**Official 3D Mark 11 scores**

Here my score with new rig,
Went with the AMD, can't help but feel it's letting me down big time as i'm happy with my score and it's running all the games i play great, but compared to Intel i could be getting a lot better.

Nice to see a 660TI enter the thread and a great GPU score to boot. I am very impressed with the score, as it does beat my stock 680. :)

Thanks Gregster,

I was unsure on the 660ti after reading the mixed reviews but now I have it I am really happy with the way it performs and glad I got it. :)
 
Is it the new 'ghz' edition one (1100 clock) or the original factory OC edition (~1000 clock) ?

If its the first one I'm very interested to see how they clock from that 1100 base.

How you finding the MSI Lightning? Might have to pull the trigger on one. Received the Gigabyte Windforce 7970 today and it's not really my cup of tea! also found a little defect on one of the cooling fins, so returning it under the 14 days satisfaction Guarantee policy.
 
Think ill crank up my i7 2700k later as i seem to be dropping out of the top 10 :( booohooo.

Hopefully ill be able to get a few 100 points.

Has anybody tried the new nvidia beta drivers ???

Love it, the cooler is possibly the best on the market, stock clocks it hardly breaches 55c on auto fan. 1200 core is almost a guaranteed minimum on these too, they were built for clocking. The only downside is the dvi is single link.

Kaapstad did say they gave him slightly less score with them :( 304.79 I am still using.

Ran performance mode as instructed in OP, nvidia panel default cept im using max performance instead of adaptive, nvidia drivers are 301.42 and my 460 is overclocked to 800 core, 1000 mem, 1600 shaders.

Well it cost enough lol. Thought i better upgrade now before my q6600 and 460 devalued too much more and lost money which would help upgrade.
