Sleeping Dogs Bench Thread

Ok so ive got to say that this benchmark and game has to be the worst piece of **** release in 5 ****ing years. Best part of the game is the menu music.

Also Kaap: your 290x at 1260/1625 or whatever is the same as my 290x at 1300/1725, you must've gotten a golden performer bro XDDD. That or 1) Windows 7 makes a huge difference. 2) My card is so unstable that its causing performance issues which i HIGHLY doubt. 3) You're doing something to the drivers, be it forcing less AA, Tess or AF. I dont know, and i honestly dont care.

My point is that this bench is crap for comparing cards because there are no restrictions.

Insta uninstall. Will never install it again. Im out.

Bench is fine, Win 8 is crap for benching unless you are running Firestrike.

I won't have Win 8 on any of my PCs.

Scoreboard updated.:)

My OC was plenty.:D

Win 7 is normally better for benching.

Overclocking the VRAM too high can have negative results.

A 4930k clock for clock is more efficient than a 3930k

Last but most important, this is a benching thread, not a thread for arguments.:)
 
Why is Win 8 crap for benching (Heaven/3D Mark etc has/had issues) but it is faster in real gaming?

I could see the fact if the benching tools need updated but some are using the game engines as built in bench in game menu.

Don't really know the technical reasons but if you want to do well on Firestrike and extreme then Win 8 works best. For a lot of other stuff like Heaven 4 Win 7 is better.
