Here's my cards running their usual OC (see AB pic). Not a bad score in competition mode. First run forgot to turn off frame limiter at 120fps! Score: 31467 Min 50.1, Avg 143.7. Noticed that there was a point where my GPU Bus was at 45% usage, that's quite high and I'm running PCIe x16 3.0. Sorry for folks only running slower busses! My CPU is 125 BCLK 4250MHz, 2000MHz RAM @ CL 11.
Why are you upping your BCLK to 125 strap ? ... for 4250mhz ? just up the multiplier, dont start use Bclk speed before you try to reach 5.5ghz lol... you should be able to use 45x -48x multiplier before change the voltage on a 3930K ...
It makes the overall bus faster. Anything over 4.3 just generated way too much heat, and between 100 bclk x 43 vs 125 bclk x 34, the latter always produced better scores even with RAM running at 2000 vs 2133.
if it run good for you good... We use BCLK just for fine tuning when we hit our max speed ( cant pass from 54 to 55x ).. but well we use different cooling it seems.
Every chip is different. Mine doesn't OC well without extra voltage/heat. My Noctua keeps the CPU under 70°C at all times. Anything over 4.5 or so was unstable unless I put in over 1.4v, and I just didn't want to do it. I could get 4.6, but temps and power weren't worth it. I code more than I game on it, and a fast bus helps data transfer.
Getting here for Ranked mode: 31723 Edit: Whoops forgot FPS. 4790K @ 4.7Ghz 780's in SLI @ stock clocks min FPS=44.5 Avg FPS=140.8
i have to say, i am very happy with my scores. My system is getting very close/ near sli 980s overclocked. 780 ti's are still performers!
This is with my computer siting a test bench will test this again once everything else is hooked up after stuff is done beign modded. Not bad in the least bit. woot woot.
btw min fps happens in last scene - in cave by Scorpion (has hairworks on its legs), only 1 particular angle has this fps drop, it looks to be mostly gpu bound location/scenario, cuda direct compute stuff.
No not this time I was at 4.9 thus was due to my recent whooops with new barbs. I had a leak. Slowly retesting stuff to see if its doable still. I got some bitspower 45degree rotory 1/2 compression barbs. well after rotating one of the ones on my cpu block a bit to much it loosed and leaked. Thank god the pc was off. I got 5.2 also in my phantom 820 where I had 6 fans in push pull vs just 2 fans atm. Thanks. Note when my gpu is at 8400mhz on the ram I do get some pretty crazy coil whine at times but its like the gpu turns into a speaker. Lol
i imagine i could go a lil further now with the gpu OCing, i installed a second performance 14cm front intake today (this one's a thermalright), shaved around 5c off my gpu max temps, or even more if i let it go full blast). ill try a few runs tomorrow and see if i can raise min framerate.
1440p test 4xaa, smaa, aa off 17,194, 18,339, 23,171 Other runs in the chart. What I would like to see in a future update is a breakdown of subscores like in the futuremark demos.
