    Tried Quake3 and it did not make any difference at all. The FPS were what i would expect with the Single 4200 - needless to say the SD 3700 is still faster - at 2.7 There are switches which allow SMP, turns out they make the game slower.:( So. Games not ready for dual cores yet.

    I have a couple of 4400's and yes using maxtreme, speeds up modelling windows. As for rendering time, its quite similar to a dual opteron speed up - around 60 to 70% compared to single. As for Q3 Score's i will have to change to the 7800GTX, since on the quadro, i don't expect any phenomenol...

    X2 to me and same to you.

    I find gaming speeds are directly proportional to clock speed- graphic card remaining constant- My SD and Venice run at 2.7 and games don't use Dual core's hence the Venice and SD are faster and cheaper. The SD till now is about 5 % faster then the venice at same clock speeds in Quake3 and...

    GF- The Sandy and the Venice still rule the gaming scenario, if i keep the 7800 as the common card. The X2 does not seem to offer any advantage on gaming.

I spent a couple of days trying to get it working with various combination and testing its performance across applications. Interesting finds, but since i am posting this in the OC forum, would like to state...

    PC Peripherals The Memory Bandwidth achievement

    @king - Yes windows XP Pro does not have NUMA support, but that was patched in SP2 - I loaded the OS with XP SP2 CD - which enabled NUMA support @golden - Now that is question i can't answer yet. the bandwidth test in Sandra moved from 5000 to 11000. In real life yet to find the difference.

    PC Peripherals The Memory Bandwidth achievement

    well, i think you guys got it right, specially Chaos. Well it was a dual opteron 246, but even with a dual opteron you can get only around 4000 or 5000 Kb/s. It was this tryst with NUMA where i managed to get 11000 Kb/s sec. The bandwidth efficiency should be around 80% but without NUMA it...

    Hi Guys, I managed a major breakthrough yesterday in memory configuration. But just to have some fun posting the sandra screenshot. Can you guess how this is possible? The only clue i can give you is that the memory is at 215 Mhz.

    Monitors Two Questions regarding Mouse and Monitor

    I was in a similar dilemna, The DVI input is very important. I could only find the BENQ 17" LCD - it was the only with DVI input and costs around 15K in Mumbai. The 17" LCD is better than a 19" CRT. The 19" would be able to give you are viewing area of around 18" which a 17" LCd would give you...
