You have 18 days to enlighten me.

Sounds like there's an "or else" in there somewhere.

Pfewwwf for a minute there I thought you were gonna send the kick boxer after me.

I'll post something up in the lounge, this is a good one to keep in the team.

 

[Mandrake4565]

LOL, she has that Irish temper better watch out.

Good point. Any ol cheap SSD would work.
Even our favorite V300

for benching even a 64gb ssd works, look for the best price on a used one. I have a 120gb in 2 partitins with windows installed on both partitions plus drivers and benches.

I'm nearing a breaking point trying to get GPUPi installed. Please offer some assistance here. TIA!

Silver_Pharaoh / FX 6300 / 6 Cores / SuperPi / 18m 07s 345ms

Not sure how you get the "score" Maybe I missed it somewhere??

You using the bulldozer conditioner, S/P?

I ran the x64 version, hit Fix errata, and switch NRAC blocking to disabled. Hit apply twice and closed it.
Unless I'm to leave it running in the background?

Also noticed a beta BIOS for this giga board.... Wonder if it'll help with "errata"

 

[Mandrake4565]

X64 Windows 7? If so that's your issue, SuperPi will be significantly quicker on XP 32.

Yeah, my daily driver OS.

I'll see if I can rig up XP on a seperate drive this weekend

Xp will be much better!

 

[Blaylock]

hmmm, from our GPUPi tweaks thread it seams Win7-64 is the way to go. NO?

Ignore the man behind the curtain, he's been drinking tonight! LOL

 

[dejo]

server2003 is also pretty good for superpi. out of the box its faster than xp, but you can tweak xp a bit more

I would update to the beta BIOS... Gigabyte boards work better with a new BIOS ( BETA or Official ), but they can be unstable when pushed to hard I have the Gigabyte GA-790FXT(A)-UD5 and when I was using the last BETA BIOS release for the board, I could get some strange settings. During OCing the board would lockup, I would reboot and go back into the BIOS. The BIOS reported that MY X6 1100T had successfully booted into the BIOS @ 25GHz and some other extremely high NB/SB. I took a quick PIC with my Ipod but I still doubt that anyone would believe me

Not sure if we are allowed to post SuperPi scores with CPU cores disabled????
You will get an outstanding run ( for HWBot submitting ) if you can drop your 6300 to 2 cores and OC as high as you can get on the CPU and NB. SuperPi also likes Tight Ram Timings instead of Pure Bandwidth, this might be an AMD thing only????

 

[Johan45]

Yep core disabling is fine Maddmutt

Still debating weather to flash latest BIOS or not...
I've also been wondering if it's better to have tighter timings or tight and fast RAM for Spi. Guess I know now
Thanks for the tips mutt!
