You can clearly see that as well as Crossfire, it is also using the HD4000 chip. Antime this is shown, I will have to class it as another GPU. The only way round this is to disable it from the BIOS.

Sorry for being tough on this but I had it enabled on an old Z68, I5 build and it seriously gives better scores. I am not saying it is being used in your case but whilst it shows, I have to do the same for everyone. :)

That doesn't mean it's active.

Usually it shows in the settings.


Virtu MVP HyperFormance Active: false
Virtu MVP Virtual Vsync Active: false

Hence why the Secondary GPU shown as the MVP is 0MHz.
 
That is how it showed when I had it enabled on my Z68 build. Even when I used it, it showed as 0Mhz. It is not something I am going to argue over. If I see it, it will be marked up as another GPU.

It also clearly shows the processor and GPU usage on the iGPU as Zero mate. ;)

Virtue MVP when used, is listed in the settings tab at the botom mate. I have never had it installed on my machine as I am told it simply doenst work with trifire and causes headaches so its disabled in my bios and software has never been installed. The HD4000 is the integrated GPU and a totally different thing technically as its part of the i7 3770 CPU, and MVP is just software.
 
OH THAT!
that's showing because its enabled in the Bios, Mines enabled to allow me to plug my other monitors into mobo to stop my GPU from staying at max clocks...

I wont be adding any more scores to this, Purely because you think the HD4000 which is showing as inactive is helping in anyway.
Z68 boards are 100% different than Z77 boards mate.

I pushed my cards as far as they could go and felt it wasn't worth going further. I am hopefully upgrading again soon (Titan specs have me hanging) and will give it a serious go then :)
 
All scores updated and I have edited the orginal post to reflect the use of MVP. My apologies to anyone who this affected and hopefully this is quite clear now.

Again, sorry for the confusion and thanks for your understanding.

Great to see so many scores entered and looking at the seperate card GPU scores only, we need a few more entries in the 670's - 7870's - 7850's - 660's. Good luck guys and remember, it is just a bit of fun :)

Gregster mate, i should be in the the top 10 Graphics scores for 7970s.

You regret taking on this responsibility yet? :p

I will sort it sorry bud and it was my fault for not being clear from the start. I should have been more specific. :)

All good fun.

Where has my score gone off the list? :D

Also I increased the GPU and memory via CCC and got a lesser score, why is that?

Your score shows that VirtueMVP is used (check the first post). I have had to alter the rules slightly and sorry for the confusion.

I can raise my core clocks and complete the run but score less. This is because the OC used isn't stable. Add a little more voltage and this should increase the scores.
