It does seem to make a difference :D

Thanks again Kaapstad

Chris

And on the scoreboard.:D:)
 
Not exactly where I'd hope to have been but here we have it :P -

Score 10221 - http://www.3dmark.com/fs/695626

7950 (1) - 1200/1425
7950 (2) 1175/1575 ( I know this card can go higher on the memory (up to 1700) but completely forgot until I was posting my link ops :-s)

2700k @ 4.8 Ghz

Score of - 10221
Graphics score - 12616
Physics score - 12135
Combined score - 3842

That's been the best score Ive gotten so far but I wanted to do a small experiment firstly so I've got a few results to share for people who are curious about the performance hit from both a cpu standpoint and from running the gpus at different clocks - see below if interested and be warned it may very well me TLDR for many -

I'm not going to post any links to my scores for this basically because they are lower than my above score and are just for people who were like me and wanted to see the difference certain settings had on performance (if any), if anyone does want the links just ask and I will add them it :)

So I started with all stock clocks cpu (3.6ghz turbo to 3.9),gpu1/gpu2 (925/1250) and ended up with a score of 9661

decided to then up the ante and run my CPU at stock while running both gpus at 1175/1425 (highest core clock gpu 2 can achieve and highest memory clock gpu 1 can achieve, so wanted to see what score I'd get with the gpus both running at the same overclock) and ended up with a score of 9907

Then wanted to test out what amd have on their webpage regarding GPU clocks as they state the cards will clock down to the lowest settings of the 2 cards (why I had ran both cards at the same clocks earlier to see what score I'd get and could then compare it to the different clock test), running them at settings of - gpu (1) 1200/1425 and gpu (2) - 1175/1575 this time I got a score of 9919

So the score difference was negligible and well within a margin of error, looking like the cards do indeed revert to the lowest clocks of both cards, one final test, I'd still been running my CPU at stock settings, so beefed the CPU up to 4.8 Ghz while keeping the previous clocks from before of (1) 1200/1425 and (2) 1175/1575 with a score this time of 10221 ( my highest score so far and the one I linked at the start), now obviously the reason for the higher score was a big jump in my Physics score, however I did gain just shy of 100 points to my graphics score suggesting that maybe the cards dont down clock as advertised on amds' website and that my similar scores before were due to my CPU holding them back, another issue that I only realized while typing is that their only ended up a 25mhz difference in core clock and 150 mhz difference in memory clock, which wouldn't amount to a substantial performance gain if both cards were running at full speeds? (originally planned to have a greater difference between both cards so as to make it easier to see if they were indeed throttling down but somehow managed to not do this :-? lol)

Sorry for the long read (to anyone who actually read this far) but wanted to share some of the tests I did other than trying to get the largest score out of my system

Many thanks - Doco.
 
Me again :) - so got a new top score, decided to do a few things different this time, I knew I could achieve higher memory clocks on my 2nd gpu (higher than the maximum 1575 most allow you to hit), so I loaded up the HIS software that comes with the HIS cards (personally think its a pretty nifty piece of kit), and decided to select my 2nd gpu and apply an over clock, however I encountered an error about disabling ULPS before I proceeded any further, quick google on what it was I had to disable and I was set, theirs an option for it supplied in the HIS software, and on this same panel I noticed an option to "Syncronize cards in Multi-GPU config) currently enabled, so for good measure I disabled it and returned to my original goal - settings this time were:

7950 (1) - 1200/1425
7950 (2) 1175/1675

Very good increase there

Score updated.:)
 
I had a go with the 13.8 beta and I broke my dual-gpu record (19618) but for some reason the combined score is lower :(

Anyway.

My single card score : 9464
Physics: 16475
GFX: 10521

http://www.3dmark.com/fs/735793

I did a three GPU run at GHZ Edition clocks (1005/1500) for reference.

My three card score: 17802
Physics: 17403
GFX: 25565

All tests done at 5.0GHZ.

Do you have a link for the 3 card score if you want it used.:)
 
Yeah, its not bad and it actually looks smooth now due to the frame pacing working.

Locky's setup can run 1250 in tri-fire so, keen to see a score from his rig to see how it matches up against the 680's.

PS. Whyscottys three card Titan score is world ranked as #4, well done m8.

I would really like to see what locky can do on this and also there is firestrike extreme too.:D
