My 680 hit its limit at +180, it seems a few others have the same limit, I would like to know how many are able to bench higher than +180.
Also, I heard an 850w psu is enough for two of these, can any of you with two 680's confirm this?
I was hoping Ivy would be the next benching adventure for me but water results dont sound good ..... :(
:up:
i get artifacts on my stock heatsink at 210,
200 is ok but i like a little more security than that, so my 24/7 is currently 175
EDIT: i wish the card was able to push more volts, every test i run only uses 120% of tdp and so 132% seems like a moot point unless im running furmark
hey buddy how are you ? my SLI does +200 / +540Quote:

please share the EVGA SC or SC+ bios
PS: backup with the latest nvflash.
Seriously, I want that bios.Quote:

just for the info.Quote:

at first only my upper card did +200 after i start using slowly and shooting 3DM11 she would do it, and also if you are on SLI the best is NOT to use SYNC, something's bugged and cards would not do the same synched...Quote:

So does that mean that when guys work out how to bypass the thermal monitoring or force constant voltage that max clocks will increase? Or is that basically what kingpin and co did for that world record LN card? I guess that's something that can be addressed with non-ref models when they come out.
Something to look forward to maybe
:)
update: my card is going back as defective
i was noticing that at almost any memory OC i would see an artifact every now and then, and then while in windows the screen went all green and it did a permanent crash (no driver recovery) and now i get artifacts everywhere, even in motherboard bios, and the card cannot be recognized by windows. so doing a replacement as defective with newegg.
That sucks man especially if you have everything setup for water cooling, I always run my new hardware on air until it proves itself worthy!Quote:

i did, and saw the same exact problems where artifacts happened at almost any setting but never really crashed unless i pushed the core. at +600 on the ram it definitely had issues so i quit but it never caused a crash. the only difference on the waterblock was thats when it just totally gave upQuote:

as promised, unigene scaling at a number of different speeds
right click and view image if its not full size (site shrinking images is nice, but i wish it had options for those of us who dont want to)

what i did was put in a light OC onto one side as i scaled up the other. so all memory overclocks were done with a 100+ on the core, and the core was done with 300+ on the memory.
there were a few times where the scores jumped higher than they should have, however oddly there was never a time when it was under the very clear scaling line. except when i overclocked both the core and ram, where its OCed 18%, but only got 14% faster
for the 2 right columns with % values, i took the average of the OC to ram and core. so if core is 0 and ram is 10%, its actually listed as a 5% OC, and as you can see the combination of both almost scales perfectly with the games increase.
enjoy
anyone here with the evga hc?
I'm running Crysis 1 with 4x MSAA, 4x transparency SSAA, a few texture mods, POM, 16x AF, and a tweaked autoexe.cfg so that I see next to no popins on a single card and still averaging around 60fps. I'm impressed. That config alone eats 1.5GB of vram at 1080p.Quote:

did you try Maldo for Crysis2 ?
Yeah, I've just been using adaptive v-sync. Performance isn't consistent enough with vsync so the framerate jumps around for me. Have you tried just forcing it from the control panel?Quote:

yes the guy should be hired to work at Crytek he modded 1k textures, added tessellation and lots of stuff...see pics aboveQuote:
