ASIII is overrated anyways. Whip out the sanding paper and flatten that core, then put some cheap thermal paste on there. :)

I'll get around to it... someday...
cough . . SLACKER! . . . :p
You lucky bastages shouldn't complain my GF2 isn't gonna break 10K anytime soon!
The slacker comment was directed towards CV.
I'll probably upgrade again next summer, which means you can have my kt333, xp2000 and ti4200 for cheap. :)
Sounds very nice Giblet thanks! Yeah I know that comment was at CV and I found it quite humorous.:D I was just saying it's kind of funny looking at my GF2 and then you guys are talking about being disappointed with your overclocks on your GF4's.:rolleyes:
Squeezed a little more out of the stock vid card 18888 . I just got my new N-force NF-7 board. I need to solder a couple of pots on it and see what I can do with it. Still haven't fixed my video card cooler yet, so I won't be able to max out my bench, but I won't have the problem of the card holding my FSB down.
A nforce 2 should be good for a few extra 3dmarks over your kt400. Can't wait to see your results! :)
Actually I am/was using the KD7-E for the last couple of benches. It's the KT333 chipset. My KD7-Raid board was acting up, so I boxed it up to RMA. I'm anxious to see what it can do also.
Nice work Nohto. I think soon THIS will be you!
Yeah I know Opp he's one of my teammates. He has a lucky processor that will 3-DMark bench at 2950 Mhz. Mine will do around 2860 on a unlocked bus and then my Radeon shuts it down because I can't get it over 190 FSB and the KD7-E doesn't have a 14.5 multiplier. I picked up another 2700+ yesterday to see if I could get a higher clock, but it is about the same if not a little bit lower. I'll have to wait until they get some more in and see if I can find a "LUCKY" one. I hope to get into the 20,000 range, but a good video clock is imperative for a good score.
Maybe you just "swap" processors for a couple benches eh?

My new 3D Mark with my new XP 2100+ is 7165
It had been 6445 with a 1400 T-Bird
Way to go NOHTO! You seem to have a lot more money than me... but once I lap my Ti4200 core and vmod it I'll be certain to hit 13.5k! :D
"but a good video clock is imperative for a good score."
Gotta love that 3dmark.... 25MHz can mean a difference of 3000 points for me... :rolleyes:
And GP, I bet once your liquid cooling system is in you'll be breathing on my neck, or maybe not :p It'll be an intense battle between the two of us, I'm certain :r :r
OK... after running the bench a few days ago, on a 12x 155MHz fsb, i hit 11,646 3DMarks....
i guess that when i next bench it on the 166 FSB i will get higher still.
I'm not happy with my Ti4200... figured out why my ram is limited to 570MHz - the heat sink/spreader on the back of the card (Leadtek) doesnt actually touch the top two chips properly, not giving proper contact. once i fix this, i should be able to go a lil' bit higher on my mem speeds aswell.:rolleyes:
Happy benching!
