Haven't posted on here in forever, but had to add my 2 cents to this one. The last review of the 390X and Fury cards on here had a clear agenda, and went well overboard on the hate.
It very much felt like Brent went into the reviews with a major hair across his ass about AMD before he even...
Yes, that video was lame, I was expecting some badass intricate Melody with tons of guitars.
Instead I got a bunch of crap laying on the floor being rubbed by spinning paper tuned to open.
I can make the same noise at my house if i turn my amp up and stand in front of it to get feedback. :)
His 'bot' looks like a macro program clicking on specific positions on the screen over and over in a loop with a couple scroll downs thrown in for good measure.
I don't know if I would say that qualifies him as a 'programmer' :)
Is the preferred deadline different then the normal one?
What would be the best way for me to troubleshoot it, just up it to -smp 7 and see if it comes out of it?
TPF Column is the time-frame? :)
00:04:36 for an A3 P6050 Job
Its banging them out fairly fast now, just not giving me the credit HFM says each one is worth.
Yea I've tweaked the settings last weekend.
I am using a passkey
I am folding with a 4890, which killed a core, and my smp folding at first, but that showed the low ppd in the HFM client also. I followed the guide and fixed the ati cpu usuage, that improved my smp ppd from like 300 to...
Anyone else seen this?
The HFM client is reporting that my i7 should be putting out 10k PPD, but from looking at my stats its only putting out mabey 1500 PPD on top of my gpu client.
Just wondering if I have something setup wrong.
huh, and here i was thinking how fast and clean the new ati control center was compared to nvidia's mess and the hell i went through getting sli to even work under vista with my 6800's
:)
60k+ ppd is sick
you will see lots of people on the threat meter when your neighbor notices his meter spinning like a turbine and unplugs your extension cord :D
my 4850 overclocked to 800/2200 pushes out 2600-2650 PPD on the 5734 projects
normally pulls 3300-3400 on the other one.
around 74c with ac5 on the stock single slot cooler.
Kyle, did you test a 4850 1gb?
The article says the 1gb 4870 was faster then the 512 version but i did not notice any mention of a 1gb 4850.
I ask because I own one, and bought it for 192 dollars. could possibly be a better option then the gtx 260 for the price/performance crown...
yea i had problems with the smp client, so i reverted back to multiple instances of the normal client, but from seeing the numbers everyone else is putting up i dont think its gonna matter what clients i run :D
and your saying you are an accurate source of information? :D
im not saying your not, but a little 3rd party info backing up these claims of knowing that their launching with B1 would help me to belive you.
Seeing as an editor at anantech which is notorious for breaking nda's wont even...
umm, it says BA is the launch stepping, aka not B1
http://wwww.vr-zone.com/articles/BA-Step_Barcelona_For_Launch_In_Sept/5196.html
and i still dont see anyone anywhere listing B1 as anything other then a testing stepping that was released to a few platform partners, let me know if you find...
Do you have a link to a source that confirms the launch stepping is B1?
I can't seem to find it in a quick google, olny other result i found was this..
Which says B1 was a compatbility testing version, then B2 was bug free, and BA is mass production...
Also note that Gary said B1 was from...
If you follow the link i posted both Gary Key from andantech, and the author of cpu-z mention in their posts the current stepping of barcalona is B2, and anything before that could have the HT and cache problem.
So in other words, its still up in the air if that benchmark is anywheres close to...
according to this the super pi results may be all but worthless
if that was run on a chip with HT disabled, and possibly the secondary cache disabled then the scores are going to be horribly degraded.

I think you are only partially right about the core2 communications between the cores.
Since they share the l2 cache, information that is in the cache can be accessed by either core, and is fast.
But i belive there is still information that ends up going across the fsb (not enuff room in...
"The reference motherboard containing RD790"
anyone know if its possible this motherboard/chipset could have some optimizations that would bump up the 3dmark score? on-board video working in crossfire to do additional video/physix work or something?
from the Inq so take with a grain of salt :)
but the other things of interest is the claim that all the usual sites have review parts already
