seems like you have just PCI-E Gen 1

coz GPUz usually say's x16 2.0

heaven screens show PCI-E x16 2.0

2095 pts in Heaven would be about right if you were running on a slow board (Hydra or active nf200).

Does gpuz say that under load? Could be power saving pcie link management.

really? hmmm, this is on MIVE 2nd PCI-E slot which I suppose would activate nf200. I will try top slot tomorrow thanks for the ideas guys.

getting better, top slot fixed the poor scores :X
Forgot to turn off AA AF and adaptive power saving lol oops, more ln2 tomorrow

thanks guys!

Power management mode: Adaptive instead of prefer maximum performance by accident in control panel. not sure it makes a difference though... i'll keep trying

thanks for the setting I was going nuts trying to figure out why GPUZ kept switching to 1.0 from 2.0.

also thanks for the DCuII it is working great

keep up the good work

Mine looks like this every time condensation accumulates near video outputs. I just heat it up a bit with a hot air blower and it works again.

fixed my issues

this is best clocks I could pull out of it today. Could only bench half an hour before too much condensation, very humid. Pot kept popping causing crashes but still good enough for single card WR.

no mods..just fun card to bench
