Well here is a 4k bench. I understand why we need to enable AA although it was very painful to watch such choppy frames. I do believe that at 4k nobody is going to be playing with AA enabled, maybe we can get a different tab for that or something of the sorts for results without AA? I am sure some but not all of the choppiness is due to the instability in overclocking.

 

Still an I5-4690k @ stock settings

i play 4K with 2 or 4x AA in games. the only reason i dont use more in games is because i can't get enough fps   you have to remember that this is meant to push your card to the max and beyond! in a few years they need to run 8x aa at 4K so we dont get silly FPS.

That's impressive 0.o        4k and AA, I didn't think it would be possible so soon. Yeah this is benchmarking so we do need to push them that far to get an idea of how they perform worst case scenario ... good point thank you for pointing that out. And I must say I can't wait for the time to come when 4k is as common as 1080p and we can run it with 8x AA. Hopefully I can do some 1440 or 1600 DSR on my 144hz panel when I get a second card for SLI

totally unnecessary for actual gaming, but I'm right there with ya.

you have to run some kind of aa even at 4k. it doesn't magically make the jaggies disappear ya know

I understand that it doesn't make jaggies disappear but with 4x the pixel count on a screen I thought that the jaggies would have been significantly reduced to the point of it not really making a difference unless you were comparing no AA and high levels of AA such as 8x. Maybe I am just overestimating the value of so many pixels? Although I must imagine the extra screen room must be amazing. I don't think I've seen 4k on a panel smaller than 27' after all.

I am a little confused as to how your GPUs in Xfire have 2 different core speeds. I was under the impression that they only work as fast as the slowest one? Or is there a benefit in having one Oc'ed a little higher than the other?

Eh it doesn't really matter because my 770's have a 45mhz boost clock difference between them.

Ok, got my step up cards from EVGA on Monday and the learning curve to overclock from the 780 Ti's I used to have to the 980's was pretty short. The cards I received from EVGA have an ASIC quality of 76% and 73% compared to the mid 80% ASIC scores I had with the 780 Ti's. Here are the new scores for the 980's. I guess it's not bad considering this is the cheapest 980 card that EVGA sells. ($535.00) Three major things I noticed: quiet operation from fans, no coil whine, and runs a lot cooler! Jumper, can you keep my 780Ti scores on the list? Thanks!

Your right. I just ran the benchmark again at 1110 on both and got a better score so I updated my post. The reason why they were different is that my first card is a GHz edition and the other is not. The most I can get out of the second card is 1110 but I've run the GHz card up to 1175. Running the cards like that has givin me better scores in 3dMark but its hard to prove when AB says they're at 1175 and 1110 but my result only shows 1110 on both.

Your 780ti scores will stay on the list as you are submitting your scores with different video cards this time around.

they are actually worst because having more lines of pixels means there are more of them, they are smaller though so you only have to use a small amount of AA to 'fix' them. the extra pixels are brilliant for when you zoom in on a sniper rifle and internet browsing, spreadsheet and multitasking is amazing. because you have 4 x 1080P screens. i usually use it as 2X 1920X2160 screens one web pages to get some extra vertical room so i dont have to scroll as far.

i always keep your old scores with your old cards. you can submit as many different cards as you like as long as they aren't the same gpu's, then i just update the score.

[ivhyn]

the GTX670 and 4K had a fight.............much vram usage.

GG!

I wouldn't even know how to improve my score. Vram is more than maxed, Core and ram frequencies are maxed out too, maybe with the newer drivers it runs a bit more fluid? idk.

i found that i got a higher score at stock for some reason. 

[pdv789]

maybe there is a point where you are just overwhelmingly overloading the gpu and the smoother frame pacing and stability actually benefits more than a nominal oc? At least that is the theory I am going with. Even just overclocking +100 on the core of my 970 when I strain to see it I can tell the difference in the perceived frame smoothness. I don't know if it's because I use a 144mhz panel and it has a 1 ms response or legitimately because it's noticeable difference regardless I can.

yeah. i looked at the gpu usage and it was all over the place. not sure why, but i dont think its meant for 4K anyway. i think certain frame rates will look more choppy than others at very low fps depending on the refresh rate of your monitor. i get loads of screen tearing on my monitor at 63fps in pretty much everything.

So correct if I'm wrong but if you were to find a 2gb 256bit gpu or a 4gb 256gb gpu the 2bit gpu would have a faster memory transfer rate correct?

i'm not entirely sure i understand the question.

[pdv789]

I am just a little confused about the 'bit' when it comes to a video card. I understand that the 'bit' is the band that the memory has to travel on. My question is would the memory be faster traveling across the 'bit' if it was a 2gb or a 4gb. I understand that the 4gb has more quantity than the 2gb but would that also mean that it is faster than the 2gb?

technically there should be no difference between a 4GB and 2GB if the memory controller is the same. like if you had a 770 2GB and a 770 4GB, the memory bandwidth would be the same because the bus width is the same.

the memory speed should be the same. it can just buffer more textures.

so the other day i upgraded from a 8350 running at 4.3 GHz to a i7 4790K and heres what i got. is it a good improvement i think it is 

 

8350

 

 

i7 4790K
