Testing AMD 955BE

[Buckeye]

Had another package come yesterday so I moved things of the bench to try some new hardware out.

This will be a AMD 955BE up for now while I take a break from the 965BE. Actually learned a few things on this chip that I can apply to the 965BE.

So far this chip is doing very well and getting ready to move on to the Cascade. The ATI 4890 which is my first ATI card is rocking hard, but man when the fans are cranked at 100% its makes a lot of noise.

So 3 different setups runnig on the bench back and forth now.

I swear buckeye one day I will have one. Just waiting on my funds to get right again.

So had a short run on the Cascade today.

Jacked up the Multi a bit and RAM still nice and tight, everything ran great.

Going to have to cool down the GPU a bit with some LN2 I think as it seems max'd out.

Gah what a crappy day :Dizzy:

Had the ATI card all prepped up and it crapped out on me, not sure why but prolly a crappy prep job :(

Swapped in a 260gtx and could not get a 3DMark06 run to complete.

So by now its been a few hours and this is teh best I could do, oh well try again another day...

Damn Bucky, 6.3ghz is pretty damn spiffy man. How much more juice you figure she's got left in her. Did you fire off the 3d06 run @ 6ghz+gtx260?
2.9 points for that cpu-z shot homie.

No 3DMark06 runs, just could not get things rolling today for that :(

I think its got at least 6.5ghz in it. After I tear it all down and get it resetup I will make another try for that and the rest of the CPU benches.

I did a SuperPi 1M run and it was just way off so I said screw it and went for the CPUz instead.

Hey Bucky.
I don't think a 6.3 GHz screen shot and the phrase "crappy day" belong in the same post. I would be dancing in the street, probably hit by a car, then when able I'd come back and post about my crappy day.:Dizzy:
Nice goin', Dude.:thumbsup:
Always lookin' forward to your posts.:clapping:
