Sorry i'm new to the whole benchmarking thing. Do you think it's my CPU that is holding me back now? It's pretty old and isn't Overclocked.

You want to have over 1500 core and +600 on your memory if you want to be near the top.
Heaven likes memory OC'd.
I used the tweaking program that Zotec provide.
GFX 1677Mhz
Mem 3646Mhz
70c temp
Got me gains of about 100

Your memory needs to be over 4000, but nice core clock there.
Someone on guru3d was saying he has them on his, he's still using the vrm plate and the back plate and no need for a shim either so sounds like they fit really well.
You need to use v5.218.0.1 with certificates bypassed:

I've noticed that the MSI 6G idles at base clock (1139 / 3505) resulting in +60C idle temperatures. Shouldn't the card be downclocking when idle?
The zero fan thing is unattainable with this config.

Yes it should drop the clocks when idle. Anything else utilisation your GPU at all at stock?
At desktop mine is at 135/405MHz, 0.848mv at 44C default fan profile at stock, that is fan speed on 0%.
Check the power management in the control panel, set it to Adaptive.I've noticed that the MSI 6G idles at base clock (1139 / 3505) resulting in +60C idle temperatures. Shouldn't the card be downclocking when idle?

I'm not sure what could be utilising it. Anyone any ideas on how to troubleshoot?

144hz monitor ?
Soldato
Yes. But it's set at 120Hz.
Soldato
Yes. It was at Max performance but I changed and rebooted before posting here.
That setting shouldn't make any difference. It should clock down even when set to maximum performance.
What I've found (running win 8.1) is that running any Metro **** (even in the background) will cause my graphics to run at full clock speeds.
Soldato
Found the culprit: Chrome background app at the taskbar.

Basically yes. Not sure what zotacs service is like, but if you get it from OCUK, if it does go over 28 days then OCUK should step in and offer a solution. The MSI is the quietest and the zotac offers the best out of the box performance, either seem a very good choice and should do 1500 as a 24/7 stable OC.
I've resisted for long enough so far...
