Right after a lot of digging I seem to have found the problem. My CPU is not boosting at all.

After wrestling with the bios I do have it boosting now but not to where it should. Apparently this can be a bios issue so there's little I can do about it. I have got it boosting to 3300mhz now but it should be doing 3400. My ram is XMP at 1600 which I suspect may be the issue here.

Put my score up for now Greg but I'm aiming to sort it out. I should be getting a much higher Physics score once it boosts properly.
 
View results online button does nothing... (well about 5 minutes later is opened a million tabs trying to upload the results and failing) benchmark was uninspiring anyhow - even 3D Marks 2001 was better.

Lol... Thats you clicking the View results online button a million times while it wasn't working :p

Hammering the left mouse button to death? Work work work you ### ## #### ## # #### ## # work Now! :D
 
^^ Knew someone who'd post that :D - I only clicked 2 maybe 3 times tops. Nothing happened so I forgot about it. About 5 minutes later it just started constantly opening new tabs in my browser trying to upload results til I task killed it.


EDIT: Probably because the first time I pressed the button it didn't "debounce" properly and visually stayed in the depressed state for several seconds until I clicked it again.

Go ahead and add my score dude. I'm only getting 30 more points now any way so CBA pushing on. The demos are driving me nuts too lol
 
On air with 24/7 clocks with no optimization etc

You have my Physx score wrong, it should be 8731, i also need to be bumped up a couple of places, currently in 24 with 5605, should be in 22 where 5572 currently is :)
 
Ok, I think that is all the scores added. I didn't add your triple card score TB because of how wrong it was but if you still want me to, no problem.

Thanks Humbug for spotting my errors (and I am sure there is a few more), so if anybody spots anything, please be sure to let me know.

Big thanks again to all for entering.

As for suggestions, I reserved a slot for which I may well just do GPU scores and ignore what CPU is in the machine. As we are on a GPU forum, I feel this would be a good thing. Any thoughts on this guys?

Another suggestion was linking to the post that people have put their score in but I feel it is quite a pain adding a link to the 3dmark score, and adding another link will seriously make it hard work for me. I don't mind doing this and again, let me know what you guys think.

As for custom coolers, I can't see much point when so many cards come with decent custom coolers already. If people want to lie about what cooling they are using, that is their choice (and I don't see why they would).

Any more suggestions are welcomed.

Other thoughts I had are:

Use Fire Strike for all GPU's
Use cloud gate for a mid range cards (maximum of a 660TI/7870 (non XT)
Use Ice storm for older gen cards (580/6970)

Good or not?
 
I cant get this to max one card out and can't get it to run crossfire at all.

my score single card is like 4.5k and 17k phys

Upgrade perhaps?

Only joking but something not working for sure. TB with 3 cards had a horrendous score (3K iirc), so maybe something linked to that?
