This score is VERY low!


A similar system...




@orson
What PSU do you have?

I think this is the problem.
Try Silverstone + 3× GPU and Enermax + board + 1× GPU.

no luck unfortunately, still scoring in and around 19k, maybe i should try reverting back to an old version and see what it scores

Higher, much higher

[orson]

Higher, much higher

tried with all versions now up to current, most i can score is 21555, still would of thought it would be a lot higher

Hi, guys!! The official website of Asus saw just such a card - MARS II
Has anyone experienced it possible?

[aussie-revhead]

Is that supposed to take our attention away from 7970?

[CryptiK]

Trying to keep that cool would be fun! It might be faster than a GTX590 which are POS that blow power fets when you look at them the wrong way, but faster than 2 GTX580's overclocked? No way. That one's for the fanbois.

+1 NOT faster than 2 GTX580

and i think that with 3 slots is enough crap, its like having a brick inside the PC man, we need better cooling solutions and slim cards, maybe that hughe card cools itselfs but such a big thing blocks air inside for sure

Is there any way to set "voltage at startup" with EVGA Prevision (EVTune)?

The "tick" on "run with windows startup just does nothing".

use msi afterburner

[Punisher!]

use msi afterburner

Nope I won't because it is well known it causes freezes with some games\applications.

well that aint true, i used on all my cards and that never happened most ppl OC and dont test for stability or do crap with software, i have SLI of GTX580 heavy OC'd and never ever had any freeze on the 20 games i play

either way u can always flash it

I didn't try more, i dont wont to burn my card :/

I have 2 msi gtx580, but the second card isn't stable on the windows (without load) 955/2004/1544 with any voltages (v1.213). lol

When I install Arctic Cooling Accelero XTREME Plus II in the first videocard (1001/2350/2002 | 1.175 V.) I'll try to overclock harder..

Any thoughts on 1.2v 24/7?
Anyone done it for any period of time? I have a Asus DCUII but it's not that great of a clocker, i need 1.1v just to be BF3 stable at 832/1664/2100, runs cool though about 55c.
@ 1.2v 975/1950/2200 is game stable temps about 65c...

on air??
Run metro2033 plz.

[Rattle]

Yes on air, at 832/1664/2100 at 1.1v in Bf3 I rarely pass 55c
Its a DCUII, I don't have metro installed cuz i hated it.

its ok, but vgpu 1.2 975/1950/2200 in Bf3 65c looks unreal.

I have msi gtx 580 lighting XE @975/2400(gpu/memory) vgpu 1.181 in bf3 ~ 81c (cooler 75%).

________

My reference gtx580 dead after installing Arctic Cooling Accelero XTREME Plus II and treads of hard overclocking :/

I know I was surprised too, been playing BF3 today at lightning XE clocks 832/1664/2100 at 1.088v and I seldom see a degree above 55c with fan at 50%.
Very pleased with this cards thermals, just doesn't OC like the greatest.

[gpvecchi]

Yeah, DCII cooler is amazing! I'm now running at 1000/2400 with 1.175V. Assassins Creed Revelation (full HD, no AA, all at max) heats it up to 55/60° with auto fanspeed (reaches 28% max).

[.fx]

Rattle can you make screenshot after 5 min run bf3 (msi afterburner) on vgpu 1.2 975/1950/2200 plz ?

[CryptiK]

use msi afterburner

or flash your bios. I dont even use overclocking software anymore as ive flashed voltage & clocks to bios.
