verT my friend welcome to PCStats! <BR><BR>Awesome score... <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0"><BR><BR><a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=5389606">Here</a> is something for you to aim for. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> That's very achievable wtih your system!

[verT]

yeah it's all about the tweaks eh <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> I know there are some optimizations I need to do. I've OC'd the mother board / CPU / Vid to the top speed I can get. I just need to do some OS optimizations to really run with it.

[Colin]

verT the tweak guides I wrote were for Win98/WinXP but the XP tweaks still work with 2k.<BR><BR>P4's usually perform best when paired with WindowsXP so if it's possible you should try and run that OS.

Damn nice 14K with a Ti4200 verT. What <i>are</i> your complete system specs and what OC are you running?<BR><a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=6805856">15342</a> was the best I could do with my Ti4200 Turbo. Colin had one awesome overclocking Ti4200 for that one (Albatron if I remember correctly). 305/661 was the highest I could go with mine.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> <BR><BR>Oh yeah, welcome to PCStats too!!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

[verT]

hmm full system specs eh?<BR><BR>P4 2.4 @ 3.114 (173 FSB I think)<BR>Albatron PX845PEV Pro<BR>Albatron GF 4 Ti4200P Turbo 315/715<BR>512 MB of OCZ PC3500EL<BR>WD 800JB<BR>Some crappy CDRW (Does the job LG 12X8X32 I think)<BR>Lian Li PC69<BR>Enermax 350W <BR>Water cooled with 2 BIX Maze 3 and a GF4 DD block

[Colin]

verT can your Ti4200 handle an 88 MHz AGP speed? If so raise the AGP as well (didn't mention that in the articles) as it should improve performance slightly... <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> Haha, even 10-15 points is better then nothing. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"><BR><BR>If you're interested in the TI4200 volt mod let me know and I'll send you some links. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

[TranceJunkieXL]

<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif" border="0">Even I didn't get that tip when I was trying. LOL! Well, I did run mine at 80MHz. Is 88 the top those can handle or something?<BR>

[Colin]

Bah 88 MHz is nothing! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> On my old KR7A-RAID I did 210 MHz FSB with my old GeForce3 Ti500... That's like a 105 MHz AGP! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

[Colin]

Haha, well hopefully you can now bust out some awesome Ti4200 scores verT! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"><BR><BR>Hmm, I still got my Albatron Ti4200P Turbo laying around... Wanna race? <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

[TranceJunkieXL]

LMAO! Air against a Prometeia? LOL! Yeah right.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

[verT]

hmmmm Prometia/dual channel vs WC and single channel..... Might be interesting to see what the differences would be and also to see how bad my ass would be kicked <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

[TranceJunkieXL]

So why are you running your OCZ PC3500 at only 173 FSB? You'd probably score much higher with that thing cranked to the 216-217 its rated for.<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

[Colin]

haha... Hey all is fair in love and war right? <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"><BR><BR>verT I have faith in you man, hopefully we'll be able to get you to at least 16k!<BR><BR>rithemking verT is on a 2.4B not C chip... He's probably got the 3/4 or 4/5 divider enabled. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

[verT]

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=6907527 15K baby <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"><BR><BR>Yeah got the divider/multiplier thingy going on running RAM is running at the rates speeds Just found out though the timings are a littel high than what I remember setting them at (I know it was you colin)

[verT]

<a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://service.futuremark.com/compare?2k1=6907575">Squeaked out a bit more</a>

[Colin]

VERY NICE verT!!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0"><BR><BR>15k from a Ti4200 is totally awesome.<BR><BR>I haven't benchmarked the Ti4200 in a while but I found that the 40.52's were faster then the 40.41's. How are the latest WHQL drivers? They give a nice boost to the FX series cards...

[verT]

Well to be honest I have no idea I haven't updated my drivers in I don't know how long. All that improvement is purely hardware tweaking no software was harmed in the process. I'm hoping to get to the software aspects of it this weekend.

[Colin]

Well hopefully we can work together to get you to 16k! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

[verT]

Well only 750 to 16K and only 900 to beat that score of yours <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> Are the benchmarking gawds with me.... only time will tell....

[TranceJunkieXL]

LMAO! Yeah, give Colin a run for his money verT!<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"><img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0"><img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0"><img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0"> <BR>Make him pull his Albatron Ti4200 out of the closet again!<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
