**The OcUK Benchmarks thread!**

Matt, i'm about to playthrough the campaign to get to Going Hunting, i'll show my FPS @stock CF.

How far is Going Hunting btw? Not played the campaign, not much of a single player fanatic.

Its not far tbh mate, i think its the fourth mission.

I'd recommend playing the full campaign (if you can stick it) although it might not be exciting, the levels and graphics at full ultra are beautiful.
 
The whole level @stock 7970 clocks.


Frames Time (ms) Min Max Avg
173630 1109776 101 201 154.956

Near enough the same minimums as 1200/1600, a lot higher averages mind.
Getting closer to Going Hunting mission lol.
 
Sorry again chaps, i was in the process of updating the thread and 12.11 has seemingly turned around and kicked me in the stones. Constant BSOD's even with them removed.

Nice mate, single card still holding its own. :cool:

It might not be the drivers. :p
 
Maybe not, but I've just about ruled everything else out unfortunately, I found some other threads of people having the exact same issue but with a 7970m, some deep rooted ati sys files basically retarding the system - solution is to replace these files with the same files from 12.8.

Memtest86+ is currently ~75% through without any errors.

If it is, its just my luck with AMD drivers tbh, they like to troll me "oooh hey pgi, look at these nice performance increases, do it, do it, do it then after a few days we'll completely cripple your system for you" :p

Final solution is a complete windows re-install, which I don't want to do as I don't have a clue where my windows image is.
 
I see a distinct lack of 7950 benchmarks in the OP.
I'll have a go at BF3, Sleeping Dogs and F1 2012 stock and clocked if it helps :)

Legend thanks, I think there is some 7950 benchmarks yet to be added, but editing such a large post is a PITA on a 720 screen with a trackpad :p

very latest I'll be updating I would think would be wednesday as my bench table + fluid should be with my by then for rebuild.
 
What's wrong with my result LtMatt? (your comment a page back)

Joking or not just keep that kind of stuff out this thread. It's just going to be put people's nose out of place when they've gone to a lot of effort to provide results for comparison.

I know you're probably joking but this isn't really a thread for competitiveness or anything like that. It's supposed to be objective and informative (correct me if I'm wrong pgi) :).

Just a bit of banter rusty thats all, no need for any ones nose to be put out of place.

All that guy said was the difference in results was strange, nothing more.

Fair enough mate but try to keep that for the 3D Mark thread :p.

On the subject of overclocks scaling with increased performance - I see near linear increases in percentage terms.

I don't know why the SC is so low compared to Greg's and mine but whoever infers that there's anything dodgy (i.e. deliberate manipulation) is the antithesis of what we're trying to do with this thread.

Its all good. :)

I got an official warning for the brofist picture because it was a hotlink. :(
 
Yup, I think we can all agree benching BF3 can be an absolute pain as everyone plays the game a little differently, we have an 'as good as' view at the moment.

Any results found to be in the spirit of performance boosting for competition just won't be added, its that simple :)

It looks to me the clear winner of 12.11 being released is 7870 owners, clock for clock with a 7970 they are only hovering around 15fps lower then a 7970 :)

I had a comment deleted in the 'gaming evolved' thread the other day for saying AMD were moving in the right direction, go figure :p
