3dmark 06 1st try Overclcok
 

Thats one of my 1st tries to overlock in 3dmark 06. Here is is my results ;)
What do you think ?

Looking good Spank! Just keep pushing it harder. :)

Looks nice, what cooling you using?
Looks like you can get more out of both cpu and gpu ;)

Im using the Thermalright TRUE Black 120 with push & pull fans :)

Pretty stellar for the clocks, what kinda tweaking did you do?

Workin it out bro ............ :thumbsup:

Quick run on my 24/7 rig:
23528marks
sm20:8404 (bottlenecked by cpu)
sm30:11449 (bottlenecked by cpu)
980x@3471
gtx470@802/1000
Win7 32bit
Nvidia 258.96 drivers
Attachment 4960

Im using there settings for now and its stable so far for daily use

Multiplier x32
Fsb 134
CPU Voltage 1.375
QPI/DRAM Core Voltage : 1.60

Ram speed : 1880mhz (i have corsair dominator gt 3x2gb)
DRAM Timing Control :8-8-8-24 2t
DRAM Bus Voltage : 1.65


Everything else is on auto.

As for temperatures according core temp on idle im at 43.42.40,39c per core and at full load 3dmark unigine 2.5 and crysis 2 70 71c

Update : its 61c on crysis 2

You should be able to coax a little better score with your current cpu clock speed and a slight gpu clockspeed increase. Based off my card here, it'll run 820 core @ between 1040mv and 1087mv with the memory running at 1050. Temps ramp up to about 75c on the flying dragon on air. You won't need much more clocks beyond that until you increase your cpu speed again. Looks like its up against the cpu bottleneck again right here at 820/1050 @ 4.2ghz:

Doesnt get much better at 850/1025: (around 80c load temps give or take)(ran at 1087mv)

hey man xp will give you cpu score a huge boost and therefore increase overall score :) lookin good though keep it up

turn off physx and you get a lil boots also

are you setting it to performance on the nvidia driver settings ?

Hmm im not sure about that i will check as soon as i go home :)
thanks for the tip

Update : it seems that at 1866 and 8-8-8-24 2t cant get it strable (blue screen of death appeared) so i had to lower the frequency at 1566 or something,i dont remember exactly.
i have to work on this frequency close at 2000 to reach stable if its possible

I have set it to performace now but how do i disable the psysx ?

nice work man lookin great there!

nvidia control panel ;)

Good clocking man. Just a little advise don't cover up the 3dmark windows and make sure to included the details from the test. :thumbsup:

Nice work Spank.... Play with the nV CP ....

I do better on milti screen display for some reason with this POS, nV call a driver

wish 182.5 or 196 would run this card .... :shock:

LOL .... I don't even own this software ...... :laughing:

I am sucking bad with this bench and the 580 ..... thinking I should be able to do 39K with clocks ???

I typically do better w/ physics on in this bench though, I will go with out once and see, This driver is new to me

Give it HELL witchy :)

3DMark 06 benefits hugely with cores and CPU clocks witchy....havent compared on hwbot, do check if its the CPU clocks which is stopping you.....

I'll check it out ....

I have some more CPU in the tank I believe ........... :thumbsup:

was hoping for 1000 core from the 580 ... but it is a stretch on stock cooling ... :ohcrap:
