Right, time to go through the last 2 weeks and update all the scores that got chopped off and add the new ones.

All scores done and awesome score Parabellum on those volts. Send me your card to give it the once over please? 
My memory is bad and my last back up was on the 30th
I thought I hadn't done it for a week or more.
Edit:
Nice score Besty and the fastest 7970 on OcUK's FireStrike bench

Not a cat in hells chance
But again good advice from you guys steering me in the right direction... really good community here with good people always on hand to help out
So I need to upgrade my cpu now as im a few cores short
I am a big fan of EVGA in truth and can't recommend them enough. I wouldn't send me my card, let alone your card
As for the CPU, it isn't worth doing for benching and your CPU is capable of far more. LtMatt is the 2700K hero and hopefully he will give you some advice.
...
Im not done here until i get my top Tahiti score back
Ill be back.
That's what I like to hear
Yer, I have updated and backed them up but it just will not save them all. This is doing my nut in
Edit:
I think it has done it now.
Would be kinda humiliating for the GK110 master-race scholars to be beaten by us R9 290 commoners
That would be funny and made me look at scores. It shows you as having a 1000Mhz core and a 1250Mhz memory, any reason as to why? But when I checked your 290X score, you had a 1245Mhz core and a 1625Mhz memory
Zpaf a little further down has a 1255Mhz core and a 1625Mhz memory
I am not calling foul play but that doesn't make sense to me.
Yer probably. I looked through a few scores and clocks seem messed up.

That is the biggest problem. That card is top of the single card hall of fame in firestrike.
Lol wtf.
It is so easy to cheat and something needs doing. HWbot allows tessellation modifications, so it isn't cheating as such.
Still, I give credit to the people who have posted scores here and honestly believe they are all genuine
I can run my score again with Tess off if you want, i promise it will beat your score though.
EDIT
I thought 3dmark protect against this anyway?

There is always ways round it.
Well i don't think its too much of a problem here. You seen oc.net? Half of us would not even get in the top 100 over there. They allow tess disabling and other tweaks.
Yep. When I first started the 3DMark11 thread, it was done with trust but in reality, it would have levelled the playing field to allow tessellation modifications but I was a bit green then and I would still like to have the test done "As it was intended". The idea was to show your results and let people compare their systems to see if anything was wrong but it ended up as a hell for leather thread instead.
I know how to modify 3DMark11 to alter the LOD without FutureMark knowing but that isn't something I would ever do or contemplate doing, as cheating has never been in my nature and top marks to all the people who have posted results, as at no time have I ever thought that people were cheating.
The ridicule would be enough
I have absolutely no idea but I believe it is Radeonpro that is needed. nVidia use nVidia Inspector to alter settings without getting caught or should say in allowed modifications
Looks like ill have to reinstall it then.
Seriously edit your post man. Don't let people know how to do it.
Why? If people wanted to cheat, they would but the people of OcUK are better than that.
It's all cool bud I looked into it on several scores and they are all different when using a different BIOS.

Added (again). The site keeps chopping scores, so I had to back up from an old one and possibly missed yours, sorry.
If anyone else is missing, please let me know.
Nice score Gee
nVidia can handle Tessellation far better than AMD because they have a tesselator on every SM, whereas AMD don't and they use a dual geometry engine on the top end cards. You would have thought they would haveimproved on that from the 6 series but they didn't. Maybe costs? Die size? Gawd knows.
I was running my Titan in games with the colder weather and fans were running very low (~400 rpm) and temps never went over 40c Prolonged would see them creep up of course but for a quick 30 minute game, that was it.
The 780 shouldn't run as hot a sa Titan either, so I can see temps being great this time of the year with a cooler room.

The hottest people are up there beating and competing with water cooled £1000k+ gpu's, using nothing more than a reference cooler and a pair of gpu's costing £560.
I see what you did there
