Made another vid - This SuperPI 8M is in RealTime...maybe easier for some to comprehend what we are doing. I need to try that livestream sometime.

rickss69 09-19-2010 02:50 PM

Go back to your earlier settings. The key for the 920 is going to lie mostly in cpu-tweaker. :good:

Well I did give out all my settings....:taunt:

RomDominance 09-19-2010 04:04 PM

Little less than a hour to go,..I figure you can each run 8m twenty eight more times before time runs out!
Time to drop bombs gents!

rickss69 09-19-2010 05:22 PM

That was awsome guys! I have a deviously funny story to tell about that last screen shot. :rofl I just knew Goat was going to sink me at the last moment...:ohcrap:

FACE 09-19-2010 05:23 PM

Congrats, Rick! :Hi:

69_Goat 09-19-2010 05:24 PM

Congrats Rick ! :clapping:

You were quite the rabbit to chase.

Nice work on the vids as well. :good:

Dentlord 09-19-2010 05:25 PM

'gratz Rick!!

This was one epic contest, fun watching you guys battle it out :D

Goat - I feel kinda bad but not really lol...go look at the last submission's cpu-tweaker tab. I punched in some bogus values for you to chase....:rofl

Sorry, here is the original screen...:blush: I must have a little Romulan in me. :D

thebanik 09-19-2010 05:37 PM

Now this is the outcome of the contest for me, can some1 tell me whether I am missing something else or not.

Step by Step

George XP/Rick's XP
Mem/Uncore as high as possible
Cut down on Services(Diagnostic Mode was bad for me)
MaxMem/LSC/RegTweaks/Pagefile on SSD gave me best timings
Defrag HDD/SSD
CPU Tweaker for subtimings
Run Superpi-Affinity, Realtime, Explorer Low-2/3 16k till best time then keep 8m in wait (have to test but I guess putting superpi on Ram Disk might be beneficial)
CDT tried both Manual and OCX - Manual was better for CopyWaza but for CDT OCX was better
While CDT finishing cycle theme
Start Superpi

Anything else?

Diagnostic mode for me. Tbh, the greatest gains for me came from cpu-tweaker. Other than that last screen lol, all I posted and the videos pretty much sums up my routine. :good:

DOM 09-19-2010 05:47 PM

on my spi i used IV cuz CDT wasnt working also, but i think mine degreaded or something at first it was running 2045mhz but for the last runs i was like running 1 that would finish out of 20 lock ups

rickss69 09-19-2010 05:50 PM

The video I made today was a 8M run I made RealTime. I was blown away by Banik's mem freq's to be sure. :eek:

thebanik 09-19-2010 05:58 PM

apart from that strap
everything else was crap
look look it does rap
but just like me its a drab
:laughing::laughing:

rickss69 09-19-2010 05:58 PM

I was most impressed by H&R's 920 run. I got close but never could get past him with my 920.

I think everyone here won something from this contest...we now know SPI! :good: Many thanks for everyone's help and the great bunch of mentors we have on hand for giving us this opportunity. :thumbsup:

kikicoco1334 09-19-2010 06:02 PM

go rick!

PS. omg! can someone take me off this stupid 90s per post thing:Hi:

rickss69 09-19-2010 06:15 PM

Banik - Can you try mine or Goat's settings? You should be right in the ballpark with our times.
