3dmark problem

[Nagasama]

hey any of you guys with hd2900pro's have problems running 3dm06?
mine starts and then just stops responding.
flashed the bios w0ot.
but, do i need to re-install 3dmark?

never mind fixed it. have to change a file in 3dm06 and no prob.
9440 card at stock, cpu @ 2.8 ram at 4-4-4-12-2t 800mhz.

There is a hotfix that will make it run normally again.

Hotfix for 3DMark 06/05/03 and PCMark05

bang! cpu only overclocked to 2.85, ram not overlclocked at all.
card is running at 800 core, 1800 memory (OUCH!). havent really jacked up the cards OC, i definitely think i need a new PSU to realize the full potential of this card...
i'll break 10K by the end of the week. oh, yay-yer.

is this a new pc?
if it isnt...what are you gonna do with your sli setup?

 

[Nagasama]

same pc, took the sli 7900gs' out, put in the hd2900pro and flashed the bios to XT (by the way, the tutorial floating around on the internet is kinda vague...it is a little different than what is posted, especially if you use a floppy instead of usb flash drive).
both 7900's are up for sale on ebay, had them listed here but got no response.
hopefully i will sell them for close to enough to pay for the sapphire. if not, meh. it didnt cost that much.

i sold my 7900gs , one month old on ebay for $110 after shipping.
but that was like a little over a month ago...

 

[Nagasama]

i have a bunch of people watching them. im selling them together. hopefully i'll get around 200 + shipping. id be happy with that. i'd be happier with 250 + shipping lol free hd2900. those exact cards cost 230 each now.
