Not sure if it's a valid run. As mentioned in the discussion, GPU-Z only shows 2 GPU's where it should show 4. Maybe because I used Xp? The drop down box did however show 4 lines.

Max I could get with one card was 108k so Xp must use the second card otherwise I should be lower than 108k, not?

You can't use 4 cores in XP, it only uses 2.
Looks like they already moved it.

It sounded too good to be true. But I still find it strange that I can manage a higher score with 2 cards in the system than with only one. The difference is almost 2000 points that's a lot to just be random.

Will test the dual HD3870X2 under Win 7 today. Hope it give at least some points. Getting these cards beyond 891MHz core is a nono.

Still some nice scores with dual HD3870X2 under Win7.
Result: back in 3rd spot in Belgium OC league

Also did some testing with my new MSI GTX 660 Ti. This one will replace the HD6950 in my game machine, but first some benching.
Note too many entries with this one so not a lot of points, but upping the cup/medal count :-)

A new benching day has begun. Started of by having a heart attack.
When powering up this morning, the PSU would constantly restart.
Dismanteled everything and discovered a lot of moisture on the back of the mobo. Apparently the 2 layers of Armaflex weren't enough.

After having dried of everything did a quick test and luckily the system switched on again. To avoid further moistere build up I pasted the backside of the board with vaseline and then put everything back on the Armaflex pads.

- half a day wasted
+ no broken setup

+ New achievement: 100 cups and medals!!!
+ Position 52 in HW ranking is in sight!!!

Finally some garage time again. Not that many points mainly due to the crappy 6950 I got. 900 core is the max. it'll run stable. This one is a dud.
On the plus side, improved my HD6850 AM3 score to 5th place

Teemto · 10th November 2012, 16:33

Benched my 'new' work laptop: HP Elitebook 8540W.
Total of 11,4 points; 2 Gold/ 4 Silver / 2 Medals

Just in time for saturday's Madshrimps bench session @ Tones Mechelen!

Don't think I'm gonna compete in this one.
Just some S775 cpu's here.

GTX580 Lightning Extreme just arrived, more fun

Day off freezing in the garage

Nice Bclk 113.2 score for the Country Cup 2012 + medal.

The new 3770K is definately better than the old one under cascade:
5.9GHz 4c8t Wprime32M (+200MHz)
5.9GHz 4c4t 3DM06
6GHz 2c2t 3DM01SE, 3DM03 and 3DM05
6.1GHz 2c2t Pifast and SuperPi

Still need to improve GTX680 Unigine DX9, DX11 and 3DM11P scores as they still suck for some reason.
