IN You forgot to mention a few things on the to do list which I probably shouldn't mention here either, but it's probably good for the team spirit

Depends on what I'm doing, but for now I'm doing fine at 8000 CL32 on the Z790 APEX with a 13900KS. Some guys are benching 9000mhz on air, not sure about the timings etc but there are some crazy results out there. They are in a voltage range on some settings where I prefer to stay away from, if you want your hardware to last a little longer than a month or two Good luck breaking your legs.. I've got enough fun with getting two sticks to work properly

You have no idea how much I love reading your rants about things like this, as I can relate. I just hate any software where they invested more time into making it look good rather than making it work properly. Give me software like the ASUS APEX Tool or HOF_NVVDD, not some useless fancy looking AMD or iQue software Heck, I wouldn't mind if my windows looked like XP and would be as lightweight with just the options I need for it to function. No, instead I'm spending hours on stripping an installation for it to not use loads of memory right after installation with all the crap they force down our throats.. (opened it on the main for Screeny) /rant Have fun with the 6900XT @Mr. Fox, I'm still waiting for them to become real cheap and have some fun on cold water maybe

I know what you mean, but if I would keep those settings and run Port Royal next it'll crash while collecting the system info. You could say that the driver isn't really optimized for those less demanding tasks, where it could actually boost higher and possibly keep those clocks a bit longer instead of downclocking in between. Precision X1 has the nice 'boost lock' function, but if I use X1 with the current bios on my card it'll try to 'update' the firmware. Like I said before, it is a fun benchmark to try in between but I would never use this to compare cards myself.

So I ran GB6 on the air cooled 3090 FTW3 with the following result: EVGA Corp. Z690 DARK KINGPIN - Geekbench Browser BROWSER.GEEKBENCH.COM Benchmark results for an EVGA Corp. Z690 DARK KINGPIN with an Intel Core i3-12300 processor. As fun as this may be, I think that this is another benchmark where you can use unrealistic clocks (same as GPUPI). I was running the core at 2280-2295mhz though the actual clocks under decent load from a 3D benchmark are between 2160 and 2200mhz. The same goes for the memory, it was scaling all the way up to +900mhz where I usually sit around +750 for an artifact free image. @J7SC_Orion Regarding the heater, I'm really curious how much difference it would make on water. It'll also dump extra heat into the water, which will have a negative effect on the core temperature. For anything colder on the core itself a heater like that is really useful, and probably needed to compete

We've been talking about that temperature subject on the memory chips. The problem is that you want to cool the VRM and core but want to run the memory at a stable ~55°C to get the most out of it. My blocks are either full cover or core only, so it's always a compromise trying to get the best performance.

I'm sorry brother, but I really can't get hardware online here. Trying to keep the power draw as low as possible

That's not the problem, the problem is needing internet for viewing the result. I don't want internet on my benchmark OS

I paid $18,14 for GB5. I bought it in April 2022, 3 years after release and I have no clue what it was when it was released (minus the 50% release sale discount). $99 is just insane and too much for just a few seconds benchmark.

With the 3070Ti in my main system. I don't feel like running this on the bench OS though, as long as I need to pay 99$ for an offline version.. So for now it's limited to the two dirty drives that are not stripped. ASUS System Product Name - Geekbench Browser BROWSER.GEEKBENCH.COM Benchmark results for an ASUS System Product Name with an Intel Core i9-12900KF processor.

Nice work @Mr. Fox Now that I have a cascade I might just revisit some of those

A busy evening of testing for the G.Skill competition, not that I stand a chance against the top guys but I like to do my best Still a lot of tuning/headroom but I decided to run a few benchmarks with the current settings to see how they compare later down the road.

Love you all, thanks for the birthday wishes! Now that you mention it, he might have more disturbing content if he actually recorded the stream This is pure gold! Haha yeah, I love that song!

Makes it tollerable One should not eat this daily, but for a Sunday afternoon it's a nice meal. all the nutrients

I know I know, but it was inevitable... I'll get you the full specs sheet as soon as I have every last detail, but it is -100°C capable. Thanks Jan There is insulation around the base, and the board needs a good layer of protection. Depending on the level of #aintcare you can use different kind of products. "lube that tube" Dirty old man 'Something' I guess

Fingers crossed Fox, I sure hope you'll have more luck with the ASUS. And congrats with the new card, I'm jealous they are that 'cheap' over there. Over here I would pay about €2350 for one, that's $2480

I guess I had more luck with Asus, but I just said that with my fingers crossed Also, a quick run with a single 1080Ti on the Apex Z790. For some reason the Physics test dropped 2k after the first 2 runs, but I didn't have time to do it all over again. /img/logo.png Bastiaan_NL`s 3DMark - Fire Strike score: 31644 marks with a GeForce GTX 1080 Ti HWBOT.ORG The GeForce GTX 1080 Ti @ 2088/1501MHzscores getScoreFormatted in the 3DMark - Fire Strike benchmark.

Well, that's messed up... Time for a Strix?

Yeah, when you are able to beat a lot of LN2 results just with a few tweaks here and there.. I'm not complaining though, worth a lot of points and I bet many of those guys don't have the hardware anymore

That's a huge difference!

So I did some testing. [Edit] I was having some problems with getting the overclock to work properly, so don't look too closely at the Physics score. Limited on time, so will probably figure that out later. 5 P-cores with HT and 3 without plus 16 E-cores = 29 threads: 8 P-cores with HT plus 16 E-cores = 29 threads: 8 P-cores with HT plus 16 E-cores + no E-cores in GT1 and a little bump in GPU clocks (third place in hardware class):

That's an interesting idea, but I'm afraid it hurts the Physics test more than it'll benefit the Combined test. I'm pretty sure there is a thing called HT per core but I need to check the bios for that.
