* * * POST Your GPU ASIC Quality Thread

Nvidia GTX 580 Twin Frozr II

Cfxag.jpg


Running 880 mhz on the core, 10% overclock on what it came bundled with.
 
I used the render test to load the GPU and then ran the ASIC quality, and it stays the same. Will be interesting to see if Duffman sees any change.

Yeah - no change here either.

I enabled SLI mode (single-screen), and ran Furmark. I got exactly the same results:



Neither of my GTX480s are particularly good clockers, but the one rated at 99.1% is slightly worse than the other (hence the reason it's in the second slot). On its own it can manage 800/1000, but it artifacts in some applications when running alongside the other GPU.

Oh sweet little addition! I was wondering what the hell this could be until I read through everything. How the hell they are quantifying leakage and how accurate it is.. beyond me. I can see DSR numbers going up slightly mind. No one wants a card ****ing energon.

Erm.. could this be adapted in some form for CPUs also?

And I imagine that the smaller fab processes will show a trend of more loss over the coming years, it is supposed to be an area of diminishing returns as the focus gets tighter.

Most interesting feature I have seen in some time, hope they get the bugs out and the metrics can be proven with a large sample base.

gtx 470 overclocked with slight voltage tweak 1037mv



then the card at stock with stock voltage 987mv



so no difference whatsoever, but at least its following the trend of the 400 series having a lower value than the 500's :)



edit: eek i just noticed my is the worst out of all those posted......eek

Hi

Here's mine with a Pallit GTX 580

Not too bad and not a bad clocker, had it up to 950 with the stock cooler but haven't tried it with my new cooler yet.

Hmm is higher actually better? coz mine are 55% and 62% and both my cards overclock like crazy - and the one with the lower number is the better overclocker and runs several degrees cooler than the other under load (despite being the top card).

I'm wondering if it just reads the default VID, more voltage = lower percentage rating?

It might help if people post their core voltages (the bios one not software overvolted) along with the percentage.

Those with the highest ratings appear to be stock cards which are unlikely to be factory overvolted.

Hi,

Gigabyte 480GTX OC = 91.7% which seems high for 400 series in this thread.

Cheers

It doesn't make any difference to my GTX 580, which gets 69.4%

Tried at default voltage of 1.025V and then again at maximum of 1.213V. My card is not a great clocker, as it requires maximum voltage to maintain a stable clock of 972MHz.
