GTX 670 post your boost clocks / OC / benchmarks Hello, I got myself 2x gtx 670 gigabyte OC windforce 3 on launch day, got them the day after. Please post your boost clocks as it seems these gtx 670 are crazy. I had msi gtx 680 reference design and it was boosting to only 1084 or somthing. Vendor Gigabyte Model grx 670 OC windforce 3 card 1 boost clock: 1202 card 2 boost clock: 1176 I didnt feel the need to OC yet but i add + 26 to the second card so it get to 1202 like the first one. I also add + 100 memory to both for gaming. stock single 3dmark 2011 P score 9133 http://3dmark.com/3dm11/3428931;jsessionid=riatrjxtr1rx1a058buful6hx stock sli 3dmark 2011 P score 14454 http://3dmark.com/3dm11/3397335;jsessionid=hf1wifrzuaw91fotzbatclp3y stock single gtx 680 3dmark 2011 P score 9087 http://3dmark.com/3dm11/3189748;jsessionid=1evd8606u9lt4q0bnboe49ctu These cards are crazy i get a better single card 3dmark score than my previous gtx 680.
Nice but why is Core clock 705 MHz - Memory clock 3004 MHz displayed on pics? I would've expected it to be Core clock at least 980 MHz - Memory clock 6008 MHz :s I understand that the memory is double data rate, so it doubles but what of the Core? can you kindly explain =) (sorry if this already may be common knowledge LOL) I have pre-ordered an ASUS GTX670-DC2T-2GD5 TOP http://www.guru3d.com/article/asus-geforce-gtx-670-directcu-ii-top-review/2 It comes with Asus TWeakIT app. which was used in hilbert's review to OC. however he's has also used MSI Afterburn on some asus cards, stating more reliabilty/stability and features. So are such apps cross combatible? Can I use them both and stick with the one that has the most desired outcome? what OC app(s) did you use on your MSI GTX680, and Gig GTX670? Does Gig come with their own app.? ty in advance, cheers m8 PS. did you encounter Vsyncstutter/fps dropouts on any of the cards? which is the soaring topic on the net
Im not sure why it isnt displaying the right spec, 3dmark detection engine is fail. Base clock is 980. I use evga PrecisionX just for the look of it, Afterburner is the same thing. And they are compatible with all the brands. I havent encountered any problem with my sli yet. I played Bf3, witcher 2, trine 2, diablo 3 and some other games. good luck with the asus top :/ because they are rare sku and there is a limited number, i had a gtx 680 asus directcuII top on command for more than a month and i decided to go for 2x 670.
1200MHZ with boost clock and 6600MHZ memory, at 1250 I got no artifacts but I did get a display driver has recovered drop out in 3DMark11, the memory also test fine at 7000MHz but made almost zero difference in anything so I backed it down a little. Its a fine card, have the MSI OC version.
what driver are you guys using? My MSI 670 seems a bit unstable im using the 301.25 that came on the included driver CD.
I just ordered a reference gtx670. What stock voltage overclock can I expect? +125core and +250 memory? Aks 1040base clock and 6508 memory. Also how agressive a fan profile do you need. Does thr card need to stay under 70c.
I got my GTX670 ;D;D;D;D;D;D Absolutely stoked. +75 core, +200 memory. Ran about 8 runs of Heaven @1080p extreme tess, 8MSAA. No errors, no crashes, no visual glitches Same again with +100 core and +300 memory. But the problem is that Heaven heats the GPU up to 70c even with max fan speed, so it wasn't really testing at the max boost clock. So I started to bench in Farcry 2 on ultra with 8MSAA at +125core + 350 memory. It's 100% solid at +125 core and +350 memory. Max Boost Clock: 1289mhz I haven't had any crashes, glitches or otherwise in any testing and It's been at 99% GPU usage for the last hour. I could try for higher but as far as I'm concerned I won the GPU lottery and I dare not ask for more. I've surpassed my best expectations..so now on to the fun part...gaming. Crysis 2 maxed out with MaldoHD runs between 55 and 60 frames in combat, usually closer to 60. But enough of e-peen, of to play a decent game, like the Witcher 2 EDIT: I just benched Hard Reset to compare it to hilberts review and a stock 670 gets 79 frames maxed with 4FSAA, I just benched and got 92.5 frames with my overclock. Pretty massive improvement. I can only imagine what a few driver improvements could do.
I just ran a bunch of benches with +165 core and +450 memory and they all passed without error but both the benches ( Hard Reset ) and Just cause 2 ran in the mid 90 frames so I stopped seeing returns as I went up because of a CPU bottleneck. I'm installing metro now so it will put the load back on the GPU to test further. I got a green flash ( small, like a blood splatter ) in The Witcher 2 but I used to always get that with my GTX480 and I'm not even sure if it's a GPU problem or game/driver problem. I've been playing crysis 2 all day absolutely maxed and 99% GPU usage constantly so I think if there was a problem it would have already showed up by now. EDIT: Did more testing at +165 core and +450 memory. Passed heaven with extreme tess and 8AA. Passed Metro 2033 bench in DX11 very high with advanced DOF and 4MSAA. Played several hours of the Witcher 2 and it went perfectly. I tried for +500 memory earlier and got my first crash. I went back down to 450 but I might try 475 later as it might work. Some of my results.

Proof of my OC. Afterburner overlay knows the score.
Really nice OC, what is ur core running at with turbo boost on + 165 ? Can u post a 3dmark 2011 P score ?
Boost is 1328. It's on the screenshots in the overlay. I don't have 3D mark 11. I can post a heaven bench if you want. Here's the result, and the next two pics are screen from while the bench is running to show the 1328core boost in action. I just checked the Overclockerclub gtx680 review and it got 47 frames at those same settings. Which means my 670 is running faster than a stock 680...pretty awesome. I'm downloading 3dmark 11 now. Will post my bench soon. EDIT: I realised I had hyper-threading off from testing if it was the cause of stuttering in Farcry 2. I re uploaded the new results once I turned it back on. Performance score Extreme Score
Hi, guys after almost a month I finally got my asus dc2 TOP edition. my pre-ordered TOP, that actually was delivered at 15/5, was the regular dc2 (without TOP OC) , and they woulnd't take it back without proper RMA jeez (I never used RMA before) The price was a steal tho at 402.50eur incl.shipping. I drove 100km (60miles) to personally bring it back intact, still awaiting my refund. the weird thing is they didn't even sell the regular version, and were asus officially authorized dealer in netherlands. Shame can't even confide in author. dealers ;( I've finally got one from good old alternate (also author. dealer), where eventually got it in stock at 1/6 and due to supply/price thing going on I paid 460eur, that's 60eur more, but finally I GOT IT ;D But let's continue topic here http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=363348&page=2 since it's more recent, I'll soon be posting my benches there cheers m8s ;D
these cards rock,everything runs like butter,so far only clocked it to +140core an +440mem,ran a few benches heaven does heat it up,ill have to get some scores
Here's my stock settings bench My card boost to 1202Mhz at stock http://3dmark.com/3dm11/3571691 My overclocked bench http://3dmark.com/3dm11/3578966
In my setup, first card achieve 1340 + and second 1280 +. Both rock solid stable. They can be pushed further, but i'll leave that for autumn-winter, as now ambient temperature is too high. I've got two beasts :cheers:
My card tops out at 1306Mhz and ram 7000+ This bench is 1300/7000 [/IMG] Just got my cards board power increased from 250 - 300. I got a 150% power limit. I had 125%. I haven't installed the bios yet. Nothing but voltage increase will help, I know that.
Aww I'm sad guys. I'm not even able to increase the core clock at all from the FTW stocks. It boosts to 1176 by default and I can't even force it to 1200mhz without crashing driver. I always been out of luck with overclocks...
