    You gonna change your sig until the rig's at maximum performance then? :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,067 ✭✭✭L31mr0d


    I think his sig is actually jinxing him ;) counting your eggs before they've hatched and all that. :rolleyes:

    Seriously though, sounds like the usual build, all things considered its not too bad. How long burn in are you going to give it before you start throttling your clocks?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 540 ✭✭✭RazielDoomgate


    yeay.. i got mine too today ... it was a nice way to wake up to :D but when i tryed to install windows it crashed.. then i noticed how badly the cd was cratched :( going to pick up a friends cd soon.... ill have working and overclocked by friday.... at least my pc lights up blue again.. and sounds like a tornado cause of the gpu


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti


    Congrats on getting it up and running. let us know how it gets on while overclocked :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin

    Thank god you finally got the E6600. Let us know how you get on with overclocking it. By the way, there is a few on here starting to recieve their E6600.. just wondering where did ye order from.
    I think you got yours from Overclockers, pog, but did anyone recieve their cpu from Komplett yet?

    I am just after recieving my hard drive, dvd burner, memory and psu today from Komplett, with a x1900xt and Abit mobo on the way from Overclockers, hopefully arriving near the end of the week. All i have left now is to order the cpu and a case.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti


    i dont mean to piss on your parade pog, but i just showed a mate of mine the link to your 3dmark 05 score. and he gave me the link to his comparision. i would consider his base system worse then yours. but hes only 160 points behind you. using a single core cpu. have a look


    http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm05=1987297

    Why is this ?

    he has not overclocked at all


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin


    He's got a 512mb gpu, i only got 256. Gpu score makes up bout 95% of 3dmark total score. Look again, i demolish his cpu score. I checked & i'm on par with others of the same specs. finished buildin, gonna start to oc after i get some sleep.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti


    so my 1gb should be good then, i never really likes 3dmarks tbh. not really real world. still when you oc im sure you will decimate him :)


  • Subscribers Posts: 6,408 ✭✭✭conzy


    I was just looking on Anandtech and the E6400 overclocked to 2.88ghz is amazing! It even beats the X6800 in some rendering tests:)

    Im thinking of going Conroe now because I wanted to get another gig of ram and a X2 3800, but if im going to I might as well go for conroe..

    I got my e6600 from komplett last tuesday. Working away from home this week, so I have only had a few hours to play with the computer :)

    I thought kompletts first stock was due in on 21st aug?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti


    he must have been one of the early buyers. as they did have a small quantity in that sold out in mins.

    It's not a 1 Gig card though, each gpu can only use 512megs. It doesn't add up like that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin


    Wow. At 320fsb (from 266fsb stock) & still @ stock voltages. :D Totally stable. Ran dual core prime 95 (20 mins) Sisoft Sandra burn in test & 3dmark06. Cant get this thing 2 show errors. Amazing chip to clock.
    Ah well, back to work. :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 862 ✭✭✭Psycopat


    leave prime 95 runnin longer than 20 mins tbh....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti

    i got one and it demolishes sli enabled games, 60 fps on quake 4 and prey going down to 50 in only a few points both at full settings, gets a nice score in 3dmark 06 too <3 the card 560 euro for 2 slightly underclocked 7900GTX still only using 1 pci-e slot


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti


    yeah thats what attracted me to them, hopefully in a few weeks i can afford another card and a better motherboard. but i might hang on for getting them both untill xmas maybe


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin


    Its the dual core prime 95 i ran for 20mins. runs prime 95 twice, 1 on each core. Gets much higher temps than prime 95. 4/5' hotter and 100% cpu usage. Just ran it again for 40 mins (3 complete runs) & no errors. temp max is at 53' under load. 32 idle. i'll push some more now.

    you should wait there aint many games around supporting quad sli atm, i believe battlefield 2140 will

    @ PogMoThoin thats an amazing chip and its so cheap too, what HSF you using?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti


    Looks like you got a good E6600, alot of ppl have got stuck at much lower freq's then you. congrats once again.

    Now stop making me jelous :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,874 ✭✭✭✭PogMoThoin


    Zalman CNPS9500 cooler. Temps maxin at 50' full load. Didn't get to fully test 355fsb (yawn, up all nite). have a feeling it needs more power. Gonna test again now & meke sure i'm completely stable before i go any further.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,401 ✭✭✭✭Anti


    ahh feck stable, we want to see 4ghz by the end of today. so chop chop !

    improvin on super-pi scores:
    355fsbyh3.th.jpg
    355fsb32meb8.th.jpg

    Didn't pass 3.2 Ghz yet but confident its stable. Had to up volts a fair bit to get stable. Temps maxin at 54' under load (33-34' idle), so i dunno how much further i can go. gonna have to take side off case to push further.

    Mine runs quite hot, but it's on stock. It'll be a few weeks before I get my XP 120 onto it. Actually, I must bring my rig up to dublin at the weekend, so I'll get to mess with it during the week.
