What im saying is slight over clock, should not be able to catch him as he should be up near the top. So either ECC is exposing these people or certain peoples bags of tricks are coming to an end. I think I like ECC on now. Side note: You can use CTRL-F and set you clocks. Doing this keeps the clocks pretty close to average, but doing so can lower scores. Edit: Exactly. Lower vram means bad card. If that is in fact the case. Edit: MSI Afterburner Memory over Clock 1000=1438 1100=1450 1200=1463 1300=1475 1400=1488 1500=1500 1600=1513 1700=1525 1800=1537 Or Maybe you are right and he is sandbagging....

Slight over clock? All his scores are over clocked. Even LOD didn't help him.... https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/89251193 Maybe his sample is trash? Even with high over clock and high average.... But memory over clock is low.

Nope, stock is lower. And his LN2 stuff is 3090/3090TI.

Not sure what this guy is doing, but don't do like him.... https://hwbot.org/submission/5204031_zippytek_unigine_superposition___1080p_xtreme_geforce_rtx_4090_22650_points Almost all his scores are low with his HOF card.....

So it does not show the card in the bios....😢

Hummm, I can not find any of my 3 way bridges. I know you can use 3 flex cables though. And board is an Asus Rampage V Extreme.

Will do. I'll look later today. That physics doesn't amount to much in firestrike though....

I think I still have an Asus Rampage X58 MB but not sure if it has 1 bad fan header.

I have some 3 way sli bridges somewhere.

What does event viewer say?

Well Fontana was sounding far better than Fresno. LOL I would have driven out there to pick up a block or grabbed one when I was doing a job in Bloomington.

You said it's coming from Fontana? Is that the seller or some sort of warehouse?

The bot would need something that could auto detect for 3dmark, but that seems virtually impossible. So it is what it is. Me personally, I can't be spending all day on complaining about them and the ranking and scoring system. If i feel like submitting then I will if not, then I'll just sit back Like I have been doing. If the 4090 TI comes out then for me it will be a moot point as I will trade this card in for a 4090TI and all my points will be void yet again for the newer card.

That score will be getting kicked to the curb.... but how fast after the 15th is the million dollar question. I'm ready for the score changes because I don't have a bunch of bugged runs, but that 3090 NVlink I was really mad about. That cost real money! Along with the mobile gpus scores they lost of mine.

If it was implemented and no one even knew it was there, no one would be the wiser on scores being able to go higher. It's only because people know that makes it a real problem. The issue is people do benchmarks a certain way and along comes a bunch of cheaters messing with the system. So changes have to be made. And this is their answer thus far. I already complained about my benchmarks being removed and that was that. Time to move on and adapt is what I do. Most if not all of the 30 series had ECC as well as 40 Series.... The difference is they exposed it to the OS. From my understanding.

We want to keep it off as it gives higher scores, but with it off...People run benchmarks with crazy high memory over clocks which cause the benchmark to glitch out and start running faster than normal as it's no longer rendering all the content. ECC does error correcting so it means you can not really run crazy mem over clocks stable.

Not sure that will fly past when it hits 3dmark website.... speculations of course.

Keeping it on is valid, but turning it off for 3dmark benchmarks is not valid.

Below means it's enabled right? 23.5GB. Above means ECC is off 24.5GB

Didn't try that tip you mentioned but will try it when I reboot my pc.

So that's with ECC off right? Edit: Well, maybe not. LOL

I always wondered where your avatar came from. 🤣

It became to much of a hassle...At every turn we were getting shut down and our suggestions were getting blocked by tricking us into working with manufactures on making a better product for the community, but it was to help them lock us out of them. Then allow them to make a cheaper version as we couldn't get past their power related issues.... And the list goes on.

Thanks. So I see! 🙂 I went down that path for like 2 days, but everything resulted in partial driver installed, but with error 43. So I gave up. That was back when I got my first card.
