40k done, now is only hard to submit :P (Ricky/PedroRocha)

[JacobHansen]

I'm very pleased you recognize it my friend, in fact as long time overclocker I always value this part - I invested a lot of time in the preparation of the Bench Hard Disk

The importance of a good tweaked OS/BIOS/RAM may be not valued for some, but certainly not for your - that is what I call "THE ART OF OVERCLOCKING"

That's why for me 2001 is the best bench ever, 2003 and 2005 involved no Art or much less Art, that's sad , but we have to adapt for the new times

I thought everybody use alot of time on preparing their Harddrive for benching.. As you say your self, OS/BIOS/RAM is the half of the "result"..

For me there is only 1 true benchmark for system testing purposes. And thats 2001.. And the one with most prestige in the top spot! IMO...

[KainPT]

You should write a book on that art!!!

P.S. Charlie go for that beer man!!!

Thats one sick score.. But the Car-High and lobby-high.. how did you do it? I mean 183FPS CH and 225FPS LH. The increase you have there is higher than your +100-150Mhz cpu-speed should give, considering the 2nd and 3rd place score. Is it a combination of Win2k SP4 and the new drivers or what?

Again, one sick score

Take a look at Jason's score (#4) too.
He is at (only) 3222CPU/230RAM yet hes getting 166CH and 201LH.

Thanks

That was the result of the extraordinary bandwit of this FX-53, memory was "only" at 268 2-2-2-5 and other well chosed timmigs

The limit of my BH5 on this mobo is around 275, and we still have Ricky's mystical BH5's to play

Since our first tests with my FX-53 and Gigabyte, we are getting CH and LH very similar to these, even with older drivers (4.9) ..in fact the first test of all gives immediately 180 in CH with the setup not fullt tweaked yet

To be honest what impressed me much more is the 500 Lobby Low run, maybe I will do a short movie in my cam to share the experiencie will you

Of course these remimd me to a special thanks to CodeRed and his fantastic A64 Tweaker, thanks Steve

[bh2k]

Pedro, you are my new god. Awsome awsome work. How about some more pics of the setup and cascade?

[misteroadster]

yes with good settings the A64tweaker is a weapon , Pedro do you have shutdowns when you give max voltage to your FX and X800 specially under 3Dm2001 ?

[Pedro Rocha]

Yes we have it.

Part of "The Art" is to descover the exact limit (considering the amount of overvoltage), it is really diferent from system to system.

My FX-53 it is not a voltage lover, remenber that have done 3.300mhz with voltage bellow stock (1,4v) ...eheh to bad I did not take a picture of Ricky's face at that moment, he was so so amazed that thinks is a bug in Cpu-z, he only fully belive when he check in the multimeter ..after that starts to jump ..eheh ..that was fun

[PlatoonSgtElias]

WOW!
Thats a great GREAT score. 40k smashed bye "Pedro Rocha" all hail to PEDRO

[Pedro Rocha]

Pedro, you are my new god. Awsome awsome work. How about some more pics of the setup and cascade?

Nope, I just do a good help.

For me there only 2 "gods" in 3DMark01 - Macci and RickY
That is my personally opinion - of course there are other very good guys around, but for me only RickY and Macci have their place assured in the Olympus of 3DMark 2001

[ArcTan]

all i can say is wow
looks like 41k will be gone soon as well

i went to trader joes today, i got some australian licorice

just curious but what's the difference?
I'd assume the licorice we have here is the same in the us and elsewhere?

[OPPAINTER]

Oh Ya, 40k down!!
Killer power guys

Fantastic overclocking and benching

Did you guys notify "worm" of the orb? He'll get it fixed up so it can publish.

Excellent Job!!

another new face! maybe we should call you Pedro de la rosa!

Macco/Pedro
I diddnt notice that before now. It seems they both are getting a big boost in CH, and a more moderate one in Lobby.
CH is hardly bandwithdependant AFAIK, so it must be something else than just the bandwidth of the FX. For lobby, the bandwitdth can and most certanly do make a big difference.

To make it very clear to all in here; I am NOT acusing Pedro for cheating. Im just curious by nature, and have to fint out where the boost come from. Also in order to use the tweaks/tricks myself of course

charlie sits in "stunned silence"

....remembers seeing Portugese beer at Trader Joe's, will pick up a 6pk tomorrow to toast you guys

super bock and brahma gold is nice

congrats pedro and ricky!

[saaya]

Is it nessesary to quote the image just to say "Wow!"?

Its a waste of time and effort for me to scroll down, let alone bandwidth.

hes quoting what made him say wow. calm down.

very good guys...
for when 42k??

Forget brahma, it's brasilian. Have a Superbock or Sagres. 100% portuguese...

It would be nice to post this score on the front page.
But,,, we don't have one

Whats up with that,, FUGGER??

Great job amigo's!

[Pedro Rocha]

My good friend and partner in bench |Ricky| have some problem here that not allow him to post since yesterday
I hope this will fixed very quickly

He is on the MSN with me at this moment, and wish to thank you all for the Congratulations in these thread

C'mon my good friend Ricky control your anxiety for just a few more mins, before a admin fix your problem
