Hey Folks,

I have been a little idle in the overclocking arena. With Showdown LAN and GEFORCE LAN over with, I can now focus back on overclocking. So I went ahead and cruised thru HWBOT, which I think is so cool And now they have the overall ranking feature, it is even better.

While I was crusing the site, I noticed I am currently ranked 120th. I was like.. Damn.. that ain't good I need to start OC'in again.



Since I do a work log for my case mods, I figure I can do something similar for Overclocking So hence, the start of my Project "Assault on Hwbot". Members may get a kick out of this thread, but there maybe a possibility I will be the only one posting and reaading this thread

As with any project, there needs to be a goal and deadline to determine if the project is a success or not.

So for now..I am going to lay these two objectives for this project:

12/31/06 - SuAsDu is ranked 50th or better

2/28/06 - SuAsDu is Ranked 25th or better

So let the OverClockign begin!!!

SAD

Note - I hope to keep this thread fun and enjoyable for all. If this thread starts to get thread crapped, I reserve the right to immdiately stop posting any results, and may request a moderator to lock it.

Sounds pretty cool!!! Can't wait for the results.

I started out in 97th place when the rankings for members began, then moved slowly upward until im now in like 170th or worse, although i think necro had 50th or close to that when his 6600 was new, the points system revovles around "popularity" of hardware, and how much overhead you have on the next score. So in the bases, your E6400 is #1 but since it isnt as popular as the E6600 the score you get is 10points, whereas the 6600 has a 30 point score for top place. The same revolves around the GPU you use.

Good luck to you though glad to see your conquest is interesting

Yup.. its going to be a fun / intresting projects. There is NOWAY I can hit top 50 w/ only one setup. I actually have several differnet setup I can play with Some more popular then other

SAD

You go give those benchmarks hell SuAsDu!

You will break it easily man. Specially with some goodies that are coming your way in the next few months from me.

OK.. sorry for the double post, I just wanted to capture the details on a differnet post

1st Attack Wave

Setup:
CPU: Intel e6600 L630
Mobo: Asus P5B Dlx (vDDR Mod only)
GPU: EVGA 7800GTX (stock)
RAM: Geil PC8000 Plus (2x1GB Fatbody)
PSU: Silverstone 600w Strider
Cooling: Jinu Single Stage Phase

Results:

PCMark05 - 14,442


PiFast - 21.70s


Sandra - 53,173


SuperPi 1mb - 11.469s


SuperPi 32mb - 12m 39.468s


I will be posting this to HWBot shortly.. lets see how much of a bump I get.

SAD

Go for it dude. Good Luck

I'm sure you be successful. It shouldn't take you to long :-)

Good luck, and I hope you do well on attacking HWBot.

I'll be getting my new motherboard early next week, and hopefully my new cooler later this month. Hopefully I'll be dropping some more scores by the end of the month.

OTOH, the nice thing about an unpopular system is how easy it is to lead an unpopular category.

I proudly hold a silver trophy, despite having a poorly configured setup, because there's only two 4600+ results in the SuperPi database.

Hey Folks,

Well.. the CPU benches w/ the e6600 were great. My ranking climbed up almost 30 places!!!

Here is snap shot of the current sig as of 12/8/06



I still have 44 places to go to reach my goal of top 50 by the end of the year.

If all goes well, I should be able to conduct some SLI Runs. The hard part is that these cards are not as popular, so the points gained will be minimal. But some points are better then no points

I have already volt modded my sli, and gave them a good run through on air. So whens I bench this weekend, i expect to put it on water for sure, and if I have time, I might try to take them subzero

Ok.. I will take pictures of my benching setup this weekend

I reckon you'd be able to take all the 7800GTX 256MB records, with your rig.

Seriously.. I think the 7800GTX group will be VERY hard to get top scores. Some of these cards are very good overclockers. I have seen some with GPU and Mem speeds that are just plain incredile. Even with vmods and subzero cooling. I am not sure if I can beat them.

But... we will have fun trying

SAD

Oh yeah, I just had a looked on HWBOT. I expected most of the records to have been done on 7800GTX+A64 single core rigs, but it seems lots of people are still benching them. Good Luck...

I just did a small review on Swiftech's SLI watercooling solution over at HardwareHell.
I'm not sure if it's been posted yet. I've been told someone else want's to check them out.
But I'm not sure who else over there has the equipment to check them out. Maybe Cpt.Planet.
I might be able to get them to you, if you wanted to do a second review. A couple hours of typing
at most. I know you've turned me down before. But theses are pretty cool :-) (I have them on 2 - 7800GTX's)

Slay,

As usual, you are awesome guy. Thank you so much for the offer. I may take you up, but I will have to see. I have been pretty much DangerDen exclusive. I never really looked at any of Swiftech's latest SLI creations.

I will have to take a look online in a bit to see how they look.

SAD

Here's a pic :-)

Air Cooling
Idle – GPU 46 Celsius Memory 47 Celsius
Load – GPU 67 Celsius Memory 62 Celsius

Swiftech Cooling
Idle- GPU 34 Celsius Memory 33 Celsius
Load- GPU 39 Celsius Memory 37 Celsius

I've got a 2nd 7950GX2 heading my way. Quad SLI :-)
I'd love to get my hands on a couple of these"s, if you can help.
Danger Den :: Water Blocks :: Nvidia and ATI GPU and Ram Water Blocks :: Nvidia Video Card Water Blocks :: DD-GX2 Block for NVIDIA 7950-GX2

slay soon as planets done with his w/c revioew i should have those blocks on the next order request.

sad your certainly welcome to abuse a set of swiftech ramcools as in the pic. let me know what stuff you need and ill call up swiftech and see if tthey want a sponsorship.

gabe is very good about such thigns. they hold several WR top 10 spots on #d marks and pcmark with chilled water kits and their swiftech 220+ kit without tecs.
