Nice. :toast: I've got the same card, lol. I've got it running 1370mhz on the core with only one click higher voltage adjustment from stock. I love this card.

Yeah the gigabyte windforce cards look fantastic.
Have you had any success with overclocking your card to 1400mhz?

Adding some benchmarks for a little fun friendly comparison Funkengreuven are going to be having. Feel free to get in on this everyone. But here are my (video card completely stock runs) for Metro 2033, 3Dmark11, 3Dmark Vantage, and Heaven Benchmark 3.0.
Settings:
Heaven and Metro 2033 were performed @ 1920x1080p on the highest settings possible. (Everything enabled) 3Dmark11 and 3Dmark Vantage were done on performance settings.

Here they are..... post your stock video card runs and overclocked runs.... I will be doing some overclocked runs tomorrow.

Stock Clocks 3 Way GTX 680 SLI /+-0/+-0/+-0 1058 Core / 1502 Mem CPU = i7 3770K @ 4.5Ghz

Haven't yet, but it's only another 30mhz, so I'm sure it's doable. Might try it tomorrow if I get a chance. It's late tonight...

@20mmrain: 3dmark11 and 06 wont post scores and crashes half the time with a system info error. I wonder if its a dx issue? Idk.

see if this works.....

Q: I have issues with the SystemInfo scan at the start with 3DMark 11 – how do I fix this?

A: First make sure you have the latest patch installed – available here.

Alternatively you can try disabling SystemInfo scan by unticking “Scan SystemInfo” in the Help tab but do note that any results from such a run cannot be saved to 3dmark.com as they are missing information on the hardware configuration.

If you are getting a complete system hang during SystemInfo scan, ensure that HPET is enabled in your BIOS settings. SystemInfo requires HPET (High Precision Event Timer) to function. Also ensure that your motherboard BIOS is up to date.

Or you can try this one I found for 3dmark06

Hello,

This is my guide on How to solve the 3dMark06 System Info Error in WinXP 32-Bit (Sorry, I know this is not a question but I could not a find a better place to post this than here). Sorry, I do not have Vista or Win7 available but I belive the fix should be similar. If not it gives you good grounds to find a solution on your own.

I have seen many posts on this problem around the internet dating several years back, as well as on the Futuremark forums(Futurmark to my knowlege has NEVER provided a comment/solution on the problem) and not one of these sources were able to provide a complete solution or more than guessing and shots in the dark. Maybe you will have better luck in your searches but I thought I would post what I learned here, a complete solution.


- Here is the error

The cause of this is because somehow or another the services needed to check your system info were disabled.

Here are two different ways to solve this and the steps to solve this issue:



First - The Short Method (Workaround)

- I have not tried this solution because I found it after fixing the problem, I prefer to use the second method because I wanted to solve the problem and not work around it.

1. Right click on the 3DMark06 icon and type " -nosysteminfo " to the end of the path in the shortcut properties.

- It should look like this: "C:\Program Files\Futuremark\3DMark06\3DMark06.exe" -nosysteminfo

- Please Note - Solving the problem this way will disable you ability to upload your results to ORB(Online Result
Browser). ORB is a benchmark based hardware-focused online service that allows you to make performance
comparisons between your PC and other PCs from around the world.



Second - The Long Method (Solution)

- First to confirm this will indeed solve your problem. Open the Run Box (Start / Run) and type " Msinfo32 " and hit enter.

- The System Info tool should open with an error displayed " Can't Collect Information - Cannot access the Windows
Management Instrumentation software. Windows Management files may be moved or missing.

Here's your solution:

1. Open a Cmd Prompt (Start / Run / Type "Cmd" hit enter)

2. In the Cmd Prompt type " CMD /K SC QC WINMGMT " hit enter.

- You should get a list near the bottom of " DEPENDENCIES: " for the WMI Service "Windows Management
Instrumentation"

- Make a note of all the dependant servies and close the Cmd Prompt.

- Microsoft lists these three services below as being required for WMI Service to run, but checking as above is just to be 100% sure.
- - - Event Log
- - - Help and Support
- - - Windows Management Instrumentation

3. Go back to Run (Start / Run) and type in " Services.msc " this will bring up a list of all the services on your computer.

4. First find " Windows Management Instrumentation " and make sure it is running. Should say " Started " and if not,
right click it and hit " Properties " change the startup Type to " Automatic " and click " Start " just below.

5. Now use the list of dependant servies from Step 2 and find each in the Services list.

- If any of the services on your list from Step 2 are listed as Disabled/Manual/ or just does NOT say " Started " next
to the name right click on the service and hit " Properties "

- In the properties change the " Startup Type " to " Automatic " then click " Start " just below and do the same for all
the sevices on your list from Step 2.

6. If you want to test the solution go to (Start / Run) and type " Msinfo32 " and hit enter. The System Information
program should pop-up and show you the details of your computer.

7. Start-up 3DMark06 and everything should be Ok form there.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The list of services I had to enable on my PC are as follows:
- Event Log
- Help and Support
- Windows Management Instrumentation

In my case I had these services disabled to lower the amount of services running in the backround to free up system resources.

This is just a guide I made because I thought it would be helpful to someone out there. Be aware this is just for Windows XP 32-Bit, I do not have any other OS to test this on. I am not responsible for any problems that this guide may cause do to misunderstanding or miscommunication. This solution may not work for everyone, but I am certain that it will work with others that are getting the same error as I was in WinXP 32-Bit.

I hope this helps, and happy benchmarking.

See if either of these fix your issue.

The last thing I would try is uninstall reboot and re install the programs.

Jesus some nice runs you have there! I will do some 1 card only runs tonight. To see how a 680 stakcs up. Because that 670 you have there is a beast.

And a 1 or a 2 min run @ 1400mhz..... I don't think my card can get that high. I think that highest I have had one of my cards is 1342Mhz.

Nice job man! :toast:

I'll try at 1400, but I actually got better scores at 1240 than 1300. Idk why.

I'll try at 1400, but I actually got better scores at 1240 than 1300. Idk why.

So here is a single GTX 680 Reference @ 1324/1701 with a P Score of P10869 and a GPU score of 11083. This was done with my cpu @ 4.5 ghz. I feel that my score is stalling because my CPU is actually starting to hold back the overclock. I get this idea.... because of watching the FPS during the benchmark. In areas it looks like it is being capped @ 60fps and I know it is not because of V-sync. I may try to up my cpu overclock and see if it does make a difference in the GPU score.

Very nice.

I got another 48 points lol. 25 more for GPU.
http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/4183447


I'm having a conundrum. If I OC any higher my score drops by like 1000 or more points, even only 20mhz on memory or core clock. Is that normal or no? because It's still stable, it'll get through the benchmark just fine, just lower frames. Don't know why

Hello! I am new to this fine 6xx Club, I just got myself a Gigabyte 670OC.

I installed the Gigabyte OC Guru software and like it's simplicity, but it does not interact with Logitech LCD screens or as an transparancy, and it's Ctr-F1 shortcut does not work here.
MSI Afterburner is just fine but a bit boring after using it from it's first version...

Now a question:

did anybody find the TIM (thermal paste) on the Gigabytes to be bad or not well applied? I didn't check and I am curious... (my temps are very good, but in the past it was my standard check, this time I was to anxious to play with it)

In areas it looks like it is being capped @ 60fps and I know it is not because of V-sync.

I have the same problem. Wondering if its the drivers doing it or whut, gameplay is fine just interesting.

Lol I moved to an nvidia surround setup. I wasnt sure how two cards were going to handle the max resolution plus a minimum of 4x aa. Plus isnt that being an enthusiast is all about :)

Amen! I test these cards for a living so I'm constantly swapping out. I just went from an HD6990+HD6970 Trixfire setup. Talk about noisy! These GTX680's are near silent even at full tilt!

I am having the stuck 3d clocks issue on a single GTX 680.
After leaving a 3d program, the card does not return to 2d clocks.

I have made sure to set mouse program, web browser and anything else to adaptive power management, and it will not cease.

Rebooting is the only way to fix it.
