anything above 1150 just shows little artifacts :mad:

PS. does overclocking the CPU make much, if any difference to your score?

Overclock it and find out, it's against all rules ever made not to overclock a 2500k :D
Should be good for your maximum FPS what in turn will boost your average FPS, by how much i dont know...every little helps.
 
Tried 4GHz with my little Arctic Free pro 7 and ran Prime overnight, showed 2 cores failed at 4am so put it back to stock :D
ATM none of the games I play really use the GPU/CPU's full potential but come summer with all the game sales, that will all change :D

EDIT: It seems that overclocking the CPU doesn't improve your score by much :o

Yes, added :) and how the... did you beat me with lower clocks? :eek:

Nicely done, but i'm not having that :p I will be right back with a new bench... I hope....

PS: artifacts, little spots? is exactly what i'm getting over 1200Mhz, you and I are not alone in that with the 7870 XT's, it seem a lot of them do it at various clocks between 1150 and 1250.

Is this true for other Tahiti GPU's?

Anyway, Kei added to :)
 
:D
Must be due to higher memory clock?
Are you on stock voltage?

Yeah, little artifacts above 1150 for me. What 7870XT do you have? I have the Powercolor Myst :)

You lucky so and so.... :p 1205 / 1600 = 1641, 3 points short, I can't go any higher, it starts snowing on my screen and I don't want to damage it.

Anyway yes, its a Powercolor MYST, I have under volted it to 1.19v, stock was 1.25v and WAY to high.

Paid £174 for it with the NSBR: Farcry3, FC Blood Dragon, Tomb Raider and BioShock Infinite.

Very pleased with it despite not being able to go over 1200Mhz.

 
:D
How did you manage to unlock the voltage?
I just leave mines at stock :o
Your lucky enough to reach 1200MHz :(
Same here, got it at that price too although my total went up to £188 due to delivery cost to NI :o

and just for you

lol.... I will add that in a minute :)

Voltage... I use this app http://www.powercolor.com/Global/download_PowerupTuner.asp

Though it has not Board Power Line so you would need to set that in CCC

And as for MSI AB, well I have asked here to fix it http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=378414

You may also have a different BIOS, I have the old 28 BIOS which has to higher volts, they fixed it with a 32 BIOS, I would be interested to know what your BIOS is and what your default volts are?

So I have a screen from an earlier post that highlights the BIOS number


 
i7 2600k @ 4.3, gpu clock 870/1250 5870 crossfire.

Hopefully getting a 7970 next week so it will be interesting to see the difference between the two.
