my 7970 flashed to Ghz edition likes to say hello! running eyefinity now on 3xDell P2210s (1680x1050) and would like to upgrade to a 3xDell 2712H.

All graphics solutions that involve cards are allowed in, including mobility graphics. Integrated GPUs are not.

You shall be added.

I wish I had read the many forum posts scattered throughout the internet about this before I bought the pair. Anyway, I think I have a pretty good card and I maxed out the CCC memory clock limits on the stock BIOS. I flashed the BIOS to the release BIOS with the very high CCC limits, and I have been running stably at these overclocked settings for two days with no issues. Any higher clocks will cause programs to crash. I was surprised that increasing the voltage doesn't help at all, but after reading others' experiences it seems that this clock wall is not unique.

Your 7970 shall be added, if you still posess those other cards I will add them too.

You will be added as well.

I upgraded from a 6670 to a 7770GHz. Loving it.

[Chevalr1c]

I adjusted the list and moved you from the 6xxx section to the 7xxx section. Your User CP still refers to the old card though.

Thanks, I'll change my System Specs

[Chevalr1c]

Okay guys! Sorry for the delay but the "Massmark" has been started! If you want to participate, you will have until December 1st (not extremely precise deadline, btw). See OP.

[dude12564]

Joining with my HD 5450 - it's out on loan to a friend ATM, so can't get the benches done.

[Chevalr1c]

No problem

I added you.

[dude12564]

Thanks

EDIT: My button broke, i'll give you one when I see it.

[Super XP]

Sapphire Radeon HD 6970 and loving it.

[Chevalr1c]

You were already added when you entered the club.
Or did you forget that you joined already?

[RCoon]

Subbed with my newly installed XFX 7950 DD in crossfire!

[Chevalr1c]

Welcome, I added you.

[Kaynar]

Hey I could join with an XFX 7970 BE DD (old bios with unlocked voltage, unlike recent xfx cards).

The only part I didnt understand/see is where do I submit results of the 3 tests? (where do i submit the filled excel file i mean)

[Chevalr1c]

Fixed an issue with the spreadsheet, so that everyone can comply to point 6 in the guidelines (first document). With other words, you can fill in your username and computer number (just give it a 1 if you only benchmark one configuration) now in the spreadsheet, column A.

Welcome Kaynar. I will add you to the List of Members.

The spreadsheet will be saved automatically, so you can fill in the data directly into it. Google Docs magic

[agent00skid]

Was about to put it in, when I couldn't find anywhere to put a name. :P
(Was it the right way I did it?)

[Kaynar]

alright, done!

Damn I had some extremely loud coil whine in Furmark i thought my card would explode (had that since day1 in 3d apps)
I had to run Unigine 4 times (to make sure it was ok) cause the first time i run the benchmark I had a spike that took minFPS to ~24. The next three times it was all good. I guessed that the values you want for the separate 3dmark GT test results are in FPS cause that is the only thing i found.

[agent00skid]

I was thinking that making all the fields left oriented would make it more clean to look at.

It seems like you did it right.

You filled it in correctly too. The graphics score of about 10k seems quite high, but then again you have an extremely powerful card.


BTW, I filled in the sheet for my system as well now.

I don't know how it could get like that. I have never worked much with Google Docs so I will have to check whether there is anything I can do about it.

A stock 7970 should do around 8300. The stock version of my card (running at 1000/1425) did 9100 with older drivers. With a total 20% stable OC (1125/1500) it is logic to get 15% better performance (i.e. over 10k), esp. since catalyst 12.11 boosted the card by ~5-10%

[Chevalr1c]

Indeed.

[james888]

Finally got my 7970 replacement after the RMA.

4.5ghz 2500k with 1200mhz 7970 on 12.10 drivers.

I will do a proper test with the guidelines in the OP soon.

Oh, OK because I don't see my name on the list

[SonDa5]

Me and my water cooled Sapphire HD7950 950mhz edition would like to be in the club.

Will do the benchmarks for the spread sheets ASAP.
