Lol, I have two of the worst cards of the bunch. It could explain my really high power consumption.

GTX 470 #1: 50.6%
GTX 470 #2: 58.0%

I guess NVidia really needed to sell the worst chips when they created the 470.

GTX 470 with an ASIC quality of 36.6% (currently the lowest in this thread I believe), clocks to 810/1900 at 1.075V.

GPU-Z 0.5.8 seems to be reading my pixel fill rate wrong - 5.5 reads it fine.

When did you buy your 470? I bought my 36.9% in June 2010.

I've gone over my quota of explaining the fill rate thing, so I will let someone else do that.

The lower score was introduced in a prior version and is supposedly a more accurate reading, but I've heard that fermi's fill rate is actually variable once you enable AA.

I bought my 470's in April of 2010, just after they were released. The 58.0% one is a MSI rebranded one built by NVidia while the 50.6% one is built by MSI.

I bought mine around October 2010, getting 85-90C with MSI Kombustor at 60% fan speed with an ambient of 23C.

ASIC Quality 63.7%. For a premium GTX580, I believe that is somewhat low, no ?

Just ran the test on my 560 Ti Twin Frozr II/OC: 100.6%!



I'm flattered, but I feel like the calculations might need some tweaking.

As a side note, I haven't pushed the limits of the card (or felt the need to), but the stock VID is 0.987 V.

Support for the 6XXX would be awesome. I would interesting to see how the 6950 vs 6970 compare and why you can unlock some 6950s

My Asus GTX 580 Direct CU II is 68.6%, and it will not OC past 885MHz core (not 24 hours stable anyway).

I don't think Asus cherry picks the GPUs for this card, it's just good at cooling.

Bit disappointing to have the confirmation like...

@ W1zzard

I cant find any good Info about what ASIC actually is..and how i need to refeer to it. Also less% means higher leakage and mroe % means less? is that right?

Heres a screen of my mighty GTX460




I really would appreciate more Info about this ASIC thing..

Thank u very much Wizz....looking forward to it

lower leakege chips use higher voltages to reach nominal clocks that what higher leakege chip needs..

lower leakage = higher voltage
higher leakage = lower voltage

if you are a overclocker you want higher leakege (=lower voltages) chips..

hmm, I could do 900MHz core @ 1075mV. Currently running @ 850MHz while undervolted. The chip won't run past the 900 no matter how much Volts I add though

It's funny though that this same card had an impressive OC of 1.5GHz!!

You could be restricted by the shaders..... I assume you have tried unlinking them from the GPU speed? Assuming of course you still can with the 580.

Ha yeah with LN2, and still probably a lucky one. Should have got a Twin Frozr
