the 4 cores could beat the 8 threads i7-3770K in wPrime benching. So don't tear down your rig. Thought, i5-3570 could be beat i7-3770K in SuperPI benches. Â @ ZKA17, that's a vast improvement you have there. Good job! I shall return tommorow with a new score. Cheers.
September 3, 201212 yr Author Thank you, SamSaveMax! Both me and my TestBench were sweating blood... used Corsair Dominator GTs with this last one... And I definitely have to thank Newlife for creating this challenge! I did learn a lot by trying during these tweakings...
September 3, 201212 yr Author LOL, SamSaveMax! You're strong, man! I have one more idea... if that won't result in a lower score, then you're the best...
September 5, 201212 yr Actually, he's pretty good. I know cause he's one of my team mate. It's either doesn't want to compete or just dropout.
