That's a great score, your getting some impressive scores out of your system.

Think some work needs to be done on the scaling.
Here is a fun one
Long ago before these cards launched I predicted to Humbug that @1200/1350 the card would score 1523. Humbug said just under 1500, I think 1497 to be exact.
This is what the card actually can do at 1200/1350
I was only 7 points out on my prediction.
Just playing games I cannot tell them apart other than the 780 is quieter.
If you already have a 780 and unless you are in to benchmark scores I see no point swapping to a 290x at the moment. I would wait until the 780ti and custom cooled 290x cards are available if you can.

If that temp was right it would be hotter than the surface of the sun.
A LOT hotter!
Epic score for #2 on the table. Why didn't you order the £30 Win8 upgrades when MS were doing them - I picked up 4.

Plus whatever Start8 cost me
Not sure about you but at the time it cost me £1.75 and i use it on two different computers. Well worth it. I think its gone up to £4.99 now though.
Faster performance for everyday use and game benchmarks.
Better FS scores and better performance in BF4. Thats what im 100% certain about.
BF4 performance increase isnt minor.
