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.

Were you using different BIOS's? GPU-Z will likely detect the default VID it shouldn't matter what is set in Afterburner.
 
The GTX 580 I have in my work pc is 98.6%...

My Asus 480 clocks very well yet gets a low score (60 something IIRC).

I use 24/7 840MHz core on stock volts (rock solid, Furmark inc).

I can run it into the high 850's for benching with no issue.

I've NEVER needed to overvolt it to reach those figures.

This "measure" does NOT correlate to o/c ability.

Anyone got any "science" behind what it means?

It's (supposedly) a quantification of the electrical leakage on the die.

In theory, an otherwise identical chip with less leakage should draw (slightly) less power to achieve the same clockspeed. In principle this should imply that the chip is more efficient, and may be a better clocker.

The results so far in this thread don't seem to support the theory though (mine certainly don't!). So, either the measure isn't very accurate, or other factors are more dominant - like, for example, the quality of thermal connection between the heatsink and the GPU.

Thanks.....given the recent 101% I would question the accuracy of it though....
 
my factory OC gigabyte 560TI 1GB gets 72.3%

I have not overclocked it as it plays all games on high/ultra (I didn't much see the need to be honest).
Although saying that I would have loved to have seen the scores when I was too low on the volts and used a bios flash to up them. It would have been ionteresting to see if they were the same or different. (could help out for future probs maybe?)
