NEW - 3DMark 11 Compilation

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

 

fixed my post

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!

Also:

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

I cant get tri cf to work on my Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD5-B3

anyone know why ? i can get 4870, 2x4850 to work to work in tri cf but not these 7970's

 

22845 Graphics score? Thats gotta be three HD7970s...
Or else, what kind of sorcery is this?!

 

It's two cards LOL look at MR score with 2600k

 

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.

 

did you turn off tessellation ? and set everything to performance ?

 

Then lol on you sir...

 

thats how how you bench why run it stock settings


when i game i set everything to max quality

heres with everything defualt in ccc thats why 680 is still faster if it had where you could turn it off AMD would look more like a mid range card in 3dm11

Question what are you turning off to make such a big difference in scores???

 

This:

 

Thanks but I don't see how these settings are helping him.... I have tried higher clocks then him... and have not got a score as high as 18K with almost an exact same setup. I'm confused how he is getting that score with 2 HD7970's Water cooled and a i7 @ 5ghz I would like to know his settings

 

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

 

Stock speeds for everything:
