8Pack becomes the first person in the world to break the 9000 point barrier in the Unigine Heaven benchmark DX11 using the “Xtreme” preset.
Scoring a total of 9029.14 points using three AMD Radeon R9-290X cards overclocked to 1200/1675MHz on the GPU core & memory respectively.
Previous attempts from other overclocker have landed short of the venerable 9000 point mark, with the closest score being 8947.25 points. It is safe to say that 8Pack is now worth of the “over 9000!” meme.
