GeForce 295
850w Modular PSU
300GB x2 Raid0 Spinpoint f1
6GB 1600Mhz RAM

CM Storm Sniper Black Edition

3Dmark 06 score around 26,500~ (After some overclocking)

Really nice systems running some benches in my room =)

We played some Metro 2033, and the 5870 actually sometimes had DOUBLE the performance of the 295, and was ahead everywere else, same goes to Left 4 Dead 2. Those were the games that we could compare.

Also Unigine "Tropics" and "Sanctuary" i was ahead and got higher score.

In Crysis he would mostly outperform me with his 295, but this mini-lan my PC was the overall winner =)

How did you get it so stable on 4.32GHz?

I've got my 920 stable on 4.2GHz but if I take it to 4.3 it's super unstable, what all your voltage settings?

@8lindfury watch my bios setting video, 1.28v

I'm not sure why but for some reason whenever I try to boot into the Tropics and Sanctuary benchmarks with my 5870 it loads like normal and you can hear the music and see the options and even click them at the top but it just shows a black screen with like 900 fps. Wish I could get them working they're great. Nice rigs btw!

@jersthecool My cousin got that on his nvidia 295 rig aswell, i belive we reinstalled the drivers and tried it again and it worked, when he started it he started it up in windowed mode first, then went to full screen. you could try this out and see if it works =)

@RozzoFX

I know; don't get your panties in a knot.

I meant, full towers are too big.

Atleast this one.

The RV02 ain't that bad..

[RozzoFX]

@madzane94 RV01 is a full tower, you moron! So why mention stupid mid towers? XD

[gatler05]
