Picked up my GTX 1080 earlier today. After much benching of my GTX 980 reference card...and a lot of Jameson.....here are my results: (I have not overclocked the GTX1080 as of yet.) First off a shot of my Zotac GTX 980 compared to my EVGA GTX 1080 FE:
The 980 is a bit dusty...
This is kinda a real world test as this PC has been running without format for quite some time. This the every man's testing. I can reformat later and get better scores but whatever.
I first benched the GTX 980 at stock speeds. This is how I normally run my 980 as i usually do not OC my video cards,
Intel 6600K @ 4.5GHz & GTX 980 stock:
Valley GTX 980 stock: (my PC is a bit bloated and have not formatted since last year at some point. Score would go up on a clean OS.
Fire Strike GTX 980 stock
ashes of singularity (Same settings Guru used when benching the 1070/1080)
I decided to OC my GTX 980 tonight and see what she could do. I doubt I found my highest OC but it was stable and I went with it.
GTX 980 OC Core: 1387MHz- Boost 1476MHz (Memory: 1878MHz)
Fire Strike GTX 980 OC
Valley GTX 980 OC
I forgot to run Ashes my bad but I'm not tossing the GTX 980 back into the PC and OCing it at this point.
Installed the GTX 1080, ran driver cleaner before hand. Like I stated: I have not overclocked this card yet. I'll take that on tomorrow night.
Stock GTX 1080 FE:
Valley: (Updated after adjusting nVidia control panel settings to the same as Guru3d uses for their testing - here: http://www.babeltechreviews.com/overclocking-gtx-1080-precision-xoc/2/ ) Score rose up from 4503 to 4408 @ stock speeds.
Ashes benchmark:
Fire Strike: (Updated after adjusting nVidia control panel settings to the same as Guru3d uses for their testing - here: http://www.babeltechreviews.com/overclocking-gtx-1080-precision-xoc/2/ ) Score rose up from 16780 to 16854 @ stock speeds.
So a nice jump but will be better if I format and start over.
I will continue with the OCing later this weekend.
Ok so I've been playing around with the overclocking and as of right now I'm settled at the following:
2075 / 5433 and so far it hasn't given me any issues. Ran loads of tests for stability and bench marking and so far so good. I'm quite happy with the results. At no point during my OCing did the card crash or show any irregularities during benchies other than when I pushed the memory to +450 I did start to get lower scores in the benchmarks so I backed it down to +430 and the scores rose up again. So I think 5433 is going to be my max memory OC. The core on the other hand seems to be able to go higher but to keep temps in line I decided to keep it at +200.
I was having issues with afterburner, as in it doesn't detect my card so I couldn't use it for overclocking and had to use EVGA's precision tool instead. I've not used it before but it worked awesome. I did a manual OC as I heard the built in scanner dealio causes issues.
Also it seems GPU-Z does not detech my cards OC at all. No changes show up in it. I figure it needs an update to work properly with the GTX 1080.
So here are my results so far.
