Had a little fun on the Bot today
 

Finally got around to uploading my benches from the AMD Phantom LN2 pot runs. Not to bad for a AMD OC noob but I am learning :)

Besides a TWKR this is the very first chip I went for bench results. Now I feel I did pretty crappy as I am still learning about RAM timings and drive strengths, NB freq and all that jaz. These chips really remind me of old school over clocking.

That and I do not feel this is that great of a chip and I feel I could do a lot better.

So another project going on now that I must get done, then this 965BE goes back on the Cascade for some fine tuning.

I saw that. Gave you some props over here.

Hah hah nice. one days worth of submissions almost matches my total :(

Though I must say that because of AMD's poor showing in benchmarking applications, poor OCers like me save some money by not having to hop platforms.......

And nice results.........

Well many believe that benchmarks are intel/nVidia optimized...

Last nVidia product I bought that I was happy with (aside from old ass PCI vid cards) was a nforce4 chipset for my socket 939 :)

It was almost as good as my VIA K8T800 pro chipset :)

That has to be rumor only??? Atleast ATI cards do very well in all the 3d benchmarks.....

actually most of the 3dmarks work better with nvidia cards

No, despite even having having more powerful hardware, ATi gets fux0red

He is about what it breaks down too according to the Bot.

01 Single - Nvidia
01 Multiple - Both
03 Single - Ati
03 Multiple - Ati
05 Single - Both
05 Multiple - Ati
06 Single - Nvidia
06 Multiple - Ati
Vantage Single - Nvidia
Vantage Multiple - Nvidia
Aqua Single - Nvidia
Aqua Multiple - Both

Ati = 7
Nvidia = 8

Pretty much almost equal in my mind with Nvidia just barely in the lead. Of course this will all change with the new generation coming out soon.

Redirect to the 965BE chip :)

This is actually a pretty nice CPU and performs very well. Chew over on XS has been doing a large amount of testing with his and you can see how they hold up with Air Cooling, he is working on Phase right now and pretty much beating me up score wise HAHA :)
