**Official 3D Mark 11 scores**

You bought a 670 for £239.99? I'm guessing it was second hand or B-grade then. Only thing is that my 7950 cost me £239.99 brand new, and that scores higher for GPU score here than any 670.
B grade,you won't get used one for 239,99£.
Yeah hd7950 scoores higher in 3dmark11,but you didn't now that when you bought the card.How long new drivers are out,few days?Happy for you;)
still would choose gtx670 for that price it was a steal
hm on the charts gtx 670 i still ahead of hd 7950 in this thread???

Yeah i know but for some reason the changes were never taking any effect until now. I never did figure out what was wrong.

Was you using GPUZ to check voltages? As GPUZ would never read out anything but idle and stock voltages for me despite voltages actually being changed (used the read outs via multi-meter).

Yea i used that and Kompbuster. Oh and the voltage monitor graph in afterburner but it would always read stock volts. My clocks were stable at 1120 on stock volts but even when i pushed it up to near max it would still crash.

Since then afterburner shows an increase in volts and my gpu can run at 1200mhz. Iv tried it at 1230 and it runs 3d mark vantage/11 and sleeping dogs fine but any higher and i get crashes nommatter what i seem to put the volts too. Im happy with that tho :) .

Look on the GPU only scores at the bottom of the first post (only accurate way to directly compare GPUs since P score is affected by CPU speed) and you will see only 7970s and 680's higher than mine- no 670's to be found :)
Plus, mine has the full 3 year warranty as opposed to 90 days.
 
Nice :)

Had some strange going-ons last night, tried a run (for graphics score) at 1340/1900, all the tests ran fine, at the end of the combined test it just black screened, managed to get task manager open which told me the 3dmark11 workload had crashed?

Undecided if its 12.11 related or not.
