LTT 3DMark Thread

I thought about it but so far I like where everything is at.  I have a pretty good overclock with both my cards having an ASIC quality of 75% and with my current airflow setup and everything being so quiet, I maintain an average temp of 73c.  What catches a lot of people off guard is that I have the base model 980 and achieving above average scores in benchmarks all the while having a stable overclock.

I am always throwing people off with my 770's and now this 280.

Yeah I know.  It's insane what you achieved with your 770's!

Now if I got brave enough I would do a volt mod for 1.32/1.35V but on these coolers the cards would bake them selves.

I can't beat the 280 in any 3D Mark Benchmark  :unsure: 
I am kinda speechless.

It is not just a gpu + a circuit board with some stuff on it! It is a divine being! Sent from the gods!

 

Or maybe it is just a 780 in disguise...

Its between 100-300 points ahead in firestrike and FireStrike Extreme Single card, I didn't run Skydiver on the 280 yet.

You've won the silicon lottery, that's for sure. :0

Okay alright... I knew that this had to happen and today I finally overcame my lazyness and modded the BIOS of all my 3 GTX980s. Pain in the ass procedure since I took the time to do it with each card single and test it. But the result makes me really happy. I´m now #6 worldwide in 3D Mark ULTRA with 3 GPUs.

 

Of course there´s just the first card displayed but I could raise core speed and VRAM speed quite a notch for all cards and my second card boosts now up to 1601MHz (was before at 1552MHz) . It doesn´t get much better on air with a stable system.

Man, breaking the 11,000 barrier was actually pretty tough without melting my CPU. Might try for 5.2 GHz later but my temps are starting to overwhelm my cooling solution.

New high score already.  Think this is about as far as I'm going to push this.  Maybe I'll try overclocking through FSB and see if that benefits me.  Could also try pushing the GPU more I suppose.

Good job everybody! We just reached 101 submissions today! Keep up the good work and keep on benchmarking your rigs and we will fill this database with a lot more data .

 

Don't forget to check (only applies if you have it of course ) the Steam Software sales, sometimes 3D Mark full version is available there really cheap and it's nice being able to benchmark more and skip the demos.

didn't bother to try to maximize my score, some stuff was running in the background

Seems like by looking at the chart a lot of people pending between 10000 and 11000 points.

Welcome to the LTT forums .

 

But of course I will add your score to the spread sheet. If you have a at a certain point the 3D Mark full version I´d be happy to add more than FireStrike scores.

Get the memory clock higher and you will score higher

[TahoeDust]

I can't get it stable any higher. One of my original EVGA cards had Samsung memory and it would do 8000MHz. My second EVGA and these two Gigabyte G1s have Hynix and will not clock as high without artifacting.

You added the GPU scores!!!! Must have been a lot of work. Thanks again for all the time you commit to this thread!!

 

I have the only 970 that has broken 14k Graphics score so far? Craziness!! Start tweaking people!!
