3D Mark 2013 FireStrike and TimeSpy Guru3D Records

*yawn*

 

any particular reason you wont provide a link?

 

Yes, there is a reason.

 

ill admit, im impressed you can clock that high. all the same though, im still not impressed with the cpu on the whole. like i said, it does ok in some things and terrible in others. which you know.

my cpu does ok in some things and really well in others.

i could go higher but id need to adjust my cooling a bit.

 

Guys heres my first run



Not sure about them, do I need to run the 13.2 BETA 5 drivers? Looking at some other scores mine seem off for CF6950s

 

You are a very poor loser.

Nice run man...I'm using beta 5 atm they seem great

 

Cheers, I've just downloaded them, do I need to run a CAP with them do you know?

Ok re ran the benchmark with 13.2 BETA5 and what an Improvement in Fire Strike!



Just need to get those 6950s OC'ed again

 

No the CAP is included from what I understand....

 

I am on his side, not that i have something against you but considering an 1100T scores 8500+ at 4Ghz i feel disappointed of the FX series.

 

Still doesn't change the fact he is a poor loser.

What bench did you get 8500?

Yes I agree BD was meh but PD is an improvement. FWIW I also have a 955 @4.4Ghz and it's slower than my 8320.

Btw I should add that I was happy with my 955 but someone offered to buy my old rig, I used that money to get this one.

It's not my benchmark, I can't run the test yet on my PC, maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
My 'problem' is that now i would pay for an 8320 slightly more than i did 2 years ago for 1100T with almost no performance increase (and serious regressions in some areas). I really expect after 2 years to get a better performing (by a moderate to large margine) product for the same money.

 

Must be a driver problem maiby nvidea wil bring us better drivers ?

 

I think you're being a bit negative; the 8320/50 is faster than the X6 in every benchmark I've looked at. It's also twice as fast as my 955 when encoding.

I can understand why you aren't impressed with PD after looking at your link, that is quite a nice score....

If I hadn't sold my old rig I'd still have my 955 and prob woulda waited till Steamroller, (though 2014 is a long way away) I stuck with AMD partly because Intel mobo's are extremely expensive in NZ and also I can upgrade easily (Steamroller will likely use AM3+)...

is it running at 6008 ram? just add +500 offset and run it again.

 

No. That was jsut a test run at 4.7GHz. It passed with out BSODing on me. SO I think my CPU is good to go now. I will work in upping the memory clocks in a bit.
