Thought I'd post my score aswell... ;)
I'm wondering why w3bbo (his score on the first page) has a higher score than me when I've got higher clocked 470's, weird. :confused:

Higher clocked memory, CPU? Although this is generally GPU based, a highly clocked system will generate a couple of FPS, its not just about GPU power.
 
Just had a blast at this with the rig in si 470's clocked to 825 on the core and 1800 memory



Didnt think it was too bad, beat a lot of 580 sli scores :D

Could i be added to the board please webbo :)
 
Storming into the lead without even overclocking :)

Rjkoneill, is that CF or what? It must be! :)

EDIT: Just saw Gibbo's post - WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bear in mind this is the maximum we can clock to using Overdrive.

Sliders maxed on GPU and RAM on all three cards.

VOLTAGE IS STOCK!!!!!!

Zero visual corruptions and zero micro stutter in Heaven. :)

I am impressed and can see these cards getting well over 1200MHz core with unlocked OC software. :D

1125MHz - Stock voltage, Auto Fan speed which was silent by the way.

Hence I reckon 1200-1300MHz on stock cooler, these cards are very quick, I think ATI have massively underclocked them, maybe for a possible faster card at a later date or just so their board partners can release some crazy fast OC editions, can't wait to see an MSI Lightning version of a 7970 it will be devastatingly quick. :D

Very nice Gibbo. Wish i could afford one (or two :D)
 
Table updated

The King is dead

Long live the king!

Yeah that's right, Vega was finally knocked off top spot not once but twice as the new AMD HD7970's stole the crown. rjkoneills stay at the top of the pile was short lived due to Gibbo overclocking his cards. I doubt this will be the last we have heard from Rich tho ;).

Gutted that I'm no longer the fastest AMD player but hey-ho. 7990's shouldn't be too far away now :D

Stulid still has a firm grip on the wooden spoon - bless:D
 
Hope this will help someone with a purchasing decision :)

- i7-2600k @ 4.6Ghz
- Catalyst 12.1 Preview drivers + CAP3
- Stock air cooling
- The 6970 cards are actually 6950s flashed to 6970 (clocks and shaders)

6970 Crossfire @ 925/1425

6990 @ 925/1425

6990 + 6970 Trifire @ 925/1425

Some observations
  • I tried Quadfire 6990+6970+6970 but with the cards being right next to eachother in the case the idle temperatures were in the 70-80s. Tried doing a run in Heaven with the fans at 100% but aborted it when temps touched 100.
  • Before aborting the FPS was very skittish, there was visible speed ups and slowdowns, I think it wouldn't have scored much higher than Trifire.
  • The 10.2 FPS was a microstutter anomoly, though it seemed like there were less (none?) microstutters with the 6990 card on its own.
 
The min fps alone means nothing in that benchmark - I've had anything from about 7 fps to 50fps minimums on different runs with exactly the same settings and hardware.
