Having fun with my graphics cards at the moment, they don't want to accept any higher overclocks, and keep reverting to stock clocks!

But, managed to get a run in:

http://www.3dmark.com/sd/2190558

3DMark Score - 26032

Graphics Score - 56247
Physics Score - 7962
Combined Score - 16025

That's with:

MSI Z77A-GD65
Intel Core i5-3570k @ 4.2GHz
8GB GeIL Black Dragon DDR3 RAM
2x HD7950 @ 1200/1600
Windows 8.1

Fully water cooled.

Powercolor R9 290 PCS+ Overclocked to 1100 / 1400 +50% pl. (Elpida)
Seems to be highest I can go without touching vddc offset. While I can go up to 1120 and pass in 3dmark, some corrupted screens can appear and the score always ends up lower anyway. 1410 on the ram and I would get random flickery lines on the desktop. Strangely, I could get ram to 1430 before lines would appear on the old Opteron 180 machine.

Q6600 Air cooled @3600 (9x400) I wonder if i'm being held bottlenecked by this old cpu? :D. I do intend to upgrade the rest of the system before the year is out.

GFX: 36889
Physics: 4406
Combined: 10700

What i mean is you had to change all the numbers on the left hand side as Ranger moved up to first. Or maybe you have a better method for updating than i do lol. It's quite possible. :D

No, I had to change all the numbers on the left but once it's done it's done.:D


It would be easier if I used Excel but I am not that bothered.:)
