Ashes of the Singularity Bench

Thread updated.:)

I think the thing to remember is this is a very unfinished game/bench so things sometimes won't work properly and there will be surprises and bugs.

The build will change as the game devs move forward and if this changes the way the game performs we may need to start a new scoreboard for future updated builds.

As to the settings used I suspect there would be problems with whatever settings were used but I think we need to be open to reviewing if we need to use different or additional settings in a couple of weeks time.

I think the best way to look at this bench is as a bit of fun and not to be taken too seriously.:)
 
oh, ok, so please tell everyone here who are running those clocks, to overclock more. Please. FFS, if your precious nvidia clocks much higher, why would everyone run this bench at minimum(according to you) overclocks?
They are free to unleash the power of overclocking aren't they?
Fury oced? at stock voltages? please :D

All I'm saying is that 1400-1450mhz is as easy an overclock to attain on a 980Ti than 1100mhz is on a Fury.

Either way ignoring overclocks.. what happened to AMD's "DX12 advantage"? from what we've been hearing constantly this past 2 weeks about asynchronous shaders and how AMD will gain massively from DirectX 12 compared to NVidia, here we are with the first user benchmarks and it's pretty much the status quo so far with Fury 20% slower at 1080P and probably only closing the gap at higher resolutions. I think most 980Ti users were probably preparing for their cards to be 50% slower in this game with everything they've been hearing the past couple of weeks.

Why as what's mainly been talked about is async compute and the developers have said they only use a modest amount in this game. At stock clocks there is nothing between a gtx980ti and a fury at all resolutions in dx12. The same can't be said for 1080p on the majority of other games. Dx12 in this game has boosted AMD and not Nvidia with only a modest amount of async compute used. From the very start the first benchmarks showed that gtx980ti and Fury were neck and neck.

Most can't run their TX's much higher than 1450MHz on air without throttling or putting in loads of voltage. If they could they wouldn't be running or benching at 1400MHZ.

I think it says a lot when a FuryX at 1100MHz is matching a TX at 1350MHz.

It isn't though is it, a FuryX at 1100 is getting 31
A Titan at 1400 is getting 36 so a Titan at 1350 would be about 34/35
The titan would need to about 1200-1225 to get 31

And let's not make this about FuryX vs TitanX on price, because the 980ti is around the same price or cheaper than a FuryX and over clocks even easier

I am all for postponing this bench thread until the game is in beta so it may be more consistent.

Likewise i would be all for review sites stopping benching this game as it really has been a wash of misinformation this last few weeks.
 
Andy, we don't buy high end cards to run 1080p ;) please stop insulting high end with this mobile phone resolution :P
And I thought your score is void, since some magic is going on on your end ;)
And for your info, couple of FPS here or there is matching performance ;)

nvidia fanboy: 1100Mhz on Fury x is much easier reachable, since this is 100% possible OC for everyone without any volt mods ;) What do you do when you clock your titans and tis to 1450mhz range? Well, you don't do nothing, since you just talk, but other use voltage adjustments. And as said before, if higher clocks were possible, people would bench at those clocks. But until then, all your talk is just talk.
Also, all the user tests are with different CPUs, different clocks, different NB clocks, RAM speeds/config, OS config. Andy has his CPU clocked 300Mhz higher than mine, who knows what his NB is clocked at, Kaap's cpu has two more threads, and since this benchmark loves CPUs, well you see where I am going.

Kaap, would you mind adding my other results run with different clocks? Please. Since this thread was basically started due to some people wanting to see differences while OCing GPUs. Don't forget 300Mhz run as well :D

My 980Ti hits 1450Mhz on stock volts other 980Tis can get hit 1500Mhz on stock volts. Its not hard at all to hit these sort of clocks without touching the voltage.
 
For clarity, there was no voltage adjustment on my Titan X runs. Justpicked a number and ran it. And when people are claiming overclocks are not fair on a site called "overclockers", this to me is so funny. Having owned and fully played with a Fury X, even with voltage tweaks, it will not clock much past 1150Mhz for the most part.

Anyways, thanks for updating Kaap and do what you feel is best. I remember doing the Star Swarm bench and got nothing but grief from AMD users, so good luck :)

My 980Ti can do 1545MHz on stock volts, but it didn't like doing two runs back to back :p

1560 with a bit of voltage added was a lot more stable.

Is this game actually good? I wouldn't really want to pay $45 for something just for a couple of benches.

Wait for the game to come out.:)

Benching is it's main use at the moment.

One of my Ti's hits 1570Mhz but I don't like to run the FuryX boys noses in it :p :D

But is it bench stable though? Or is it like one of those CPU overclock skyhigh, boot into windows to take a screenshot, and then be done with it? :p

Also is the default cooler actually capable of maintaining those speed without throttling? Or do people have to spend extra on coolings for those speed?

Different apps seem to be more or less stable. Ashes seems to frequently crash but at lower temps / useage than Heaven or Fire strike. I can do 1550 for Heaven but the best I've managed on ashes was 1503 which was a lower score than 1480. (If I set my fan to 100% my GPU doesn't go over about 60C)

Thinking about it tends to happen on scene changes so I might try kboost

Witcher destroys any form of instability in your GPU overclock.

Valley tends to let me run higher than Heaven in terms of synthetic benchmarks.
 
Right lads, knock the clocks down to make it fairer :D Of course I am joking but my TX is 24/7 1420Mhz and benching threads should be about completing the bench and not giving 2 hoots about anything else. When I game, I very rarely overclock anyways.
 
I have sli, so for gaming I tend to run around 1450 and keep the temps down and fans around 50-60%. I could game at 100% fan as I have headphones but if my wife walks past my door she whinges that its noisy even though from our room she can't hear it :rolleyes:
