Nice score dude.

I can achieve a similar effective (core) clock speed in this one (since I repasted using LM) so hoping I can improve my (graphics) score a little bit when I get chance to rerun it again.

Cheers mate , unfortunately a case of CPU letting GPU down once again but will be same old story until i upgrade next year :cry:

Graphics score is where it shines due to not being cpu limited in that test, i was surprised i could get the clock so high and remain stable but with DX11 stuff does seem to be a bit more forgiving than dx12 and allow higher clocks :)

Good to hear you have switched to liquid metal as well , it certainly helps pull as much heat from the core allowing it to boost a bit higher and remain stable only issue is may have to ramp up the fans a touch to get rid of the extra heat now being passed to the heatsink but i imagine when benching they are flat out anyway :D

Your graphics scores are certainly not being held back much if at all tbf.

I did notice that you can clock much higher in this Vs Timespy or Port Royal. Can barely do +200 in either of those but I think in this I can do +270 or higher.

Yeah i doubt i will gain anymore on graphics although the switch from pcie 3.0 x16 to 4.0 x 16 may gain 1 or 2 % ... where it gets hammered currently is physics and combined score , 13900k is double as is the 7950x pretty much , no amount of overclocking will get me anywhere close :cry: All good though i know its limitations :D

Yeah from my findings anything that runs in DX11 is a lot more forgiving for clock speed and in general will be able to push them higher than DX12 titles like Port Royal , Timespy etc ... Firestrike and Heaven are DX11 are can get the clocks higher and remain stable . Not a chance i could get PR or TS to complete at 3165Mhz more like 3090Mhz for PR max and 3135Mhz for TSE .For this run i had the FE up at +340 on AB which resulted in running at 3165Mhz at 42deg :)

+340 Jesus wept. FE cards are clearly the better bins.
 
Only on DX11 stuff mate no chance on newer stuff then its down at like +290 . Also as yours is an OC model it will be at a higher bin from stock so your +270 will be like +310 on mine give or take :)
Ahh, interesting didn’t consider that tbf. Stock boost on mine is 2610Mhz rated, but it starts out at 2740Mhz at stock. An earlier GameRock I had (returned due to one of the fans failing) would do 2820Mhz at stock, but would not go as high overclocking.

Yeah on the FE stock boost is 2520Mhz which results in 2835Mhz/1.1v @ 40deg in game which it will hold solid and stay locked at . My previous Zotac oc was 2535Mhz stock so just a 15 Mhz bump from FE but when in game would boost to 2850Mhz/1.1v , was a while ago but i seem to remember clocking that to +310 on AB which resulted in 3135Mhz :)

Interesting. This was at stock voltage for 2740Mhz, I’ll have to see what it runs at 1.100v for comparison.

at stock voltage mine boost to 2760Mhz BUT this is because its so cold at 40 deg , if i let it warm up to 50 odd it will drop one boost bin to 2745Mhz :) I need to actually do a test and find out what exact temps it drops boost bins at , it 100% drops one between 40 and 50 but not sure where the next one is .

Sounds similar to mine then. I thought it said 2740 but maybe it was 2745 and I’m mistaken.

I monitor effective clock speed too but notice that is usually 40-50mhz lower than actual clock at stock.

@Kaapstad Result will be hidden until 3DMark get off their behinds and add the 7900 XTX to their database. It will turn valid when they do.
