Old news and most likely cpu bottle necked. The gtx1080ti running on a similar system was only pulling 33900 so only a little faster. It answers little tbh as it's run at 720p and is old hat.

Well, i'm running a Haswell i5 at 4.5Ghz, i didn't see the GPU drop below 96% and that 96/97% was about the 1%, he was running a 6700K, that's a good chunk faster CPU.

I don't see that performance being CPU related.

And to be fair you're running an X58 920 @ 4.0Ghz? with respect i think even i can beat that.
 
Well TBH,as long as AMD can clear the GTX1080,even if they don't get to GTX1080TI level its more than good enough if the price is competitive.

If they get to AIB 1080 speeds on RX Vega on launch it can only go up from there knowing their Driver team.

It'll set smack dab between 1080 and 1080Ti, which is what many were expecting.

We are not talking about my machine. We are talking about Cpu bottlenecks. You don't appear to be on the gtx1070 but a stock gtx1080 was getting 30000, this Gpu 32000 and a gtx1080ti 34000. Rounded up the numbers to make it simple. A gtx1080ti is only scoring 13% more than a gtx1080 so i would say it was bottle necked. There is a chance that the AMD gpu might have been as well. You might well be bottle necked slightly as i have seen gtx1080's on here getting around 32-33k. That leaves you a long way behind. Loads of cores seem to help in this bench looking at the thread.

I am on a GTX 1070, An MSI Quick Silver running at 2038/4408 i think it was.... https://www.overclockers.co.uk/msi-...ddr5-pci-express-graphics-card-gx-339-ms.html

But i take your point :)

Last I checked Joker's 6800K was clocked at 4.3Ghz, so not too shabby; but his chip never went higher without silly voltage.

We'll have to wait until launch as always though.

I could be reading to much into it. His 1080ti might just be a low booster out of the box. Even his overclocked score looks pretty low. This is Kaap's score on Titan P which is pretty much 1080ti clock for clock. It's a good one mind you.

  1. Score 34366, GPU TitanP @2114/2754, GFX Score 44202, Physics Score 20716, Combined Score 20452, CPU 6950X @4.4, Kaapstad, Post No.71 - Link Drivers 375.63

I mean 44000 Graphics score is way higher compared to his 37000. Even this OC gtx1080 gets close but it's crazy clocks :D:D

  1. Score 25879, GPU 1080 @2215/2750, GFX Score 35392, Physics Score 15032, Combined Score 13385, CPU 4930k @4.8, TTomax, Post No.79 - Link Drivers 384.80


Maybe i should stop looking at our threads to much as the scores are really high and not the norm.



Here is a more average boosting Titan P and it's around where i think the 1080ti would be if half decent out of the box.

  1. Score 24771, GPU TitanP @1894/2502, GFX Score 37844, Physics Score 12147, Combined Score 12192, CPU 6700k @4.5, DarrenM343, Post No.72 - Link Drivers 375.63

He's a huge fan of reference cards, so it could be that.
 
had to happen when i started earning.. few years ago had to grovel at my father's feet..life is tough
anyways those miners will undervolt and downclock the vega to something more manageable like 180W
i am proposing a better solution.. amd should wire in some kind of power guzzling circuitry just for the heck of it....which could be only disabled using the same kind of public-private cryptography that bitcoin uses .. released as a firmware or driver update once the mining craze subsides.. common those loafers are eating into my leisure time
