GTX 780 Owners Club

Nice core clock. Only 93% board power too!

I can get mine to peak 106% power on valley with +190 core (1189) and +520 on the memory +7Ghz.

If yours can pull the power limit its going to fly!

Sweet card you have there.

I only see one higher 780 clockspeed in the Heaven thread, and I presume that card is under water... either way extremely impressive chip you've got there.

Thanks, I'll have to do a lot more testing, I only did one run, if it's not fully stable, it's not very far off - maybe 5Mhz, well from previous experience. Better than the review sample's at Techpowerup, and Guru3D anyway. :D

I've got Valley, 3D Mark 11 to test, I'll run some gaming benchmarks to, once I've tweaked the memory.

I bought a gigabyte & its very quite, its not the best looking card but it cools the chip to 67c, mine is the OC WF3 ! Stock boost is 1168... Haven't overclocked it yet ! Gigabyte's support for me has been very good but I hear EVGA is one of the best !

Your GTX 780 Windforce is better at stock than mine - Max Boost was 1097MHz at around 71 °C - not using full HAF X cooling yet at the moment, what is the ASIC Quality of yours? Mine is 74.6%.

Will be good to see yours overclocked. :)

Had to back off my GPU overclock by +15, wasn't stable with multiple loops of Heaven 4.0, added +705 to the memory clock straight off, same as the highest clocking GTX 780 on Techpowerup.

Result so far - not sure if that's fully stable, but Heaven 4.0 doesn't crash.

I'll add some volts see if I can push it further.

2500k @4.8GHz
ASIC Quality = 74.6%
320.18 drivers
Max Boost = 1215MHz
Memory Clock = 3713MHz
Max Temp = 73 °C
Room Temp = 24.4 °C

My ASIC is only 67.3%.....however I can play Metro LL @ 106% boardpower and GPU at 1228Mhz boost OK. Oddly this is not stable in benchies but OK for games that use the same board power level.
 
Are you guys using stock settings on your drivers? Are there any tweaks that can be made in the drivers that affect the score? I leave everything in the control panel at default settings, i.e. what they are upon a clean installation.

Some scores on the leaderboard seem very high. There's one a 780 at stock clocks that's getting higher than overclocked 780s. How is this possible?

Is that my card. If so it's at stock clocks with stock boost. I have not bothered overclocking it as it crashed lots when I tried and TBH it does a good enough job as is.

Any idea why it's a fair bit higher than other scores, even the overclocked 780s?

Nope no idea. I think the voltage setting was at +35 for that run which bumped up the auto clock a little bit. Other than that it's stock as it came.

I have tried adding to the GPU clock but it crashes with a driver not responding message on heaven so gave up and have not touched it since.
 
Has anyone here got one under water? Any core clock increases over air when max OCed?

I've seen 680's under water that get an extra 50-100mhz. Not sure if thats legit or not
 
I'm considering taking the plunge on a 780 in the next couple of weeks (once I've installed my new mobo and CPU and sold my current FX-6300 and Sabertooth 990FX). Is there any consensus on which 780 is the best to go for?

Warranty wise check my thread here >> http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18231329

If you buy a Gainward graphics card via OcUK, the warranty is done via OcUK with a 48 hour turnaround, will update it later today to include Gainward, Sparkle, and Club3D.

ASUS have this coming out soon with custom PCB, poor warranty service though >> http://www.techpowerup.com/185484/asus-geforce-gtx-780-directcu-ii-detailed.html

Gigabyte have the GTX 780 Windforce, which I have got it's very good keeps temps around 70°C. EVGA have the GTX 780 with ACX cooler, also classified version will have custom PCB. MSI launching the MSI 780 Lightning soon with a custom PCB, I reckon it will be £650+

Can you guys use any other driver other than the 320.18?

I'll have a dabble tonight, 320.11 came with my Gigabyte 780 Windforce, I'll see how I get on with that, I'll test loads of games as well with the 320.18, and report back over the next few days.

I don't think any other drivers are compatable without editing the drivers.

Oh man I want one!

"On the back of the card, ASUS has placed three solder points for measuring and voltmodding."

Awesome, I'd love to see that under water!
