TechPowerUp GPU-Z 0.5.8 Released

Lol, I have two of the worst cards of the bunch. It could explain my really high power consumption.

GTX 470 #1: 50.6%
GTX 470 #2: 58.0%

I guess NVidia really needed to sell the worst chips when they created the 470.
 
GTX 470 with an ASIC quality of 36.6% (currently the lowest in this thread I believe), clocks to 810/1900 at 1.075V.

GPU-Z 0.5.8 seems to be reading my pixel fill rate wrong - 5.5 reads it fine.

When did you buy your 470? I bought my 36.9% in June 2010.

I've gone over my quota of explaining the fill rate thing, so I will let someone else do that.
 
The lower score was introduced in a prior version and is supposedly a more accurate reading, but I've heard that fermi's fill rate is actually variable once you enable AA.
 
I bought my 470's in April of 2010, just after they were released. The 58.0% one is a MSI rebranded one built by NVidia while the 50.6% one is built by MSI.

I bought mine around October 2010, getting 85-90C with MSI Kombustor at 60% fan speed with an ambient of 23C.
 
If I understand this all correctly, Higher the % just means more likely to have a higher OC, It's doesn't mean your card is going to die.

Thanks I was thinking it was sort of a "wear level" measure :)
 
ASIC Quality 63.7%. For a premium GTX580, I believe that is somewhat low, no ?
 
Just ran the test on my 560 Ti Twin Frozr II/OC: 100.6%!

I'm flattered, but I feel like the calculations might need some tweaking.

As a side note, I haven't pushed the limits of the card (or felt the need to), but the stock VID is 0.987 V.
 
Support for the 6XXX would be awesome. I would interesting to see how the 6950 vs 6970 compare and why you can unlock some 6950s
 
My Asus GTX 580 Direct CU II is 68.6%, and it will not OC past 885MHz core (not 24 hours stable anyway).

I don't think Asus cherry picks the GPUs for this card, it's just good at cooling.

Bit disappointing to have the confirmation like...

:(
 
@ W1zzard :respect:

I cant find any good Info about what ASIC actually is..and how i need to refeer to it. Also less% means higher leakage and mroe % means less? is that right?

Heres a screen of my mighty GTX460 :):nutkick:

I really would appreciate more Info about this ASIC thing..

Thank u very much Wizz....looking forward to it :)

hmm, I could do 900MHz core @ 1075mV. Currently running @ 850MHz while undervolted. The chip won't run past the 900 no matter how much Volts I add though :(

It's funny though that this same card had an impressive OC of 1.5GHz!!
 
so is this the chips binned across the entire gpu series because i tried a 4 cards

GTX460 768 40%
GTX460 41.1%
GTX470 59.5%
GTX580 98.2%

You could be restricted by the shaders..... I assume you have tried unlinking them from the GPU speed? Assuming of course you still can with the 580.

Ha yeah with LN2, and still probably a lucky one. Should have got a Twin Frozr :(
 
Why new version use crappy MS Sans again instead of Tahoma in 0.5.7?
