Well tomorrow I'll get a multimeter and feed you my results. Hopefully they will be good. I can get the 540M up over 4GHz, now I want to get it higher because it's the best chip I have for global points. I'll also be picking up some dice tomorrow and bench the chips with that using the dice cup. Heat won't be a factor, So maybe I can use the full 150mV on the chip. Best thing for me to do would be test on the 520M since that will be a stock chip. if it dies, I'll just call dell

Yea thats what I was thinking about. It's very fragile. Where did you get the copper braid? I might be able to strip some CAT 5 line. If I can get this done, it will mean rerunning benchmarks on the 520M, 540M, and other chips. Not sure if the 540 will be an issue with heat, but breaking out the dice cup would be necessary for the 940XM. Just hit me, I can use speaker wire. I think essentially your just connecting the pins right? I mean when you jump the two holes, the socket still slides into place once the chip is locked in so essentially it appears your just jumping the pins.

Yup. And you don't have to bench every time you get beat. Gotta keep an ace up your sleeve.

Submit some. Use only your best if you have to. That way if you get beat you can submit another. Just submit the min to take the gold

@mw86 Thats awesome, congrats. That chip must have been cooking! I can't wait to get the 6990s, just need to figure out some PSU stuff now. Attaching some benches to participate in the benching thingy -
Hmm, man I wish I had my 6970's back. Anyone into hardware sharing? I'm thinking about joining the team. The OC Forums team is great, but I have yet to get enough posts over at OC Forums to get into the benchmarking team lounge. They have a seperate benchmarking subforum, and then in that is a members only access for team members with 100+ posts. I don't just post to post, and still at like 75 posts. The thing I like about this team is small, and every little contribution helps. I have 160 team points to contribute, but I'm only 23rd out of 340 on OC Forums team. The leader has almost 2000 pts And I've only used notebook hardware. HWbot is really tailored to desktop hardware. I would also really like to see this team grow. I think it could be great with the knowledge available to it.

OFFICIAL: M17x-R2 Benchmarking Thread
DR650SE replied to StamatisX's topic in Alienware M17x / AW 17
Yea, it'll be a lot of fun. Aarpcard made one but spliced into one psu to adapt the connector. I want to did a way to make one so no splicing is necessary. Maybe then resistance will remain uniform across both psu's. -

DR650SE replied to StamatisX's topic in Alienware M17x / AW 17
Only one pot. Be nice if I had two. I normally just put the dice straight on the heatsink. Bit i tjonk that is what killed a 5870. Moisture. In other news, I have a pair of 6990s on the way. I also have a second psu in my possession. Just waiting for aarpcard testing of his adaptor and ill be doing the same. Gotta find a way for the system to share the power load. -

Yea, as soon as I can have regualr internet access, I will definately be updating. I also was walking through the grocery store yesterday and noticed, they sell dry ice for $1.09/lb. I'm getting in on that as soon as I get my 6970's back. I just need to insulate the cards pretty well. Thinking I may just coat them in gummy art eraser to prevent any moisture build up. -
M17x-R2 - Overclocking 5870M in CFX causes flickerking
DR650SE replied to StamatisX's topic in Alienware M17x / AW 17
Yea, if you restart, does it flicker at stock clocks? Id have to restart at stock to prevent flickering. On a side note I ran dual monitors once, dual furmark overclocked and 1.15v and my temps were ok but after 30 sec it zap a card. Temps low 80s and my slave or master went kaput. Instant KIA. Gone but not forgotten. his sacrifice lives on Hahaha
