3DMark Sky Diver Benchmark Thread

[Ian Evey]

Does skydiver use tessellation in any of the tests at all?

 

[win8.1]

Why is it that my 290 is always about ~5 slower that other 290's, where am i going wrong? Grrrr

@ Win8.1, atleast my £140 CPU is only 5% slower than your £260 4770K clock for clock.
I will take that away for comport from my lack of GPU performance if you don't mind, and i have yet to put faster RAM on my setup.

You can take the price difference in cpu as a comfort.

Faster ram will help reduce score difference.

Yes it does, just checked the default custom preset for Firestrike and Sky Diver and they both have tess level 5 at default settings.

My 2x SLI score at 24/7 settings:

CPU 3930k @ 4.8GHz
GTX780 @ 1183 MHz core
GTX780 @ 1150 MHz core

Score 40,560

Bizarrely with tri-SLI, even though all three cards are detected, my score is almost identical and GPU usage is erratic whereas with 2x SLI, both GPUs utilised near 100%.

. I should have noticed when I ran it really, especially the scene brought to life part.

Bench is borked for Nvidia multi card set ups

Allegedly, new driver releases next week

Crazy fun result

I used the default settings but increased the resolution to 2560 x 1600 in the custom settings.

^ Nice.

Loving your AMD themed desktop wall paper scotty. So proud of you right now.

Bet it looks pretty at 4K. I've never bothered messing about with the custom settings, but i think i'll have to give it a try.

I just couldn't seem to complete a run of this benchmark with any overclock applied to my 780Ti's memory. So instead of 1241/1900 as in Firestrike, it's running at 1241/1750.

Been clocking the Striker Platinum.

1330 boost and a ludicrous 7508MHz on the RAM, no artifacts either.
