PizzaMan Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 10 10 10 10 10.... Some little screaming GPUs we got here. Quote
der8auer Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 @ Massman Just one thing i want to add at the end of this challange. The basic idea of this challange is good but there is no chance to win with GT220 DDR2 or the mobile version. Some guys of our Team bought the DDR2 Version and were very disappointed about the performance. So maybe next time just one card for the challange. Quote
Massman Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 C'mon ... if you buy a card for a contest, you should do research for the best card. Apparently some guys didn't do it, although it requires only a few minutes time to realize memory is the bottleneck (hwbot graphs or even some reviews). Don't blame the competition for that mistake .

PizzaMan Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 What Massman said. We did research before purchasing our cards. We learned during the 5450 competition that memory bandwidth is a key factor with these low-end GPUs. Almost bought the Giga cards, but we realized they had the crap Hynix memory modules and decided to go with the XFX with 1.85v Samsung's even though it had a weaker single phase GPU vs Giga's dual phase. Why does the 03' stage end an hour before the 01' and Heaven stages? Quote

Yep i agree on that Guys on our forums wanted me to mention it. So i did Quote
EfterlysT Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Totally forgot that orb link was required in this competition.. Any chance to submit our results anyway ? We are not top 3. We have everything else that is required in the screens. Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted September 30, 2010 Crew Posted September 30, 2010 Why does the 03' stage end an hour before the 01' and Heaven stages? (Massman @ Leeghoofd's place) Bug. Just fixed the bug. Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted September 30, 2010 Crew Posted September 30, 2010 (edited) congratz Overclock.net, awesomely done !! Our little Leadtek 1Gb card was so low on clocks compared to the XFX and Giga cards... let alone the rams on that card , just breaching 1010Mhz Just as a comparison wit the better cards out there : 675/950 was all she ever did on air (no mods)... otherwise it would cap out. Either we compromised with lower ram clocks to get the shaders over 1500Mhz... But we had mega fun during the 2 hours and a half battle... thx massie, next time we start a bit more prepared lol... or let's say pretested... see you all next time !!

trans am Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Pizza Man you kicked so much ass in this contest! I was on the ocnet forum although im not a member and was just reading your thread and saw all the work you put into this thing. You definitely earned it. You kept everyone on their toes the whole time. I'm glad you came back around and took that 3rd stage. I was not prepared to explain that score if I won. I honestly have no idea how the hell I got that score. Its beyond me. I knew if I won I would have a bunch of my oc colleagues asking me a bunch of questions I was not prepared to answer because I honestly have no idea how that happened. I'm having a beer right now to celebrate your trifecta win. Its awesome and your hard work paid off. http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u262/PizzaManWill/003-1.jpg take care alvin Quote
PizzaMan Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Thx Trans am. The extra modding(caps and inductor) had little effect on this card. If I had more time I would have done an external power source. The PCI power was really hindering this card. Didn't really expect that after clocking the 5450 like a dream on the PCI wattage. Most the extra points came from hours of testing and tweaking before actually benching the card. Quote
El Gappo Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) Well done guys, thoroughly deserved win ________ Cat Wheels Edited May 13, 2011 by El Gappo Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted October 1, 2010 Crew Posted October 1, 2010 Still don't get it how you ever got that score done Trans Am. Not with them clocks for sure... Did you downclock for screenshot purposes ? To all great job ! Let's move on to the next one Quote
GENiEBEN Posted October 1, 2010 Posted October 1, 2010 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 210 is still in retail ~40E Quote
