Awesome score frosty and that has completely smashed my thoughts on the 980 being a pointless upgrade. Very nice as well Reece and water with a custom BIOS will be very interesting.

Incredible score frosty! Well done bud and cheers Greg, just need more voltage!

I don't want to butter it up and say "yer it is a great score" because I know you can take it

Haha, that's cool I wasn't expecting to be smashing records as I don't have my CPU clocked plus this PC has a lot of junk installed lol.

Just retried with 200 core still but the RAM now at 2GHz:

Bit of a pointless update as it doesn't change my position: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/4182167

3770k @ 4.6ghz
GTX 970 @ 1584/2030

Very, very nice indeed

Cranked my CPU up to a dirty 4.5GHz to see if that helped any:

Nice. Makes me wish i went for the 980's instead.

Your 1 980 has beaten both my 970's even when clocked.

2 970's @ 1478/2030
5930K @ 3.8

Something not right there. My 970s got over 20k graphics score and I only had them for an hour.

 

[Captain]

Not sure, here's my GPUz and AB settings.

are you really running it that low?? Get it ramped up!!
Edit: CPU i mean

 

[Captain]

CPU? I Have no idea what i'm doing when it comes to clocking CPU's That 3.8 is just the first XMP profile in the BIOS.

whaaaaaa

What cooling do you have on it??

 

[Captain]

whaaaaaa

What cooling do you have on it??

Atm i have a h100i on it, idle temps are around 28, maxing out @ around 75 now.

You should manage 1.32v on vcore, try that and a 44 multi and run again.

Or wrap some frozen bacon round it, almost pmsl when I read that earlier mate.

 

[ramdrive]

First attempt with my new GTX970:-

http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/4183285

CPU & GPU both air cooled.

Was unstable, couldn't boot into windows with x44 multi, will try 40 first and get that stable.

Your telling me you've not tried it?? Cooler temps and an insane smell!! Whats not too like?

Was unstable, couldn't boot into windows with x44 multi, will try 40 first and get that stable.

Also up your uncore volts a little which should aid stability(apparently)

Also have a read https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bz2VRRbLPrZnYjlVR2kzYkVvMFE/preview

 

[Captain]

Followed that, now @ 4.2 with 1.2V Cheers

 

[Captain]

Haha, now @ 4.2 my score has dropped by over 1000 points

2 x 970 @ 1478/2030
5930K @ 4.2

Your gpu clocks?? Is futuremark not reporting properly?? Because in this run there 200hz lower on the core and your ram is like 250 hz lower, did you click apply??

Your physics is getting better

1st sli run 1,339 MHz Memory bus clock 2,030 MHz

2nd sli run 1,114 MHz Memory bus clock 1,753 MHz
