**Official 3DMarkVantage thread**

Cheers Gregster more ponts for OC.net!!!

You know bud :) Nice one.

Thanks for the add Gregster, I'll post back with iGPU disabled in BIOS as Vantage seems to have the same problems as 11 with detecting MVP. Not sure why MVP makes little to no difference to scores in Vantage, whereas it makes a huge difference in 3DM11.

No probs. I wanted to do a MVP scores on the 3d11 thread but it is quite full already :)
 
Swapped scores around and great dedication 8 Pack. You have a passion for hurting weights and computer parts.

Great score mateeeee and sorry for the mess up but I was hanging so bad :(
 
Just a small clarification, the CPU was at 5.1GHz in that last score I posted. Great thread you have here too, gregster. :)

Cheers :) I added the same CPU score as the last and as it is closer to 5.2Ghz than 5.1Ghz, I round it up to the nearest (keeps everything a little tidier). Thanks for submitting :)
 
Come on man you cant be still hanging over!!! My CPU speed is incorrect on my Single card entry!!! It was 5620 for CPU and 5670 for GPU.

me thinks you cant handle the grog bud!!! says me who does not drink!!! wimp I know!!!

It says 5.643 on your validation? I have always rounded it up (keeps it tidier as we can't use HTML code).
 
For this bench I normally use the 100 strap multiplier.

You can score a tiny bit more on graphics using the 125 strap and raising the bclk a bit to around 129 but most of the time I find it is not worth it as it makes the system unstable.

I found the 125 strap and bclk was the sweet spot for me. I wasn't stable enough on 129 and 100 just didn't net enough points on the GPU.
 
The problem with raising the bclk is it effects a lot of stuff line the PCI-E slots and puts more strain on the IMC.

8 Pack showed me something interesting the other day, when running 4 cards benching, use PCI-E 2.0 not 3.0

This sounds crazy but it works, it makes the CPU more stable @high overclocks as the CPU has less work/stress with PCI-E 2.0, I find even though the cards are running less efficiently they still get more done due to the CPU running more stable.

It makes perfect sense. PCI-E 3.0 will deffo put more stress on the cards because they are working harder (or should be). In a 4 way configuration, I could see 2.0 coming out better but in a single card, 3.0 should be better.
 
I run 1.495V for a stable 5Ghz (1.34V for 24/7 4.625 clocks). I have naff memory that won't budge past 2333Mhz with slack timings but it does net higher scores than at tighter 2133Mhz stock settings.
