dirt 2 benchmarks dx9 vs dx 11

is there not a program what can controls clocks and voltages for none msi 5850 cards... dont really want to flash the bios on my card for warranty reasons... but i'm getting rather peev'd at using 2 programs to overclock my card!

Catalyst can do the clocks only. You should get a decent clock through it without having to up +v
 
Seems to respond very well to the overclock, nice boost that

forgot to mention as well mate that in the last test i had not updated my drivers to the hotfix for dirt 2, so the bump in fps is due to both drivers and overclocking.

just ran the test again after fresh install and a few more overclock tweaks to the gfx card

1920 x 1080 8xaa ultra

avrage 70.9

min 47.7

Vsync off.

Unless your using xfire or some super-duper driver, there is noway your getting that average at max settings DX11.;)

exactly my point

to Average 70fps with a min of 47.7 you must be hitting close too 100fps during the game which, i'm sorry, is made up.

Not if the minimum framerate is an outlier. However, I only get an average of 76fps with an overclocked 5970, which is two GPUs with higher clocks. The average framerate looks a little high but wouldn't be unheard of given the variable performance of this "benchmark".
 
LOL wheres the benchmark with the exterior view, I average 80+fps with that interior view, so yeah with the interior view 70 fps will be right.
