This is using my cards at stock, cannot turn off "GPU Boost", so they OC dynamically based on the TDP, but I didn't adjust anything else, except for the CPU clock for comparison's sake being at 4.8Ghz:



EDIT: Just realized the picture I uploaded was for a run done at 4200Mhz instead of 4800Mhz for the CPU, this new screen shot corrects that error and should provide a more fair comparison to the VGA OCd results

Nice score!

I'm getting two new 680s when availability stabilizes, i'm using my EVGA Step Up from my 480s, I have a question for you, I take it you're using two PSUs to power your four cards, I've never done that, can you tell me how to synchronize two PSUs? Thank you very much!

And once again, great score mate!

Hello,

Thank you for requesting a free High-Flow bracket for your GTX 680!
We have shipped your bracket on 3/29/2012, via USPS from Brea, CA.

Enjoy your new card - game on!
I was able to score the free brackets!

@15th Warlock, you just need a Dual Power Supply Adapter to run two PSU's.

Thanks MetalRacer, I've been contemplating this question for a while now, as I'm in queue for my step up as inventory is very limited right now, but I'll get this adapter while I wait for EVGA to send me the new cards.

Thanks for your help

So over 11000 GPU points for an HD7970 at 1125MHZ? Im confused...
According to my test on a 3960X based testbench a single HD7970 at about stock gives around 7700 GPU score, about 8800 at 1125MHZ.

@15th Warlock

Don't necessarily need the adapter. Can do it by combining pins 14(green - pwr on) and 15(black - ground) leading from the mobo to both psu's.

I thought this bench was supposed to be run using default driver settings, that's how I run mine every time, am I wrong?
