**Official 3DMark 'Fire Strike' Leaderboard**

Just noticed Greg, my 290X is below a 970 that got a lower score under Water cooled dual GPU:

15. 18869. GFX Score 26239. 970. Water cooled. Physics Score 13510. CPU 4770K @ 4.9 Water cooled - Amigafan2008 - Link

4. 18880. GFX Score 26643. 290X. Water cooled. Physics Score 13268. CPU 4790K @ 4.8 Water cooled - Bloodkil - Link

Not really a problem, just thought i'd point it out :)
 
Purchased an GTX 970 MSI Gaming 4G and I can get stable at these settings -

Sometimes crashes when doing Firestrike and sometimes passes it, this is what I'm scoring in Firestrike, sometimes lower sometimes higher.

If the image is larger than 1280 pixels wide please resize, link only or put in spoiler tags. Thank you.

Can't seem to get into the 11,900's or the 12k's been trying for hours, has the card hit all it can do ?

Also running a 4790k at 4.8, should I be scoring a higher GPU score at these clocks ?

Your physics score destroy mine and I get 12k, http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/4625155
if your cooling is good enough, push your gpu a bit, bump the voltage up a tad and try get a higher core, even 50mhz makes such a difference on the core, then find the highest stable memory clocks after that. :)

From the 3dmark score I linked there, iv scored 12,500 almost just from both my cores being at around 1270 rather than being at 1200 but I don't have the link, but its the core that makes the biggest impact not memory speed.

Sorry I forgot to link what my MSI Afterburner settings are

Can't push any higher on the core clock as it crashes the system or drivers so maybe am maxed out ?
 
How are the new AMD drivers in terms of benching? Any one know approx % increase?
