@Kaap or anyone with dual, whats the easiest way of testing a single card?

All I do is disable SLI in the NVidia control panel and if the mobo allows it, I turn off the other PCI-E slots.

Scoreboard updated.:)

Edit

If you are watercooling multi GPUs, when you turn off the other PCI-E slots (and cards) all the cooling used for 4 cards is available to a single card which is a nice bonus. Better still if you are benching from a cold start up the other unused cards work as a heatsink helping to keep the temps down.

thx, dont have that option on my mobo like on the rive, so obviously my top card is the hottest but my bottom card has the higher asic and can clock that bit better, which way round would you put them????

Best card on top for single and dual card benching. The top card if faster can carry the slower card a little bit and sometimes you can get higher clocks off the slower card.

On the RIVE the top card also gets to run @PCI-E x16.

Cheers Kaaptain :D

Had a right old benchmarking session in the early hours this morning and these new 13.11 drivers seem to have a nice performance increase all over for me. Catzilla seems to be a bit hit n miss on my CPU as same clocks was quite lower than my previous bench so im probably gona leave that one for now :)

I will have to give the 13.11 drivers a go when I get the chance.:)
