udm .. try and run the PCMark 04 /05 as this is where the dual's come into play .... there is also another bench tool for the Dual cores .. I will find it again and maybe run athread for those who are interested..

umd man

I'll get the pcmark later on today but I dont have dual core..yet, wait till January.

Looking at your comp, I think it may just be upto the task *eye roll-age*

Taken from the benchmark thread...

DaGuv the GeForce 7800GTX 512MB models are afraid of the cold (as are all GeForce 6 and 7 series cards) and there is no modded BIOS out for it yet. When I see one, I'll point it your way but with the card's thermal protection disabled, TEC'ing the videocard will slow it down because it thinks it's overheating.

Still I lok forward to the challenge! I've already flashed my 7800GTX's with the custom firmware that disables the videocard cold bug and am waiting on a SLI phase change cooler. If I don't get it soon I might go water just for the mean time.

Dont. you will be in for hell with that AN8, get some Mushkin High Performance PC4400 instead

Arrrr... the tec is meant for my cpu, as I am seriously held back by my CPU only being able to hit 3.0Ghz. Although I have had a message about a r507 MachIIGT this afternoon, so fingers crossed . The 512s are destined for w/c as i don't have the patience for tec'ing my gfx cards lol. And I'll have some GeIL One BH-5 next week, so the lower timings will help my scores too

wowza

wow your computer is good (get's my vote for #1), i think for your next project, you should make a chiller box or something like that

Oh sorry I thought I saw somewhere else that you said you're getting a Prommy. Go with the Prometeia dude, it's so much better than TEC, you won't regret going phase! Low latency memory definitely makes a huge difference in benchmarks and that's why I stick with that only.
Thanks bud. Heh don't tell my wife how much I spend on this hobby. Nah I'm done with chillers too messy to setup. I dont' have the skill to go it alone but with the help of my friend we're suppose to build a single stage SLI cooler, too bad he's been very busy the last half year. Hopefully that will be completed sometime early in the new year, if not I'll just go with plain water (and maybe TECs if I feel adventurous).

grrrrrr. I can beat all of your 3DMark Scores but I just can't get my AM3 score over 108,550... I think we should change the thread into a 3DMark only contest lol.

Its really starting to make me go insane... why is my AM3 score so low I've tried everything. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggh hhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Haha... Well don't get your hopes up too high yet, did a bit of overclocking last night and broke 40k in 3DMark2001, 33k in 3DMark03 (you beat me there) and 16K in 3DMark05. Won't upload those scores till the wknd, I think I can squeze more out of my cards! Still once you get your water on the videocards, you should have no problems retaking #1 spot since the 512MB cards are simply faster. I was considering getting the 512MB cards but finding some in Canada is virtually impossible. Oh well I'm happy with my two XFX GeForce 7800GTX's!

As for your AM3 score, as per your other thread, I think it's your memory latencies, did you try using lower timings?
