Benchmarking

[Enderman]

Why is there no benchmark sub forum?

I think it would be cool if LTT forum members had a dedicated place to share their system benchmarks and scores.
 

I wanted to share my ROG RealBench score

(I forgot to use my overclocked profile for my 770 when I did the benchmark, that is why my CL score is a bit low)

 

I'm interested to see what other guys on this forum also get on this benchmark, or other benchmarks as well.

The ROG leaderboard is just too many people.

That's a good question... why isn't there one?

And the only game I notice is Minecraft in that screenshot :3

lol yeah, i play that a lot

There technically is threads about benchmarks I think. The CPU subforum has a CPU OC database that I'm pretty sure requires you include a benchmark. The GPU subforum has a GPU OC database that I'm pretty sure also requires you to include benchmarks. There probably are more benchmark threads under their respective subforum.

but its all spread out

it would be nice to have a single thread or sub forum for all benchmarks

There are too many tricks to get a higher score with realbench the last time I checked.

I'll try it I suppose

This is what I got @Enderman  cpu is at 4.5 atm though, 4.8 requires to much voltage for 24/7 imo

nice pc

is your 780 overclocked?

Only a little in that, I haven't bothered flashing back onto the bios that lets me go to 1.319 volts.  Usually only when I'm bored I do that lol

What bios?

Is it easy?

I really want to flash one on my 780

What card do you have?

[TheNinjaNextDor]

What card do you have?

Reference 780 (superclocked, but that doesn't matter) from EVGA.

Watercooled.

Keep in mind, one person on the forum used this and fried his card, a cap exploded I believe (He didn't have a custom loop, so it probably got to hot)

 

Make a back-up of your ROM, if it dies whilst overvolting, boot into windows with your onboard gpu and re-flash back to default before sending it back.

Keep in mind, this can push your 780's tdp upwards of 350-400 watts.

Sounds dangerous. Ill try it out when I get home

I have an 850w Gold PSU. Is it ok for 24/7 use?

Should be fine.  Is your waterblock a full cover, does it cover the VRM?

Swiftech Komodo

Covers everything.

You'll be ok then.  Expect 1500 mhz maybe 1550 from 1.32v (the max the 1.3v bios can push)

 

Usually in most cases I've seen 100mv = 100 mhz on the core. 

[TheNinjaNextDor]

Ok. I got my card to 1430Mhz just with precision X so im excited to see

Thanks.

I editted my post btw.

 

If you need help ask me I can do my best to help, but if you brick your card its not my fault

 

(I've flashed from stock and the 1.3v bios like 5 times now, you should be fine)

Yep, I saw that.

I wonder if I can RMA if I brick it or kill it with the OC. (i really doubt I will)

How do you do it? Just download that bios and run it or something?

You first download a beta version of afterburner.  Then in CMD prompt, you enter a command line that unlocks afterburner to allow 1300 mv voltage slider, then you download the zip with the ROM and bios flashing tool. Add a folder in your C drive named "Nvflash" drag and drop the zip files content in there. Open CMD prompt, type chdir C:/nvflash

 

Then you type nvflash "nameofBIOS.rom" --override -6 

Then you push Y once, it'll beep then beep again when its done. Then restart.

Thanks! I will see if my card works (after I dry it) then try it

I'll PM you if I need help and watch some videos on it maybe.

I have a good video I can link you, it's usually what I use to double check and make sure I typed everything right.
