Alright, I'll show off some pics of my benching days. I'm probably the only person on this forum to have a CPU over 7ghz, benched every single 4000, 5000, 6000, gtx 200, 400, 500, and 600 series card (except a 680). Have owned and benched over 30 different motherboards, 70+ cpu's, and over a hundred graphics cards. Have benched with Dry ice, liquid nitrogen, single stage phase, water, and high end air. But it's cool when you guys don't think I know what I'm talking about.

I'm on the benching team for overclockers.com and benching for points for my team on hwbot.org.

^ I own that very same Sapphire HD 5870 :) Man I see that photo was taken nearly 3 years ago, lol. :p


Yeah when a 5870 was the top AMD/ATI card ;)


Oh and just to throw this in there as a LOL, an 850w PSU was the largest wattage PSU I've ever used for all my benching. When I had that tri fire 5850 setup, I was running an I7 920 at 5.1ghz for the benching. CPU was probably pulling over 300w alone. However with that said, the I7 980x is by far the hottest CPU I've ever used. Once you get beyond 4.8ghz on that, it is a raging inferno. Put it this way, even by 4.8 ghz I was seeing positive numbers on my single stage phase under load (no load is -44c average, most CPU's under load would take it to the -30's). Had to go to LN2 to really keep it cold.

;) Good old days. I remember when it came out I was like "I'm never gonna own one" and then on eBay about 3 years later, "oh look, 5870 for 100 quid!" *buy it now*. :D

It's still a great performer.

Yes a 5870 can still dominate most modern games on 1080p. It's really limited mostly by it's 1gb of Vram.

Sadly it is. :( If I had gotten the 2GB Eyefinity 6 edition I think it would still be great, but I think the Eyefinity 6 edition had Display Ports only? No DVI or HDMI.

Well 50 gpus is a lot for a average computer builder.

Double that for me if you count SLI/Xfire or just multiples of the same card over the years. Heck, I've had six 9800GX2's, 4 gtx 295's, and eight 8800/9800gt's. Thats 18 right there lol.

Let me compile a list here-

8500gt
8600gt x2
8600gts x4
8800gt x6
8800gts x4
8800gtx x2
8800 ultra x2
9400gt
9500gt
9600gt x2
9600gso
9800gt x2
9800gtx x2
9800GX2 x6
gts 240 x2 (not gt 240)
gts 250 x4
gtx 260 x2
gtx 260 c216 x2
gtx 275 x2
gtx 280
gtx 285 x2
gtx 295 x4
gts 450 x3
gtx 460 se
gtx 460 768mb x2
gtx 460 1gb x4
gtx 465
gtx 470 x2
gtx 480 x2
gtx 550 Ti
gtx 560
gtx 560 Ti x2
gtx 570 x2
gtx 580 x2
gtx 650
gtx 650 Ti
gtx 660
gtx 660 oem
gtx 660 Ti
gtx 670

There's Nvidia, actually thats 84 alone just for that if I counted right rofl. Maybe I should compile an AMD list now. That doesn't even include the really low end cards such as the GT 240 and gt 430/440 which I've owned some of those too. So it's probably close to 100 GPU's just for Nvidia actually. I really underestimated there, I guess it's just all running together for me at this point lol.

Hey guys (and sweet girls :D) I just thought I should let you know that today approximately 2 hours ago I have almost completely finished the stage 2 of my main UAC data complex center working environment room.The only thing I now need to do is to finally build the UAC data device.I have made drawings for that device last year in september while I was still in stage 1...so you can see how much work I had to do before even getting to the part of making that UAC data device lol.

Anyway...

It shouldn't take me more than 4 days (tops...it will probably be 3 days) in order to make that UAC data device.Once I FINALLY make that device,stage 2 will be OFFICIALLY FINISHED!!!:D:D:D AND THAT'S JUST FUC*ING GREAT!!!:D:D:D

And you know why :D?

Because after that I can finally start AND finish the last STAGE 3 and stage 3 should not take me more than just 10 days since stage 3 is just a simple...well let's call it a...SOFTWARE STAGE in which I just need to install operating system(s),driver(s) and enhance my two XP clones which I have in 2 separate directories on ONE SINGLE old Seagate hard disk drive...WHICH WILL FINALLY BE TRANSFERED ON THE UAC DATA DEVICE TOGETHER WITH ALL OTHER DATA I HAVE PLUS MAKE A 100% FULL COPY OF ALL THE DATA AS A SAFE BACKUP...AND YES...ALL THAT WILL BE ON THAT SINGLE UAC DATA DEVICE as soon as it's finished :p

And why is that good?

Because when I finally finish that stage 3 (as I am still currently in stage 2 which should be finished in the next 4 days) then I can finally make a nice music video of that main UAC data complex center working environment room and show it to you all as I have promised. :rolleyes:
