Firestrike Standard Bench.

My 2500k is letting me down big time here!

Score - 16001
Graphics - 24349
Physics - 8137
Combined - 7542

That is with a 2500k @ 4.7 and my 1080 @ 2114/5557

Actually a very good score, when you compare you should use the graphics score not the overall score.:)

Don't forget to post the results link next time please.:)
 
4.4GHz is stable at 1.375v, but it's getting too close to 90C for my liking and the best score I've managed with that so far is 26000, so I think there might be some error correction or throttling going on that I'm not seeing in hwmonitor... Time to try 4.3

Happy with 4.4 @ 1.375 though... Looks like I've got a good chip as I'm seeing reviewers struggling to hit that frequency, let alone with that voltage :)

Can't wait to get this under water with my new mobo... I should crack the 30k barrier :)

Don't hate me.:)

@crinkleshoes keep an eye on your 6950X when the physics test is running as they can throttle a lot if they get a bit warm.


Score 30193

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080(2x) @2050/2778

Intel Core i7-6950X @4.4

Graphics Score 44011

Physics Score 27619

Combined Score 9392

Drivers 368.39

That's me done tweaking for today - 27426

MSI afterburner seems to keep a more stable overclock than EVGA Precision X which helped push the score up a little.

Found it best with CPU @ 4.3 @ 1.35V

No worries re: your score... with the new motherboard I will be able to compete with you. I've known there is something a bit off about this motherboard since I got it... but it's not something they would let me RMA it for as there's no apparent problem... just synthetic results showing a ~10% lower score than I should get.

I get the same with 2 different CPUs, 3 different sets of memory and 4 different sets of GPUs.

Oh well, as soon as my local supplier has the Asus Rampage V Edition 10 in stock, I'll be having it. I would order from OcUK... but it's £100 cheaper here!

I use afterburner too, I tried the latest version of EVGA Precision but it was very buggy.
 
4.3 @ 1.35 seems good... 4.4 @ 1.375 was stable.

What voltages are you needing?

What cooling? Is this with your AIO cooler or in your full loop system?

I've got a Corsair H110i on this but it's also in a low airflow case which doesn't help.

Looking forward to my new build... just the CPU arrived early :)

6950X @4.4 1.3v

At the moment the CPU has got the full loop to itself (3 x 480mm rads).
