GTX580: 1.025VID: 950/1900/2300: stock cooler: guaranteed?!?

So Metro 2033 was 10 bucks on steam today so I picked it up for some benchmarking. Here are the results. SLI'ed EVGA GTX 580s Superclocked used with the GPU-Z /GTX580OCP command

Everything setting wise was set to max @ 1920 X 1200

Stock speeds 772 Core 2025 Memory

Overclocked 900 Core 2025 Memory 1.138V

Interesting results. This is fun! :up:

Thanks for the Metro 2033 test run! And the developers claimed it will use all features of your hardware yet the min and average is still super low.

I think its another next gen engine game waiting for next gen hardware. Only now Stalker and Crysis are able to run near 60 FPS with max settings on a single card!

I did not use water block

The settings image doesn't seem to want to work anymore, I will upload it again when I get home. And you're welcome! :)

@hetsaq - nice :up:

since hetsaq posted benchmarks of metro 2033.. last week i was thinking of doing couple/few vids of metro 2033+fraps+max settings@1080p and whatever other requested game.. but didnt have the time.. maybe later today if i got time.. youd see my 4.8ghz 980x sli 580 all air cooled system in action

if you guys would like to view such vids let me know

edited tri sli 580 out since i dont have proper 3way sli psu but heck ill include tri sli 580 as well

Napalm,

Please do run your great tests with Metro! I want to see how cpu limited Metro is with your setup! :D

265.90 kill combined test results or is it Sli setup?

@pinto sli setup


if you are on sli setup and 265.90 drivers just compare graphics tests 1-4

everything else all the scores physics test combined test are all outta whack

Where can i se the "vid" on my 2 gigabyte 580?

Yes I am noob :yawn:

Voltage :D The value it starts up at, before modding should be VID.... 1.025v for you :)

lol welcome mr nizzen :)

[1.000v] nice vidder :up: both ??

either way should be great clockers :toast:

after going back to dec 7 263.09 (37.xx fps physics) then back to 265.90 looks like graphics scores are fine.. linear.. i thought i saw 11xxx graphics score @ 263.09 but thats the physics score.. just the combined scores for sli setups needs fix

as for the graphics tests sli scaling is pretty awesome.. mirror to sli scaling @ metro 2033 :up:

I got 2 Palit 580s installed, the stock vid is 1000mv. I can only get to 850core (memory not touched) at 1100mv, anything higher and it crashes Heaven 2.1. Any advice? This is in a case, stock cooling, with a 1200rpm 140mm fan blowing in from the side panel, I'm after safe 24/7 stuff btw.

3D11 works now with 580 Sli

Just tested my MSI card (VID 1.025V) and it's horrible (stock cooling). 900 is bench stable......3D03 will run at 925MHz....but no more :(
Will test on stock water soon ;)
Will test on LN2 in a month or so :D

I'm in the same boat. My vid is 1.050v, and between 925-935 is where its stable. These gpus don't like going over 75-80c at these speeds it seems (atleast for me). Water I guess is the way to go.

you have to go higher than 1.100v+85% fan for 900+

you have to touch memory (1100-1150mhz) if you want higher performance higher core voltage helps with that too ;)

~1.125v 900/1800/2200 safe 24/7 stuff :up:

then again "safe" is in the eye of the beholder

good luck! :toast:
