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