Calathea Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) One good competition after another, very nice job Massman! Will try to engage some people in my team. edit: Second thoughts, why GT 220? To me it seems like a overpriced card with crappy performance. In sweden, HD4850 can be bought cheaper.

Christian Ney Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Time to create a team , and also purchase a geforce GT 220 Quote
Massman Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 edit: Second thoughts, why GT 220? To me it seems like a overpriced card with crappy performance. In sweden, HD4850 can be bought cheaper. Just looked for the cheapest NV card still in retail (so hunting 2nd hand sales wasn't absolute necessity) ... and it was this one. It was around €50 iirc Quote
George_o/c Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Plenty of potential here in Greece http://www.skroutz.gr/c/55/kartes-grafikwn-vga.html?keyphrase=GT+220 Quote
Massman Posted September 3, 2010 Posted September 3, 2010 Anyone looking for a decent card? Since all the power comes from the memory, I'd say it's best to find a 1.0ns card Quote
Alriin Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 good idea, Massman.... i like this Challenge!!! ;-) Quote
der8auer Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 Same to me Now searching the right card :] Quote
Christian Ney Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 Subzero ok ? MM already said yes, 4 replies before Quote
PizzaMan Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 It being a team competition, I'm guessing that as newer submissions from a team come in the older(slower) submissions drop from the contest or do we need to wait on a final team score before submitting? Quote
Massman Posted September 7, 2010 Posted September 7, 2010 Correct. If two members have two cards and are submitting both, the best entry will always be appointed to the team . Quote
PizzaMan Posted September 15, 2010 Posted September 15, 2010 Card modded and benching around 1Ghz. Can't touch FTW 420's Heaven score. Quote
johnamd Posted September 20, 2010 Posted September 20, 2010 Asus Engt220/di/1gd3 Lp 1gb Pci-e Retail Is Good Massman? Quote
Massman Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 There's one ASUS card that has fast memory chips; it's possible it's the 512MB card, though. Quote
trans am Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 @massman, can you check this out? It posted but the score doesnt show up in the gt220 contest, just my old score. did I do something wrong when I submitted? http://hwbot.org/community/submission/1055651_ Quote
FtW 420 Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 @massman, can you check this out? It posted but the score doesnt show up in the gt220 contest, just my old score. did I do something wrong when I submitted? http://hwbot.org/community/submission/1055651_ Only things I can see are you forgot to open the mem tab on one of the cpu-z windows, & attaching a picture of the rig (not sure if this is 100% a requirement or not, I do it anyway). Nice score BTW. Quote
trans am Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 Only things I can see are you forgot to open the mem tab on one of the cpu-z windows, & attaching a picture of the rig (not sure if this is 100% a requirement or not, I do it anyway). Nice score BTW. Thanks FTW 420. I know that was such a stupid mistake on my part. I was doing beers and it was late and I started getting sloppy. I actually took the time to open all 3 cpuz windows with the intention of cpu/mem/mobo ss but I never selected the tabs. DOH! Oh well. It wasn't maxed out but it was the best score I have yet that I saved. I had some problems on that board i think the cb mod wore off because it would reboot around -110c. I took it all down and redid the mod and reinsulated and now its not posting at all. I think I did a sloppy mod and it shorted the pins adjacent to the ones I intended to short. I have been messing with the new amd am3 740 chip. I am so rusty with amd ocing. its been a year since I did anything on AMD. I had it up to 5.5ghz benching last night with the same gt220 and my scores were in the high 500 range. even with the gpu at 820/1600/800 I couldnt manage to break that intel score on the mediocre cpu oc. 2001 was laughable. Is amd that bad for 3d? I double checked to make sure the pcie x16 slot was actually running at x16 and not x8. either amd is terrible at 3d and spi or I am terrible at overclocking amd and I need to figure my settings out. i'm guessing all of the above.

Calathea Posted September 22, 2010 Author Posted September 22, 2010 AMD Ph2 is ok for 3d03, Thuban is nice for 06 and vantage. With a lot of jiggahertz it's decent for 3d05, but for 01/aqua it sucks. Think I got it all right there Quote
aTomic Posted September 25, 2010 Posted September 25, 2010 @FTW On 1000/2000/1300 card clock's and i7 920 @ 4,9ghz i can olny do 636 points. Could you tell me how come did you do 680 points? Are they any tweak's for haven? Quote
