Ukr_Alex Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 Well I just placed an order for an e6300 which I plan to OC to the 3ghz mark which should be easy. Also a x1900xtx and a 2gb 5300 Patriot kit. To this day I had a 2.4C P4 OCed to 3.4 and an 850xt I would figure that I should be able to absolutly max out LOMAC now? Anyone with a similar setup that can confrim this? If LOMAC still wont be dad smooth with the new setup Ill be sad :( :Core2Duo @ 435FSB x 7 3.05GHz : ATI x1900xtx: 2GB Patriot @ 435Mhz : WD 250Gb UATA: Seagate 320Gb SATA2: X-Fi Platinum:

Well I hope so mate. I mean Im ok running lomac with 4AA 16AF @1680x1050 with textures at HIGH and most things high to medium. and the fps is OK until I fly over a town or a city, then some annoying stutters just ruin the experiance :( I'll post my results once the gear arrives, which hopefully will be in 2 days or so. Edit- My order shipped today :) So I might even post some results tomorrow night :) :Core2Duo @ 435FSB x 7 3.05GHz : ATI x1900xtx: 2GB Patriot @ 435Mhz : WD 250Gb UATA: Seagate 320Gb SATA2: X-Fi Platinum:

Ukr_Alex Posted September 26, 2006 Author Posted September 26, 2006 Its most definetly bang for the buck. I buy at NCIX.com they are canadian but they do US too, and you guys pay no tax because its Canadian ;) I saved over 100$ on my full order. And I would definetly not get the X1900xtx, only reason I got it because today they had it on a special sale for only 10$ more then the X1900xt :) The xt can do xtx spec with little effort. But the E6300 is an amazing chip. It should do 3.3ghz on air easy. The Asus P5B is the motherboard of choice for the E6300. Works perfectly with it. The patriot ram is great bang for the buck, and its very good perfomance wise. Some people achieved mad overclocks on patriots. :Core2Duo @ 435FSB x 7 3.05GHz : ATI x1900xtx: 2GB Patriot @ 435Mhz : WD 250Gb UATA: Seagate 320Gb SATA2: X-Fi Platinum:
grandsurf Posted September 26, 2006 Posted September 26, 2006 I use a 6600@3200Mhz and one 1900XTX (change this Week to a 1950XTX :) ) on the Asus P5B Deluxe/Wifi MB with 2GB G.E.I.L. PC2-800 Ram. Lockon goes perfect on this System!
Ukr_Alex Posted September 26, 2006 Author Posted September 26, 2006 GrandSurf dont waist a day longer. However I do have some motherboard issues....actually voltage being to high issues.....to make long story short. As for right now I can only run the 6300 at 6700 spec...or more precisely 2.67GHZ. From the stock 1.8 However forget all that.... I managed to run this rather cheap ram at 1:1 ratio with the FSB at 380. :) When I solve my board problems Ill take this baby to 3 ghz and leave it there. ______________________________________________________________ The x1900xtx is awesome. Image quaility is a lot, a lot better then my 850xt. I mean you can really see it. Day and night. It eats anything I throw at it. Any setting I can think of maxed out and everything is dead smooth. ______________________________________________________________ Lomac runs mega fast. I have it 1680x1050 16AF HQ AF, and 6x AA... Eveyrhing in game maxed out, all the options on. Its just smoooth. ______________________________________________________________ Multitasking is awesome. Im running a LOMAC demo in the background, and browsing my system and typing in the forum like I just rebooted.... LONG LIVE DUAL CORE! :Core2Duo @ 435FSB x 7 3.05GHz : ATI x1900xtx: 2GB Patriot @ 435Mhz : WD 250Gb UATA: Seagate 320Gb SATA2: X-Fi Platinum:
Guest IguanaKing Posted September 27, 2006 Posted September 27, 2006 That's great to read Alex! My X6800/X1950XTX system arrives on Friday. Hopefully I'll have it put together and running by the following weekend. I'm glad you got good results with your recent upgrade. :D
Ukr_Alex Posted September 27, 2006 Author Posted September 27, 2006 yea its great, I just need to get these voltages sorted and then Ill OC it some more. :) But its awesome just maxing out lomac :) and FPS is way up there.... :Core2Duo @ 435FSB x 7 3.05GHz : ATI x1900xtx: 2GB Patriot @ 435Mhz : WD 250Gb UATA: Seagate 320Gb SATA2: X-Fi Platinum:

D-Scythe Posted September 28, 2006 Posted September 28, 2006 Awesome for you UKR Alex. I'm assuming that you have no problems running LOMAC with everything cranked up? :)
Ukr_Alex Posted September 28, 2006 Author Posted September 28, 2006 Yep, everything that could be put to max is at max. All in game maxed. Mirrors high rez everything. There is no game yet that makes this sytem work. Eveyrthing I throw at it is just mega fps.... AA 6x A F16x 1680x1050 32bit Even the runways looks sharp now. http://www.is-mad.com/upload/userfiles/SFDMALEX/LOMAC2/ScreenShot_010.jpg http://www.is-mad.com/upload/userfiles/SFDMALEX/ScreenShot_006.jpg http://www.is-mad.com/upload/userfiles/SFDMALEX/ScreenShot_014.jpg http://www.is-mad.com/upload/userfiles/SFDMALEX/LOMAC2/ScreenShot_020.jpg http://www.is-mad.com/upload/userfiles/SFDMALEX/LOMAC2/ScreenShot_044.jpg http://www.is-mad.com/upload/userfiles/SFDMALEX/LOMAC2/ScreenShot_046.jpg http://www.is-mad.com/upload/userfiles/SFDMALEX/LOMAC2/ScreenShot_018.jpg http://www.is-mad.com/upload/userfiles/SFDMALEX/LOMAC2/ScreenShot_047.jpg http://www.is-mad.com/upload/userfiles/SFDMALEX/LOMAC2/ScreenShot_036.jpg :Core2Duo @ 435FSB x 7 3.05GHz : ATI x1900xtx: 2GB Patriot @ 435Mhz : WD 250Gb UATA: Seagate 320Gb SATA2: X-Fi Platinum:
Ukr_Alex Posted September 28, 2006 Author Posted September 28, 2006 Yea one core, all games are...dont think anything is optimized to run two cores yet.

Guest IguanaKing Posted September 29, 2006 Posted September 29, 2006 Hehe...can't wait!!! My new system arrives tomorrow, and I'm looking forward to what it does for LOMAC. :D
Ukr_Alex Posted September 29, 2006 Author Posted September 29, 2006 Does it only run in one core of E6300 ? Do keep in mind though that even though it runs in one core, that one core is still faster than anything else out there. Me mate had an Intel 950 the dual core one and this is way way faster on core to core comparisons. And I dont even have to mention how much faster single core of an Core Duo 2 is then that of a P4... It's an amazing chip. You can get an E6300 and with a good board OC it to E6800 spec withouht problems. At the moment I am very much ram limited because I simply could not afford to dish out the money in a good OC set of ddr6400s. My friend took a 6300 to 3.3GHz on stock air cooling ;) Stable too ;) :Core2Duo @ 435FSB x 7 3.05GHz : ATI x1900xtx: 2GB Patriot @ 435Mhz : WD 250Gb UATA: Seagate 320Gb SATA2: X-Fi Platinum:
