Some GTX 1080 SLI benchmarks

Karlision · 28 May 2016 at 10:56

Hello everyone,

I've made this thread because when I was thinking about SLI the hinting previews were driving me insane (there really wasn't a whole lot of benchmarks), so here's a little more benchmarking for those who aren't sure.

But please be aware I am making small tweaks here and there and I'm not doing these from a partition I'm doing them on a system that has clearly a few hindering background processes and I'm having to shut them down each time to gain fps.

Big thanks to everyone who has replied; I've decided to edit the initial post completely in order to make it more articulate.

My rig has an I7 quad core clocked at 4.6ghz; which I can't overclock past 4.6ghz

I'm on air.

I only have a standard SLI bridge that came with my motherboard years a go. Not the new Higher Bandwidth one or even the 400hz one.

I've also OC'd both cards to:

2044 Core +230mhz
5400mhz mem +400mhz

At these speeds they are very stable and haven't crashed yet due to the overclock.

I have these cards in a G1.Sniper 5; inserted into slots 1 and 3.

I did spend a while trying to nail the OC; I suspect at higher voltages there's some issue with my PSU because once it gets to the higher clocks and needs more juice the PC crashes.

Unless stated benchmarks are at 3440x1440.

Ok then, Let's do this!

The Division

Ultra-Ultra settings (everything to the right, even HFTS) Stabilization

Ave: 75 -Quite impressed by that myself.
Typical: 76.0

1440p
Average 94fps.

I Always have had problems in SLI with this game, but I'm surprised that a couple of weeks on SLI is in a much better state. The black screen crash and launching in window mode issue is still there though.

Crysis 3 No AA
100fps Average, (lake where you can kill those 2 soldiers by shooting electric at the water)

Crysis 3 TXAA High
70fps Average

Rise of the Tomb Raider; Very high The in-game benchmark. Direct x 11

For fun 60FPS @ 5958x2494; maybe you are thinking of 3 way x34 surround.

Ave: 101fps

Bioshock infinity Everything maxed, Diffusion on.

Witcher 3
90fps Ave after fast travelling to Hierarch Square in Novigrad Hair on (8) (so close to that 100) Ace that.
99fps hair off.

Far cry primal maxed (in-game benchmark)
72fps Average
52 min
87fps max

Dying Light
120fps - Pretty much killed it.

I'll be doing some more,

I have just about every single game out...Any requests?

Thanks Zefan for updating the thread title; I forgot to put 1080 -doh.

And thank you for reading, Have a nice loooooooooong weekend.

Good luck with your OC's and benchmarks

Am I being blind....can't see what card you're on about

setter · 28 May 2016 at 11:02

I'm assuming you mean 1080 sli benchmarks? If so I can edit the title for you.

tyler_jrb · 28 May 2016 at 11:03

I see its 1080 SLI most likely

Would you do me witcher 3 every setting on and maxed out including hairworks 2560x1440
Been playing a lot lately so would like to see if there is much of a difference over my Ti's as i'd love to max every setting at over 100fps.

Around the first town, even start of the game would be fine. If you havent played the game before/much that is.

Sorted

Nice of you to open it up for requests!

I'll have to do that later as I'd have to shut down about 10 programs to disable sli it tells me.

Sorry you got me there, I don't have Overwatch.

But I've just done Witcher 3 Max details in 2 resolutions, 1440p ave 87 and 3440p Ave 86fps.

It's 66fps so scaling is good.

However I've been running a lot of benchmarks with SLI disabled and I can't get anywhere near the fps of the reviewers.

Gregster · 28 May 2016 at 13:22

Nice one Karlision. How is SLI running? Butter smooth? Any microstutter? Have you got the newer bridge?

I see a bit of micro stutter during the division benchmark every now and again(slight pauses), I don't think the new bridge it out yet otherwise I'd have grabbed one as well.

I'm comparing my single card results to some reviewers and scratching my head at the moment, and those ones on the main Nvidia website are miles away.

VincentHanna · 28 May 2016 at 13:33

You using a 400Mhz or 540Mhz bridge?

Thanks and the microstutter was something I hated. I will keep an eye out for when the new bridges are out and see what you say then. They are supposed to offer more bandwisth and might help with the stutter bit.
