If you're maxing out the voltage on Trixx you can probably do 1600 on memory , try it out! And yes you really really should OC that i7 more if you want higher scores, whats keeping you from doing it ?

Still tweaking, getting a few BSOD so need to iron out the max CPU l can get. 4.8 not very stable

Graphics Score 15707

Physics Score 11839

Combined Score 6003

MSI GTX980 Gaming - 1499mhz boost / memory at 7820mhz (+405mhz), stock voltage

Machine - 3770k at 4.5ghz + 16gb of 1887mhz memory, p67 chipset

11th highest graphics score on a single card i think. Not bad!

 

[Gregster]

Scores added chaps

 

[Jono8]

Pretty impressed with this GTX 980. Highest overall score on my sli 670's was 11234.

That puts this card(overclocked) at 15.5% more powerful than overclocked sli 670's!

Also, Gregster you have put me as JonoB rather than Jono8

 

[Gregster]

Oops and will sort now. Yer, I honestly thought they were a bit meh but looking at the scores they are easily getting, they are a decent upgrade choice.

 

[Jono8]

Yeh, they are good cards. Probably not worth upgrading to from something like a 780Ti though.

Just need one more overclocked 980 in here to get rid of that Titan at no 15 on the air cooled cards

Haha, I would rather people put them on water and get rid of all those 290Xs in the top 15 The poor Titans have held their own for a a couple of years mind, so I am sure Geeman won't mind dropping off

Before I run this, what should I be expecting?

2600k @ 4.4
Two 290X's @ stock (under water)
16GB RAM

4.8 Ghz gave BSOD.
4.7 Ghz FS would not start, looks like a nice stable 4.6 Ghz is all she has got.
This R9 290P (X) is still full of surprises tho.

16-18k at a guess.

I have it bought through Steam, if I just run it at default will it set to 1080p? Just got 15157.

EDIT looks like native so 1440p.

Sounds like you are running at 1100(ish) on core.

I also run mine in steam, did not think it mattered?

Should be a default run of 1080.

 

[Gregster]

Bloody hell CEUOTC, every time I update the scores, you add another one. Stop it

Sorry, it was on 1080p.

Clocks are 1040/1300. Will try bumping them up.

 

[ChrisD.]

15900 at 1100/1450 core. 45 and 49 max temps, may try bumping the voltage and push for more core later on today.
