Gamers' Blog #8 - Sapphire Radeon HD 5770

Posted 4 Weeks Ago at 11:33 AM by gamer11200

Yes everyone I finally got my Sapphire Radeon HD 5770. So far I am really loving the card

So far I have run some benchies and noticed some nifty performance increases, especially in Resident Evil 5. Check out the Excel file that is attached for all.

Note: I was not able to test Distributed Computing Applications (namely BOINC's Collatz Conjecture project) because apparently the drivers are not supported.

I really love the fact that this card can handle...

Gamers' Blog #7 - World Community Grid update (Oct 15, 2009)

Posted 10-15-09 at 12:13 AM by gamer11200

Hello my fellow overclockers. Been a while since I've done a blog, so might as well post one up! If you haven't been aware yet, I contribute my idle computer time to a project called World Community Grid (a distributed computing project by IBM that runs using BOINC; a similar concept to folding@Home).

Attached are my current stats.

I have the following goals set for the remainder of the year:
-End of October: Be in the top 45,000 in points generated
-End...

Even if you didn't know what it is or what what did, you must of come across the name "Folding@Home" or acronyms like "F@H" or "ppd" some time or another.

Gamers' Blog #4 - The Benchmarks

Posted 03-15-09 at 07:23 PM by gamer11200

Well I never got to posting the benchmarks when I wanted to, but here they are finally! I am truly impressed at the raw amount of processing power increase that the Q8200 offered. Since I was coming from a P4 that was 3.24GHZ and hyperthreading to a Q8200 with 4 core @2.33GHZ, I wasn't expecting performance increases of > 4x in some applications, but here we are! As well, ATI proved to me that you don't need a power hungry GPU to process graphics, look at the 4670! Although it is not said in...
