x1950Pro? Your scores should be a lot higher if I got 9100 with CF 1800s w/CPU @ 2.6GHz. I just remembered that I was unable to OC the 1800s in CF, so you should q0wn me.

 

Have to remeber that this is only 256Mb card, also my CPU maxes @ 2.4Ghz. If I remeber correctly I was in the 4800s stock speeds, so if I can not OC the cards in CF mode then I dought I will trump 9000

Yea, I did forget the card was a 256MB. My last card < 512MB was 4 upgrades ago. What the new standard 640MB or 768MB?

1Gig :guns1:

Can someone give me a game that need to have 1GB of textures loaded? Even Doom3 and Quake4 on ultra setting do not fill 512Mb at the moment, DX10 cards will have to be 1GB though just so M$ can fill the mem on the card with desktop effects (like 3D exploding start menus and 100 sided dice desktops.)

New games never need/require the highest end card. Doom3 and Quake4 are old now....

...and? I bet games bench lower on those cards then on a x1950XTX! Doom3 and Quake4 is what pushed cards to 512Mb was the point.

Find me a utility that shows how much VRAM Im using.

That make total sense, to take advantage of Dual and Quad core CPUs games will need to be broken down into sperate proccesses

I ended up lapping both my Q6600 and my Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme tonight... yeah I'm tired... It took me about 3.5 hours total and I went through 220, 400, 800, 1000, 1500 grits on both of them. It was crazy how warped my heatsink was and my Q6600 was a mountain range with a surrounding moat...

 

Running at 3.0 ghz Before Lapping:

I'm now running Prime95 at 3.1ghz for as long as I can or 24 hours, which ever comes 1st. Memtest went fine for 30 min then I cut it off. I'll test w/ memtest again when I hit a wall on the ghz.
