Unigine Heaven 4 benchmark

Hmm... What you suggest seems like the most obvious way. Seems a bit of a waste of coolant though.


As bit of a low-tech alternative, have you tried connecting up some pipes and blowing hard to see if it will expel the water?! Depends how it's all connected up internally though I suppose. May do nothing at all.

The piping inside the chiller is quite large but if I lay it on it's side I may be able to shift it by connecting up some pipes and blowing.:)

Thanks
 
Kaap!!!

Did I see you say you could drop the stock voltage on the Matrix Platinums? If I drop the voltage in Gpu Tweak, say to 1.200v it still shows as running at 1.257v in GPU-Z.

I don't think I have ever tried it, I have always been more interested in going the other way on the volts.

Is there an option to adjust the volts in CCC, I know you can use it to overclock a limited amount.

At the moment I don't have my HD 7970 rig connected up to check.

Edit thinking about it I am pretty sure I did undervolt my cards on one occasion but I can not remember what I used.

I did try to but it just did my desktop. So I saved it. How do I do the in bench screen shot? Sorry for the noob question :)

The easist way is to run FRAPS and use that (F10) to take the screenshot. The other way is press F12 while in the Heaven bench and your screenshot is saved as a .tga file, the problem with this is you need a third party program to open it (like photoshop).
 
I am Jealous of this :p My core is higher? :confused: do you think it's just the CPU holding me back?

The 3770k is a little bit more efficient clock for clock compared to an i7 930 and the higher overclock on the 3770k will help a little bit as well. As you can see from your results though the differences only add up to a few % in real terms. I also lose out when benching with a single card using my 3930k when I am up against a 3770k or 4770k but it does not bother me as I can gain in other areas like mult GPU support.
