the average bench for the 390x 95.8 percent, but i hit 81 percent?

 

Is there something faulty with my graphics card?

 

thanks for reading

 

EDIT: I hit one of the lowest, and ran around 3 benchmarks each hitting 80-81 percent

take a screenshot of the results

 

and also look at GPU-Z ID and see the temps, GPU load and GPU and VRAM speeds

it affect the CPU scores

 

3Dmarks measure both CPU and GPU scores

 

 

be sure to go to BIOS and look under memory and set XMP

ok i see a small difference between the old and new scores with XMP on

 

so the only thing left is OCing your CPU

 

if you saw the other 4690K score

 

the CPU was OCed
