Unigine Valley Benchmark Scores Thread + SUPERPOSITION ***Over 1000 Submissions!***

[Faa]

The 3930k at 5ghz alone takes 250-270 watts, at 4.7 I tested it and it was using 230 watts, both 780's once flashed will take upwards of 350 once I get to ~1.3v

I'm gonna get a seasonic 1250 whenever I get money from selling my monitors on ebay, then I'ma RMA my hx1050 and sell the replacement they send me, I think my hx1050's fan is broke it rattles ridiculously loud at full speed, makes me nervous >.<

4.6GHz is 260W

This is CPU wattage only no system load

So you're comparing the max fan noise of a psu with a different psu measured under normal conditions? The fan on the RM1000 is definitely way louder than on Seasonic. If you're going with the RM1000 get a 1000 P2 has a hybrid fan that only kicks in when the PSU is above 45°. It's based on temp only and not load.

In my TJ11 the fan starts to kick in at 700W load, haven't tried yet adding a fan so it blows air to the psu and 1000W load if the fan kicks in or not. Earlier you said you were planning to benchmark etc such as firestrike but do you realize firestrike the GPU part isn't cpu intensive at all and you won't gain any performance with a CPU oc, right? When the GPU is at 99% all the time, you won't gain more performance with a higher clock. Don't buy a PSU with a certain wattage just for worst case scenario's that you'll be doing very often, buy a PSU with the wattage that's needed for your most intensive daily things such as gaming. My PSU won't handle prime95 with a 3930k@5GHz + 3x 780's running furmark but will easily handle BF4 with all three gpu's at 99%.

The only thing I'm worried about is 70-100% load fan speed, if it's lower at max speed to begin with, it'll probably be lower at every other wattage.  All the reviews I've seen claim the rm-1000's fan is from 0-27 dba, with 27 dba being 100% load, whilst the seasonic 1000/1250 at ~50% load starts to be above 28 dba.  I understand seasonic's have much better internals, which is why I want the seasonic, but if I can't get one I'll end up going for the rm1000, or the p2 if the fan works the way you said it does.

 

That 1000 p2, I'm curious about it now, I think you recommended me that 1300 watt supernova, but after researching the fan speed on techpowerup, I'm not comfortable with that kind of noise. 

 

Does the switch honestly work as it's said, and when it does kick the fan on, is it at 100%? Because the 100% fan speed is 48dba, which is the same as my hx1050 now, and it sounds like a god dam jet engine. Also, if I was to get the p2, and I pointed the fan towards my rad, so it was always getting fresh air, under load the air coming from that rad would get a bit toasty, how often would the PSU actually hit 45 degrees?

 

I spent a lot of money silencing my PC whilst getting the most performance I can. I really don't want one part screwing that up , I'm trying to figure out a way to get rid of my HDD's annoying ass buzzing noise, but I'm unsure if covering the HDD bay in sound-dampening foam will do that, plus I'd imagine it looks retarded. I may just buy a 500 gb ssd and get rid of my hdd all together.

 

 

 

 

 

 

260 watts from the wall maybe, otherwise hw-info64 is wrong, which I'm sure it very well could be.

That gragh ispointles because cpu's take different voltage to reach certain speeds.

WTF temps?

 

1382311c?

[GzeroD]

It seems to pick a number at random when I start valley and use that as the card temp re installing windows, valley, or a different video card hasn't changed that.    real temp was about 64C with 100% fan (and a window open ) (according to GPU-Z and Afterburner)

If anyone knows why it's doing that I would love to know.

That's a bit odd but it's a relief to know that you weren't actually frying your gpu.

 

As for the reason why valley displays your temp much higher than it actually is I wouldn't know.  You could try the Troubleshooting section I'm sure someone could help you out there.

[GzeroD]

At over a million celcius i don't think I'd be frying my GPU as much as wondering how/if it stared to generate its own power; I doubt I'm getting that much heat from a 110v/15a outlet.

The Eco switch works like this: when its on the fan will only spin when it's needed in this case for a P2 its above 45° - when it's off the fan will spin all the time and it's PWM controlled based on heat. When you turn the eco mode off the fan does not spin at 100% and is PWM controlled. The RM1000's noise results were measured when the PSU was under load which is not the maximum noise the fan can produce. That 50dBa you found is just the noise the fan produces at maximum speed which would never ever happen because PSU's are so extremely efficient resulting in low heat output and therefore no need to spin faster. That max speed would be probs who knows 2500 rpm even at 100% load the fan spins @ 800rpm. 

The RM series has the same problem like their AXi series with a crappy hybrid fan control.

However, while this would seem to make the unit ideal for quiet cooling environments, it really isn’t as we have learned from some back and forth with Corsair this unit is going to rely on a good bit of airflow through it to function properly because of the way the fan controller was designed and tested. Not exactly ideal if you are using passive components in order to come up with an extremely quiet machine and you are counting on the fan in the power supply to look after the power supply appropriately.

Taken from rm750w review: http://www.hardocp.com/article/2013/11/13/corsair_rm750_750w_power_supply_review/9#.UuquBfl5Olc 

The P2 is quiet in both modes for me and I'm pricky about noise probably the worst bitch about it. The 1300 G2 isn't a semi passive psu like the P2 and it has a different fan which is much louder than the P2. The RM psu's are just mediocre and theyre not any better than TX psu's or your HX1050. Go either with a seasonic or this P2. I have the fan facing to the outside of my case (TJ11).

Also wattage monitoring tools are inaccurate.

Yeah your knowledge as well. That few mV's aren't going to make a drastic difference so this graph is perfect. The amps remain the same doesn't matter what chip, voltage is different like you said. So for instance 4.9GHz 280A*1.40V vs 280A*1.45V so a difference of 10W.

If you like post your comment here where Ive found the graph and let's see how funny you sound.

lol it will pull more current at a high voltage multiplying the effect of the wattage going up. just stop talking bs and ruining everybody's threads with false, out of date and hand picked fanboy information.  :angry:

@Faa 

 

2500 rpm at max fan speed? Everywhere I've found says the fan speed is 0-1150 RPM +/- 10%   Most sites I see say " 1x 140mm thermal controled fan with rifle bearing (0 - 1105RPM / 0-27 dBA) " for the fan information.

 

Johnnyguru posted a comment on here: saying at 80% load, the rm-1000's fan is still at 12.4 dba ( 726 rpm) , and that only at 100% it hits the 27 dba, at that 1100~ rpm. 

 

http://www.silentpcreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=66546p%3D580097

 

I want to be 100% sure that even if the fan does have to hit it's max speed, not saying it ever will, but on the off chance it does, I want to be sure it's still going to be under 35 dba.  I'm not sure how quiet your system is, but the loudest thing in my case right now when my psu isn't spinning, is the tiny buzz of the HDD (not when it's spinning, when it's idle).   I'm planning on replacing it with an ssd in the future, to make it completely silent.  Whenever I get the PSU i'd like it to be as quiet as it possibly can be, even if I have to rip the fan out and replace it with a different fan to ensure that it's always silent no matter what I'm doing.

After reading this, yes at 36-45 C ambient temps but even still, there's times where my room gets well over 25c ambient.  After looking at the colored graph, I'm not so sure..  Those ratings are much louder than the seasonic 1000/ 1250 and the rm 1000 still.

Learn to maths. P= U*I -> a tiny 50mV is going to be a minor multiplier. Basically in 2 comments you had no proper arguments/source to backup your claims so youre just as usual spraying misinformation. Insulting ppl basing on your own false arguments is silly.

An ambient temp of 36-45° isn't acceptable for most of us. 

This is the rm850W, if you look it's at 44dBa at 800W and the P2 is at 33dBa at 800W. I can try later for you test it out at 1000w load taking a noctua fan blowing onto the psu and see if the fan kicks in or not.

So hopefully after you get the 7790 your rig will perform better (at least better than 1 fps).
